Effect of basalt fiber on properties of asphalt and asphalt mixture

Highlights in Science, Engineering and Technology, 2022
Asphalt mixture is the surface material of flexible pavement and semi-rigid pavement. It directly bears the influence of climate conditions and traffic load, and is prone to aging and fatigue damage. Therefore, using reinforcing agent to improve the performance of asphalt mixture is the long-term goal of researchers.This paper aims to study the effect ...

Towards Carbon Neutrality: Advances and Challenges in Architecting Carbon Nanofibers‐Based Photocatalysts

Carbon Neutralization, Volume 5, Issue 4, July 2026.
CNF‐based photocatalysts bridge materials innovation and carbon neutrality by integrating charge regulation, photo‐thermal‐electric synergy effects, and active site engineering. This review outlines synthesis‐structure‐performance relationships to key solar‐driven applications in H2 evolution, CO2 reduction, and environmental remediation, while ...

Analysis of the Compound Impact of Antecedent Dry Spell and Rainstorm Events on Urban Surface Water Quality

Ecohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 5, July/August 2026.
ABSTRACT Urban runoff is a key factor in the deteriorating ecological state of urban water bodies. Longer dry spells followed by heavy rains (cascading event) are thought to aggravate water quality deterioration due to large flushes of accumulated contaminants from urban surfaces into water bodies.

Refined Modeling of Arctic Circumpolar Building Stock Increases Estimated Mid‐Century Permafrost Degradation Damages

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Near‐surface permafrost degradation has the potential to damage infrastructure needed to sustain Arctic communities, but risk assessments remain highly uncertain due to a limited representation of the Arctic circumpolar building stock. With deep learning building footprint detection and building occupancy classification models, we expand the ...

Performance Evaluation of Warm Mix Asphalt Mixtures with Recycled Asphalt Pavement

Periodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2016
Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology provides not only the production of asphalt pavement at a lower temperature than the temperature maintained in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) but also encourages the utilization of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and therefore saves energy and nonrenewable resources as well as reduces emissions and fuel consumption.

Simultaneous Generation of Topographic Models and Manning Roughness Coefficient Maps From Tri‐Stereoscopic Satellite Images: Application to the Huarmey River, Peru

The Photogrammetric Record, Volume 41, Issue 195, July/September 2026.
Tri‐stereoscopic PeruSat‐1 imagery enables the simultaneous generation of 0.70 m‐resolution topography and spatially distributed Manning roughness maps, achieving 0.434 m vertical accuracy. Integrated into HEC‐RAS, these products provide consistent, high‐resolution inputs that improve hydraulic modelling and flood risk assessment in data‐scarce river ...

The Importance of Tire Wear Particles for Atmospheric Ice Nucleation

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 12, 28 June 2026.
Abstract Tire wear particles (TWPs) are prevalent microplastic particles in the atmosphere and pose significant environmental and health risks to humans. Here, we investigated the ice nucleation activity (INA) of TWPs under mixed‐phase cloud conditions (∼−20.0°C < T < −5.0°C) and its changes caused by different environmental exposures, including UV and
