Comparative analysis of empirical decomposition algorithms in predicting tire-pavement friction from asphalt surface textures: a Hilbert–Huang transform (HHT) analysis

Discover Civil Engineering
The frictional properties of pavement are contingent on its surface texture, which consists of multiple scales that each contribute differently to friction generation at the tire-surface interface.

Evaluation of a Newly Constructed Freeway Asphalt Pavement Surface Unevenness

Revista Ingeniería de Construcción
It is not rare for newly constructed asphalt pavement to have an uneven surface; consequently, conducting regularity tests of asphalt pavement surface evaluates rider comfort and a level of construction.

Deep Spatially Varying Coefficient Model for Interpolation of Non‐Stationary Meteorological Data

Environmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 6, September 2026.
ABSTRACT In spatial statistics, the spatially varying coefficient model (SVCM) is widely applied in the analysis and interpolation of non‐stationary spatial data. By incorporating spatially varying coefficients, the model can capture spatial heterogeneity and provide an attractive interpretation of response‐covariate associations.

Native Community Resistance Mediates Plant Invasion Responses to Global Change Along Mediterranean Mountain Roads

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 32, Issue 9, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Climate warming, human modification and global connectivity are eroding the abiotic barriers (i.e., climatic filtering and low propagule pressure) that have traditionally limited the spread of non‐native species in mountain ecosystems. Meanwhile, these global changes are also reshaping native plant communities, potentially weakening their ...

Recycling of Asphalt Pavements with Asphalt Rubber

, 2008
Pavement recycling has been an important rehabilitation technique to deal with reclaimed materials from old pavements which are usually sent to landfills. The application of this technique contributes to: i) the accomplishment of the requirements defined by the European legislation for the amount of material sent to landfills; ii) the reduction in the ...

A Multiple Soil Threats Assessment for Europe by 2050

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 37, Issue 14, Page 9937-9952, 30 August 2026.
ABSTRACT European soils are exposed to multiple interacting soil threats (STs), challenging the European Commission's objective of restoring healthy soils by 2050. This study provides the first integrated EU‐scale projection of four major soil threats—soil compaction, soil organic carbon loss, soil erosion and soil sealing—under two IPCC climate ...

Equivalent Subsurface Thermal Characteristics for Heterogeneous Surfaces

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 15, 16 August 2026.
Abstract Land‐surface and atmospheric models often represent subgrid‐scale variability using a single set of effective properties. Estimating these equivalent properties is critical for predicting land‐atmosphere exchanges accurately, but challenging when materials with distinct radiative and thermal characteristics coexist, particularly in urban ...
