Effects of RAP Pretreatment Methods on Durability and Carbon Reduction in High-Proportion Plant-Produced Hot-Recycled Asphalt Mixtures

Zhongwai Gonglu
To address the poor performance of plant-produced hot recycled asphalt mixtures with high recycled asphalt pavement (RAP) content, this study employed a refined separation technology to treat RAP materials.

Evaluation of Sustainable Urban Design With a Focus on Spatial Organization and Climatic Analysis

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The urban heat island (UHI) effect increases with the growth of cities and population. This situation triggers global climate change, and cities are negatively affected by this situation. In this study, five provinces (Antalya, Gaziantep, Bursa, Kayseri, and Erzurum) located in different climate zones in Turkey were selected as samples ...

Investigation of indoor and field tests on asphalt pavement with inverted asphalt layers based on the vertical vibration compaction method

Journal of Road Engineering
An inverted asphalt pavement is created by reversing the sequence of the lower and middle layers in a conventional asphalt pavement. The lower layer is composed of material with larger particle size and lower asphalt content, which improves its ability ...

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

Effects of complex soundscapes on the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula in isolated green spaces in Tokyo

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Urban green spaces experience a mix of natural and anthropogenic noises, which could disrupt the vocal communication of several species. This study investigated how such complex soundscapes affect the occurrence of Anaxipha pallidula, which communicates through calls, focusing on both sound level and quality.

ALL POSSIBLE PASTS: Heritage, Simulacra, and Gentrification in Seoul

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban heritage scholars have often criticized simulacra as ‘bad’ copies that degrade the ‘good’ model of the past through commercialization and gentrification. This article challenges such Platonic dichotomies of good/bad and model/copy, arguing that the binary of good heritage and bad simulacra is flawed because heritage is itself actualized ...

Review of regulation techniques of asphalt pavement high temperature for climate change adaptation

Journal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience, 2022
Asphalt pavement is vulnerable to the temperature rising and extremely high-temperature weather caused by climate change. The regulation techniques of asphalt pavement high temperature have become a growing concern to adapt to climate change.

Influence of Polymer and Rubber Modification on Fatigue Crack Propagation in Asphalt Mixtures: A Cyclic SCB and Paris Law Investigation

Fatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fatigue cracking is a major distress limiting asphalt pavement service life, and Paris law–based fracture mechanics offers a more mechanistic understanding than conventional fatigue testing. However, systematic characterization across diverse modifiers, dosages, notch depths, and temperatures remains limited.

Ecological and Management Drivers of Population Fluctuations in the Goitered Gazelle (Gazella subgutturosa) Across Iran

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
We analysed 16 years of census data from 27 protected areas across Iran to identify factors associated with population growth in the goitered gazelle (Gazella subgutturosa). Population dynamics were associated primarily with protection history and management characteristics and with water availability in surrounding landscapes, while broad‐scale ...
