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
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

Nonlinear Vibration Characteristic Analysis of Electric Vehicle–Road Coupling System
ABSTRACT In‐wheel motor drive is the developing direction of automobile electrification and intelligence. However, the increased unsprung mass in in‐wheel motor‐driven electric vehicles (IWMEVs) leads to higher dynamic tire loads, thereby intensifying vehicle–road coupling interactions. To address this problem, an 11‐degree‐of‐freedom nonlinear dynamic

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.

Recycling of Asphalt Pavements with Asphalt Rubber
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 ...

Pure Mobility: Rolling Resistance in Future Vehicle‐Road Systems
ABSTRACT Today's road traffic is characterized by an enormous effort in the consumption of space, energy, and resources. The initiative “Pure Mobiliy” intends to develop a mobility system in addition to public transport based on small, autonomously driving electric vehicles in combination with innovative roads made of water‐permeable, sustainable, and ...

Self-healing Asphalt for Road Pavements
This paper presents a unique self-healing system for asphalt pavement which employs compartmented calcium-alginate fibres encapsulating an asphalt binder healing agent (rejuvenator). This system presents a novel method of incorporating rejuvenators into asphalt pavement mixtures.

Can You See Us Now? Negotiating Indigenous Citizenship at a Road Blockade in Argentinean Chaco
Short Abstract This paper explores the spatial dimension of Indigenous citizenship by examining how it is experienced, negotiated and enacted during a road blockade in the Argentinean Chaco. Stressing the political dimension of infrastructure, the paper highlights the blockade as a critical site and moment for observing the framing and reframing of ...
