Design Principles for Deployable Fibers Inspired by Hagfish Defense. [PDF]
Hagfish slime deploys fibers from coiled skeins to form an ultra‐dilute, water‐trapping network. Inspired by this mechanism, design principles are established for synthetic skeins, fabricated with tightly coiled fibers that unravel under flow. These synthetic skeins demonstrate deployable fibrous networks, highlighting generalizable strategies for ...

Influence of warm mix additives on the low-temperature behavior of bitumen using the Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) [PDF]
Abstract The mechanical and rheological characteristics of bitumen are crucial for the behavior and durability of the bituminous road layers. A bitumen susceptible to high temperatures can lead to plastic deformation of the bituminous layers, whereas a low temperature susceptible binder can lead to cracking of the bituminous layers.

Characterization of bituminous-sealants utilizing modified bending beam rheometer
Early research showed that the current specification for the selection of crack sealants correlates poorly with field performance. To address this issue and help predict the low temperature properties of hot-poured bituminous sealants, a modified Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) method is utilized. Eight sealants, with a wide range of rheological behaviors,
