The effect of bitumen rheology to the permanent deformation of an asphalt concrete mixture [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Bitumen which functions as a binder in asphalt concrete mixture is also a visco-elastic and thermoplastic material. The characteristics are also influence by the temperature.

A Bridge Transformer Network With Deep Graph Convolution for Hyperspectral Image Classification

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Transformers have been widely applied to hyperspectral image classification, leveraging their self‐attention mechanism for powerful global modelling. However, two key challenges remain as follows: excessive memory and computational costs from calculating correlations between all tokens (especially as image size or spectral bands increase) and ...

Bitumen modified with recycled polyurethane foam for employment in hot mix asphalt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A wide variety of modifiers have been applied to bitumen in order to enhance their properties and performance. Among them, polymers have been mainly used. The aim of this paper is to assess the use of polyurethane foam waste as a bitumen modifier for hot

What can lithics tell us about food production during the transition to farming? Exploring harvesting practices and cultural changes during the neolithic in Southwest Asia: a view from Qminas (north‐western Syria)

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the continuity and change in harvesting practices between the Late Pre‐Pottery Neolithic B (LPPNB) and the Early Pottery Neolithic at Qminas, north‐western Levant, through a traceological analysis of flint sickles. By combining qualitative traceological analysis with quantitative functional approaches, we demonstrate that ...

Exploratory study on bitumen content determination for foamed bitumen mixes based on porosity and indirect tensile strength

open access: yesJournal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering (English ed. Online), 2017
Optimum bitumen content determination is one of the major aims for foamed bitumen mix design. However, mix design procedures for foamed bitumen mixes are still under development.

Effect of filler nature and content on the bituminous mastic behaviour under cyclic loads [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The role of the filler in asphalt mixtures is particularly important because of its influence on mastic behaviour. The filler improves the resistance properties of bitumen against the action of traffic loads and temperature.

Medicine for the Material World

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT It is clear that many of the inorganic materials of antiquity have been used both as medicines for human ills and also as agents in technological processes. This paper speculates that there might have been a stronger link between these two functions in the past, based on the concept of “active agents”—materials that are efficacious at curing ...

Bake Sales to Save Nature: Why Wall Street Conservation Survives

open access: yesDevelopment and Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Academics have spent decades analysing the harms and failures of market and finance‐led biodiversity policy. Yet, even though ‘selling nature to save it’ looks less like the promised green capitalism and more like a decades‐long bake sale in that its efforts are small, piecemeal and rely on copious amounts of cheap capital, the approach ...
