Effect of nano-TiO2 on physical and rheological properties of asphalt cement

Open Engineering
In recent years, nano-modified asphalt has gained significant attraction from researchers in the design of asphalt pavement fields. The recently discovered Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) are among the most exciting and promising nanomaterials ...

Deformed Special Relativity from Asymptotically Safe Gravity

, 2010
By studying the notion of a fundamentally minimal length scale in asymptotically safe gravity we find that a specific version of deformed special relativity (DSR) naturally arises in this approach.

UAVs unveil the role of small scale vegetation structure on wader nest survival

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
In this study, we combine high‐resolution vegetation structural metrics derived from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery with on‐field wader nest survival monitoring. We show that the immediate vegetation height and heterogeneity within a 2‐meter buffer surrounding the clutch of the recorded ground‐nesting wader species positively influenced its ...

A new Doubly Special Relativity theory from a quantum Weyl-Poincare algebra

, 2003
A mass-like quantum Weyl-Poincare algebra is proposed to describe, after the identification of the deformation parameter with the Planck length, a new relativistic theory with two observer-independent scales (or DSR theory).

Structure and functional genes associated with carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, and sulfur cycling processes in periphyton: A comparison between natural and artificial rivers

River, EarlyView.
Network analysis of functional genes among prokaryotes, and eukaryotes in natural and artificial rivers. Abstract Periphyton in aquatic ecosystems plays vital roles in the elemental cycle process and is vulnerable to anthropogenic interference. However, few studies have explored the elemental cycles of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and ...

Revealing Hidden Impact: Social and Solidarity Economy Enterprise Networks and Sustainable Development in Developing Countries

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Social and Solidarity Economy (SSE) offers strong potential for sustainable development in low‐income regions, yet its enterprises often operate with scarce resources, weak monitoring systems, and limited visibility. These constraints hinder both their capacity to demonstrate contributions to sustainable development (SD) and their own ...

Site‐Engineered Corundum‐Structured Aesthetic Composites for Alleviating Heat Accumulation to Mitigate Urban Heat Islands

Small, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban heat islands have become a global issue, as they severely impact several key factors, including elevated energy consumption, increased air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, compromised human health and comfort, and reduced water quality.

Merging Qualitative Design Methods With Design Science

International Journal of Qualitative Methods
Qualitative design is a research approach to explore a central phenomenon by reporting how people see the world. Meanwhile, design science research (DSR) is a problem-solving design paradigm that seeks to enhance human knowledge via developing innovative

Unveiling Regional Disparities: Exploring Cybersecurity Capabilities and Performance Through Systems Theory Approach

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the relationship between cybersecurity capabilities (CCs) and cybersecurity performance (CP) across diverse regional contexts, employing ordinary least squares (OLS) and random forest (RF) regression models. The research highlights how economic, political and cultural factors shape CCs and their impact on CP ...
