Predicting the frost heaving of bottom ash value for road design
Introduction. Most of the researchers dealing with the use of ash and slag materials (especially in the construction) have focused on the study of their mechanical characteristics or assessment of their impact on the environment.

Meso- and Macro-Mechanical Analysis of the Frost-Heaving Effect of Void Water on Asphalt Pavement
In cold regions, many types of structural damages are caused by the frost heaving of asphalt pavements. Hence, it is important to quantitatively determine the frost-heaving effect of asphalt pavement using a mechanical method to control frost-heaving ...

The costs of extra‐pair behaviours in birds
ABSTRACT Extra‐pair behaviours – reproductive behaviours, including those related to copulation and paternity of offspring, amongst animals outside of a social pair bond – have long intrigued behavioural ecologists, particularly from the female animal's perspective.

Analysis of Effect of Heave Plate on Vertical Motion Performance of Truss Spar Platform
To study the effect of the heave plate on the heaving performance of the Truss Spar platform, based on the establishment of calculation model of the vertical wave load of the Truss Spar platform, the viscous damping of the Truss Spar platform has been ...

Utterance evolution: the road to generative, combinatorial communicators
ABSTRACT Language has long been considered uniquely complex in the animal kingdom; however, animal research over the last decade has begun to challenge some long‐standing premises about exactly which language capacities are uniquely human. The task of resolving why and how complex communication systems evolve, particularly human language, has ...

Is Frost Heaving Killing Your Legumes?
Frost heaving is a serious hazard to the maintenance of legume stands on many of our Iowa soils - especially on level claypan soils. But there are some things you can do to reduce your frost heaving losses.

ABSTRACT Despite growing interest in corporate relocation decisions and sustainability, the existing literature is limited in its consumer‐centric approach. Integrating social exchange theory and construal level theory, this research investigates how consumers perceive sustainability‐driven nearshoring motives (i.e., socio‐economic vs.
