Effect of waste cooking oil on the performance of EVA modified asphalt and its mechanism analysis

open access: yesScientific Reports
The balance between the low and high temperature performance of asphalt materials is important to avoid either rutting deformation or low temperature cracking resistance of asphalt pavement.

Inverse Vulcanized Sulfur Polymer Composites From Poultry‐Industry Products and Lignocellulosic Biomass Waste

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 39, October 15, 2026.
This work explores the use of various fillers, including eggshell powder, feather meal, peanut hulls, and sawdust to reinforce a base binder GFS90 (comprised of 90 wt.% sulfur, 5 wt.% chicken fat, and 5 wt.% sunflower oil). The resulting composites showed impressive compressive strengths ranging from 15.3 to 36.2 MPa, making them a potential ...

Optimization of Production Process Parameters and Anti‐Cracking Mechanism of Plant‐Mixed Hot Recycling Asphalt Mixture Through SCB‐DIC Testing

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
Mixed‐level orthogonal experiments and SCB‐DIC testing were conducted to evaluate the effects of six production parameters on the anti‐cracking performance of plant‐mixed hot recycled asphalt mixtures. Cracking evolution was characterized using FI, CIE, and ECR.

Historical Development of Asphalt Content Determination by the Ignition Method [PDF]

open access: yes
This study was conducted to develop a reliable, detailed test procedure for determining asphalt cement (AC) content by the ignition method. The goal was to minimize the overall test time as well as technician time, and to produce a test method with ...

Predicting Pavement Condition Index for Cold‐Region Highways Using an ENET‐XGBoost Coupled Model

open access: yesApplied Research, Volume 5, Issue 5, October 2026.
An ENET–XGBoost framework combines regularized feature selection and nonlinear residual correction for cold‐region pavement prediction. Traffic loading dominates deterioration; the model achieved R2 = 0.969 in back‐calculation, while Markov and scenario analyses indicate a 25% risk of Fair‐or‐below condition in 2026 and PCI of 74.2–77.5 by 2028 ...

IR spectra of modified asphalt and base asphalt.

open access: yes, 2023
In recent years, diatomite has been successfully adopted in asphalt modification to overcome the problems of polymer modified asphalt, because of the advantages in wide sources, low price, and worthy technical characteristics. Although the improvement of

Musculoskeletal (Mal)adaptations in Response to a > 30 000‐km Running Challenge

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 17, Issue 5, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Ultra‐endurance sports are increasingly popular, yet the long‐term physiological consequences of sustained extreme training loads remain poorly understood. In particular, the effects of prolonged ultra‐endurance exercise on skeletal muscle structure, function and molecular remodelling are largely unknown.

Design of Large Stone Asphalt Mixes to Minimize Rutting [PDF]

open access: yes
Rutting of heavy duty asphalt pavements has been increasingly experienced in recent years. This phenomenon is primarily resulting from high tire pressures and increased wheel loads.
