Microstructural study of Styrene Polyacrylic (SPA) latex modified mortars [PDF]
In this paper, the influence of the styrene polyacrylic (SPA) latex polymer on the microstructural properties of limestone mortars has been studied. For this purpose, five mortars were developed with different dosages of the SPA latex (0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%

Machine Vision–Based Defect Detection and Quantitative Assessment for Pavement Maintenance
An efficient detection and quantification of pavement defects is a significant challenge for intelligent road maintenance; nevertheless, current methodologies exhibit poor accuracy, inadequate lightweight characteristics, and substantial 2D quantification errors. This paper proposes a collection of efficient and lightweight methods.
