Micromechanical modelling of complex shear modulus of crumb rubber modified bitumen

open access: yesMaterials & Design, 2020
Crumb rubber modified bitumen (CRMB) can be considered as a binary composite system where rubber particles are embedded in the bitumen matrix. The bitumen-rubber interaction process (mainly swelling) significantly changes the mechanical properties of ...

Effect of Reinforcement on Early-Age Concrete Temperature Stress: Preliminary Experimental Investigation and Analytical Simulation

open access: yesAdvances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2015
For concrete under short-term loading, effect of reinforcement on concrete crack resistance capability is usually negligible; however, recent research results show that extension of this viewpoint to concrete under long-term loading (temperature ...

Life cycle costs and mid-term performance of a geogrid-stabilized pavement section, an economical and sustainable approach, case study, RN-39 Honduras [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
When we talk about mechanical stabilization of granular layers with geogrids in roadway applications, we often mention that these pavements have a better performance along the time and a reduced cost along the whole life cycle.
