Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) Based on a Geospatial Information System (GIS) [PDF]

Slovak Journal of Civil Engineering, 2020
Abstract A Geospatial Information System (GIS) is a system designed to capture, store, manipulate, analyze, manage, and present spatial or geospatial data. Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) based on the GIS is one of the indirect and efficient methods in identifying areas.

Hybrid deep learning model for predicting failure properties of asphalt binder from fracture surface images

Computer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 16, Page 2248-2268, 30 June 2025.
Abstract Cracking impacts asphalt concrete durability primarily due to cohesive asphalt binder failures. The poker chip test has recently been introduced to better characterize the cracking potential of asphalt binders by fracturing a specimen in a realistic stress state to a thin binder film.

Utilizing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement (RAP) Materials in New Pavements - A Review

International Journal of Thermal and Environmental Engineering, 2017
Recently, prices of asphalt pavement materials have been increasing tremendously, which led to attempts to find alternative cheap materials. In addition, more concerns are directed to preserving natural resources and reducing environmental impacts of using virgin asphalt binders, thus more attention is focused on the use of recycled materials in ...

Light Absorbing Particles Deposited to Snow Cover Across the Upper Colorado River Basin, Colorado, 2013–2016: Interannual Variations From Multiple Natural and Anthropogenic Sources

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 130, Issue 2, 28 January 2025.
Abstract Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) as light‐absorbing particles (LAPs) deposited to snow cover can result in early onset and rapid snow melting, challenging management of downstream water resources. We identified LAPs in 38 snow samples (water years 2013–2016) from the mountainous Upper Colorado River basin by comparing among laboratory ...

Effect of asphalt modified with waste engine oil on the durability properties of hot asphalt mixtures with reclaimed asphalt pavement

Open Engineering
The increased demand for asphalt and other materials involved in the construction of pavement led to an increase in the cost of these materials, which calls for searching for alternatives to virgin materials that can be used to produce asphalt mixtures ...

Gridlock: Infrastructure and Jurisdiction in Eastern Navajo Agency

Antipode, Volume 57, Issue 1, Page 169-192, January 2025.
Abstract This article examines how settler legal orders in Eastern Navajo Agency produce conditions of impasse that defer investments in life sustaining infrastructures, like roads. Focusing on the conjuncture of infrastructural decay and jurisdictional friction amid an oil and gas boom, I elaborate a concept of “gridlock” as a deadly effect of settler
