Plastic recycling: Challenges and opportunities

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 103, Issue 6, Page 2462-2498, June 2025.
Abstract This review offers an in‐depth exploration of current strategies for recycling plastic waste, focusing on mechanical, chemical, and energy recovery methods. It situates these strategies within the context of modern practices by examining ongoing research methodologies and specific case studies related to various types of plastic waste.

Interfacial bonding mechanisms and physicochemical evolution at the reclaimed asphalt pavement aggregates-cement interface

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment
The performance of cement-stabilized reclaimed asphalt pavement (CSRAP) mixtures is closely related to the structural evolution and bonding behavior of the interfacial transition zone (ITZ).

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

open access: yesComputer-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.

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

open access: yesJournal 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 ...

Gridlock: Infrastructure and Jurisdiction in Eastern Navajo Agency

open access: yesAntipode, 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

Gradient boosting decision trees to study laboratory and field performance in pavement management

open access: yesComputer-Aided Civil and Infrastructure Engineering, Volume 40, Issue 1, Page 3-32, 2 January 2025.
Abstract Inconsistencies between performance data from laboratory‐prepared and field samples have been widely reported. These inconsistencies often result in inaccurate condition prediction, which leads to inefficient maintenance planning. Traditional pavement management systems (PMS) do not have the appropriate means (e.g., mechanistic solutions ...

Effects of SBS and Polyester Fiber on Performance Characteristics of Hot Recycled Asphalt Mixtures With High RAP Content

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
The decrease in the viscoelasticity of the binder and the failure of the aggregate gradation are the main reasons for the poor crack resistance and stability of hot recycled asphalt mixtures with high reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) materials content.
