Viscosity of Polycaprolactone Microplastic Dispersions and Nonlinear Kinetic Models of Plastic Fragmentation [PDF]
Viscosimetric experiments and microscopy measurements on microdispersions of polycaprolactone (PCL) plastics showed an unexpected exponential decrease in viscosity over the first 3 months and a plateau for a further 4 months of observations.

Multi-cracks Modeling in Reflective Cracking [PDF]
Reflective cracking is a major concern for engineers facing the problem of road maintenance and rehabilitation. The problem appears due to the presence of cracks in the old pavement layers that propagate into the pavement overlay layer when traffic load passes over the cracks and due to the temperature variation. The stress concentration in the overlay
