Characterization of Alaskan Hot-Mix Asphalt containing Reclaimed Asphalt Pavement Material [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
In order to properly characterize Alaskan HMA materials containing RAP, this study evaluated properties of 3 asphalt binders typically used in Alaska, PG 52-28, PG 52-40, and PG 58-34, and 11 HMA mixtures containing up to 35% RAP that were either ...

Measurement methods and analysis tools for rail irregularities. A case study for urban tram track [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Rail irregularities, in particular for urban railway infrastructures, are one of the main causes for the generation of noise and vibrations. In addition, repetitive loading may also lead to decay of the structural elements of the rolling stock.

Fish Scales: A Multifunctional Biomaterial from Nature

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Fish scales demonstrate nature's solution to impact protection through overlapping multilayered architecture. This biological design combines mineralized surfaces with collagen networks to achieve both flexibility and fracture resistance. The structural principles inspire advanced protective materials and biomedical implants, where damage tolerance ...

Development of empirical model for the prediction of viscoelastic properties of Nano Hydrated Lime (NHL) modified asphalt binders

open access: yesResults in Materials
This study developed empirical models to forecast the viscoelastic characteristics of asphalt binders enhanced with Nano Hydrated Lime (NHL). The study used AC-60/70 penetration grade bitumen and included NHL at concentrations of 0 %, 1 %, 3 %, 5 %, and ...

Evaluation of road safety installations with a model rutting tester [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials and Structures, 2005
Passively lighted reflector systems are used increasingly for improving pedestrian security. They are glued on the road surface in front of pedestrian crossings and are exposed to any kind of traffic loading. In order to achieve durable and reliable functioning of these reflectors, the mechanical behaviour of the road reflectors themselves, as well as ...

Mapping persistence and change in psychological problems during the transition to adolescence: Adding, subtracting, shifting, and persisting

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Pathways from a psychological problem at baseline to a different problem at follow‐up that are conflated in traditional 2 × 2 calculations of heterotypic change (left panel), but parsed in 4 × 4 analyses (right panel). Note that the same children who are in the shaded cells in the 2 × 2 tables in the left panel are in the shaded cells in the pairwise 4

Neurodevelopmental variations cascading from age 10 months to 3 years leading to attention‐deficit hyperactivity disorder/autism traits at age 9 in a general population

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Associations of neurodevelopmental measures (Z‐scores of gross motor, visual reception, fine motor, receptive language, expressive language) at ages 10, 14, 18, 24, 32, and 40 months with (a) attention‐deficit/hyperactivity disorder trait, (b) autism spectrum disorder trait, (c) developmental coordination disorder trait, and (d) intellectual ...
