Mechanistic modelling of weak interlayers in flexible and semi-flexible road pavements: Part 2
This paper (Part 2 of a two-part set of papers) discusses models and illustrates the adverse effects of weak layers, interlayers, laminations and/or weak interfaces in flexible and semi-flexible pavements, also incorporating lightly cemented layers.

Two‐Way Shape Memory Polymer Composite Gripper for Adaptive Robotic Applications
A two‐way shape memory polymer (SMP) composite is developed with intrinsic shape‐changing capability driven solely by temperature, eliminating external actuation loads. Embedding the SMP in a low‐stiffness elastomeric matrix enabled reversible transformations during heating and cooling cycles.

A Study of the Semi-Perpetual Pavement Performance in Queensland
This paper presents the performance characteristics of a long-term pavement performance (LTPP) site with pavement constructed with semi perpetual pavements. The design life of the perpetual pavement is normally specified as 40 years. To achieve a 40 year

Skin‐Like Tri‐Modal Sensors Based on Soft Piezoelectric and Ionic Composites
Inspired by the multimodal perception of human skin, a soft, skin‐like tri‐modal sensor is presented. The device incorporates an ionically conductive, piezoelectric, elastic composite as its active layer, enabling independent detection of temperature, static strain, and dynamic strain within a single two‐terminal architecture.

An Automated Method for Pavement Surface Distress Evaluation [PDF]
Evaluation of surface distress is an important aspect of pavement management. The most common practice to assess surface distress is to develop a pavement condition index (PCI), with ASTM-PCI being the most widely used in evaluating flexible pavements ...

Early life field performance of innovative sustainable semi-flexible pavements
Semi-flexible pavements in heavy loads areas are recommended to guarantee good performance and safety. They are usually constructed by placing a wearing layer of grouted macadam, a composite material consisting of a porous Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) skeleton grouted with a cementitious matrix.
