Performance Evaluation of Warm Mix Asphalt Mixtures with Recycled Asphalt Pavement

open access: yesPeriodica Polytechnica Civil Engineering, 2016
Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology provides not only the production of asphalt pavement at a lower temperature than the temperature maintained in Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) but also encourages the utilization of Recycled Asphalt Pavement (RAP) and therefore saves energy and nonrenewable resources as well as reduces emissions and fuel consumption.

Comfort in the canopy: How urban treescapes affect human thermal comfort in a temperate climate

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract People living in urban centres are exposed to higher levels of heat stress than those living outside of these areas; this is intensified by the urban heat island effect. Heat stress is a concern for the more vulnerable members of society and can exacerbate many medical conditions; excessive heat increases morbidity and mortality rates.
