Aftasten/Tantear: A sensorial, coalitional wayfinding among Muslim runners
Feminist Anthropology, EarlyView.Abstract Muslim recreational runners in Muslim‐minority settings that take up running as their preferred form of leisure indicate that they feel they have to navigate a sense of exclusion when running outdoors. This article explores the process of exploration and sensing in public, represented by the Dutch verb aftasten, to investigate the way Muslim ...

Performance Evaluation of Warm Mix Asphalt Mixtures with Recycled Asphalt Pavement
Periodica 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.

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...

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

Evalution of Hot Mix Asphalt Moisture Sensitivity Using the Nottingham Asphalt Test Equipment, July 2005 [PDF]
, 2005 Moisture sensitivity of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) mixtures, generally called stripping, is a major form of distress in asphalt concrete pavement. It is characterized by the loss of adhesive bond between the asphalt binder and the aggregate (a failure of the ...

Caring with forests: Human and more‐than‐human care in forest occupations in Germany
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Drawing on ongoing ethnographic and participatory action research within forest occupations in Germany, this paper develops the concept of ‘caring with forests’ to theorise the mutual, multidimensional relationships of care that emerge between humans and more‐than‐human beings in environmental protest settings.

AI‐Driven Circular Construction Waste Management for Advancing Sustainable Development
Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Construction and demolition waste (C&DW) represents up to 40% of global solid waste, posing a significant barrier to achieving circular economy (CE) objectives and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 11 and SDG 12. However, construction waste management (CWM) systems remain constrained by fragmented data environments ...
