Moisture damage has been reported as one of the main forms of distress in asphalt mixtures
since the 1900s. The bond between asphalt aggregate constituents fails in the presence of …

Preformulation measurements are used to estimate the fraction absorbed in vivo for orally
administered compounds and thereby allow an early evaluation of the need for enabling …

Adhesive bonding is a key joining technology in many industrial sectors including the
automotive and aerospace industries, biomedical applications, and microelectronics …

Process parameters of selective laser melting affect the response of a powder–substrate
