The rapid increase in energy demand has resulted in more dependence on fossil fuels,
which leads to higher CO2 emissions every year. To overcome this problem, shifting from …

Asphalt mixtures behave as linear viscoelastic materials when subjected to loading
conditions that are similar to pavement operating conditions. Thus, this study proposed a …

This study developed a type of flexible Fiber Bragg Grating (FBG) sensor and proposed
appropriate calibration methods. Strain transfer theory-based calculations were utilized to …

Roadways founded on expansive soils are notorious for incurring damage in the months
and years after construction. Soil swelling and shrinking manifest at the road surface as …

Capacitance-based self-sensing is shown for the first time on a pitch-based material, which
serves as model asphalt. No functional component is involved. Compressive stress (5–1720 …

In this study acidic sludge was refined by a novel method that involves neutralization and
extraction of organic compound by a waste solvent. Study on refined sludge indicated that …

The natural frequency is critical for evaluating the integrity of bridge piers. However, the
natural frequency of bridge piers can vary with the support condition of the ground. The aim …

This study concerns the impact of the moving loads LM1 on geotechnical structures like
embankments and retaining structures related to cut and fill slope problem for road …

Researchers are investigating alternate filler choices in Stone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) mixtures
to find sustainable and environmentally friendly materials for road construction. SMA is …

Most distresses in asphalt pavements are directly related to fracture. Thus, it becomes clear
that identifying and characterising fracture properties of asphalt mixtures are critical steps …
