This study presents an analytical framework based on the third-order shear deformation
theory (TSDT) to conduct a comprehensive thermo-vibro-acoustic evaluation of a multi …

Timely removal of ice and snow from roads is critical to safe, fast, and uninterrupted
transportation networks in cold regions. Constructing electrically conductive asphalt …

Abstract The Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect and water runoff pose significant challenges in
urban environments. This research aimed to mitigate the UHI effect through the …

To enhance the survival rate of microcapsules during the mixing process of asphalt mixture,
the mechanical behavior of microcapsules during this process was investigated through …

To improve crack propagation issues of bituminous mixtures in an eco-friendly way, steel
slag (SS) and waste ferrite were partially substituted for aggregate and filler in the …

Abstract The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) is the highest altitude plateau in the world,
characterized by strong solar radiation and large diurnal temperature differences and so on …

The melting of permafrost can cause serious damage to road structures. This study prepares
a phase change geotextile (PCG) with heat absorption and waterproofing properties and …

Infrastructures in many countries experience accumulations of snow. On pavements, this
causes unsafe conditions for road users. An alternative technology to snow plowing and de …

Asphalt pavements are prone to cracking in low-temperature environments, and microwave
heating (MH) can heal the cracks effectively. This research mainly investigates the different …

Asphalt pavement surfaces in cold regions are exposed to snow and ice build-ups which
require extensive maintenance for safe driving. An alternative and emerging solution to …
