Strain Gradient–Based Thermomechanical Nonlinear Stability Behavior of Geometrically Imperfect Porous Functionally Graded Nanoplates
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper studied the thermomechanical nonlinear stability analysis of simply supported geometrically imperfect porous functionally graded nanoplates (FG-nPs) resting on an elastic medium. The inverse trigonometric shear ...
Two-Step Optimization Model for Evaluating the Saturation Flow Rate under the Impact of Small-Sized Vehicles
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Saturation flow rate (SFR) is a vital input for an intersection’s performance evaluation and development of signal control strategy. Several models have been framed under prevailing traffic conditions for homogeneous and ...
Identifying the Suitability of Warm Mix Asphalt for Reducing the Production Temperatures of Crumb Rubber–Modified Asphalt Mixtures: Economic and Environmental Perspective
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The higher production temperature and greenhouse gas emissions restrain the use of crumb rubber (CR) obtained from recycled tires in pavement construction. Warm mix asphalt (WMA) technology is a sustainable solution for ...
Development of the Criteria for Optimum Filler–Binder Ratio in an Asphalt Mix Based on Fatigue Performance
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This research aims to propose a framework for selecting the optimum filler–binder (F-B) ratio in an asphalt mixture, with the objective to achieve desired fatigue performance at the lowest possible binder content. The ...
Understanding the Influence of Design Factors and Volumetrics on Moisture Susceptibility of Hot-Mix Asphalt
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This study evaluated the individual and cumulative impact of different design factors on moisture damage of hot-mix asphalt (HMA) using the modified Lottman test. This study considered five different types of design aggregate ...
Modeling of Complex Reductive Biodegradation Kinetics of Recalcitrant Organic Contaminants
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Analysis and Comparison of Asphalt Mixes Containing Waste Fillers Using a Novel Ranking Methodology
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: This study compared the performance of asphalt concrete mixes containing five different wastes fillers [carbide lime (CL), copper tailings (CT), glass powder (GP), red mud (RM), and rice straw ash (RSA)] to a conventional ...
