Abstract: The performance of porous asphalt concrete (PAC) is dependent on its microscopic void features, which may refer to content and distribution of its constituents. In other words, PAC mixtures with identical air voids may ...

Abstract: With reference to the study of the robotic system for ophthalmology microsurgery, a robotic system was presented with the key mechanism design and control subsystem scheme considering the procedures and features of retinal ...

Abstract: The remote center of motion (RCM) mechanism is an important component of a minimally invasive surgery (MIS) robot. The feature of the RCM mechanism is that the output link can rotate around a fixed point and translate along ...

Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to compare the dynamic viscosity and steady viscosity characteristics of high-viscosity modified asphalt binder (HVA) and to analyze the applicability of the Cox–Merz rule as well as of the ...

Abstract: Styrene-butadiene-styrene-modified asphalt binder (SBSMA), crumb rubber–modified asphalt binder (CRMA), and high-viscosity-modified asphalt binder (HVMA) have been widely used in porous asphalt concrete. However, the aging ...

Abstract: In recent years, asphalt pavements have been widely used due to their desirable properties: safety, smoothness, and durability. However, the aging of bitumen during its service period is inevitable, so the performance of ...
