Reflectance Spectra of Thermochromic Asphalt Binder: Characterization and Optical Mixing Model
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Asphalt pavement constructed with traditional asphalt binder, which features high solar absorbance, is characterized by high surface temperatures during summer. This causes undesirable performance degradation (i.e., due ...

Formulation and Characterization of Freezing Saturated Soils
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: The writers have derived a unified governing equation for freezing saturated soils. This equation considers the governing mechanisms with respect to individual thermal and hydraulic fields. The writers included coupling ...
Effective and Safe Berming for Pavement Shoulder Maintenance in Cold Regions
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Berming is a common nationwide practice in the United States for pavement shoulder maintenance, especially for states located in cold regions. Competent berming helps to improve the load support capacity of the pavement ...
