Abstract: This paper investigates the influence of fuel-resistant polymer on the consistency and performance properties of asphalt binder and hot mix asphalt (HMA) mixtures. The study uses wearing course gradation (nominal maximum ...

Abstract: Measurements of traffic noise at the edge of traffic lanes and at distances equivalent to residence locations, and traffic flow variables for nine freeway/arterial/collector roadway locations in Kuwait are presented. The ...

Abstract: Heat transfer enhancement in combined convection around a rotating horizontal cylinder using nanofluids is presented. The transport equations are solved numerically using a second-order finite ...

Abstract: This paper presents the findings of a field and laboratory evaluation on the use of recycled glass blends as unbound pavement base/subbase materials. The parent recycled aggregates studied in this research were fine recycled ...

Abstract: This paper presents the findings of an extensive laboratory investigation on the geotechnical properties of waste excavation rock in pavement subbases. The waste excavation rock used in this study originated from “basalt ...

Abstract: Laboratory and field experiments were undertaken to investigate the possible application of recycled crushed glass blended with crushed basaltic waste rock as a footpath base material. The laboratory experimental program ...

Abstract: This paper presents the results of an analytical study of the performance of a cylindrical journal bearing of finite length as influenced by undulations intentionally produced on the surface. ...

Abstract: Vertical openings in beams and girders are sometimes used to facilitate the passage of essential services such as HVAC, electricity, and sewage. There is a lack of research on the effects of vertical openings on deep ...
