Abstract: The indoor and outdoor aging behaviors of a heat-reflective coating were studied regarding the problems derived from aging and reduced cooling effects. A one-year natural exposure test of the coating on a roof and on ...

Abstract: Output of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) can be classified as several different types of residues, of which bottom ash is a primary by-product. Utilization possibilities other than landfilling the incineration ...

Abstract: The performance of an asphalt binder is closely related to its microstructure. Understanding the properties of asphalt binders at the nano/microscale may help to improve knowledge of their macroperformance. The emergence ...

Abstract: As the most critical part of a hydropower station, reversible pump–turbines (RPTs) are facing the trend of high parameterization (e.g., high head and high rotation speed) with the rapid development of hydropower, which ...

Abstract: The indoor and outdoor aging behaviors of a heat-reflective coating were studied regarding the problems derived from aging and reduced cooling effects. A one-year natural exposure test of the coating on a roof and on ...

Abstract: Extensive experimental and theoretical studies of large rupture strain (LRS) fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP)-confined concrete columns have been conducted based on small-scale columns, mostly with a diameter of 150 mm. This ...
