Abstract: Experimental studies of dropwise condensation have generally indicated that higher heat transfer coefficients correspond to smaller mean sizes for droplets growing through condensation on the surface. Recent investigations ...

Abstract: Adequate compaction of asphalt pavements during their construction is essential to the long-term performance of the pavement. Current quality control techniques determine the quality at a limited number of points and are ...

Abstract: Intelligent compaction (IC) of asphalt pavements is an emerging area of research that attempts to extend mechanistic-empirical design principles to the construction of asphalt pavements. These techniques monitor the ...

Abstract: There are several factors that influence the quality of an asphalt pavement. While pavement design, material selection, and environmental parameters play a big role in the quality and useful life of the pavement, adequate ...
