Abstract:

This paper deals with the fundamental differences between industrial and paving-grade bituminous binders. The paper is presented in two main sections: 1) a review of the materials’ colloidal structure and the required properties for the industrial and paving applications; 2) a wide range of experimental tests with which the bituminous binders were studied and compared. In this research, a 160/220 industrial bitumen was studied and compared to a paving-grade bitumen with the same penetration and with a lower penetration, 70/100 one. The research consisted of physical, chemical, thermal, microstructural, and rheological analysis to provide a comprehensive understanding of these bituminous binders of diverse applications. Overall, the comparison of the tests’ results indicated that while the asphaltene content and its characteristics have a great influence on the bitumen’s properties, it is not the only fundamental factor. During the study of the chemical structures via Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), it was found that the Peri phase (attributed to the resins) also plays an important role, defining the bitumen’s physical visco-elastic properties. In fact, from a microstructural point of view using AFM a significant difference was notified between the industrial bitumen and the paving-grade ones. These differences allow the paving-grade bitumens to be more elastic and ductile compared to the industrial bitumen.

Abstract:

Graphene is a form of carbon just one atom thick, it has an array of physical properties that promise to revolutionize electronics and other technical fields. Since the first reports of its discovery in 2004, work on graphene has largely stressed understanding the fundamentals of the two-dimensional material over pursuing applications for it. Graphene may become a key enabling material, paving the way for a new generation of high-speed nanoscale electronics with consequences and breakthroughs similar to that of silicon’s in the last few decades. In this paper we present the evolution of this fascinating material, beginning with early observations and moving into the practical applications.

Abstract:

In recent years, there was a great offer of patented additives (enzymes) to the road market as solution to soil stabilization. However, they are many times rejected because there are no theoretical foundation to prove such uses, and also because researches themselves don’t see research opportunities. Anyway, these products has been marketed, and frequently municipalities and states waste resources by choosing for a solution that is not yet well studied. This study aims to present a methodology to solve the problems that affects the use of additives in laboratory, because his use in conventional tests do not shown efficient for these purposes. For this, it was used a portable traffic simulator, easy handling and common in pavement laboratories. It is a standardized equipment, used to assess the effect of compression and the strain characteristics of asphaltic coating layers. It was developed a set with several accessories to mold samples in the shape of tablets (380 x 50 x 10 mm), may be easily adapted to the equipment selected as simulator. The soils used for the production of the tested tablets were lateritic soils from Rio de Janeiro–RJ, and the enzymatic products were imported. A rigorous care was followed in the production of each tablet to ensure equality and, after, compare results each other. These tablets were molded and tested in order to obtain a series of experimental results, comparing the soil treated with enzymes with the soil without any kind of treatment. The study concludes, in principle, that the equipment used and the developed accessories are appropriate for this purpose and that the use of enzymes showed effective for some applications, but lacks more studies, including with the use of other types of soil to prove such effectiveness.

Abstract:

Asphalt is the main material used to finish the internal and external streets of cities. Newly emerged in some countries, the use of colors which is added to the asphalt, it would be possible to use in the paving of this material widely in walking pavements, bicycle paths, parks and open spaces. By analyzing the international experiences as well as practical study, by a survey that was done by Iraqi professors in the specialized field of civil and road engineering, as well as architects, urban designer, and landscapers. Non-proliferation of Colored Asphalt and Street Print applications locally, this application has not been used in Iraq till now. There is a lack of knowledge on this subject, hence, the studies and research need to be carried out on this aspect, and find out their suitability for the local environment. The reasons that it is not used in Iraq are: cost of devices, staff, lack of experience, unavailability of materials, laws - culture- traffic engineering and lack of desire for development. It was found that, it is necessary to legislate engineering laws related to traffic engineering and educate vehicle owners about this new culture.

Abstract:

Abstract • Polymer modification of asphalt binders has become a more accepted method for addressing pavement distresses. The heavier vehicle loads, higher traffic volumes and increased tire pressures have forced user agencies to explore polymer modification for asphalt pavement applications. • The compatibility between the asphalt and polymer depends on many factors. The most significant of these, based on microscopy, are the asphalt crude source, polymer microstructure and the thermal/mechanical history of the polymer-modified asphalt binder. • Classical methods and methods derived specifically for measuring the effect of polymers in the asphalt have poor correlation to mixture performance. The tests also seem to be specific to the different polymers tested. The test conditions make it difficult to extract basic information about the binder's mechanical properties. • Considerable work has been done on the rheology of asphalt and polymer-modified asphalt binders over a wide range of temperatures and rates of loading. Time-temperature superposition has been used to describe the effect of rate of loading on the complex shear modulus (G*) of both polymer modified and unmodified asphalt binders. The addition of polymers has been found to dramatically change the properties at high temperatures or low rates of loading. This has been correlated with varying degrees of success to permanent deformation in the asphalt mixture. • The bending beam rheometer and the direct tension test are ideally suited for measuring the low temperature properties of polymer-modified asphalt binders. Good correlation was found with bending beam results and the fracture temperature of the mixture using the TSRST method. Failure strains, measured for polymer-modified asphalt binders with the direct tension test, were up to ten times greater than that observed for unmodified binders. Polymer-modifiers generally decreased the fracture temperature of the mixture by 6–10°C. • Polymer modifiers for asphalt binders which contain a large percentage of butadiene (50% or greater), exhibit improved low temperature properties. This was observed as a decreased Tg for a polybutadiene modified asphalt measured using dynamic mechanical analysis. Also direct tension results for SB (50% butadiene) -modified asphalt binders showed a marked increase in low temperature failure strains. • The performance-based specifications (SHRP) show good correlation with mixture performance. The best correlations were observed between the binder's Theological properties and the load-associated fatigue and low-temperature thermal cracking resistance. For permanent deformation, it was observed that the aggregate plays a significant role in the resulting rutting. Further testing and field studies are required to validate these laboratory measurements. • Asphalt-rubber mixtures have been shown to have useful properties with respect to distresses observed in asphalt concrete pavements. Most notably a large increase in viscosity and improved low-temperature cracking resistance have been measured. Only a limited body of test results exists and further testing is required to fully understand the contribution of asphalt-rubber to the mixture's performance.

The power broadening observed in the 2nd transition indicates that laser power of less than 0.2 mW is sufficient for saturating this transition. Isotope separation can be successfully expected with application of the 3rd transition due to the narrow width of the 4dnp (or 4dnf, n = 39) autoionization level, paving the way for analysis of trace 90Sr in environmental applications.

Abstract:

Smart hydrogels are inherently biocompatible hydrophilic three-dimensional polymer networks able to undergo a volume-phase transition in the presence of an analyte. By molecular imprinting and/or aptamer-based approaches they can be tailored for a wide range of analytes with high selectivity. In combination with the biocompatibility, this makes hydrogels very promising candidates for biomedical sensor applications. However, to date hydrogels are rarely used for that purpose as the reliable detection of their swelling state remains a challenge. Here we report on a newly developed biocompatible bending sensor platform which can be equipped with almost any smart hydrogel, thereby paving the way for biomedical applications.

Abstract:

This study replaced natural aggregate with a fine aggregate of washed municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash (WMSWIBA) in the production of compressed concrete paving units to increase the applications of WMSWIBA. The cement-aggregate ratios investigated were 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4 and 0.5, and the water-cement ratios were 0.20, 0.25 and 0.30. The results showed that the coefficient of permeability of the compressed concrete paving units was less than 2.66×10-5 cm/sec, the water absorption was 13.55~4.75%, the porosity was 8.05~1.62%, the compressive strength was 12.3~48.5 MPa, the ultrasonic pulse velocity was 1521~3059 m/sec, and the attrition volume loss was 117.7~16.0 cm3/50 cm2. The results suggested that the compressive strength and ultrasonic pulse velocity increase with the cement-aggregate ratio, whereas the attrition loss decreases.

Abstract:

The main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of segregation on fatigue performance of asphalt paving mixtures. Segregation in asphalt concrete pavements occurs when coarse material is concentrated in some areas of the pavement and fine materials in others. Segregation has been one problem that has resulted in poor performance in many pavements. Materials used in the study included gravel, natural sand, and an AC-20 asphalt cement. Aggregates were selected to meet the Indiana Department of Transportation specification for a No. 8 binder with a maximum aggregate size of 1 in. (25 mm). To simulate various levels of coarse and fine segregation, four artificially segregated mixtures were prepared in addition to the control asphalt mixture. Slabs were compacted for the five mixtures using the Purdue linear compactor. These slabs were cut into beams that were used to test for the fatigue properties of the five segregated asphalt concrete mixtures. Limits of fatigue were examined when flexural stiffness was one-third and one-half of the initial stiffness at 200 load applications. Results of the investigation indicated that the fatigue life of segregated asphalt concrete mixtures was significantly affected.

Abstract:

Microbiome research has recently gained centre-stage in both basic science and translational applications, yet researchers often feel that public communication about its potential overpromises. This manuscript aims to share a perspective on how scientists can engage in more open, ethical and transparent communication using an ongoing research project on food systems microbiomes as a case study. Concrete examples of strategically planned communication efforts are outlined, which aim to inspire and empower other researchers. Finally, we conclude with a discussion on the benefits of open and transparent communication from early-on in innovation pathways, mainly increasing trust in scientific processes and thus paving the way to achieving societal milestones such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals and the EU Green Deal.

Abstract:

Earth observations data cubes (EODCs) are a paradigm transforming the way users interact with large spatio-temporal Earth observation (EO) data. It enhances connections between data, applications and users facilitating management, access and use of analysis ready data (ARD). The ambition is allowing users to harness big EO data at a minimum cost and effort. This significant interest is illustrated by various implementations that exist. The novelty of the approach results in different innovative solutions and the lack of commonly agreed definition of EODC. Consequently, their interoperability has been recognized as a major challenge for the global change and Earth system science domains. The objective of this paper is preventing EODC from becoming silos of information; to present how interoperability can be enabled using widely-adopted geospatial standards; and to contribute to the debate of enhanced interoperability of EODC. We demonstrate how standards can be used, profiled and enriched to pave the way to increased interoperability of EODC and can help delivering and leveraging the power of EO data building, efficient discovery, access and processing services.

Abstract:

The Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) spends $2 million annually on reflective crack control treatments; however, the cost-effectiveness of these treatments had not been reliably determined. A recent study evaluated the cost-effectiveness of IDOT reflective crack control System A, which consists of a nonwoven polypropylene paving fabric, placed either in strips longitudinally over lane-widening joints or over the entire pavement (area treatment). The study was limited to projects constructed originally as rigid pavements and subsequently rehabilitated with one or more bituminous overlays. Performance of 52 projects across Illinois was assessed through crack mapping and from distress and serviceability data in IDOT’s condition rating survey database. Comparisons of measured reflective cracking in treated and control sections revealed that System A retarded longitudinal reflective widening crack development, but it did not significantly retard transverse reflective cracking, which agrees with earlier studies. However, both strip and area applications of these fabric treatments appeared to improve overall pavement serviceability, and they were estimated to increase rehabilitation life spans by 1.1 and 3.6 years, respectively. Reduction in life-cycle costs was estimated to be 4.4 and 6.2 percent when placed in medium and large quantities, respectively, and to be at a break-even level for small quantities. However, life-cycle benefits were found to be statistically insignificant. Limited permeability testing of field cores taken on severely distressed transverse joints suggested that waterproofing benefits could exist even after crack reflection. This was consistent with the observation that, although serviceability was generally improved with area treatment, crack reflection was not retarded relative to untreated areas.

Abstract:

The prospect and potentiality of interfacing minds with machines has long captured human imagination. Recent advances in biomedical engineering, computer science, and neuroscience are making brain–computer interfaces a reality, paving the way to restoring and potentially augmenting human physical and mental capabilities. Applications of brain–computer interfaces are being explored in applications as diverse as security, lie detection, alertness monitoring, gaming, education, art, and human cognition augmentation. The present tutorial aims to survey the principal features and challenges of brain–computer interfaces (such as reliable acquisition of brain signals, filtering and processing of the acquired brainwaves, ethical and legal issues related to brain–computer interface (BCI), data privacy, and performance assessment) with special emphasis to biomedical engineering and automation engineering applications. The content of this paper is aimed at students, researchers, and practitioners to glimpse the multifaceted world of brain–computer interfacing.

Abstract:

AbstractQuantum cascade lasers (QCLs) are becoming a key tool for plenty of applications, from the mid-infrared (mid-IR) to the THz range. Progress in related areas, such as the development of ultra-low-loss crystalline microresonators, optical frequency standards, and optical fiber networks for time and frequency dissemination, is paving the way for unprecedented applications in many fields. For most demanding applications, a thorough control of QCLs emission must be achieved. In the last few years, QCLs’ unique spectral features have been unveiled, while multifrequency QCLs have been demonstrated. Ultra-narrow frequency linewidths are necessary for metrological applications, ranging from cold molecules interaction and ultra-high sensitivity spectroscopy to infrared/THz metrology. A review of the present status of research in this field is presented, with a view of perspectives and future applications.

Abstract:

Cold bitumen emulsions (CBE) are currently used worldwide for both non-structural (cold surface treatments) and structural (cold bituminous mixtures) paving applications. Among non-structural applications, bituminous slurry surfacings (BSS) allow to improve surface properties and extend the pavement’s life. However, selection of constituents, mix design, application and quality control procedures for BSS are mostly based on local experience and empirical tests. Thus, the use of BSS is associated to higher technical risks with respect to the use of traditional hot-mix technologies. In this context the RILEM Technical Committee 280-CBE TG2 “Multiphase characterisation of cold bitumen emulsion materials” aims to collect worldwide theoretical knowledge and experiences on BSS and to inspire new standards, specifications and guidelines encompassing the wide set of existing practices. This paper summarizes the first part of the literature review carried out as part of the TC workplan and focuses on the definition, the description and the application method for BSS. National standards, construction specifications and best practice documents from North America, South America, Europe and Australia are analysed and compared.
