In this study, a new test configuration was used to investigate the full range of mixed-mode
I/II fracture behavior of asphalt mixtures using a Short Beam Bending (SBB) specimen with a …

Climate change and limited power supplies receive significant incentives to develop
alternative paving materials and technologies. Reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and …

In this study, two machine-learning algorithms based on the artificial neural network (ANN)
model are proposed to estimate the ultimate compressive strength of square concrete-filled …

This research was conducted to forecast the uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) of rocks
via the random forest, artificial neural network, Gaussian process regression, support vector …

An XY-compliant mechanism is a two-degree of freedom positioner which is considered to
have some distinguishing characteristics in ultra-precision technology. To ensure a long …

This paper focuses on the use of SBS and SBR as the main modifiers to prepare composite
modified asphalt (CMA) binder and CMA mixture for the complex climate of the Qinghai …

Roller-compacted concrete (RCC) is a common material in Road pavements. It has many
advantages, but repairing and maintaining it can be challenging. Self-healing can offer a …

Pavement researchers have sought to develop more environmentally friendly asphalt that
effectively mitigates the consumption of natural resources and maintenance costs. They …

This paper examines the merits of using fibers derived from cigarette butts to enhance the
performance of stone matrix asphalt (SMA). To this end, mechanical and environmental …

The sustainable alternative of blending natural limestone aggregates (NAs) with recycled
