Effect of Aging on Viscoelastic Properties of Asphalt Mixtures
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2019 , Article)
This study presents a comprehensive laboratory evaluation and statistical analysis of the effect of aging on the viscoelastic properties of asphalt mixtures. Asphalt mixtures were subjected to different short- and long-term ...
Combined influence of temperature and flow rate of feeds on the performance of forward osmosis
(
Elsevier
, 2016 , Article)
The effect of the membrane orientation, feeds flow rate, feeds temperature, and combining effect of both temperature and flow rate on the membrane flux was investigated in order to enhance the performance of forward osmosis ...
Comprehensive evaluation of long-term aging of asphalt mixtures in hot climatic condition
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2018 , Article)
Aging is an inevitable phenomenon in hot mix asphalt production and during in-service period of flexible pavement operation. This paper presents an experimental evaluation of long-term aging of asphalt mixtures in Qatar. ...
Comparative evaluation of fatigue resistance of warm fine aggregate asphalt mixtures
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Fatigue cracking is one of the crucial distresses in asphalt pavements that affect its service life and rehabilitation process. The resistance of asphalt mixtures to fatigue failure in the laboratory experiments is influenced ...
Severity analysis of red-light-running-related crashes using structural equation modeling
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
The study investigated factors affecting the severity of red-light-running (RLR) -related crashes by means of crash records from the State of Florida (US). Previous studies have attempted to incorporate road, driver, and ...
A hybrid electro-coagulation/forward osmosis system for treatment of produced water
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Oil and gas exploration produce large volumes highly contaminated produced water (PW) which exhibits a major environmental challenge. This work investigates the application of a novel hybrid system by combining electro-coagulation ...
Pore-scale mechanisms associated with permeability impairment in porous media: A micromodel study
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Recently, researchers are attracted towards the gas production from hydrate bearing sediments considering its abundance in marine continental margins and persisting demand for alternate energy. Dissociation of hydrate into ...
Fouling suppression in submerged membrane bioreactors by obstacle dielectrophoresis
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Submerged membrane bioreactor (MBR) is currently believed to be an efficient biological treatment for reusing and recovering wastewater to extenuate the ever increasing water scarcity crisis. To mitigate the main problem, ...
A new indirect tensile testing setup to determine stiffness properties of lightly stabilised granular materials
(
Australian Geomechanics Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a new indirect diametral tensile (IDT) testing setup for determining the stiffness modulus and Poisson's ratio for the characterisation of lightly stabilized granular base materials required for pavement ...
A new thermal integrity method for pile anomaly detection
(
DEStech Publications Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Anomaly detection is a hot topic in pile construction which is a complex one due to the intrinsic nature of underground structures, such as limited accessibility, large depth and complex soil profile. Several traditional ...
