Delay or travel time information? The impact of advanced traveler information systems on drivers’ behavior before freeway work zones
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Peak travel times contribute to congestion formation at freeway work zones. Advanced Traveler Information Systems (ATIS) can inform drivers in real-time about the delays and travel times en-route and can provide information ...
Rheological, Thermal, and Chemical Evaluation of Asphalt Binders Modified Using Crumb Rubber and Warm-Mix Additive
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2022 , Article)
This study evaluates the potential of producing warm-mix asphalt (WMA) using a wax-based additive (Sasobit) in a binder modified using crumb rubber (CR). This binder is formulated for very hot climates and has a grade of ...
A framework for the analysis of damage and recovery characteristics of asphalt mixtures
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2020 , Article)
This study presents two approaches for evaluating damage and recovery characteristics of asphalt mixtures. The first approach focuses on determining damage by extracting recoverable viscoelastic strain that has no damage ...
Magnetic nanoparticles draw solution for forward osmosis: Current status and future challenges in wastewater treatment
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Article)
Forward osmosis is considered as the least energy intensive membrane process since it operates based on the osmotic pressure gradient. However, it is still considered as immature technology mainly due to the elevated cost ...
