Use of recycled asphalt pavements (RA) in pavement rehabilitation processes is continuously growing as recycling techniques, such as cold recycling (CR), are being utilized in increasing magnitude. The focus of this paper is on developing a state of the art and state of the practice summary of processes used for classification of RA. A variety of topics were explored through an exhaustive liter...

Gas distribution system is a production complex, which part of the gas supply and consists organizational economically interconnected facilities designed to organize directly consumers. On national basis formed by about 67.0 thousand km external pipelines, 28.0 are underground steel pipelines. As potentially hazardous objects, pipelines subject higher requirements for corrosion protection. rule...

In this study, an attempt was made to improve the packing density of calcium phosphate (CaP) coating on a magnesium alloy by tailoring the coating solution for enhanced degradation resistance of the alloy for implant applications. An organic solvent, ethanol, was added to the coating solution to decrease the conductivity of the coating solution so that hydrogen bubble formation/bursting reduces...

in this research, tribological characteristics of ni-p electroless coating and double-layered ni-p/ni-b electroless coating were studied. for this purpose, ni-p electroless coating with 25 μm thickness was initially applied to the surface of steel ck45 samples; then, a double-layered ni-p/ni-b electroless coating, including inner layer of ni-p with 15 μm thickness and outer layer of ni-b with 1...

The phenomenon of icing, and the derived processes for its mitigation, are great importance in many applications, ranging from transportation energy to food refrigeration. This has been studied mostly with respect manifestation on rigid, homogeneous surfaces, soft materials being topic more recent investigations. Although, icing often occurs substrates that chemically mechanically heterogeneous...
