Vigorous and continued efforts by researchers engineers have contributed towards maintaining environmental sustainability through the utilization of waste materials in civil engineering applications as an alternative to natural sources. In this study, granite aggregates asphaltic mixes were replaced electric arc furnace (EAF) steel slag with different proportions identify best combination terms...

For the French ancient rail track, owing to effect of traffic loadings, an interlayer was naturally created due interpenetration ballast grains and subgrade fine soil. Under rainfall/evaporation, water content soil can vary, affecting its dynamic properties such as resilient modulus damping ratio. In order investigate on ratio soil, a series cyclic triaxial tests were carried out, following mul...

To further reveal the road performance and noise reduction of open-graded friction course (OGFC), crumb rubber prepared by adding waste tires were considered, requirements material put forward. avoid influence particle swelling on aggregate, special gradation mix proportion OGFC mixture designed, size 4.75 mm was proposed as control size. The test results show that aggregate forms a good embedd...

the rheological properties of four different kuwaiti crude oils in the presence of polyacrylamide (paa) were investigated. paa was varied at three different concentrations of 25, 50, and 75 ppm to study the viscoelastic properties in the untreated samples. four different temperatures (25, 30, 35, and 40 °c) were used to evaluate different viscoelastic parameters of the treated and untreated kuw...

Compacted soils used as formation layers of railways and roads continuously undergo water content suction changes due to seasonal variations. Such variations, together with the impact cyclic traffic-induced loads, can alter hydro-mechanical behaviour soil, which in turn affects performance superstructure. This study investigates hydraulic cycles on coupled retention response a compacted soil. S...

Warm Mix Asphalt (WMA) is a set of technologies that uses additives to reduce binder viscosity and increase mixture workability, which provides complete coating aggregates at lower temperatures around 100 °C 130 °C. Organic wax or Sasobit one the can be used for this purpose. It reduces melting point wax, allows production asphalt mixes temperatures. This attempt proposes new relationships elas...

In the current competitive and dynamic market, customer demands and interests are changing continuously, and hence, risk of disruption in the supply chain is also increasing. To be successful in this scenario, supply chain of a firm should be resilient. Most of the firms realize that with a specific end goal to develop a resilient supply chain, there is a need for assessment of performance. The...

The paper focuses on the improvement of clayey soil (A-6) with locally available and cheap modifiers, in terms stiffness behavior weak subgrade for flexible pavement. modifiers used include lime (hydrated), marble waste sand. specimens underwent triaxial testing Clegg impact testing. Triaxial involved assessment resilient modulus (MR) using Impact Hammer. According to study, proved be most infl...

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of silicone remover on tensile bond strength of eight silicone-resilient denture liners to a denture base resin. Durability of bond strength of resilient denture liner to denture base resin was also examined by thermal cycling test. Materials and Methods: Eight commercial silicone resilient denture liners were used. The specimens...
