Dynamic modulus is a key evaluation index of the high-modulus asphalt mixture, but it relatively difficult to test and collect its data. The purpose achieve accurate prediction dynamic mixture further optimize design process mixture. Five high-temperature performance indexes were selected. correlation between above five was analyzed. On this basis, models based on small sample data established ...

in this research, the influence of adding micro- and nano- sized calcium carbonate powders to nylon-66 was investigated. mechanical properties of micro and nano- composites, including tensile strength, elongation, and young’s modulus, before and after ageing, were determined and analyzed. for this purpose, micro- and nano-sized caco3 particles were used as fillers to prepare micro-composites (c...

shear modulus and damping ratio are important input parameters in dynamic analysis. a series of resonant column tests was carried out on pure clays and sand-clay mixtures prepared at different densities to investigate the effects of aggregate content, confining stress, void ratio and clay plasticity on the maximum shear modulus and minimum damping ratio. test results revealed an increase in the...

blown bitumen (110/10) was mixed with heavy vacuum slops (h.v.s), 60/70 penetration grade bitumen and recycled isotactic polypropylene (ipp) at different levels. the resulting resins were used to impregnate non-woven poly(ethylene terephthalate) fibers to form composites. the modulus and penetration grade of the resulting bituminous resins were determined. it was found that these bituminous res...

A new three-dimensional unit cell model has been developed for modeling three constituent phases including inclusion, interphase and matrix. The total elastic modulus of nano-composite is evaluated.  Numerical results are in good agreement with the previous proposed theoretical modeling. Higher matrix and inclusion elastic modulus both can dramatically influence the total elastic modulus.

handling of endodontic sealers is greatly dependent on their elasticity and flow ability. we compared the viscoelastic properties of three root canal sealers.ah plus (dentsply, de trey, konstanz, germany), endofill (dentsply hero, petrópolis, rio de janeiro, brazil) and ah26 (dentsply, de trey, konstanz, germany) were mixed according to the manufacturers' instructions. the resulted pastes were ...
