Download or read book Utilization of Fine Solid Waste in Asphalt Mortar written by Hengji Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Asphalt mortar consists of asphalt and filler and exerts a vital influence on the performance of asphalt materials. Nowadays, plenty of fine solid waste with extremely different physical and chemical properties has been reused in asphalt materials. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of reusing fine solid waste as filler on the performance of asphalt mortar and investigate the possibility of utilizing the fine solid waste in asphalt mortar. Firstly, a scanning electron microscope was used to investigate the microstructure of limestone ore powder, fly ash, diatomite, and red mud. Secondly, the workability, high temperature property, and adhesion ability of asphalt mortars with different filler types and volume ratios have been examined. Thirdly, a critical filler-bitumen ratio range was recommended in view of the aforesaid performances. Finally, analysis of variance was applied to study the relationship between the relative performance of asphalt mortar and physical properties of filler. The results indicated that the Rigden Void of the filler exerts an important influence on the workability and high temperature performance of asphalt mortar, while no significant effect was observed on the elastic and adhesion capacity of the asphalt mortar. Hence, the Rigden Void can be considered a more effective index than the fineness modulus to describe the geometric features of fillers. In addition, asphalt mortar with diatomite and red mud exhibited improvement in the high temperature property and adhesion ability in the case of dry and moist conditions.

It covers a diverse range of topics concerning bituminous materials (bitumen, mastics, mixtures) and road, railway and airport pavement structures, including: recycling, phase and interphase behaviour, cracking and healing, modification and innovative materials, durability and environmental aspects, testing and modelling, multi-scale properties, surface characteristics, structure performance, modelling and design, non-destructive testing, back-analysis, and Life Cycle Assessment. The contributions, which were selected by means of a rigorous international peer-review process, present a wealth of exciting ideas that will open novel research directions and foster new multidisciplinary collaborations.
Download or read book Mechanical Performance of Asphalt Mortar Containing Hydrated Lime and EAFSS at Low and High Temperatures written by Ki Hoon Moon and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper, the possibility of improving the global response of asphalt materials for pavement applications through the use of hydrated lime and Electric Arc-Furnace Steel Slag (EAFSS) was investigated. For this purpose, a set of asphalt mortars was prepared by mixing two different asphalt binders with fine granite aggregate together with hydrated lime or EAFSS at three different percentages. Bending Beam Rheometer (BBR) creep tests and Dynamic Shear Rheometer (DSR) complex modulus tests were performed to evaluate the material response both at low and high temperature. Then, the rheological Huet model was fitted to the BBR creep results for estimating the impact of filler content on the model parameters. It was found that an addition of hydrated lime and EAFSS up to 10% and 5%, respectively, results in satisfactory low-temperature performance with a substantial improvement of the high-temperature behavior.

Download or read book Mechanical Properties of Cement Asphalt Mortar Under Low Temperature Condition written by Jin-feng Wang and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cement asphalt (CA) mortar is a composite material used in the non-ballast slab track of high-speed railways. The behavior of CA mortar under the exterior environmental actions is essential to the safety of high-speed railways. In this article, the low-temperature behavior of CA mortar was investigated. The compressive test of CA mortar at the temperature of -20°C and 0°C was conducted first, and the stress-strain curves and mechanical properties were experimentally determined to analyze the effect of low temperature. Nanomaterials were also included in CA mortar to improve the performance of CA mortar at low temperatures. The results indicated that the descending branch of stress-strain curves of CA mortar is closely related to the temperature, and the compressive strength and elastic modulus of CA mortar were decreased with temperature with different decreasing patterns. Nanomaterials were also found to be favorable to the ductility of CA mortar. Based on the experimental observations, a stress-strain model of CA mortar to describe the performance of CA mortar at low temperatures was finally proposed and verified.

This book was released on 2013-05-26 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The micro- and nano-modification of infrastructure materials and the associated multi-scale characterization and simulation has the potential to open up whole new uses and classes of materials, with wide-ranging implications for society. The use of multi-scale characterization and simulation brings the ability to target changes at the very small scale that predictably effect the bulk behavior of the material and thus allowing for the optimization of material behavior and performance. The International RILEM Symposium on Multi-Scale Modeling and Characterization of Infrastructure Materials (Stockholm, June 10-12, 2013) brought together key researchers from around the world to present their findings and ongoing research in this field in a focused environment with extended discussion times. From asphalt to concrete, from chemistry to mechanics, from nano- to macro-scale: the collection of topics covered by the Symposium represents the width and depth of the currently ongoing efforts of developing more sustainable infrastructure materials. Researchers, practitioners, undergraduates and graduate students engaged in infrastructure materials or multi-scale characterization and modeling efforts can use this book as a comprehensive reference, to learn about the currently ongoing research efforts in this field or as an inspiration for new research ideas to enhance the long-term performance of infrastructure materials from a fundamental perspective. The Symposium was held under the auspices of the RILEM Technical Committee on Nanotechnology-Based Bituminous Materials 231-NBM and the Transport Research Board (TRB) Technical Committee on Characteristics of Asphalt Materials AFK20.
