The objective of this paper is to investigate the microstructure of high-viscosity modified
asphalt binder (HVA) containing high-content polymers and its effect on fatigue …

While there is considerable research regarding the recycling and reuse of aged bitumen in
terms of the evaluation of rheological properties, there is not much fundamental …

Ageing of bitumen leads to significant performance deterioration of asphalt pavements and
leads to material properties that are not conducive to recycling. Aiming to maximise the …

Increasing environmental concerns necessitate the urgent investigation of alternative,
sustainable resources as replacement for fossil fuel-derived bitumen; the primary material …

This study utilized molecular dynamics simulations to assess the rejuvenation of aged
asphalt (AA) with waste soybean oil (WSO) and functionalized SBS polymers, focusing on …

Traffic-related non-exhaust emissions are an important part of air pollution, which can
adversely affect human health when inhaled. Tire-road wear is a significant source of these …

Polyphosphoric acid (PPA) had a significant benefit as a supplemental modifier to improve
the performance of polymer modified asphalt and bio-asphalt due to the presence of network …

As a solid waste, iron tailings urgently need to be addressed to prevent further
environmental and social issues. This study attempted to replace natural limestone filler …

When water interacts with bitumen, the diffusion and cohesion characteristics between the
components of bitumen are negatively impacted. Molecular dynamics simulations were …

In molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, interactions of asphalt-limestone interfaces are
investigated inaccurately because applying of constraint aggregate surfaces simplify some …
