In this work, we numerically investigate the radiative properties of metamaterial nanostructures made two-dimensional tungsten gratings on a thin dielectric spacer and an opaque film from UV to mid-infrared region as potential selective solar absorbers. The absorber with single-sized patches exhibits high absorptance in visible near-infrared due several mechanisms such surface plasmon polaritons, magnetic intrinsic bandgap absorption tungsten. Geometric effects resonance wavelengths spectra...
This study, part of the NCHRP 9–45 Project, analyzed effect mineral filler properties on asphalt mastic and rutting potential asphaltic mixture. The were characterized by four tests: Rigden voids (RV), fineness modulus (FM), calcium oxide (CaO) content, methylene blue value. rheological binder with use apparent viscosity multiple stress creep recovery tests. Dynamic flow number tests conducted to examine mixture potential. tested mixtures included several variables: types, including virgin...
A three-dimensional (3-D) finite element (FE) model was developed to predict pavement responses vehicular loading. The incorporates measured tire-pavement contact stresses, continuous moving wheel loading, and hot-mix asphalt (HMA) viscoelastic characteristics. fine-tuned using implicit-dynamic analysis validated response from accelerated Two tire configurations (dual-tire assembly wide-base 455 tire) three full-depth flexible designs (HMA 152 mm, 254 420 mm) were used in both FE modeling...
This study developed an atomistic simulation framework based on the classical molecular dynamics (MD) method to moisture-induced damage at asphalt-aggregate interface. The interface adhesion strength of asphalt–quartz system was predicted using MD for first time. stress-separation curve under tension that obtained from resembles failure behaviour measured pull-off conducted macroscopic scale. results show presence moisture significantly reduces strength. process is affected by chemical...
This study focused on the property characterization of asphalt and mixtures modified by different types crumb rubber (normal desulfurized). was based chemical evaluation testing for performance analysis mixtures. Chemical fraction gel permeation chromatography tests were used to identify asphalt's microstructures; conventional Superpave performed evaluate its macroproperties; an isolation test judge storage stability. Also conducted wheel loading tests, three-point beam bending Marshall...
This paper describes the development of a 3D tyre–pavement interaction model to predict contact stress distributions for future use in mechanistic analysis pavement responses. The ribbed radial-ply tyre was modelled as composite structure (rubber and reinforcement), material parameters were calibrated through load-deflection curves. steady-state rolling process simulated using an arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian formulation. results are consistent with previous measurements validate existence...
A three-dimensional (3-D) finite element (FE) model was developed to investigate the dynamic responses of thin, flexible pavement under impulsive loading similar a falling weight deflectometer test. The FE simulated hot-mix asphalt (HMA) surface layer as linear viscoelastic material and considered cross-anisotropic stress dependent modulus for unbound base layer. Implicit analysis used consider effect inertia on structural responses. Using two thin-pavement structures different HMA...
In this study, an Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based backcalculating program combined with a Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization algorithm was developed for backcalculation of flexible pavement layer moduli from Falling Weight Deflectometer (FWD) test. Axisymmetric finite element (FE) models were considering dynamic loading FWD drops and viscoelastic nonlinear material parameters layers. The FE used to generate the synthetic database that covers variations in parameters, structures,...
