Subgrade soil stabilization is one of the primary and major processes in the construction of any highway; also environmental authorities are concerned about the growing amount of polyethylene (PET) bottles produced by household sectors. This research in order to study effect of adding recycled polyester fiber on soil engineering properties, especially shear strength and California Bearing Ratio...

the purpose of this research was to evaluate the application of recycled aggregates of constructiondebris such as concrete, cement block and rubbles from pars-kangan site in asphalt concrete mix design. toevaluate the performance of aggregates different mix designs with recycled aggregate percentages of 0, 10,30, 50 and bitumen percentages of 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, and 6.5 were provided and two mar...

the neat bitumen, an oil refining by-product, has its own inherent weakness under long-time loading at low and high temperatures. these performance limitations of neat bitumen have led researchers to modify its physical andmechanical properties. according to several studies, polymers can be used to modify the properties of bitumen. due to much lower production costs and aiming to reduce environ...

of design The basic optical configuration is a power-recycled and signal-recycled Michelson interferometer with Fabry-Perot ‘transducers’ in the arms. This requires the addition of a signal recycling mirror to the suspended optics at the output ‘dark’ port, and changes in the RF modulation and control systems. The control system relies on a hierarchy of actuators in the seismic and suspension s...

Changes of the pore structure of recycled fibers and the strength properties of papers produced by old corrugated container (OCC) recycled fibers were studied, after they were subjected to different stock preparation and papermaking processes. In this paper, the effects of beating, sizing, pressing, and drying on fiber properties were investigated, and the porous structure of fibers was analyze...

This work investigates how bargaining power affects negotiations between manufacturers and reverse logistics providers in reverse supply chains under government intervention using a novel three-stage reverse supply chain model for two scenarios, a reverse logistics provider alliance and no reverse logistics provider alliance. Utilizing the asymmetric Nash bargaining game, this work seeks equili...

Faced with limited water supply options in the longer term and the worst drought on record in the short term, the Queensland Government is constructing the Western Corridor Recycled Water Project which will supply up to 182 ML/day of purified recycled water for industrial and potable purposes. The project is one of a suite of capital works projects in progress which in the longer term will supp...

introduction a large number of orthodontists prefer to rebond the failed bonded brackets or use recycled brackets in some instances. the aim of this study was to compare the shear bond strength of rebonding with using recycled brackets on enamel surface. methods bonding of brackets on the surface of extracted first bicuspids was tested in five different groups to compare their shear bond streng...
