Transportation plays an important role in the development of a country. Due to increase population, demand for good transportation and passengers increased. For this purpose, new highways are built up every year. The material construction is increasing researchers race find out materials which not only used as replacer but also strength parameters decrease destresses Hot Mix Asphalt pavement. I...

My intention in this paper is to outline and motivate a novel theory of syntactic bootstrapping, Exemplar-Based Phonological Bootstrapping (EBPB), based on Stochastic Tree-Substitution Grammar. Because I have outlined the basic structure of STSG in other places for assessed work on this degree, I will not recapitulate that work in the body of the present paper, but will instead quote it in full...

The influence of three material factors, namely asphalt-aggregate ratio, fiber-aggregate ratio and mineral filler–aggregate ratio (filler–aggregate ratio) on Marshall indexes of the lignin fiber SMA mixture are investigated in this study. To achieve this goal, orthogonal experiment design and implementation of Marshall stability test, residential stability test and rutting test were used to ana...

Pavements always play a predominant role in transportation. Health monitoring of pavements is becoming more and more significant, as frequently suffering from cracks, rutting, and slippage renders them prematurely out of service. Effective and reliable sensing elements are thus in high demand to make prognosis on the mechanical properties and occurrence of damage to pavements. Therefore, in thi...

Enhancing Green Paving in Oklahoma Using Recycled Asphalt Shingles Prof. Musharraf Zaman School of Civil Engineering and Environmental Science Each year, an estimated 11 million tons of old asphalt shingles from roofs are disposed of in the United States. In Oklahoma, it costs between $50 and $150 per ton, depending on size and kind of debris, to dispose of these materials in landfills. Recent ...

The mating behaviour of red deer stags, Cervus elaphus, has been extensively described as harem defence. However, it appears that territoriality may be chosen as a mating strategy when certain conditions are met. In a study area in southwestern Spain, early on in the rut, about 58% of adult males established territories in preferred areas, defended the territory against other males even in the ...
