During the past decades, to minimize Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and asphalt fumes during the asphalt mix production and construction process, various warm mix asphalt (WMA) additives have been developed and successfully applied. Currently, as pro...
Existing models for predicting the international roughness index (IRI) of a road surface often lack adaptability, struggling to accurately reflect variations in climate, traffic, and pavement distresses—factors critical for effective and sustai...
Following the 1987 referendums, the Italian government stopped its nuclear energy production. Radioactive waste produced by existing nuclear facilities and the very-low- and low-level radioactive waste due to other activities (e.g., healthcare) requi...
Carbon fiber-reinforced polymer (CFRP) is widely used in construction to extend the service life of building structures through the repair and rehabilitation of reinforced concrete (RC) columns. However, due to the difficulty of wrapping CFRP strips...
The interface between old and new concrete is a critical component in many construction practices, including concrete pavements, bridge decks, hydraulic dams, and buildings undergoing rehabilitation. Despite various treatments to enhance bonding, thi...
To address the glare issues caused by highway ETC gantry monitoring and imaging illumination devices, this paper first investigates the mechanism of disability glare and derives the formula for the glare threshold increment. Subsequently, using the g...
Concrete is an essential construction material, and infrastructures, such as bridges, tunnels, and power plants, consume large quantities of it. Future infrastructure demands and sustainability issues necessitate the adoption of non-conventional supp...
Sustainability rating systems (SRSs) have emerged as indispensable frameworks for advancing the environmental, social, and economic sustainability of road infrastructure. Despite their growing adoption, their integration as authoritative tools within...
The journal retracts the article, “Simplicial Complex-Enhanced Manifold Embedding of Spatiotemporal Data for Structural Health Monitoring” [...]
Urban multilane roundabouts and signalized intersections are two major roadway devices used for controlling and managing traffic flow. This paper presents a comparative analysis of the saturation flow rate between urban multilane roundabouts and mult...
This study examined the impact of various foam concrete production techniques on pore size distribution and its water absorption properties. Techniques such as the use of a cavitation disintegrator and a turbulent mixer were employed to produce foam...
This study emphasizes the significance of employing systematic approaches and precise modeling techniques to evaluate potential building damage from metro tunnel excavations. Mair et al. (1996) proposed a three-stage assessment framework comprising p...
In a climate change scenario where extreme precipitation events occur more frequently and intensely, risk assessment plays a critical role in ensuring the safety and operational efficiency of facilities. This case study uses a combination of the mult...
The application of self-compacting concrete in massive structures is still low due to the perceived high cracking tendency associated with high shrinkage and heat of cement hydration. This conclusion is from short-term research work of up to 3 months...
The accurate prediction of pavement performance is essential for transportation administration or management to appropriately allocate resources road maintenance and upkeep. The international roughness index (IRI) is one of the most commonly used pav...
This review paper investigates the current state of research on structure-to-human interaction (S2HI) in the monitoring and control of cyclo-pedestrian footbridges, focusing specifically on the biodynamic effects of oscillations on pedestrians. Its a...
The equivalent T-stub method is frequently employed in infrastructure projects, including bridge engineering, to simplify bolted connection analysis. However, steel connections remain inherently complex due to nonlinear behavior, cost considerations,...
A recurrent challenge on cycle paths are edge cracks, which affect the traffic safety and accessibility of cyclists and produce high maintenance costs. Being both structurally thinner and narrower structures than roads, the cycle paths are extra pron...
Nowadays, traffic management challenges in the era of digital transport are rising, as the interactions of various stakeholders providing such technologies play a pivotal role in shaping traffic dynamics. The objective of this paper was to present a...
The Indonesian population is projected to increase by 66.65 in 2035 due to the continuous rise in urbanization globally. The growth contributed to the growing housing backlog and limited availability of residential spaces. This led to the evolution o...
Importance: This bibliometric analysis of the application of metaheuristics in transportation and logistics examines over two decades of research (1999–present), aiming to uncover global trends, anticipate future directions, and highlight how i...
Developing reliable railway fault detection systems is crucial for ensuring both safety and operational efficiency. Various artificial intelligence frameworks, especially deep learning models, have shown significant potential in enhancing fault detec...
To investigate the shear performance of 16 m span prestressed hollow core slabs, shear tests were conducted on three pre-tensioned prestressed hollow core slabs with the same shear-to-span ratio. A systematic analysis was performed on the failure mod...
Strengthening of reinforced concrete (RC) structures has become a primary challenge in civil engineering. Different materials and procedures have been used in order to repair or strengthen RC structures. In this research, the NSM-Basalt Bar (NSM-BFRP...
