Scrap tyres are used to produce tyre-derived aggregates (TDA), which can be used as fill material, backfill material, drainage layers, and vibration-damping material, among other uses. This study presents a comprehensive review of TDA applications in...

The use of piles as barriers to mitigate vibrations from rail traffic has been increasing in theoretical and practical engineering during the last years. Tyre-derived aggregate (TDA) is a recycled material with some interesting applications in civil...
The accumulation of waste tyres presents a significant environmental challenge owing to their non-biodegradable nature and limited recycling options. The incorporation of tyre-derived rubber into concrete offers a promising strategy to reduce landfil...
There are no unique and universally accepted procedures for the determination of the maximum and minimum void ratios, emax and emin. This issue is particularly pertinent in the characterisation of the alternative sustainable materials examined in thi...
In recent years, new methods to reuse, repurpose, recycle, and recover decommissioned wind turbine blades (dWTBs) have actively been developed in the wind industry. In this study, the authors address the scientific challenge of repurposing decommissi...
Crumb rubber (CR), a recycled elastomeric polymer derived from scrap tyres, has been used as a partial replacement for fine aggregates in concrete to manage non-biodegradable waste tyre piling, which fills landfills and harms the environment. Polymer...
