Journal ArticleDOI

Investigation of the bulk and surface microstructure of bitumen by atomic force microscopy

TL;DR: In this article, a comparison between the micro morphology of the air-oil interface compared to the bulk phase volume has been studied and it was shown that the unit cell inside these structures is rather constant and independent of the binder type.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of ageing state clusters of reclaimed asphalt binders using principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) based on chemo-rheological parameters

TL;DR: In this paper, chemical (SARA and FTIR ageing indexes) and rheological properties (master curve parameters, Glower-Rowe parameter and ΔΤc) of a large selection of Reclaimed Asphalt (RA) binders (19 samples) were determined to reveal their ageing level.
Journal ArticleDOI

Bending fracture of textile reinforced cement laminates monitored by acoustic emission: Influence of aspect ratio

TL;DR: In this paper, the flexural behavior of TRC laminates is monitored by acoustic emission (AE) sensors, which can record the elastic waves radiated from the damage sources and enable the characterization of the fracture behavior in any stage.
Journal ArticleDOI

Application of Atomic Force (AFM), Environmental Scanning Electron (ESEM) and Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) in bitumen: A review of the ageing effect.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors provide a useful guide for road engineers by collecting all the existing microstructural trends that have been reported upon ageing by utilising some of the most promising microscopic techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

Standardisation: An essential enabler for the circular reuse of construction components? A trajectory for a cleaner European construction industry

TL;DR: The evolution of standardisation is studied in order to identify the drivers for standardisation and currently available standards that aid and support the claims of the ISO 20887.
