Self-healing of asphalt mixture by microwave and induction heating

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of microwave and induction heating on self-healing of asphalt mixture test samples was evaluated by measuring the mass of test samples before and after the heating process, and it was found that microwave technology is more effective than induction heating to heal cracks in asphalt roads.

Investigation of the conductivity of asphalt concrete containing conductive fillers

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of filler type, filler content and mixed fillers on the resistivity of asphalt concrete were investigated, and the results showed that the insulating-conductive percolation transition of resistivity under the function of filler content appears in the single-filler composites and the percolated threshold is approximately 12%, 10%, and 5% by volume percentage of the binder phase for carbon black, graphite and carbon fibre respectively.
