Recent research on asphalt binder aging and rejuvenatorsKey data on asphalt performance and formulationsUpdates on tests and specificationsFully-searchable text on CD-ROM (included) This series volume comprises research papers and technical reports developed within the U.S.-based Association of Asphalt Paving Technologists. The book is divided into sessions focused on technology, specifications, cold recycling of RAP, and rejuvenators, with special emphasis on aging and on how rejuvenators are modeled, formulated and used to improve asphalt binders and prevent cracking. The CD-ROM displays figures and illustrations in articles in full color along with a title screen and main menu screen. Eac...
This book presents the state-of-the-art report based on a comprehensive literature review completed by the RILEM Technical Committee 278-CHA: Crack-healing of Asphalt Pavement Materials. The structure of the volume includes an introduction chapter, four technical chapters, and a conclusion chapter. The contents cover several topics such as mechanisms driving loss of performance and restoration of asphalt pavement materials, intrinsic self-healing of asphalt binders and mixtures, extrinsic self-healing technologies, experimental methods, modeling approaches for the analysis, and estimation of self-healing in asphalt materials. The book benefits academics and practitioners interested in asphalt materials and flexible pavement design.
This textbook is a unique resource that demonstrates how engineering principles can be applied to solve medical challenges. It offers a toolkit on how to model heat, mass transfer, and fluid dynamics in the human body. The book discusses numerical solutions for physiological processes related to cryosurgery, hyperthermia, thermoregulation of the human body, thermal and fluid dynamics in coronary stents, magneto-hydrodynamics in the cardiovascular and respiratory systems, and cardiac acoustics. The book looks at physiological mechanisms that can be classified as Newtonian and Non-Newtonian fluids and clarifies how to leverage the Navier-Stokes equations, the first and second laws of thermodyn...
This book combines classic MR anatomy with current understanding of human brain function. Recent advances in neuroscience have highlighted the importance of correlating brain anatomy with underlying brain function, since the brain contains a highly sophisticated organization of anatomical and functional relationships that are not readily “visible” with standard imaging. The use of magnetic resonance imaging is rapidly increasing in the field of neuroscience, and remains at the forefront for offering insights into the normal and pathologic structure and function of the human brain. The relatively recent concepts of structural and functional connectivity make it even more important to visu...
