However, most current research is limited to GO modified base asphalt, and the modification effect is insignificant. In this paper, GO / SBS-modified asphalt was prepared by high-speed shearing. The effects of GO on the physical properties, storage stability, low-temperature performance, and aging resistance of SBS-modified asphalt were studied. A low-temperature beam bending test analyzed the low-temperature performance of GO / SBS composite modified asphalt mixture before and after aging. The results show that adding GO improves SBS-modified asphalt’s high-temperature performance, aging resistance, and storage stability. When the con - tent of GO is 0.75%, the physical properties of modified asphalt are the best. The low-temperature rheological properties of modified asphalt with GO before aging are slightly lower than those of SBS-modified asphalt. However, adding GO improves the low-temperature rheological properties of GO/SBS modified asphalt after aging. GO-modified asphalt slightly improves the low-temperature toughness of the mixture under non-aging and short-term aging. However, it still makes the mixture maintain good low-temperature performance under long-term aging. GO / SBS modified asphalt mixture has excellent low-temperature crack resistance before and after aging, and GO / SBS composite modified asphalt can effectively alleviate the damaging effect of aging on the low-temperature crack resistance of asphalt mixture and prolong the service life of the pavement.","PeriodicalId":18246,"journal":{"name":"Matéria (Rio de Janeiro)","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88142972","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted an analysis of the high-temperature rheological properties of asphalt before and after short-term and long-term aging using the dynamic shear rheological (DSR) test and multi-stress creep recovery (MSCR) test. Additionally, the road performance of the asphalt mixture was studied by rutting test and low temperature beam bending test. The results indicate that the 30# asphalt demonstrates superior anti-rutting performance compared to the 50# asphalt. Furthermore, the rutting factor and fatigue factor of the 30# asphalt during aging are significantly higher than those of the 50# asphalt. With increasing temperature, stress level, and stress action time, the strain of the asphalt gradually increases. The unrecoverable creep compliance of the 50# asphalt exceeds that of the 30#. Although the high-temperature performance of the 30# asphalt mixture outperforms that of the 50# asphalt mixture, it exhibits lower flexural tensile strength and deformation ability at low temperatures compared to the 50# asphalt mixture. Overall, low-grade asphalt demonstrates relatively stable stress variations and exhibits good high-temperature stability.","PeriodicalId":18246,"journal":{"name":"Matéria (Rio de Janeiro)","volume":"14 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88021418","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By Incorporating the latest trends, Polymer Concrete (PC) and Fibre-Reinforced Concrete (FRC) are being used to improve the strength of concrete. It is proposed to produce M30 grade Fibre Reinforced Polymer Concrete (FRPC) with the help of Polyester Resins (PR), Polypropylene Fibres (PF) and Recycled Waste Plastics (RWPA). FRPC is a combination of three different variables of different replacement percentages, which requires extensive and detailed experimentation to optimize each variable used in this investigation. In this study (research), optimization was done by keeping the two variables constant. To reduce the number of experiments, optimization of ingredients was done by statistical modelling technique of Central Composite Design (CCD). In conclusion, the optimal input parameters for achieving a 28-day CS are determined to be 12.05% PR, 2.19% PF, and 30% RWPA. These findings are based on the analysis of experimental results, statistical modelling, and the CCD approach, demonstrating the successful optimization and correlation between the input parameters and the desired CS output.","PeriodicalId":18246,"journal":{"name":"Matéria (Rio de Janeiro)","volume":"20 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73344692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show that the refractive index at 632.8 nm decreases from 2.18 to 1.892 with the increase of the Gd 3+ ratio, while it increases with film thickness and annealing tempera - ture. This trend for refractive index variation is explained based on interatomic spacing and density densification of the films. Using Wemple–Di Domenico (WDD) model shows that the dispersion energy increases with film thickness and annealing temperature and decreases with Gd 3+ doping.

The results showed that both microalloyed and unmicroalloyed steels have good thermoplasticity and the plasticity increased with increasing deformation temperature. The microalloyed steels above 1000°C could have their high-temperature plasticity significantly enhanced by Nb, V microalloying, while the microalloyed steels at or below 1000°C could have their plasticity reduced. When the deformation temperature exceeds 1000°C, complete recrystallization occurs in both microal-loyed and unmicroalloyed steels. The Nb, V microalloys were able to refine the recrystallized grains, which could obtain a stronger resistance to crack expansion and give the microalloyed steels better high-temperature plasticity. When the deformation temperature at or below 1000°C, the unmicroalloyed steel exhibited significant recrystallization. The presence of numerous small-sized NbC precipitation phases, abundant in the microal-loyed steel, hindered the recrystallization. This made dynamic recrystallization of microalloyed steels almost non-existent when deformation occurred at lower temperatures, which lead to lower plasticity compared to the unmicroalloyed steel.","PeriodicalId":18246,"journal":{"name":"Matéria (Rio de Janeiro)","volume":"749 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76857040","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
