Hydrogen offers superior combustion characteristics but faces challenges in NO_<em>x</em> emissions. Strategies like non-premixed direct injection, increased intake boost pressure, and low-pressure EGR are suggested for robust hydrogen combustion in compression-ignition engines. Control of hydrogen start of injection (SOI) and water injection (WI) are identified as effective techniques for reducing NO_<em>x</em> emissions. Ammonia shows inferior combustion and higher NO_<em>x</em> and unburned NH₃ emissions in the same conditions as conventional fuels with conventional engines. Understanding ammonia spray and evaporation conditions is significant for optimizing an ammonia-air mixture and minimizing wall impingement and ammonia trap in the crevice, thereby improving combustion and emission reduction. Increasing intake pressure, injection pressure, and EGR rate, employing a turbulent jet, and preheating ammonia improve efficiency and reduce NO_<em>x</em> emissions. Utilizing ammonia combustion requires the implementation of after-treatment systems such as NH₃ adsorber and DeNO_<em>x</em> catalysts to mitigate unburned NH₃ and NO_<em>x</em> emissions. Biodiesel affects the fuel supply system, combustion, and emission characteristics according to its viscosity and density. Increasing injection pressure and blending with volatile fuels enhance spray and combustion. Optimum biodiesel preheating temperatures for the injection pump and injector are crucial for achieving the best pump capacity and spray formation. By utilizing biodiesel-PODE blends and investigating low-temperature biodiesel combustions, there is potential to improve thermal efficiency and PM-NO_<em>x</em> trade-off. Therefore, carbon-neutral fuel adoption should be accelerated to mitigate CO₂ emissions, highlighting the importance of combustion techniques and emissions reduction strategies.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47239,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering-English Edition","volume":"11 4","pages":"Pages 575-613"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2095756424000801/pdfft?md5=3d971d5b1c3c0a03c14927f63f72f37f&pid=1-s2.0-S2095756424000801-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142097351","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To accelerate the traditional mix design procedure, this study presented a mix design procedure that can automatically determine gradation and binder content based on machine learning (ML) and a meta-heuristic algorithm. Specifically, ML approaches were employed to model the relationship between volumetric properties (mixture bulk specific gravity (<em>G</em>_mb) and air void (VV)) and both mixture component properties and mixture proportion, based on a dataset collected from literature with 660 mixture designs. Integrated with the prediction of ML models and the modified multi-objective grey wolf optimization (MOGWO) algorithm, an automatic asphalt mix design was proposed to pursue three goals, including VV, cost, and CO₂ emission. The results indicated that least squares support vector regression (LSSVR) and eXtreme gradient boosting (XGBoost) achieved the highest prediction accuracies (correlation coefficient: 0.92 for VV and 0.96 for <em>G</em>_mb). The MOGWO algorithm successfully found the 26 optimal mix designs for the case of VV vs. cost vs. CO₂ emission. Compared to the traditional laboratory design, the optimal mixture with VV of 4% achieves a cost saving of 2.46% and a reduction of 4.03% in carbon emission.

The Influencing factors and evaluation methodology of chip seals' aggregate adhesion behavior were also discussed. The results demonstrate that the adhesion process between emulsified asphalt and alkaline aggregate is divided into three processes including infiltration, demulsification, and cluster, which is more complicated when compared to hot asphalt. When designing a chip seal, not only the characteristics of single material should be paid attention to, but also the combination of binder and aggregate matters a lot. To form good adhesion between aggregate and asphalt binder, various influencing factors such as material selection, design method, and construction technical index should be considered comprehensively in the whole design, construction, and operation process. Three methods for evaluating adhesion behavior are summarized, including macroscopic adhesion performance tests, image analysis technology, and model prediction. It is not objective to evaluate the aggregate adhesion behavior of chip seal only by a single evaluation method.

This paper is concerned with the selective liberation of concrete's raw constituents (particularly aggregate) for recycling by considering the water content of concrete as a parameter of microwave heating for the first time. The deterioration law of the concrete's performance was characterized by the variation in the splitting tensile strength and relative dynamic modulus after heating by microwave at different water contents. Besides, tests were conducted to evaluate the performance of the interface transition zone (ITZ) between aggregate and mortar as well as to investigate the reasons for the stripping behavior of aggregate-mortar, which included the interface tensile strength test, temperature measurement, and porosity test. The deterioration law of splitting tensile strength and relative dynamic modulus revealed that the performance of concrete was subject to different degrees of damage depending on the water content. Furthermore, experimental results showed that interface bonding strength between aggregate and mortar was dramatically impaired, and a large temperature difference was generated between the aggregate and mortar during microwave heating. Meanwhile, the permeable pores increased considerably even when the specimens were dried. In the presence of water, the intactness of ITZ between aggregate and mortar was destroyed by microwave heating, and its performance was significantly lowered, which led to the occurrence of stripping behavior between aggregate and mortar. This was reaffirmed by the microstructure presented by scanning electron microscopy. Thus, the newly developed microwave pre-treatment improved by providing appropriate water contents for concrete corresponding to different strength grades is a promising method for recycling aggregate from waste concrete.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":47239,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Traffic and Transportation Engineering-English Edition","volume":"11 3","pages":"Pages 538-558"},"PeriodicalIF":7.4,"publicationDate":"2024-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2095756424000497/pdfft?md5=40d54b31996c35ec7406dbd623481e26&pid=1-s2.0-S2095756424000497-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141412056","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
