Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsINVESTIGATING EFFECTS OF AMINE BASED MODIFIER ON RECYCLED ASPHALT SHINGLES BLENDINGGovinda Sedhay, Elham H. Fini, Taher Abu-LebdehA laboratory study was conducted to investigate the effects of Amine based modifier on rheological characteristics of particle filled viscous medium such as asphalt binder in presence of Recycled Asphalt Shingles (RAS). In this study, virgin asphalt binder (PG 64-22), three different percentages (20, 30 and 40%) of tear-off shingles and modifiers; Rediset, Evotherm and Bio-binder were used. The tear-off … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 8,728 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBehavior of Stabilized Peat Soils in Unconfined Compression TestsWong Leong Sing, Roslan Hashim, Faisal Haji AliProblem statement: Deep stabilized peat columns were known to be economical at forming foundations to support highway embankments constructed on deep peat land. However, failure in the formation of the columns with adequate strength was often attributed to unsuitable type and insufficient dosage of binder added to the soil. Organic matter in peat was known to impede the cementing process … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Use of Polyethylene in Hot Asphalt MixturesMohammad T. Awwad, Lina ShbeebThe increase in road traffic during the last two decades in combination with an insufficient degree of maintenance due to shortage in funds has caused an accelerated and continuous deterioration of the road network in Jordan. To alleviate this process, several types of measures may be effective, e.g., securing funds for maintenance, improved roadway design, use of better quality of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 14,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDensity Equation of Bio-Coal Briquettes and Quantity of Maize Cob in Phitsanulok, ThailandPatomsok WilaiponOne of the most important crops in Phitsanulok, a province in Northern Thailand, is maize. Base on the calculation, the quantity of maize cob produced in this region was approximately 220 kton year-1. The net heating value of maize cob was found to be 14.2 MJ kg-1. Therefore, the total energy over 874 TJ year-1 can be obtained from this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,896 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Polyester Grouted Connector for Splicing of Reinforcement BarsAshraf Fadiel, Nuria Mohammed, Ahmad Baharuddin Abdul Rahman et al.The research aims to investigate the viability of employing polyester grout as a bonding agent for the splicing of reinforcement bars. 0.43 and 1 binder-to-filler ratio were examined. The process of splicing reinforcement bars under tension using a polyester grouted splice connector is elucidated. Through direct tension tests, the optimal mix design and required length of the splicing sleeve were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 16 Feb 2024 · 4,700 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Amino Acid and Energy Balancing to Address MaizeGrade Variation in Broiler PerformanceMd. Shahidur Rahman, Muhammad Farhad Hossain, Million Maksuda et al.This study aimed to evaluate the effects of maize grade variationin broiler performance. A total of 189 Cobb 500 broilers were randomly andevenly assigned to three dietary treatments having three replications of 21 birds each. The treatments were: T0 (feed formulated with grade-A maize), T1 (feed formulated with grade-B maize, with Metabolizable Energy (ME) deficiencies compensated by additional Soybean Oil … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 10 Jul 2025 · 2,962 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Bio-Modified Montmorillonite Clay to Enhance Asphalt Oxidation ResistanceShahrzad Hosseinnezhad, Elham H. Fini, Taher M. Abu-LebdehThis study evaluates the effectiveness of using a Bio-modified Nanoclay additive (BNC) to reduce the oxidative aging of asphalt pavements. The study results through X-Ray Diffraction analysis showed that the modification of montmorillonite clay with bio-modifier increased the basal d-spacing of clay. The resulting nanoclay with increased interlayer spacing was chosen for application in asphalt binder. Rheological characterization of clay-modified … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 31 Mar 2018 · 9,061 accessesView PDFCite
