Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of Surface Energy to evaluate Adhesion of Bituminous Crack Sealants to AggregatesEllie H. Fini, Imad L. Al-Qadi, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Jean-Francois MassonProblem statement: The performance of bituminous sealants in the field is partly controlled by properties and strength of the sealant-aggregate interface. The thermodynamic work of adhesion represents energy required for reversible separation of the two materials at the interface. The study of fracture includes the energy required for both reversible and irreversible processes during separation. Excess of work of facture … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 7,884 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNanowire Mediated Effect of Interspecies Electron Transfer in Organic Solid Waste Co-FermentationJingkang Chen, Daicheng Liu et al.Low efficiency of Interspecific Electron Transfer (IET) among microorganisms constrains organic matter degradation and biogas production in organic solid waste co‑fermentation. This work investigates the underlying bottleneck and evaluates the nanowire‑mediated enhancement of IET. Surface plasmon resonance‑enhanced electrochemical impedance spectroscopy coupled with metagenomic and metatranscriptomic sequencing was applied to regulate endogenous nanowire formation in anaerobic reactors.
