6. Mechanistic-Empirical Modelling of Flexible Pavement Performance : Verifications Using APT Measurements
Sammanfattning : Mechanistic-Empirical (M-E) pavement design procedures are composed of a reliable response model to estimate the state of stress in the pavement and distress models in order to predict the different types of pavement distresses due to the prevailing traffic and environmental conditions. One of the main objectives of this study was to develop a response model based on multilayer elastic theory (MLET) with improved computational performance by optimizing the time consuming parts of the MLET processes.

7. Technological properties of rock aggregates
Sammanfattning : The commission of technical geology is to apply geological knowledge to the field of constructional engineering, mining technology, environmental protection, architecture etc. The sector of infrastructure is highly dependent on the production of crushed rock materials as the main constituent of e.g. road and railway constructions.

8. Investigations of binder rejuvenation related to asphalt recycling
Sammanfattning : Investigations described in this doctoral thesis concernmaterial behaviour related to asphalt recycling. More indetail, the thesis describes development and application ofmethods for characterisation of the rejuvenation process, inwhich old and new binders are mixed. LÄS MER
9. Potential of fly ashes for neutralisation of acid mine drainage from coal mine waste rock
Sammanfattning : Many countries around the world use coal as fuel for the purpose of power generation. The extraction of coal produces large volumes of waste rock (WR) that are sometimes sulphide rich (principally containing iron sulphides such as pyrite (FeS2) and pyrrhotite (Fe1-xS)), with varying quantities of trace elements such as As, Si, Cu, Zn, Ni, Co, Mo and Cr etc).

10. Sample preparation effect on measured rheological properties of bitumen using Dynamic Shear Rheometer
Sammanfattning : Through improved bitumen characterization, which will increase the road'sdurability, stability, and performance, pavement engineering can apply thesustainability notion that should be followed in all disciplines nowadays. The newtechniques distinguish between the rheological properties of bituminous binders as a function of loading time and temperature to depict real-world behavior rather than only considering empirical properties.
