Effect of vehicular stream characteristics on traffic noise (2022)
Journal Article
Abed, A., Albayati, A., & Wang, Y. (2022). Effect of vehicular stream characteristics on traffic noise. Civil engineering journal (Tehran. Online), 8(12), 3883-3901. https://doi.org/10.28991/CEJ-2022-08-12-016

Human health can be negatively impacted by exposure to loud noise, which can harm the auditory system. Traffic noise is the leading cause of noise pollution. This paper studies the problem of noise pollution on the roads in Baghdad, Iraq. Due to the... Read More about Effect of vehicular stream characteristics on traffic noise.

An experimental study of granular material using recycled concrete waste for pavement roadbed construction (2022)
Journal Article
concrete waste for pavement roadbed construction. Buildings, 12(11), 1926. https://doi.org/10.3390/buildings12111926

Rapid worldwide urbanization and drastic population growth have increased the demand for new road construction, which will cause a substantial amount of natural resources such as aggregates to be consumed. The use of recycled concrete aggregate could... Read More about An experimental study of granular material using recycled concrete waste for pavement roadbed construction.

Experimental study of temperature effect on the mechanical tensile fatigue of hydrated lime modified asphalt concrete and case application for the analysis of climatic effect on constructed pavement (2022)
Journal Article
constructed pavement. Case studies in construction materials, 17, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.cscm.2022.e01622

Previous experimental studies have suggested that hot mixed asphalt (HMA) concrete using hydrated lime (HL) to partially replace the conventional limestone dust filler at 2.5% by the total weight of all aggregates showed an optimum improvement on sev...

Using polymer to modify asphalt binder for better performance has become popular in pavement engineering, for which to evaluate the effect of polymer addition on the properties of the asphalt concrete is essential for mix design. Conventional mechani... Read More about Direct tensile test evaluation and characterization for mechanical and rheological properties of polymer modified hot mix asphalt concrete.

Thermal properties of hydrated lime-modified asphalt concrete and modelling evaluation for their effect on the constructed pavements in service (2022)
Journal Article
Al Ashaibi, A., Wang, Y., Albayati, A., Byzyka, J., Scholz, M., & Weekes, L. (2022). Thermal properties of hydrated lime-modified asphalt concrete and modelling evaluation for their effect on the constructed pavements in service. Sustainability, 14(13),

Flexible pavements are subjected to three main distress types: fatigue crack, thermal crack, and permanent deformation. Under severe climate conditions, thermal cracking particularly contributes largely to a considerable scale of premature deteriora...

Size effect of hydrated lime on the mechanical performance of asphalt concrete (2022)
Journal Article
asphalt concrete. Materials, 15(10), 3715

Despite widespread agreement on the beneficial nature of hydrated lime (HL) addition to asphalt concrete mixes, understanding of the effect of HL particle size is still limited. Previous investigations have focused mainly on two different size compar... Read More about Size effect of hydrated lime on the mechanical performance of asphalt concrete.
