  1. 1. Sustainable Implementation of Electrified Roads : Structural and Material Analyses

    Author : Feng Chen; Niki Kringos; Andreas Loizos; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrified road; Structural performance; Constitutive modelling; Asphalt; Dielectric loss.; Elektrifierade vägar; Strukturellt beteende; Konstruktivt modellerande; Asfalt; Dielektrisk förlust.; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Given the promise of the Inductive Power Transfer (IPT) technology for eRoad applications, the potential challenges for a successful integration of dynamic IPT technology into the physical road structure are explored extensively in this research work. The Finite Element Method (FEM) is selected for studying the structural performance of an eRoad under operational conditions. READ MORE

  3. 3. Storage Stability and Phase Separation Behaviour of Polymer-Modified Bitumen : Characterization and Modelling

    Author : Jiqing Zhu; Niki Kringos; Dallas Little; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer-modified bitumen; Storage stability; Phase separation; Fluorescence microscopy; Phase-field modelling; Polymermodifierad bitumen; Lagringsstabilitet; Fasseparation; Fluorescensmikroskopi; Fas-fälts modellering; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

    Abstract : Polymer-modified bitumen (PMB) is a high-performance material for road construction and maintenance. But its storage stability and phase separation behaviour are still not sufficiently understood and need to be studied toward a more successful and sustainable application of PMB. READ MORE

  4. 4. Towards a Viscoelastic Model for Phase Separation in Polymer Modified Bitumen

    Author : Jiqing Zhu; Niki Kringos; Jean-Pascal Planche; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Polymer modified bitumen; storage stability; viscoelastic phase separation; PMB model; Byggvetenskap; Civil and Architectural Engineering;

    Abstract : In this thesis, a review is given on the most popular polymers used today for polymer modification of bitumen. Furthermore, the development of a model for phase separation in polymer modified bitumen (PMB) is proposed, that will enable a better control and understanding of PMB phase behaviour, allowing thus to enhanced long-term performance.
