STRUCTURAL LAYER APPLICABILITY OF SEMI-FLEXIBLE MATERIAL FOR RUTTING RESISTANCE: A COUPLED TEMPERATURE-MECHANICAL APPROACH.

Structural layer applicability of semi-flexible material for rutting resistance: A coupled temperature-mechanical approach.

Semi-flexible material (SFM) is produced by pouring cement grouting material into Lid Hinge the asphalt concrete skeleton.It exhibits both characteristics of cement and asphalt, increasing structural stiffness and reducing rutting.Extensive studies have shown that the temperature load coupling effect is one of the leading causes of road rutting.How

Modeling the Broad-Band Emission from the Gamma-Ray Emitting Narrow-Line Seyfert-1 Galaxies 1H 0323+342 and B2 0954+25A

Prior to the Fermi-LAT era, only two classes of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) were thought to harbor relativistic jets that radiate up to gamma-ray energies: blazars and radio galaxies.The detection of variable gamma-ray emission from Narrow Line Seyfert 1 (NLSy1) galaxies has put them on the spotlight as a new class of gamma-ray emitting AGN.In thi

Persistence of genetically engineered canola populations in the U.S. and the adventitious presence of transgenes in the environment.

Feralization of genetically Health engineered (GE) crops increases the risk that transgenes will become integrated into natural and naturalizing plant populations.A key assumption of the management of GE crops is that populations of escaped plants are short-lived and therefore the risks they pose are limited.However, few populations of escaped crop

Identification of Host Factors Involved in Human Cytomegalovirus Replication, Assembly, and Egress Using a Two-Step Small Interfering RNA Screen

ABSTRACT As obligate intracellular parasites, viruses are completely dependent on host factors for replication.Assembly and egress of complex P-5-P virus particles, such as human cytomegalovirus (HCMV), are likely to require many host factors.Despite this, relatively few have been identified and characterized.This study describes a novel high-throu
