The dependence of linear viscoelasticity limits of cold-recycled mixtures on time of curing and compaction method
PublikacjaCold-recycled mixtures are currently among the most widely used and investigated methods that enable recycling of old pavement structures in an environmentally friendly manner. Upon milling, the old pavement structure – whose gradation can be improved with addition of virgin aggregate – is mixed and compacted at ambient temperature. The main binding agents are bituminous emulsion and cement. Due to their dual binding behaviour,...

Pavement ageing influence on tyre/road noise
PublikacjaRoad surface should be constructed in a way that ensures safe and comfortable traffic conditions, not only when it is newly paved but also during its entire lifetime. An important factor in the asphalt mixture design process is also the expected pavement durability and stability of pavement properties over time. In many countries, road surface starts to play a significant role in traffic noise reduction actions. Selecting a particular...

Improving Thermal Insulation Properties for Prefabricated Wall Components Made of Lightweight Aggregate Concrete with Open Structure
PublikacjaPorous concrete is commonly used in civil engineering due to its good thermal insulation properties in comparison with normal concrete and high compression strength in comparison with other building materials. An extremely porous concrete, called ‘lightweight aggregate concrete with open structure’ (LAC), is used in some German plants to produce prefabricated wall components. They are used mainly in hall buildings, e.g. supermarkets....

A new open-source software developed for numerical simulations usingdiscrete modeling methods
PublikacjaThe purpose of this work is to present the development of an open-source software based on a discrete description of matter applied to study the behavior of geomaterials. This software uses Object Oriented Programming techniques, and its methodology design uses three different methods, which are the Discrete Element Method (DEM) [F. Donzé, S.A. Magnier, Formulation of a three-dimensional numerical model of brittle behavior, Geophys....
