This paper presents a newly developed short-term lab-aging procedure (HMAAT – Hot Mix Asphalt Aging Test) to assess the changing of the material characteristics as a consequence of extended material hauling times and related high mix temperatures.
This is a consequence of the fact that this kind of research works are quite difficult, as a consequence of the material characteristics itself: mechanical properties variability, low availability of material, uncertainty about the "history" of the tested material, unknown original mechanical properties.
For the more abundant silicates, they are an example for transformations which could occur when heated, but as a consequence of other material constants at other temperature ranges.
Among established intensive care unit patients, the risk for nephropathy lasting even three days as a consequence of radiocontrast material use appears to be small, less than 2%.
The huge asperity associated with the M9 event can be understood as a consequence of the material-independent nature of the fault strength at intermediate depths.
The report documents other tragedies of life under siege: an increase in sexual violence, child labour, petty crime, violence and school closures as a consequence of airstrikes and material shortages.
As a consequence of the new material approach, the IFP can be built as a monolith without any sealing.
As a consequence of novel advanced material studies, in the last 30 years several typologies of X-ray lenses have been developed.
Load-to-grain angle dependence of the embedment behavior of steel dowels in laminated veneer lumber, as a consequence of the anisotropic material behavior of wood, is experimentally investigated in this study.
To put this in perspective, topological design could cause up to 10-fold difference in the mechanical properties of AM porous biomaterials while up to 2-fold difference was observed as a consequence of changing the material type.
