In order to better master the production process and the road performance of rubber asphalt, the paper studied the influence law of mixing method, mixing temperature, mixing time and rubber powder content on the performance of rubber asphalt. The results show that all the indexes except the viscosity of rubber asphalt has little change with different mixing methods, and the rubber asphalt has the best performance under the high-speed stirring molding method but the worst performance under the high-speed shearing molding method. Meanwhile, the performance of rubber asphalt change visibly with different mixing temperatures, on which the excessively high or low production temperature has negative significance, so the optimal production temperature would be recommended as 180~200°C. Furthermore, the mixing time and the rubber powder content are the two critical factors which may greatly affect the performance of rubber asphalt, followed by the mixing temperature and the mixing method.

Pulsed Mixing

In this study, we proposed a novel mixing method using alternate pulsed flows from three inlet channels using three piezoelectric valveless micropumps. Two solutions are assigned into one micropump and the other two micropumps, respectively. The fabricated microfluidic device consists of a cross-shaped mixing channel with three inlet microchannels and three valveless micropumps. According to the experimental results, it was confirmed that the pulsed mixing using three inlet microchannels increased mixing speed with increasing the switching frequency of the micropump driving up to 200 Hz. The proposed method solved the problem of a bias of concentration ratio near the sidewalls which has happened in the previous pulsed mixing method using T- or Y-shaped microchannel with two inlet microchannels. Furthermore, by controlling a solution flow at the confluent area utilizing a reverse flow of the micropump, the mixing speed dramatically increased and the mixing time of 3.6 ms for 90% mixing ratio was achieved at the micropumps switching of 400 Hz.

As a promising topic of research, Vehicular Cloud (VC) incorporates cloud computing and ad-hoc vehicular network (VANET). In VC, supplier vehicles provide their services to consumer vehicles in real-time. These services have a significant impact on the applications of internet access, storage and data. Due to the high-speed mobility of vehicles, users in consumer vehicles need a mechanism to discover services in their vicinity. Besides this, quality of service varies from one supplier vehicle to another; thus, consumer vehicles attempt to pick out the most appropriate services. In this paper, we propose a novel protocol named RSU-aided Cluster-based Vehicular Clouds protocol (RCVC), which constructs the VC using the Road Side Unit (RSU) directory and Cluster Head (CH) directory to make the resources of supplier vehicles more visible. While clusters of vehicles that move on the same road form a mobile cloud, the remaining vehicles form a different cloud on the road side unit. Furthermore, the consumption operation is achieved via the service selection method, which is managed by the CHs and RSUs based on a mathematical model to select the best services. Simulation results prove the effectiveness of our protocol in terms of service discovery and end-to-end delay, where we achieved service discovery and end-to-end delay of 3 × 10−3 s and 13 × 10−2 s, respectively. Moreover, we carried out an experimental comparison, revealing that the proposed method outperformed several states of the art protocols.

Walled Carbon Nanotubes

The present work has been aimed to synthesize Polyurethane (PU)/Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNTs) composite using a two-step method to enhance mechanical properties. In the first step, films (0.2 mm thickness) have been synthesized using a solution mixing method to disperse MWCNTs in the PU matrix. In the second step, thin films of uniformly dispersed MWCNTs in the PU matrix have been compression molded to synthesize PU/MWCNTs composite required for real mechanical applications. The two-step method has the advantages of solution mixing as well as compression molding method. The results of quasi-static nanoindentation tests indicated that in comparison to pure PU, elastic modulus and hardness have been enhanced by 124% and 53% respectively for 10 wt% PU/MWCNTs composite. Fracture resistance of PU/MWCNTs composites, with 7 wt% of MWCNTs, has been enhanced by 52% as compared to pure PU. To understand bulk behavior, nanoindentation results have been cross-verified with compression testing. Results of compressive testing shown that the modulus of composite material has been significantly improved under the influence of the increasing composition of MWCNTs. A noticeable improvement of 52% has been observed in compressive modulus of 10 wt% composite in equivalence to pure PU. The overall improvement in mechanical behavior has been attributed to the uniform dispersion of MWCNTs in the PU matrix by the two-step synthesis method.

The article touches upon the problem of implementing energy saving technologies in the road building, in particular, installing solar panels instead of asphalt pavement. The main advantages of using solar panels in the road building and the functions of the pavement including lighting in the dark, energy source for recharging electric cars, which are gaining popularity in Europe; using communication layer of this pavement as high-speed Internet channel and mobile communication; proper traffic bearing surface that could replace conventional asphalt. The roadway equipped with panels acts as a network of individual cells, each of them is controlled by the central computer. This fact helps to replace any panel in case of damage or spoilage. The observation of “smart road” projects designed by the engineers of different countries has been presented. The considered innovative solutions in the road building allow to bring the state of the roads in the fast-growing cities to the necessary ecological level, as well as to solve the problem of slippery roads in winter. The disadvantage of projects of building the roads based on solar batteries at first will be the high cost of manufacturing.

Recently, accidents involving ground transportations are getting worse and more serious. Indonesian State Police (Korlantas POLRI) recorded the number of accidents in 2018 as many as 109,215 accidents. The number has incresed 4.69 percent compared to 2017 as many as 104,327 events. Road traffic accidents are caused by human error, the driver in this case. The driver's mistake is influenced by several factors, one of them is they cannot expect the road condition when they drive a vehicle at high speed. To solve this problem, drivers need information that can show road conditions. So, we present a new approach for detecting damaged roads by applying augmented reality technology. This research produces a road condition information system to help drivers get information about road conditions via smartphone. This system uses augmented reality technology with a markerless GPS Based Tracking method. The development of this system requires several stages such as collecting the data, data conversion, data classification, and views road condition. The researchers gathered the road condition data from the Public Work Department Semarang. This department itself undertakes a task to control the road condition in Semarang The trial of this system includes all drivers in Semarang city. Based on the results of the questionnaire responded to by 93 respondents, this test obtained an average value of 68%. So this system gets a pretty good response from the driver. Through this system, all drivers can avoid the damaged road condition which can cause traffic-congested and accident.

While educational and corporate training environments have made large investments in getting wired to high-speed Internet connections, our work and social environments are rapidly becoming more mobile and flexible. The Internet and organizationally based intranets are powerful learning and performance tools, as long as users have a high-speed connection and up-to-date computing equipment. Online learning and information is not nearly as convenient or reliable when learners need to access sites from their homes, hotel rooms, client locations, or while on the road. In corporate settings, large numbers of critical employees such as factory engineers, health care professionals, builders, and maintenance workers often do not even have offices in which to use a computer.

Epoxy-clay nanocomposites were prepared by high shear mixing method using Nanomer I.30E nanoclay as nano-reinforcement in diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A (DGEBA). The effect of mixing speed and time on the nature and degree of clay dispersion were investigated by varying the mixing speed in the range of 500-8000 RPM and mixing time in the range of 15-90 minutes. The effect of degassing temperature on the morphology of the resultant nanocomposites was also studied. Scanning and transmission microscopy (SEM & TEM) along with x-ray diffraction (XRD) have been used to characterize the effect of shear mixing speed, mixing time and degassing temperature on the structure of the resultant nanocomposites. The SEM, TEM and XRD examinations demonstrated that the degree of clay dispersion was improved with increasing the high shear mixing speed and mixing time. The results showed that the optimum high shear mixing speed and mixing time were 6000 rpm and 60 min, respectively. It was observed that the structure of the nanocomposites that have been degassed at 65oC was dominated by ordered intercalated morphology while disordered intercalated with some exfoliated morphology was found for the sample degassed at 100oC for the first 2 hours of the degassing process.
