SBS modified asphalt has good abilities to resisting pressure of high or low temperature and rutting in areas where changes of temperature is large. In our country,It is one of the important engineering materials which can solve the problem of heavy traffic on asphalt pavement and rutting in long and steep roads.In order to deeply understand the changes of rheological properties during the Thermal aging reaction of SBS modified asphalt,under different temperature conditions.regarded 90 # asphalt with CNOOC as lateral reference standard, Systematic study has been applied on the rheological properties of SBS modified asphalt and 90 # asphalt at different temperatures by using methods of DSR.The results showed that:during 28°C~34°C,with the rising of Temperature,performance of Resistance to fatigue cracking of the original modified asphalt and the original 90 # asphalt has became more and more strong.At the same temperature,the original modified asphalt’s performance of Resistance to fatigue cracking is stronger than the original 90 # asphalt’s.Long and short-term aging reactions weaken the performance of resistance to fatigue cracking of SBS modified asphalt and 90 # asphalt, and the effects of long-term weakening is more obvious.during 52°C~76°C,the anti-rutting performance of SBS modified asphalts and the 90 # original asphalts became more an more bad with the rising of Temperature.

This paper studies the robustness of off-shore solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) installations and the nature and causes of possible cell degradation in marine environments. Two important, cathode-related, impediments to ensuring SOFC reliability in off-shore installations are: cathode degradation due to salt contamination and oxygen depletion in the air supply. Short-term and long-term tests show the effect of salt contamination in the cathode feed on cell performance, and reveal the underlying cause of the degradation seen. SEM/X-ray Diffraction/(XRD) analyses made it possible to identify salt taken up in the cathode microstructure after the short-term testing while the macroscopic cell structure remained intact after the short-term tests. The long-term degradation was found to be more severe, and SEM images showed delamination at the cathode/electrolyte interface with salt present, something that was not seen after long-term testing without salt. The effect of oxygen depletion on the performance was also determined at three different temperatures using I-V curves.

Asphalt polymer has superior characteristics than conventional asphalt. Styrene Butadiene Styrene (SBS) is a polymer that has proven its performance in heavy traffic, but it must be imported and expensive. Crumb rubber have high potential to be used as an asphalt modifier. Asphalt modified crumb rubber has high viscosity and is not homogeneous, so that the utilization cannot be delayed. This reduces workability in the field. This study aims to obtain asphalt modified crumb rubber which is easier to use by adding materials that do not affect its performance. RejIRE is a low viscosity additive to restore the properties of bitumen on crumb rubber modified. Experiments were carried out by adding variations in RejIRE levels to crumb rubber modified asphalt to determine its characteristics. Continued investigation of the performance of hot paved mixtures for wearing courses compared to asphalt mixtures with Pen 60/70 asphalt and SBS modified asphalt mixtures. The result is the addition of 0.75% RejIRE on asphalt crumb rubber modification have high workability. Overall the performance of the mix with SBS modified asphalt is better, but the mixture of hot paved with modified asphalt crumb rubber has a resistance to permanent deformation superior to the other paved mixtures.

Experimental investigations of the creep-rupture properties of metal of intermediate heat exchangers (IHX) from fast breeder reactor BN-600 after its operation during ∼ 170 thousands hours over temperature range of 500–550°C were carried out. IHX was produced from 18Cr-9Ni steel. To study the role of thermal aging part of the IHX metal was annealed at 1000–1050°C for 0.5 hours. Comparison of experimental results of aging metal and annealed metal was carried out and the microstructure and fractography of both materials examined. The effect of aging on the creep-rupture properties of 18Cr-9Ni steel was revealed and described by the physical and mechanical model of intergranular fracture. On the basis of experimental and calculative results an explanation of the effect of long-term aging on the mechanical short-term and creep-rupture properties of 18Cr-9Ni steel has been provided.

Major distresses such as rutting, fatigue, and thermal cracking are facing asphalt pavement structures due to continuous heavy traffic loading and climate change. The modification of asphalt binders (one of the main components of the asphalt paving mix) has the potential to mitigate distresses through using different additives. Polymer modified asphalt (PMA) binders showed a noticeable resistance to pavement distresses as reported in previous studies. The present study aims to evaluate the effect of polymer modification on the rheological properties of asphalt binders through laboratory tests. The polymers included styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) and epolene emulsifiable (EE2) types. The 60/70 binder was used as a control for comparison. The Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) was also utilized to simulate the effect of PMA binders on the rheological properties under different climatic conditions and structural capacities. Additionally, the MEPDG was further utilized to compare the effect of asphalt binders on rheological properties using four different binder input levels. Findings of the study showed that laboratory tests experienced varying outcomes regarding the most efficient asphalt binder by means of distresses resistance. However, the MEPDG evaluation showed that the overall ranking of asphalt binders positively impacting the rheological properties was as following: (1) 4.5% EE2 PMA, (2) 4% EE2 PMA, (3) 60/70 binder, (4) 5% SBS PMA, and (5) 4% SBS PMA binders. Furthermore, statistical analysis illustrated that the effect of using different binder input levels on the performance of pavement varied relatively to the evaluated distresses. The analysis showed that using different binder input levels would affect, to a certain extent, the asphalt binder influence on rheological properties only when evaluating rutting and fatigue distresses. Therefore, it is recommended that precise asphalt binder inputs, that is, shear complex modulus (G*) and phase angle (δ) are used when designing pavement structures in regions with hot and mild climate conditions.
