This paper presents a preliminary investigation on dry shrinkage, frost resistance and permeability of rubber included concrete. The results show that rubber particles from waste tires are beneficial to reduction of dry shrinkage of cement mortars due to their soft characteristics. The addition of rubber powder in cement concrete can greatly improve frost resistance of concrete. However, coarse rubber particles (3~4 mm in diameter) seem to have little positive effect to frost resistance. The addition of proper amount of rubber in concrete can reduce permeability of concrete, but excessive rubber can have negative effect.

Shrinkage Property

For the old composite pavement, there are two regeneration methods: the overall recycling asphalt pavement and the cement concrete pavement and the Stratified recovery. C-B-3 gradation and cement content of 5% were used. The total content of recycled aggregate is 0, 30%, 50%, 70% and 100% and the proportion of RA and RAP is about 1:2. Through compaction test， unconfined compressive strength test and dry shrinkage test, studying the feasibility of recycling composite pavement to cement stabilized macadam base. The results show that the strength of recycled cement stabilized macadam is generally higher than that of ordinary cement stabilized macadam. The strength of regenerated cement stabilized macadam can meet the strength requirements under most traffic volume of the highways in the standard. The gradation of the mixture by stratified recovery is more uniform and the quality of the mixture can be better controlled. The addition of NA has a negative effect on the dry shrinkage properties of recycled cement stabilized macadam. However, mixing RAP into recycled cement stabilized macadam can reduce the sensitivity of materials to water and enhance the dry shrinkage property of materials.

Air Entrained Concrete

The article presents the results of original and relevant tests from the point of view of using self-compacting concrete admixtures, especially their compatibility with the cement and mutual compatibility in the case of using several admixtures in one mixture. The research contributes to the recognition of the effect of an unintentionally air-entraining superplasticiser (SP), anti-foam (AFA), viscosity-modifying (VMA) and air-entraining (AEA) admixtures on the internal frost resistance and compressive strength of self-compacting concrete. Positive and undesirable effects of the combined use of several admixtures in this area have not been the subject of extensive analyses and publications so far. Superplasticiser, which unintentionally introduced a large amount of air to the concrete mixture, had a negative effect on the strength of the concrete and a positive effect on frost resistance. The addition of AFA to such concrete did not change the strength but worsened the values of the parameters estimating frost resistance. The AEA admixture resulted in a decrease in the strength of concrete but contributed to a change in the tendency to weaken the frost resistance observed in non-air-entrained concrete. The article also deals with the problem of compliance of the frost resistance criteria estimated upon various measures. It may be disturbing that finding frost resistance based on one criterion does not always mean frost resistance on another criterion. The discrepancies can be significant and misleading.

This research is new in its attempt to take future time orientation, morningness orientation, and prospective memory as measures of mental prospection, and to examine a three-factor model that assumes working memory, mental prospection, and cognitive insight are independent but related higher-order cognitive constructs by using confirmatory factor analysis (CFA). The three-factor model produced a good fit to the data. An alternative one-factor model was tested and rejected. The results suggest that working memory and cognitive insight are distinguishable, related constructs, and that both are distinct from, but negatively associated with, mental prospection. In addition, structural equation modeling (SEM) showed that working memory had a strong positive effect on cognitive insight and a moderate negative effect on mental prospection.

Abstract. The effect of pretreatment in vivo with oestradiol benzoate on in vitro secretion of LH and FSH was studied in long-term ovariectomized (OVX) rats both at the end of a 5-day continuous in vivo pretreatment with LRH and 4-days after cessation of such LRH pretreatment. Rats were on day 0 sc implanted with osmotic minipumps which released LRH at the rate of 250 ng/h. Control rats were implanted with a piece of silicone elastomer with the dimensions of a minipump. On days 2 and 4 the rats were injected with either 3 μg EB or with oil. On day 5 part of the rats were decapitated and the in vitro autonomous (i.e. non-LRH-stimulated) and 'supra-maximally' LRHstimulated release of LH and FSH was studied using a perifusion system. From other rats the minipumps were removed on day 5 and perifusion was performed on day 9. On the 5th day of the in vivo LRH pretreatment the pituitary LH/FSH stores were partially depleted; the pituitaries of the EB-treated rats more so than those of the oil-injected rats. EB alone had no significant effect on the content of the pituitary LH- and FSH stores. On day 9, i.e. 4 days after removal of the minipumps, the pituitary LH and FSH contents had increased in both the oil- and the EB injected rats, but had not yet recovered to control values. In rats not subjected to the 5-days pretreatment with LRH EB had a positive effect on the supra-maximally LRH-stimulated secretion of LH and FSH as well as on the non-stimulated secretion of LH. EB had no effect on the non-stimulated secretion of FSH. After 5 days of in vivo pretreatment with LRH only, the in vitro non-stimulated and supra-maximally LRH-stimulated secretion of both LH and FSH were strongly impaired, the effect correlating well with the LRH-induced depletion of the pituitary LH/FSH stores. In such LRH-pretreated rats EB had on day 5 a negative effect on the (already depressed) LRH-stimulated secretion of LH (not on that of FSH). EB had no effect on the non-stimulated LH/FSH secretion. It could be demonstrated that the negative effect of the combined LRH/EB pretreatment was mainly due to the depressing effect of this treatment on the pituitary LH and FSH stores: the effect of oestradiol on the pituitary LRH-responsiveness (release as related to pituitary gonadotrophin content) remained positive. In LRH-pretreated rats, however, this positive effect of EB was smaller than in rats not pretreated with LRH. Four days after removal of the minipumps there was again a positive effect of EB on the LRH-stimulated secretion of LH and FSH as well as on the non-stimulated secretion of LH. The positive effect of EB on the pituitary LRH-responsiveness was as strong as in rats which had not been exposed to exogenous LRH. The non-stimulated secretion of FSH was again not affected by EB. The results demonstrate that the effect of EB on the oestrogen-sensitive components of gonadotrophin secretion consists of two components: an effect on the pituitary LRH-responsiveness proper, and an effect on the pituitary LH/FSH stores. The magnitude of the effect of EB on the LRH-responsiveness is LRH dependent: it is very weak (almost zero) in LRH-pretreated rats, but strong in rats not exposed to LRH as well as in rats of which the LRH-pretreatment was stopped 4 days previously. Similarly, the effect of EB on the pituitary LH and FSH stores is LRH-dependent: in the absence of LRH, EB has no influence on the contents of these stores, but EB can potentiate the depleting effect of LRH on the LH/FSH-stores. Also this effect disappear after cessation of the LRH-pretreatment.
