Evaluating Iraqi Modified Asphalt Concrete Moisture Resistance Based on Strength Ratio and Fracture Energy Parameters by Zahir Noori M. Taki, Alaa H. Abed, Hasan Al-Mosawe

“…It is found that adding 3.5% functionalized polyethylene (PE) polymer to the binder is more effective than adding 4% styrene-butadiene-styrene (SBS) to shift up asphalt PG by two grades to PG 76-16. Furthermore, the viscosity of the binder increased about 200% when using 4% SBS, while there is no significant effect on viscosity when 3.5% PE is used. …”

In situ magnetic-field-assisted bioprinting process using magnetorheological bioink to obtain engineered muscle constructs by Hanjun Hwangbo, SooJung Chae, Dongryeol Ryu, GeunHyung Kim

“…However, achieving successful cell alignment within macroscale 3D cell constructs for skeletal muscle tissue regeneration remains challenging, owing to difficulties in controlling cell arrangement within a low-viscosity hydrogel. Herein, we propose the concept of a magnetorheological bioink to manipulate the cellular arrangement within a low-viscosity hydrogel. …”

Molecular dynamics simulation of film water thickness and properties at different interfaces in partially saturated frozen soil systems by Shuting Ji, Sergio Andres Galindo Torres, Jinfeng Chen, Liang Lei, Ling Li

“…The simulations revealed that as the temperature approaches the melting point, the air-water interface tends to possess a thicker layer of unfrozen water, characterized by a higher diffusion coefficient and lower viscosity. In contrast, the film water near the silica-water interface tends to be thinner and remains relatively unaffected by temperature, with only one twentieth of the diffusion coefficient and nearly 20 times the viscosity observed at the air-water interface. …”
