Artificial Intelligence-Assisted Multi-Objective Optimization of Agricultural Biomass-Reinforced Polymer Composites
Abstract: Agricultural biomass can reduce the environmental burden of polymer composites, yet its heterogeneous structure creates competing effects on strength, moisture resistance, density, and process ability. This study developed an artificial intelligence-assisted framework for balanced composite formulation. Experimental data of agricultural biomass reinforced polymer composites were gathered, harmonized and validated using leakage-controlled validation. The mechanical and physical properties were predicted by artificial neural networks and conventional regression models. Explainable analysis gave …

Improving Highway Surface Course Properties of Asphalt Concrete for Heavy Traffic Loading using Mineral Fillers
Abstract: Failure signs seen on both rigid and flexible pavement as distresses is most often instigated by mix properties of the surface due to many factors. Traffic loading, Stripping or raveling is another possible cause of such effects. Stripping occurs when poor adhesion between asphalt cement and aggregate allows the aggregate at the surface to dislodge. As a result, mineral fillers in hot-mix asphalt concrete to obtain certain desirable properties has …
