Recycled Waste Tires Management in Constructions by Hamid, Salma Mohamed

“…The LCCA results show that the rubberized concrete (RC2), obtained by replacing 5% of aggregate and mixing it with seawater, is more cost-effective than RC1, with a cost savings of 30%.LCCA data were acquired by investigating thirteen concrete mixes (a control mix; 5%, 10%, and 20% rubber aggregate substitutions mixed with freshwater; and 0%, 5%, and 10% rubber aggregate substitutions mixed with seawater). …”

Evacuation under flooded conditions: Experimental investigation of the influence of water depth on walking behaviors by Dias, Charitha

“…To propose guidelines for evacuation planning during floods and to develop simulation tools, which can be used in evacuation planning, empirical data are needed under different flooding conditions. However, there is a lack of data and studies on such aspects. This study examines the influence of water depth on human walking behaviors under hydrostatic conditions using the data collected through a controlled laboratory experiment. …”
