The efficient recovery of bitumen, a highly viscous form of crude oil, poses significant technical and economic challenges. In recent years, researchers have developed advanced experimental techniques ...

Sound waves can measure viscosity on the fly. Though viscosity is the degree to which a fluid resists flow, it is more specifically a measure of a fluid's molecular friction. It can be a useful ...

The two main problems that occur in asphalt concrete (tarmac) surfaces are that wheel ruts are formed when the material is too soft, or that the surface cracks when too hard. Climate Considerations In ...
