Short-term residual characteristics of ambient-cured green geopolymer mortar exposed to elevated temperatures.

Every structure might be exposed to fire at some point in its lifecycle. The ability of geopolymer composites to withstand the effects of fire damage early before it is put out is of great importance. This study examined the effects of fire on geopolymer composite samples made with high-calcium fly ash and alkaline solution synthesised from waste banana peduncle and silica fume.

A bibliometric analysis of rejuvenators in reclaimed asphalt pavement.

This study looked at the state-of-the-art present knowledge base and trends in the area of using rejuvenators in reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) by systemic analysis and visualisation using VOSviewer and Scopus analyser; a total of 1872 studies were mined from the Scopus database for the purpose of this study. This quantitative approach to the review of literature removes author bias. The study was able to identify keywords and their cluster groups making up of core research domains ((1) asphalt binder composition and properties, (2) reclaimed asphalt mixtures (recycling), (3) reclaimed asphalt performance characteristics, (4) reclaimed asphalt sustainability, (5) rejuvenating agents and their performance, and (6) area of application).
