Asphalt mixture is a skeleton filling system consisting of aggregate and asphalt binder. Its performance is directly affected by the internal load transfer mechanism of the skeleton filling system. It is significant to understand the load transfer mechanisms for asphalt mixture design and performance evaluation. The objective of this paper is to review the research progress of the asphalt mixture load transfer mechanism. Firstly, this paper summarizes the test methods used to investigate the load transfer mechanism of asphalt mixtures. Then, an overview of the characterization of load transfer mechanism from three aspects was provided. Next, the indicators capturing contact characteristics, contact force characteristics, and force chain characteristics were compared. Finally, the load transfer mechanism of asphalt mixtures under different loading conditions was discussed. Some recommendations and conclusions in terms of load transfer mechanism characterization and evaluation were given. The related work can provide valuable references for the study of the load transfer mechanism of asphalt mixtures.

Pillar stability has garnered significant attention owing to the effects of pillars on coal resource recovery rate, coal pillar stability, and coal bump risk. This study examined the roadway stability control principles of conventional and yield coal pillars. The conventional coal pillars were designed as load-bearing structures with a high load-bearing capacity to carry most of the abutment load, while yield coal pillars were designed as buffer structures for transferring rapidly increasing abutment loads to adjacent solid coal ribs by progressive deformation.

Case Report of a Traumatic Arthrotomy of the Knee Diagnosed by Ultrasound.

Wilderness Environ Med

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine, Denver Health Hospital, Denver, CO.

In this case report we describe evaluating a patient for a traumatic knee arthrotomy using ultrasound in a resource-limited medical clinic at the base of a ski area. A 23-y-old female presented with a laceration superior to the patella of the left leg. On examination, the wound tracked deep, and providers had concern for traumatic arthrotomy.
