Visschedijk, A. (author), Van de Ven, F.H.M. (author)On September 6th of last year the Greater New Orleans Urban Water Plan (UWP) was presented. A comprehensive plan which addresses flooding caused by heavy rainfall and soil subsidence caused by excessive drainage. Every year parts of the Greater New Orleans Area flood due to severe rainfall events in spring and summer. New Orleans receives an...journal article 2015

Boogaard, F.C. (author), Lucke, T. (author), Van de Giesen, N.C. (author), Van de Ven, F.H.M. (author)Permeable pavements are a type of sustainable urban drainage system (SUDS) technique that are used around the world to infiltrate and treat urban stormwater runoff and to minimize runoff volumes. Urban stormwater runoff contains significant concentrations of suspended sediments that can cause clogging and reduce the infiltration capacity and...journal article 2014

Boogaard, F.C. (author), Van de Ven, F. (author), Langeveld, J.G. (author), Van de Giesen, N. (author)Stormwaters, flowing into storm sewers, are known to significantly increase the annual pollutant loads entering urban receiving waters and this results in significant degradation of the receiving water quality. Knowledge of the characteristics of stormwater pollution enables urban planners to incorporate the most appropriate stormwater...journal article 2014

Nahar, S.N. (author), Mohajeri, M. (author), Schmets, A.J.M. (author), Scarpas, T. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Schitter, G. (author)One of the challenges in designing recycled asphalt mixtures with a high amount of RAP is to estimate the blending degree between RAP binder and the added virgin bitumen. The extent of blending is crucial in this case as asphalt concrete response is influenced by the final binder properties. This paper focuses on the evaluation of interaction...journal article 2013

Li, M. (author), Van Keulen, W. (author), Ceylan, H. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Molenaar, A.A.A. (author)This paper investigates changes in tire/pavement noise caused by variations in the road surface characteristics. This research is based on the analysis of noise and surface characteristics collected from sections with 25 mm thickness thin layer surfacings in the Netherlands. Investigations are first performed on the measured noise levels in 1...journal article 2013

(author)Reclaimed Asphalt (RA) is one of the largest fractions of raw materials used in road construction today. Probably over 90% of the total RA in the Netherlands is being reused in new asphalt constructions. RA contains aggregates coated with very hard bitumen (penetration grade of 10-20). During service, the bituminous binder loses its flexibility...conference paper 2013

(author)The paper deals with the problem of thermal fatigue cycles phenomenon, which affects the performance of flexible pavement. The purpose of the paper is to extent the knowledge on the rheology of polymer modified bitumen which was affected by cycles of thermal fatigue. The aim of this research is to determine the rheological components and their...journal article 2013

Pramesti, F.P. (author), Molenaar, A.A.A. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author)To be able to devise optimum strategies for maintenance and rehabilitation, it is essential to formulate an accurate prediction of pavement life and its maintenance needs. One of the pavement life prediction methods is based on the pavement's capability to sustain fatigue. If it were possible to have a prediction that closely represent what is...journal article 2013

(author)The traffic volume and the number of heavy vehicles are growing enormously nowadays. There is a need for designing a durable asphalt pavement with innovative technologies. Pavement structures and materials with self healing and self repairing capability are believed to be very useful in such a system. This paper is aiming to understand the self...conference paper 2012

Qiu, J. (author), Molenaar, A.A.A. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author), Wu, S. (author), Yu, J. (author)Self healing of asphalt mixes is known for more than four decades. However, it is a complex phenomenon which depends on the duration of the rest period, temperature, crack size, etc. In order to quantify the self healing behaviour of asphalt mixes, a test setup was proposed in this research using an asphalt beam on an elastic foundation. Within...journal article 2012

Van den Bergh, W. (author), Van de Ven, M.F.C. (author)For asphalt pavement design in Belgium, healing is taken into account as a standard shift factor, representing the effect of rest periods between loadings of traffic. Because nowadays Reclaimed Asphalt Aggregate (RA) is widely used in hot mixtures, a new validation of the healing factor is needed. Given the lack of test results and a standard...journal article 2012

Qiu, J. (author), Van de Ven, M. (author), Wu, S. (author), Yu, J. (author), Molenaar, A. (author)The self-healing capability of bituminous materials has been known for many years. Researches were mostly focused on the self healing behaviour during load repetitions. The tests are either time consuming and/or complex. In this paper, a simple self healing test procedure is presented combining the fracture-healing-re-fracture test (FHR) with...journal article 2012
