Binder Film Thickness Effect on Aggregate Contact Behavior
This study presents a study on the binder film thickness effect on aggregate contact behavior. As a three-phase material composed of aggregates, asphalt binder and air voids, asphalt mixture could be considered as a visco-elastic material in the low stress level. Since the behavior of the mixture …

Characterization of Spin Coated Polymers in Nano-environments as a Function of Film Thickness
… surface and the air interface, the thinner films required for such applications have distinctly different properties than those of the well-defined bulk systems. The goal of the current research is to elucidate the behavior of ultrathin films. Two separate studies were performed on thin …

The effect of film thickness on the behavior of polystyrene-coated steel disks under fretting conditions
… of this study was to evaluate the effect of film thickness on a polystyrene coating used to prevent fretting corrosion in a steel-on-steel system. The polystyrene coating was applied to a 1045 steel disk and fretted against a 52100 steel ball. Two sets of experiments were employed. The first …
