The production of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (MSWIBA) is substantial and has the potential to replace cement, despite challenges such as complex composition, uneven particle size distribution, and low reactivity. This paper employs sodium silicate activation of MSWIBA composite Ground-granulated Blast Furnace slag (GGBS) to improve the reactivity in preparing composite cementitious materials. It explores the hydration performance of the composite cementitious materials using isothermal calorimetric analysis, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, XRD physical diffraction analysis, and SEM tests. SEM tests were used to explore the hydration properties of the composite gelling. The results show that with an increase in MSWIBA doping, the porosity between the materials increased, the degree of hydration decreased, and the compressive strength decreased. When the sodium silicate concentration increased from 25% to 35%, excessive alkaline material occurred, impacting the alkaline effect. This inhibited particle hydration, leading to a decrease in the degree of hydration and, consequently, the compressive strength. The exothermic process of hydration can be divided into five main stages; quartz and calcite did not fully participate in the hydration reaction, while aluminum did. The vibrational peaks of Si-O-Ti (T = Si and Al) were present in the material. The vibrational peaks of XRD, FTIR, and SEM all indicate the presence of alumosilicate network structures in the hydration products, mainly N-A-S-H and C-A-S-H gels.

The production of municipal solid waste incineration bottom ash (MSWIBA) is very massive and has the potential to replace cement despite the problems of complex composition, uneven particle size distribution, and low reactivity. This paper adopts sodium silicate activation of MSWIBA-slag to improve the reactivity to prepare composite cementitious materials. It explores the hydration performance study of the composite cementitious materials by isothermal calorimetric analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, XRD physical diffraction analysis, and SEM/EDS tests. SEM/EDS tests will be used to explore the hydration properties of the composite gelling. The results showed that with the increase of MSWIBA doping, the porosity between the materials increased, the degree of Hydration decreased, and the compressive strength decreased with the rise of MSWIBA. When sodium silicate increased from 25% to 35%, too much alkaline material occurred over the alkaline effect, which inhibited the Hydration of the particles, and the degree of hydration reaction decreased, and the compressive strength decreased accordingly; the exothermic process of Hydration can be mainly divided into five stages, quartz and calcite did not participate in the hydration reaction completely, and sexual aluminum participated in the hydration reaction. The vibrational peaks of Si-O-Ti (T = Si and Al) were present in the material. The vibrational peaks of XRD, FTIR, and SEM-EDS all indicate the presence of silica-aluminate network structures in the hydration products, mainly N-A-S-H and C-A-S-H gels.

To study the behavior of expressway driver’s lane change in a foggy environment, the driver’s vision is adopted as the index for assessing the lane change behavior. The normalization theory is introduced to analyze the driver’s intention of changing lanes. Using the statistical examination results of the driver’s gaze zones, this paper has analyzed the gaze and glance features of the driver during the change of lanes. Based on the driving condition of changing lanes in foggy environment, the game theory is adopted in the study to elaborate on the strategy equilibrium of the driver’s decision-making in the foggy environment. Moreover, a model is established to analyze the driver’s lane changes under the foggy environment. Through the calibration of parameters and verification of the model, the reliability of the model has been proved. The research findings indicate that the features of the driver’s gaze and glance under circumstances of the fine weather differ from those in the foggy environment, thus laying a theoretical foundation for the safety management of subsequent lane changes in the expressway in foggy environment.

The skid-resisting performance of pavement is a critical factor in traffic safety. Recent studies primarily analyze this behavior by examining the macro or micro texture of the pavement. It is inevitable that skid-resistance declines with time because the texture of pavement deteriorates throughout its service life. The primary objective of this paper is to evaluate the use of different asphalt pavements, varying in resilience, to optimize braking performance on pavement. Based on the systematic dynamics of tire-pavement contact, and analysis of the tire-road coupled friction mechanism and the effect of enlarging the tire-pavement contact area, road skid resistance was investigated by altering the elastic modulus of asphalt pavement. First, this research constructed the kinetic contact model to simulate tire-pavement friction. Next, the following aspects of contact behaviors were studied when braking: tread deformation in the tangential pavement interface, actual tire-pavement contact in the course, and the frictional braking force transmitted from the pavement to the tires. It was observed that with improvements in pavement elasticity, the actual tire-pavement contact area increased, which gives us the ability to effectively strengthen the frictional adhesion of the tire to the pavement. It should not be overlooked that the improvement in skid resistance was caused by an increase in pavement elasticity. This research approach provides a theoretical basis and design reference for the anti-skid research of asphalt pavements.
