Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Filler plays a significant role in mastic cohesion and adhesion between aggregate–asphalt binder in asphalt mixes. In the majority of research on investigating moisture damage based on thermodynamic concepts, little attention has been given to the role of filler. In the present study, 20 different combinations of asphalt mixes made with 4 filler types (stone powder, hydrated lime, calcium carbonate and portland cement), with two types of asphalt binder (60–70 and 85–100), and two types of aggregate (limestone and granite) were used. Then thermodynamic parameters (with and without considering the effect of filler) were calculated and the relationship between these parameters and test results of moisture sensitivity of asphalt mixes was investigated using statistical analyses. Results obtained by thermodynamic parameters show that only stone powder filler caused an increase in free energy of adhesion between base asphalt binder and aggregates, and other fillers reduced free energy of adhesion. The maximum amount of debonding energy in samples made by asphalt binder 60–70, was related to mastics containing calcium carbonate and hydrated lime fillers, and in asphalt binder 85–100, mastics containing portland cement and calcium carbonate had the maximum amount of debonding energy. However, the minimum amount of debonding energy was related to the mastic containing stone powder. In addition, the results of moisture sensitivity mechanical tests show that samples containing calcium carbonate and hydrated lime fillers had the maximum amount of tensile strength ratio. Finally, the amount of adjusted coefficient of correlation between debonding energy and modified Lottman test results increased from 0.553 in 4 base compounds (without filler) to 0.701 in 16 compounds with filler. The difference in correlation coefficients show the necessity to use the effect of filler on calculating thermodynamic parameters in investigating moisture sensitivity of various asphalt mixes.
