This book provides an overview of the use of various waste materials in pavement construction and their potential impact on sustainable infrastructure development. It explores the use of waste materials as alternatives to traditional pavement materials like asphalt and concrete. It discusses the properties and performance of various waste materials and their applications in pavement construction, highlighting the economic and environmental benefits such as reduced greenhouse gas emissions, lower construction costs, and enhanced durability and longevity of pavements. Features: Explores the use of waste materials such as recycled plastics, rubber, glass, and other industrial by-products as alternatives to traditional pavement materials. Provides detailed guidance on the selection, design, and implementation of waste materials. Focuses on the practical application of waste materials in pavement construction. Reviews bio-oils and focuses on plastics from different sources. Includes case studies on waste materials used in pavement structure. This book is aimed at researchers and graduate students in pavement and civil engineering.

Land use and water resources are two major environmental issues which necessitate conservation, management, and maintenance practices through the use of various engineering techniques. Water scientists and environmental engineers must address the various aspects of flood control, soil conservation, rainfall-runoff processes, and groundwater hydrology. Watershed Management and Applications of AI provides the necessary principles of hydrology to provide practical strategies useful for the planning, design, and management of watersheds. The book also synthesizes novel new approaches, such as hydrological applications of machine learning using neural networks to predict runoff and using artificial intelligence for the prediction of groundwater fluctuations. Features: Presents hydrologic analysis and design along with soil conservation practices through proper watershed management techniques Provides analysis of land erosion and sediment transport in watersheds from small to large scale Includes estimations for runoff using different methodologies with systematic approaches for each Discusses water harvesting and development of water yield catchmentsThis book will be a valuable resource for students in hydrology courses, environmental consultants, water resource engineers, and researchers in related water science and engineering fields.
