Role of mineral filler type and ratio in the rheological, fatigue, and adhesive performance of asphalt mastics
...Show More Authors

Mineral fillers are a fundamental component of asphalt mastic and play a critical role in governing the mechanical performance and durability of flexible pavements. Variations in filler type and dosage can substantially alter mastic stiffness, deformation resistance, fatigue behavior, and adhesion. The objective of this study is to systematically evaluate the influence of mineral filler type and filler-to-asphalt (F/A) ratio on the rheological, fatigue, and adhesive performance of asphalt mastics. Three commonly used fillers; limestone dust, Portland cement, and hydrated lime were investigated at four F/A ratios (0.6, 0.8, 1.0, and 1.2). A comprehensive experimental program was conducted, including conventional binder characterization, Multiple Stress Creep Recovery (MSCR) testing for rutting resistance, Linear Amplitude Sweep (LAS) testing for fatigue performance, and the Blister Method for adhesive bond strength evaluation. Volumetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were employed to support interpretation of filler packing behavior and particle morphology. Statistical analysis using two-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) confirmed that both filler type and filler content significantly influence all evaluated performance indicators. Hydrated lime markedly improved rutting resistance and bond strength but caused severe reductions in fatigue life at higher dosages due to excessive stiffness. In contrast, Portland cement and limestone provided more balanced performance, particularly at intermediate F/A ratios. A Grey Decision Theory (GDT) analysis integrating permanent strain, fatigue life, and bond strength identified the Portland cement mastic at an F/A ratio of 0.8 as the optimal formulation. Future studies are recommended to extend this approach to different binder grades, polymer-modified asphalts, and environmental conditions to further generalize the findings and support performance-based mastic design.

The role of accounting information in making capital budget decisions
...Show More Authors

Faced economic units face the option of restoring the capital budget annually, and the information provided for the preparation of these budgets, including financial and non-financial aspects have an important impact in the numbers of these budgets, and these units differ in the ability of their own accounting systems to maintain this information. The aim of this research is to investigate the volume of accounting information that is relied on and the reasons for the differences between one unit and another in the various economic sectors in the Iraqi environment.

The most important results of the research is the weakness of the adoption of decision makers in the Iraqi environment and lack of sufficient attention in the decision-

The role of environmental stress in fish health: A review
...Show More Authors

Fish are regarded as a crucial indicator of alterations in the aquatic environment due to their position at the apex of the food chain. Monitoring these alterations is crucial for identifying modifications in the aquatic ecosystem. The principal elements influencing fish health are temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, salinity, pesticide contamination, microplastics, and algal presence. These elements substantially influence fish health regarding development, reproduction, respiration, oxygen stress, and the internal enzymes associated with digesting and other metabolic functions. Alterations in global environmental conditions and anthropogenic pollutants result in modifications to fish populations, their lives, and their behavior and
