Dr. Ben Cox and fellow team members from the Airfields and Pavements Branch of the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Center's Geotechnical and Structures Laboratory utilize a new technique for creating hot mix asphalt. The researchers demonstrate how induction heating technology, similar to that of a microwave, can be leveraged to repair airfields and pavements throughout the world. This technology is one of many innovations that will be discussed during the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Innovation Summit scheduled in October 2021.
