OverviewAI-generated summary

Anik Roy's research focuses on materials science, specifically investigating the properties and performance of asphalt emulsions and related pavement materials. Roy has explored the comparison of lab-produced asphalt emulsions based on manufacturing equipment type and characterized their thermal and chemical properties using techniques like Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Further work includes the development of new small-scale tests for asphalt emulsion storage stability and assessing the rheological performance of innovative sealant materials using traditional Superpave binder equipment. Roy also investigates the low-temperature performance of sealant-treated asphalt surfaces with the Bending Beam Rheometer and has conducted a comparative life-cycle cost analysis of flexible and rigid pavement systems in Arkansas. Roy collaborates with researchers including Andrew Braham and Jackson Hedden at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
