OverviewAI-generated summary
Sadie Casillas' research focuses on the performance and sustainability of asphalt mixtures. Her work investigates the influence of waste plastics on the volumetric properties and performance of asphalt, exploring methods to incorporate recycled materials into pavement construction. Casillas has also studied the selection of asphalt emulsions for cold in-place recycling applications, developing performance-based approaches to guide material selection.
Her research extends to pavement preservation, including quantifying its impact in Arkansas and demonstrating innovative patching technologies. Casillas employs various analytical techniques, such as Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, to characterize the thermal and chemical properties of asphalt emulsions. She has also examined the effects of material selection and mixture design on fuel-resistant airfield asphalt mixtures and evaluated low-temperature cracking in modified asphalt mixtures. Casillas has 32 publications and 40 citations, with a h-index of 4. She collaborates with Andrew Braham, Anik Roy, Archie Gus Williams, and Tanner Turben at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
