The warm mix asphalt technology was introduced to breaks through the low reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) ratio in central plant hot recycled engineering. Firstly, performance tests for traditional hot mix asphalt and central plant warm recycled asphalt mixture with different RAP ratios (0%,40%,50%,70%,100%) were conducted. It was concluded that the performance of warm mix asphalt was as good as hot mix asphalt, and the RAP ratio could increase to 60% by central plant warm recycling technology. Then a practical central plant warm recycled engineering with RAP ratio 50% was analyzed. It was concluded that not only the performance of the recycled asphalt mixture met the standard requirements absolutely, but also the compaction quality of the recycled pavement was improved.

Abstract. This project compared the relative performance of professional dancers and nondancers on the Music Apperception Test (MAT; van den Daele, 2014 ), then compared dancers’ performance on the MAT with that on the Thematic Apperception Test (TAT; Murray, 1943 ). The MAT asks respondents to “tell a story to the music” in compositions written to represent basic emotions. Dancers had significantly shorter response latency and were more fluent in storytelling than a comparison group matched for gender and age. Criterion-based evaluation of dancers’ narratives found narrative emotion consistent with music written to portray the emotion, with the majority integrating movement, sensation, and imagery. Approximately half the dancers were significantly more fluent on the MAT than the TAT, while the other half were significantly more fluent on the TAT than the MAT. Dancers who were more fluent on the MAT had a higher proportion of narratives that integrated movement and imagery compared with those more fluent on the TAT. The results were interpreted as consistent with differences observed in neurological studies of auditory and visual processing, educational studies of modality preference, and the cognitive style literature. The MAT provides an assessment tool to complement visually based performance tests in personality appraisal.
