Language Learning through Thought, Memory, Imagination, and Reading
Authors: Manolescu Dan
Published: April 2023

The present article aims to estimate the value of language learning through a quick review of the learning process and with a focus on “accumulated knowledge” and “the ability to learn.” Following the opinions of researchers and linguists, we can also argue that the whole history of human culture – “of intelligence and morality, folly and superstition, ritual, language, and the arts” – is what makes us human. The development of language is presented in its relation to thought, and memory, with the concept of imagination added to enhance their prowess. In other words, we might say that the cultivation of imagination should be the chief aim of education. One major idea in this context is that we can learn a lot from history, where language has been used to preserve old traditions and customs, and simultaneously foster new ideas. Another seemingly debatable approach would be the idea that clarity in teaching and learning might have a significant impact on learners, and at same time function as a springboard for other academic skills. In conclusion, teachers should encourage students to be inspired and motivated to discover the powers of wonder and imagination. Reading would be the one of the best ways to experience magic because books can inspire teachers to cultivate the same human values and life lessons in our students.

The article presents a historical analysis of the development of the museum at the Institute of Hygiene at the Devichye Pole and its use in the educational process with students. There is shown the leading role of F.F. Erisman in the formation of this museum, opened in 1890 at the Institute of Hygiene of the Imperial Moscow University. Main factors that influenced the expansion of the museum exposition in the pre-war years were established to be the inclusion of the I Moscow Medical Institute in 1935. The Institute of the Organization of Health and Social Hygiene, together with its museum fund, and the completion of construction in 1936 of the superstructure over the building of the Institute of Hygiene, in connection with which the total construction cubic capacity of its four-storey building exceeded 62 000 m3 and provided the necessary premises for all units located in it. At the beginning of the Great Patriotic War (1941–1945), the building of the Institute of Hygiene was mothballed and subsequently needed for the repairment. The expositions in it after the war were transferred to the medical museums of Moscow. Taking into account the importance of the museum exposition in the educational process with students, in 2020 the museum was recreated at the F.F. Erisman Institute of Public Health of the Sechenov University and continues to be successfully used by preventive departments in the educational process.

Published: April 2023

Objective. Research on fractures has increased rapidly in India in recent years, but no bibliometric study has been performed on this subject. From the Scopus database, we aimed to examine the bibliometric characteristics, trends, and current status of India’s fracture research and publications between 1989 and 2022.
Design/Methodology/Approach. We identified the key organizations, authors, journals, and important keywords, besides studying and visualizing their collaborative interactions using VOSviewer and Biblioshyn software.
Results/Discussion. The 1046 India fractures research publications were identified and cited 8927 times. External funding was received by 1.91%, and 11.95% had international collaboration. The 894 authors from 304 organizations and publishing in 88 journals were involved in India’s fracture research. The most productive organization was AIIMS, New Delhi. The most impactful organization was JIPMER, Pondicherry; the most productive author was V. Trikha. The most productive journal was the Indian Journal of Orthopaedics (n=257), and the most impactful journal was Acta Orthopaedica. Femur was the top anatomical location studied for fracture research, followed by Humerus and Tibia. Hip fractures were the most emphasized fracture research areas in older people, in contrast to Humerus, and Femur fracture research in adolescents and children. Delhi was the epicentre of research.
Conclusion. This study is the first comprehensive bibliometric analysis of India’s fracture research over 30 years. It provided an insight into its current and past research status and hopes to guide scholars to understand research frontiers and directions in fracture-related research.

Résumé

La bonne direction d’un établissement scolaire requiert des compétences spécifiques. L’objet de notre article est d’exposer les différentes compétences dont les chefs d’établissements ont besoin afin de développer un leadership efficace pour l’émergence et le bon fonctionnement des établissements qu’ils ont à charge. La pertinence des compétences génériques des chefs d’établissement dans le cadre d’une formation initiale et continue ainsi que d’un statut légal reconnu dans le but d'exercer pleinement leur leadership pédagogique sera relevée dans cet article. Nous nous appuyons sur une démarche d’analyse de la littérature et mobilisons nos connaissances empiriques en administration scolaire. La démarche méthodologique utilisée est celle d’une revue documentaire permettant de parcourir les approches de gouvernance scolaire, de les discuter et enfin de les mettre en relation avec les compétences génériques des chefs d’établissements. Au total, trois modes de gouvernance scolaire ont été relevés dans la littérature à savoir : l’Ancienne Administration Publique, la Nouvelle Gestion Publique et l’Apprentissage Organisationnel. L’analyse de la littérature a montré qu’il existe un problème de définition des compétences génériques des chefs d’établissement dans un cadre légal, surtout dans les pays en développement. Il est donc important de mieux définir leurs rôles et responsabilités dans les établissements ainsi que des compétences requises en proposant notamment des formations continues en gestion d’établissement.

Abstract

Good school management requires specific skills. The purpose of this article is to outline the various skills that school principals need in order to develop effective leadership for the emergence and proper functioning of the institutions for which they are responsible. The relevance of generic competencies for headteachers in the context of initial and continuing training and a recognized legal status in order to fully exercise their pedagogical leadership will be highlighted in this article. We use an approach based on a literature review and mobilize our empirical knowledge in school administration. The methodological approach used is a literature review that makes it possible to examine the approaches to school governance, to discuss them and finally to relate them to the generic competencies of school principals. In total, three modes of school governance were identified: Old Public Administration, New Public Management and Organizational Learning. The analysis of the reviews showed that there is a problem in defining the generic competencies of head teachers within a legal framework, especially in developing countries. It is therefore to better define their roles and responsibilities in schools and the competencies required, including continuous training in school management.

Published: April 2023

The rise in the incidence of heart diseases is a major concern in the field of healthcare, and it is imperative to diagnose and predict any potential risk of heart disease accurately and efficiently. To address this issue, researchers have Created a system for predicting the probability of heart disease by utilizing the medical history of patients. The system uses different algorithms based on machine learning techniques such as XGBoost, Random Forest Classifier and KNN to classify patients based on various medical attributes, including age, gender, blood pressure, cholesterol levels, and other habits. The model proposed is intended to improve the accuracy of predicting heart disease in individuals, and it has shown promising results in doing so.Various performance metrics, including accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score, were used to evaluate the model's accuracy, and it was found to be more accurate than previous classifiers such as naive bayes. The system managed to accurately identify individuals who prone to heart disease, which could help healthcare providers take preventive measures to reduce the incidence of heart disease. Overall, the heart disease detection system has significant implications for improving medical care and reducing the costs associated with heart disease. It has the potential to assist healthcare providers in making better-informed decisions regarding patient care, identify patients who have an elevated risk of developing heart disease, and provide them with targeted interventions to reduce the risk. The suggested model is a valuable resource that can improve the quality of care offered to patients and, in turn, contribute to reducing the prevalence of heart disease.
Memory Culture of the Anti-Leftist Violence in Indonesia
Authors: Tjandra Leksana Grace
Published: April 2023

This book examines how community remembers one of the most gruesome acts of violence in the 20th century: the anti-communist violence in 1965 in Indonesia. Through a case study in a rural district in East Java, this research presents complexities of memory culture of violence. These memories are not exclusively determined by the state’s repressive memory project, but are actually embedded in intricate social relations and local context where the violence occurred. What people remember, forget, or silenced is part of the continuous negotiation to claim one’s right, to relate to the state, and to be Indonesian citizen. This book redefines the politics of memory – that it does not necessarily appear in formal arenas, but actually lies in the intricate web of local dynamics, often involving transactional and clientelistic practices.

Is the oft-told tale of how young Alfred won his mother’s book too good
to be true? A mere folk tale about a youngest son who alone succeeds in
a quest? Or is it Alfred’s own childhood memory, an authentic relic of his
psyche? Guided by the spirit of redaction criticism as practiced by biblical
scholars in the second half of the twentieth century, this chapter is a close
reading of the fable as parable, as a pericope which circulated orally before
it was redacted by Asser. It concludes that Asser’s redaction condenses
Alfred’s modus vitae and the curve of his destiny into a gem, a hagiographic
figura too good to be false. Where does it find its typological fulfillment?
The effect of aspirin therapy on the increasing of Barthel Index score in stroke patients
Authors: Alifiar Ilham , Kamal Hilda Fitria , Sukmawan Yedy Purwandy
Published: April 2023

Stroke, a disorder of nervous system function, is caused by impaired blood circulation to the brain. Post-stroke patients often receive aspirin therapy, yet many still require assistance from others for daily activities. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of aspirin therapy on functional improvement in stroke patients at RSUD Dr. Soekardjo Tasikmalaya, using the Barthel Index score as a measure of patients' ability to perform activities of daily living. A retrospective, descriptive observational approach was employed, analyzing data from stroke patients who underwent aspirin therapy between February and May 2019. The study assessed patients' functional status before and after aspirin therapy, focusing on the level of dependence. Pre-test results indicated that 80.97% of patients fell within the mild dependence category, while 19.03% were classified as moderately dependent. After undergoing aspirin therapy, post-test results revealed a substantial improvement in patients’ functional status. Only 4.76% of patients remained in the moderate dependence category, while a remarkable 95.24% transitioned to the independent range. These findings suggest that aspirin therapy may play a crucial role in enhancing the functional recovery of stroke patients, potentially promoting a higher level of independence and improved quality of life.

Published: April 2023

Diferentes estudios ponen de manifiesto la relación entre psicopatía subclínica y las estrategias de distanciamiento y evitación que impiden la formación de vínculos emocionales estables y duraderos en la pareja. El estudio analiza la psicopatía subclínica y el estilo de relación/tipo de amor en una muestra de 1289 universitarios, para determinar su frecuencia, así como la relación entre la psicopatía y el estilo de relación del alumnado universitario. Se utilizó el “Cuestionario de psicopatía integrada/subclínica” (CUPIS) y la “Escala triangular del amor” (TLS). Se encontró que un importante porcentaje de universitarios presentan rasgos que caracterizan a la psicopatía subclínica. Además, a mayor puntuación en psicopatía menor es la intimidad, la pasión y el compromiso en la relación de pareja del alumnado universitario. Asimismo, constatamos que la psicopatía subclínica predice en mayor medida la falta de intimidad y compromiso en las relaciones íntimas. En conclusión, destacamos que en psicopatía subclínica se presentan bajos patrones de intimidad y compromiso en las relaciones, por lo que es probable que estas no sean estables en el tiempo.
Self-reported psychotic-like experiences: differences by age and associated psychopathology

Published: April 2023

This study aims to explore the differences in psychopathological symptoms that may exist in the general adult population with or without psychotic-like experiences (PLEs), depending on the age range. The presence of PLEs, self-reported general psychopathological symptomatology, and different sociodemographic and psychosocial characteristics were assessed in 216 participants without any record of personal psychiatric antecedents. The sample was divided into young adults (18-35 years) and mature adults (36-60 years). The young adults showed a higher expression of PLEs (33.6%). The mature adults with PLEs presented more psychopathological symptoms in the dimensions of hostility-anger, somatization, depression, and anxiety than mature adults without PLEs. Young adults with PLEs showed significantly more symptoms in the same dimensions, and in the obsession-compulsion dimensions, paranoid ideation, and psychoticism, than participants of this age without PLEs. PLEs are more frequent in people between 18-35 years old; however, PLEs can be present in different age ranges and could serve as an alert to high levels of affective and anger-hostility symptoms.

Published: April 2023

The goal of this study was to analyze the role of stress factors and coping strategies in explaining the burden and depression of family caregivers of people diagnosed with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder through a longitudinal design. An evaluation was made of thirty patients with a diagnosis on the spectrum of schizophrenia and thirty informal caregivers. Participants were assessed at three successive moments: baseline, after 5 months, and after 10 months. A decrease in caregivers´ levels of subjective burden across time was found. At longitudinal level, most of the caregivers’ coping strategies showed a relevant relationship with subjective burden and depression at some assessment time. In addition, subjective burden and depression showed a higher relationship with the patient´s negative symptomatology. At longitudinal level, avoidant and resignation showed a relevant relationship with subjective burden and depression. The changes in the evaluation of the demands that the disorder placed on the caregivers and in their coping strategies suggest the development of a process of adaptation to the disorder by the caregiver.

Published: April 2023

Older age is associated with a higher prevalence of cognitive and affective decline than in the younger population. For this reason, considering the increasing population aging, and with the continuous growth of this demographic, it is necessary to consider better types of interventions to prevent such decline from manifesting. This study measures the effectiveness of the “Positive reminiscence program” (REMPOS), a non-pharmacological therapy that increases life quality in older people, with a pre-post randomized design with control group in three types of aging: healthy aging (n= 24), mild cognitive impairment (n= 22) and Alzheimer’s Disease (n= 21). The results of the experimental groups revealed higher cognitive levels, lower depressive symptoms, higher specific positive memories recall, and higher life satisfaction after intervention. This study extends the evidence of effectiveness of positive reminiscence interventions for older adults in other cultural backgrounds and types of aging.

Abstract. New global nitric oxide (NO) volume mixing ratio and lower-thermospheric temperature data products, retrieved from Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) spectra with the Institute of Meteorology and Climate Research and Instituto de Astrofísica de Andalucía (IMK-IAA) MIPAS data processor, have been released. The dataset covers the entire Envisat mission lifetime and includes retrieval results from all MIPAS observation modes. The data are based on European Space Agency (ESA) version 8 calibration and were processed using an improved retrieval approach compared to previous versions, specifically regarding the choice and construction of the a priori and atmospheric parameter profiles, the treatment of horizontal inhomogeneities, the treatment of the radiance offset correction, and the selection of optimized numerical settings. NO retrieval errors in individual observations are dominated by measurement noise and range from 5 % to 50 % in the stratosphere and thermosphere and reach 40 % to 90 % in the mesosphere. Systematic errors are typically within 10 %–30 %. Lower-thermospheric temperature errors are 5 to 50 K with a systematic component of around 20 K, the latter being dominated by non-thermodynamic equilibrium (non-LTE)-related uncertainties. NO data from different observation modes are consistent within 5 %–10 %. MIPAS version 8 temperatures have a better representation of the diurnal tide in the lower thermosphere compared to previous data versions. The new MIPAS temperatures are systematically warmer than results from the empirical US Naval Research Laboratory Mass Spectrometer Incoherent Scatter Radar (NRLMSIS) version 2.0 model by 30 to 80 K in the 100–120 km region and are colder above.

Abstract. Detecting and quantifying CH4 gas emissions at industrial facilities is an important goal for being able to reduce these emissions. The nature of CH4 emissions through “leaks” is episodic and spatially variable, making their monitoring a complex task; this is partly being addressed by atmospheric surveys with various types of instruments. Continuous records are preferable to snapshot surveys for monitoring a site, and one solution would be to deploy a permanent network of sensors. Deploying such a network with research-level instruments is expensive, so low-cost and low-power sensors could be a good alternative. However, low cost usually entails lower accuracy and the existence of sensor drifts and cross-sensitivity to other gases and environmental parameters. Here we present four tests conducted with two types of Figaro® Taguchi gas sensors (TGSs) in a laboratory experiment. The sensors were exposed to ambient air and peaks of CH4 concentrations. We assembled four chambers, each containing one TGS sensor of each type. The first test consisted in comparing parametric and non-parametric models to reconstruct the CH4 peak signal from observations of the voltage variations of TGS sensors. The obtained relative accuracy is better than 10 % to reconstruct the maximum amplitude of peaks (RMSE ≤2 ppm). Polynomial regression and multilayer perceptron (MLP) models gave the highest performances for one type of sensor (TGS 2611C, RMSE =0.9 ppm) and for the combination of two sensors (TGS 2611C + TGS 2611E, RMSE =0.8 ppm), with a training set size of 70 % of the total observations. In the second test, we compared the performance of the same models with a reduced training set. To reduce the size of the training set, we employed a stratification of the data into clusters of peaks that allowed us to keep the same model performances with only 25 % of the data to train the models. The third test consisted of detecting the effects of age in the sensors after 6 months of continuous measurements. We observed performance degradation through our models of between 0.6 and 0.8 ppm. In the final test, we assessed the capability of a model to be transferred between chambers in the same type of sensor and found that it is only possible to transfer models if the target range of variation of CH4 is similar to the one on which the model was trained.

Abstract. For over 6-months, the 2014–2015 effusive eruption at Holuhraun, Iceland injected considerable amounts of sulphur dioxide (SO2) into the lower troposphere with a daily rate of up to one-third of the global emission rate causing extensive air pollution across Europe. The large injection of SO2, which oxidises to form sulphate aerosol (SO42−), provides a natural experiment offering an ideal opportunity to scrutinise state-of-the-art general circulation models (GCMs) representation of aerosol-cloud interactions (ACIs). Here we present Part 1 of a two-part model inter-comparison using the Holuhraun eruption as a framework to analyse ACIs. We use SO2 retrievals from the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) instrument and ground-based measurements of SO2 and SO42− mass concentrations across Europe in conjunction with trajectory analysis using the Hybrid Single Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model to assess the spatial and chemical evolution of the volcanic plume as simulated by 5 GCMs and a chemical transport model (CTM). IASI retrievals of plume altitude and SO2 column load reveal that the volcanic perturbation is largely contained within the lower troposphere and that the spatial evolution and vertical variability of the plume is reasonably well captured by the models, although the models underestimate the mean plume altitude. HYSPLIT trajectories are used to attribute to Holuhraun emissions 184 instances of elevated sulphurous surface mass concentrations recorded at 22 air monitoring stations across Europe. Comparisons with the simulated concentrations show that the models underestimate the elevated SO2 concentrations observed at stations closer to Holuhraun whilst overestimating those observed further away. Using a biexponential function to describe the decay of observed surface mass concentration ratios of SO2-to-SO42− with plume age, in-plume gas-phase and aqueous-phase oxidation rates are estimated as 0.031 ± 0.002 h−1 and 0.22 ± 0.16 h−1 respectively with a near-vent ratio of 31 ± 4 [μgm−3 of SO2 / ugm−3 of SO42−]. The derived gas-phase oxidation rates from the models are all lower than the observed estimate, whilst the majority of the aqueous-phase oxidation rates agree with the observed rate. This suggests that the simulated plumes capture the observed chemical behaviour in the young plume (when aqueous-phase oxidation is dominant), yet not in the mature plume (when gas-phase oxidation is dominant). Overall, despite their coarse resolution, the 6 models show reasonable skill in capturing the spatial and chemical evolution of the Holuhraun plume which is essential when exploring the eruption impact on ACIs in the second part of this study.
Deoxygenation of the Gulf of Mexico thermocline linked to a decrease in the detachment frequency of Loop Current Eddies
Authors: Quintanilla José Gerardo , Herguera Juan Carlos , Sheinbaum Julio
Published: April 2023

Abstract. This study presents an oxygen time series of the Gulf Mexico deep water region spanning from 2010 to 2019 using data from 6 oceanographic cruises and one ARGO buoy. The data suggest a deoxygenation trend in the thermocline of the Gulf of Mexico. This deoxygenation trend seems to be connected to a reduction in the number of eddies that detached from the Loop Current from 2010 to 2019 observed with altimetry data from the last two decades, and although the average size of the mesoscale structures shows a slight increase, the average detached area per year almost halved from the 2000–2010 decade to the 2010–2020 decade. Using the oxygen measurements and the altimetry data, a simple box model was formulated to reproduce the measured oxygen temporal variability in the GoM main thermocline from 2000 to 2020. The results from the box model suggest that an average detached Loop Current Eddy area of about 90 000 km2 per year is needed in order to maintain constant oxygen levels in the main thermocline waters. This threshold wasn’t reached during the 2010 to 2020 decade and if the LCE detachment area per year continues to decrease in the future, oxygen concentrations in the Gulf of Mexico thermocline might continue to fall with still unknown effects in the ecological web structure at these depths.
Ground-based noontime D-region electron density climatology over northern Norway
Authors: Renkwitz Toralf , Sivakandan Mani , Jaen Juliana , Singer Werner
Published: April 2023

Abstract. The bottom part of the earth’s ionosphere is the so-called D-region, which is typically less intense than the upper regions. Despite the comparably lower electron number density, the ionization state of the D-region has a significant influence on signal absorption for propagating lower to medium radio frequencies. We present local noon climatologies of electron number density in the middle atmosphere at high latitudes as observed by an active radar experiment. The radar measurements cover nine years from the solar maximum of cycle 24 to the beginning of cycle 25. Reliable electron densities are derived by employing signal processing, applying interferometry methods, and the Faraday International Reference Ionosphere (FIRI) model. For all years a consistent spring-autumn asymmetry of the electron number density pattern as well as a sharp decrease at the beginning of October was found. These findings are consistent with VLF studies showing equivalent signatures for nearby propagation paths. It has been suggested that the meridional circulation associated with downwelling in winter could cause enhanced electron densities through NO transport. However, this mechanism lacks to explain the reduction in electron density in early October.

Abstract. The northwestern Tropical Atlantic Ocean is a turbulent region, filled with mesoscale eddies and regional currents. In this intense dynamical context, several water masses with thermohaline characteristics of different origins are advected, mixed, and stirred at the surface and at depth. The EUREC4A-OA/ATOMIC experiment that took place in January and February 2020 was dedicated to assessing the processes at play in this region, especially the interaction between the ocean and the atmosphere. For that reason, four oceanographic vessels and different autonomous platforms measured properties near the air–sea interface and acquired thousands of upper-ocean (up to 400–2000 m depth) profiles. However, each device had its own observing capability, varying from deep measurements acquired during vessel stations to shipboard underway near-surface observations and measurements from autonomous and uncrewed systems (such as Saildrones). These observations were undertaken with a specific sampling strategy guided by near-real-time satellite maps and adapted every half day, based on the process that was investigated. These processes were characterized by different spatiotemporal scales, from mesoscale eddies, with diameters exceeding 100 km, to submesoscale filaments of 1 km width. This article describes the datasets gathered from the different devices and how the data were calibrated and validated. In order to ensure an overall consistency, the platforms' datasets are cross-validated using a hierarchy of instruments defined by their own specificity and calibration procedures. This has enabled the quantification of the uncertainty in the measured parameters when different datasets are used together, e.g., https://doi.org/10.17882/92071 (L'Hégaret et al., 2020a).

DRIVING ETHNICITY THROUGH INSTRUMENTALISM: GENESIS OF SINDHUDESH MOVEMENT
Authors: Arslan Bin Shahid, Zara Qurban
Published: April 2023

This research article examines the conditions under which Sindhudesh Movement gained popularity and initiated its true struggle on lingual basis along with economic deprivation and cultural discrimination after the separation of Bangladesh from Pakistan in 1971. Paul Brass’s theory of Instrumentalism has been briefly employed to give to understand how elites use population falling in the periphery of the society to ensure their stature and power by translating their grievances into discrimination and ultimately mobilizing them to launch a struggle. Sindhudesh has more to it than just looking at its successes and failures. This research article sketches out why Sindhudesh gained status, and how elites have been using Sindhi nationalism, ethnicity and identity as a tool and an “instrument” to effectively attain their interests by the help of secondary research sources. The research paper concludes Sindhudesh have been used as an “ethnic card” by political units and elites to fulfil their interests

Authors: Rolandsgard Natalie , Amengual Christina Kvamme , Madsen Ole Jacob
Published: April 2023

Background: Openness about mental disorders has increased in recent decades. How do youths understand the ethos of openness about mental illness?

Method: In this qualitative study, we conducted 15 semi-structured interviews and three focus groups with young adults aged 16–19, the majority recruited from psychology classes in upper secondary school. Thematic analysis was used to analyze data.

Results: The participants shared the widespread perception that openness is an effective outlet for negative feelings and a way to combat stigmatization. However, we also found that the participants had more critical understandings of openness. Among the downsides of openness that were highlighted were potential misuse to gain attention, uncertainty regarding the legitimacy of the disease categories applied, and the potential romanticization of mental illness.

Conclusion: The study indicates that a more nuanced, ambivalent attitude towards openness has become widespread among the younger generation.

Keywords: the ethos of openness, mental illness, stigma, shame, pathologizing
The Effect of Using Ceramic Waste Powder as a Filler on the Performance of Bitumen Mastic and Hot Asphalt Mix

Published: April 2023

The use of raw resources is increasing due to the continuous increase of world population and rapid industrialization; while natural resources are being depleted day by day. The use of waste or manufactured materials in road construction has significant environmental and economic benefits.
In this study, the use of ceramic powder as mineral filler in hot asphalt mix as an alter- native method to traditional crushed stone was investigated. The optimal amount of bitumen was determined using Marshall Mix Design method or using four different amounts of bitumen 4.5%, 5% and 5.5%.
With the optimal amount of bitumen, two different types of corroded mineral fillers, ceramic and stone powder with three different filler ratios (4%, 6%, and 8%) were used to prepare asphalt mixture samples. The samples were subjected to Marshall Resistance Test, flow, determination of empty
space percentage and percentage of empty space filled with bitumen and the results were compared. Also, to evaluate the type and amount of filler on the performance of bitumen, penetration degree test, softening point and ductility test of pure bitumen and bitumen containing two materials
of calcareous filler and ceramic powder with different percentages were performed. The results show that the Marshall and flow strength of mixtures containing calcareous filler is about 5% higher and 12% less than the mixture containing the waste filler, respectively, and with increasing the
percentage of filler in asphalt samples, the average degree of penetration and elasticity are about 30% and 4.5%, respectively decreases and softening point increases 7%; These changes are more severe in asphalt samples containing calcareous fillers. In general, it can be concluded that ceramic
waste powder can be used in asphalt mixture as a mineral filler to replace crushed rock dust, because the use of this material as filler in road construction is appropriate in terms of economic and environmental factors.
