Call for Papers
The Organising Committee invites researchers, engineers, policymakers, and industry professionals to submit original full research papers for EATA 2027.
The highest-ranked forty papers will be published in a special online issue of the International Journal of Road Materials and Pavement Design and presented at the conference. Tentatively, twenty-four papers will be selected for traditional 20-minute podium presentations, while sixteen papers will be concisely presented (7 min) and further discussed in two rounds of parallel one-hour interactive sessions designed to encourage greater audience engagement and exchange of ideas.
Submissions are invited on, but not limited to, the following topics:
- Advanced laboratory testing and characterisation of asphalt materials
- Binder modification and performance enhancement
- Bio-based solutions for asphalt pavements
- Incorporation of innovative, alternative, and waste-derived materials
- Recycling technologies and circular use of materials
- Advanced modelling, simulation, and performance prediction
- Digitalisation and artificial intelligence in pavement applications
- Data-driven pavement management and infrastructure analytics
- Field monitoring, instrumentation, and smart pavements
- Pavement maintenance, rehabilitation, and preservation strategies
- Green public procurement, circularity, and life-cycle thinking
- Economic, environmental, and social assessment of road infrastructure
- Low-carbon, net-zero emissions, and decarbonisation pathways
- Pavement surface characteristics and functional pavements
- Asphalt pavement resilience and climate adaptation
- Innovations in specifications, design, production, and construction
More information in September 2026.
