A Monte Carlo approach to competition strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
Variables taken into account in glider flight strategy decisions are modeled. These include height of clouds, distance between thermals, time of day, water ballast, present altitude, weather changes, lift organization, and distance to goal, as well as ...

Dynanics of a vehicle-track coupling system at a rail joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The dynamic behaviour at a rail joint is examined using a two-dimensional vehicle–track coupling model. The track system is described as a finite-length beam resting on a double-layer discrete viscous-elastic foundation.

Hybrid DEM-FDM Modelling of Ballasted Railway Track Performance

open access: yesInfrastructures
The performance of ballasted railway tracks under cyclic loading is a critical issue in urban railway systems, where high traffic frequency and geometric constraints accelerate track degradation, leading to the accumulation of plastic deformations that ...

Collaborative Sampling and Imaging of Phytoplankton Communities by Two Long‐Range Autonomous Underwater Vehicles Using Acoustic Tracking and Messaging

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 1861-1870, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Collaborative operation of multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) can effectively achieve scientific goals that are hard to achieve by independently operated vehicles. Some science payloads are large, expensive, and need to be installed in the vehicle's nose cone. A vehicle can only carry one such payload.

Research on large-scale triaxial tests of TDA-modified ballast with different shapes

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
Ballast mixed with tire-derived aggregate (TDA) is a novel method for improving the track bed, which has advantages of promoting performance of ballasted track infrastructure and enhancing the utilization rate of solid waste.

A suitable approach to resource allocation in biosecurity when considering dependent benefits and costs

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1519-1534, May 2026.
Abstract Optimal allocation of resources to the management of biosecurity risk, threatened species conservation or natural hazards such as bushfires is imperative—because program budgets are usually finite and, therefore, constrained. However, effectively dividing resources among management activities to achieve the greatest benefit remains a ...

Track Bed Gaps Impact on Ballast Particle Surrounding Flow Field and Aerodynamic Forces for High-speed Railways before and after Ballast Splashing

open access: yesChengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
[Objective] When high-speed trains operate on ballasted tracks, the complex airflow field around ballast particles can lead to track ballast splashing. The formation mechanism of this phenomenon remains unclear.

Stress–Dilatancy For Crushed Latite Basalt

open access: yesStudia Geotechnica et Mechanica, 2018
In this article, the stress–dilatancy relationship for crushed latite basalt is analysed by using Frictional State Theory. The relationship is bilinear, and the parameters α and β determine these two straight lines.
