Tutorial on the fragmentation of the railway ballast particles and calibration methods in discrete element modelling

open access: yesActa Technica Jaurinensis, 2021
This paper presents a short literature review related to the fragmentation of the railway crushed ballast particles. With the help of the processed articles with the main topic of discrete element modelling (DEM) we aim to provide some insight into the ...

Determining the Deformation Characteristics of Railway Ballast by Mathematical Modeling of Elastic Wave Propagation

open access: yesApplied Mechanics, 2023
The article solves the problem of theoretically determining the deformable characteristics of railway ballast, considering its condition through mathematical modeling. Different tasks require mathematical models with different levels of detail of certain

A dynamic conductance model of fluorescent lamp for electronic ballast design simulation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A Spice-compatible dynamic conductance model of a fluorescent lamp for use in electronic ballast simulation is presented. The time-dependent conductance of the fluorescent lamp is derived from a plasma ionization balance equation that uses simplified ...

Thermal Management of Led Luminaires Based on Computational Fluid Dynamic

open access: yesEletrônica de Potência, 2015
Large LED (light-emitting diodes) clusters are currently designed to replace the lamps commonly used in parks, roadways, tunnels and street lighting. However, the success of these designs is heavily dependent on the performance of the thermal management.

Measuring the area and number of ballast particle contacts at sleeper/ballast and ballast/subgrade interfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The number of railway ballast particles in contact with a sleeper may be relatively small. The discrete and non-uniform nature of these contacts may cause breakage and wear.

Simple particle shapes for DEM simulations of railway ballast: influence of shape descriptors on packing behaviour

open access: yesGranular Matter, 2020
In any DEM simulation, the chosen particle shape will greatly influence the simulated material behaviour. For a specific material, e.g. railway ballast, it remains an open question how to model the particle shape, such that DEM simulations are ...

Calibration for discrete element modelling of railway ballast: A review

open access: yes, 2020
The discrete element method (DEM) has been confirmed as an effective numerical method for modelling railway ballast, and successfully used to analyse a wide range of ballast-related applications (e.g. geomaterials).

Integrated Zeta - Flyback Converter To Supply Hid Lamps

open access: yesEletrônica de Potência, 2008
This paper proposes a Metal Halide (MH) lamp electronic ballast based on the integration of Zeta and Flyback converters working in discontinuous conduction mode, in order to provide the ballast power factor correction and to stabilize the lamp current ...
