Community-informed and codesigned research to understand the impacts of railways on wildlife. [PDF]
Conserv BiolAbstract Trains cause mortalities of several animal species, but the ecological impacts of railways are understudied. Most research on wildlife–train collisions has focused on large mammals, but understanding railway‐specific risks for underrepresented taxa, especially vulnerable species, is important for developing effective mitigation strategies ...

Distribution of Currents in 2 × 25 kV Electric Railway Systems under Normal Conditions
International Transactions on Electrical Energy Systems, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 This article shows a detailed analysis of the distribution of currents in 2 × 25 kV electric railway systems under normal conditions. The network equations are clearly formulated in a way that enables the presentation of a novel simplified analytical solution as well as the traditional numerical solution of the equation set.

Bringing War Back in: Victory and State Formation in Latin America
American Journal of Political Science, Volume 65, Issue 2, Page 405-421, April 2021., 2021 Abstract Scholars have often dismissed the effect of war on state formation in regions like Latin America, where mobilization for war is deemed insufficiently intense and international conflict fails to out‐select weaker states. Against this conventional wisdom, I contend that wars can affect state‐building trajectories in a postwar period through the ...

Pareto Assumption for Constrained PSO‐Based Locomotive Resistance Minimization
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020 The mechanical resistance of a locomotive is crucial for power consumption. It is desirable to maintain this resistance at a minimum value for energy efficiency under optimal operation conditions. The optimal conditions can be found by particle swarm optimization with constraints.

Understanding and minimizing environmental impacts of the Belt and Road Initiative
Conservation Biology, Volume 33, Issue 4, Page 883-894, August 2019., 2019 Abstract China's Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) sets to create connections and build infrastructure across Eurasia, Asia, and parts of the African continent in its initial phase and is the largest infrastructure project of all time. Any infrastructure project on this scale will necessarily pass through ecofragile regions and key biodiversity areas ...
