THE HIGH-SPEED RAIL DEVELOPMENT IN THE NORTHEAST MEGAREGION OF THE UNITED STATES: A CONCEPTUAL ANALYSIS [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper examines the high-speed rail (HSR) development issues in the Northeast Megaregion of the United States (U.S.). Due to chronic underinvestment and a myriad of other factors, the only operational HSR in the U.S., i.e., Amtrak’s Acela Express, is

Climatic Drivers of the Area Burned by Winter Wildfires in Northern Italy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study investigates winter wildfires occurring between November and April in northern Italy over the period 2008–2022. By integrating high‐resolution burned‐area data with gridded climatic indices derived from 150 weather stations, it identifies spatial and temporal wildfire patterns, highlights the most fire‐prone mountain areas through pixel ...

Control Strategy of Subway Bidirectional Converter for Suppressing Grid Background Harmonics

open access: yesChengshi guidao jiaotong yanjiu
[Objective] The nonlinear power equipment in subway traction power supply systems causes distortions in grid voltage during operation, leading to large grid background harmonics, which will affect the grid-connected current quality of subway ...

Viability analysis and the importance of fine‐scale variables influencing roadkills of a toad population

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
Fine‐scale population variables better explain roadkill patterns in natterjack toads (Epidalea calamita) than habitat proxies, with mortality driven mainly by local abundance, reduced by roadside embankments, and decreasing as the season advanced. Despite high roadkills, population viability analyses indicate no immediate extinction risk under current ...

Assessing and Explaining Human–Nature Coordination at the County Scale in China: Combining an Interpretable Spatiotemporal Graph Neural Network and Difference‐In‐Differences

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coordinating high‐intensity human activities with fragile ecosystems remains a major challenge for global sustainability. Accurate assessment of human–nature coordination (HNC) is critical, yet county‐level variations, underlying drivers, and responses to ecological zoning have seldom been examined simultaneously within a unified framework. We

Uncertainty, Sensitivity, and Efficiency Analysis of a Hybrid Piezoelectric–Electromagnetic Energy Harvester

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digitalization and emerging technologies are increasing the demand for wireless sensing and the Internet of Things (IoT), which provide opportunities for autonomous sources of electricity in the form of energy harvesting systems. This paper focuses on the challenges in hybrid piezoelectric‐electromagnetic kinetic energy harvesting systems that

Analysis of flow and aerodynamic noise behaviour of a simplified high-speed train bogie inside the bogie cavity

open access: yes, 2014
Aerodynamic noise becomes significant for high-speed trains but its prediction in an industrial context is difficult. The flow and aerodynamic noise behaviour of a simplified high-speed train bogie at scale 1:10 are studied here through numerical ...

Economic Development Impacts of High Speed Rail [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper reviews the state of high-speed rail (HSR) planning in the United States c. 2010. The plans generally call for a set of barely inter-connected hub-and-spoke networks. The evidence from US transit systems shows that lines have two major impacts.

Detecting Loosening of Bolt‐Flanged Pipe Using Smoothed Pseudo Wigner–Ville Distribution: Digital Twin‐Based Approach Using Convolution Neural Networks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this paper, an integrated digital twin‐based fault‐diagnosis framework is proposed to detect bolt loosening in flanged pipe connections. The approach combines finite element‐based numerical modeling, experimental modal analysis, and advanced signal processing‐assisted deep learning to achieve reliable loosening detection under operational ...
