Switch Rail Reduction Value Deviation’s Impact on Wheel–Rail Dynamic Interaction and Its Efficient Identification Method: A Numerical and Experimental Study

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Railway turnout is a critical railway infrastructure that guides trains in switching tracks. Over time, uneven rail wear can lead to switch rail reduction value (SRRV) deviation, a typical structural defect that compromises turnout functionality and ...

Study on Condition Assessment of Highway Bridge, Normal-Speed and High-Speed Railway Bridge

open access: yes, 2011
There are lots of theories and methods about condition assessment for highway bridge, and gradual perfection for normal-speed railway bridge, but only little for high-speed railway bridge, especially large-span and special structures.

High‐Speed Rail and Spatial Equity: Unpacking the Sustainability Paradox of Land Use and Fiscal Pressure in County‐Level Cities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infrastructure‐led development in rapidly urbanizing economies often generates accessibility gains that fail to translate into balanced urban outcomes, particularly when local fiscal institutions redirect those gains toward revenue‐generating land uses. Filling this gap, especially in fiscally constrained county‐level cities where land finance

Optimizing Eco‐Industrial Park Site Selection for Circular Supply Chains: A Novel Hybrid Decision‐Making Approach

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eco‐Industrial Parks (EIPs) are critical infrastructure for transitioning to sustainable production and consumption patterns, enabling resource efficiency through industrial symbiosis. However, the success of these circular ecosystems depends heavily on strategic location planning that balances conflicting economic, environmental, and social ...

Enhancing LoRA Model Serving Capacity via Adaptive Operator Scheduling for Multi-Tenancy on GPU

open access: yesIEEE Access
Low-Rank Adaptation (LoRA) has garnered increasing attention for effectively fine-tuning large language models (LLMs) with limited resources. Nonetheless, conventional approaches that cater to multiple LoRA models independently lead to redundant ...

City Diplomacy as a Green Strategy? International Sister City Partnerships and Urban Decarbonization

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The establishment of international sister city partnerships (ISCPs) has expanded since the postwar era, developing from cultural exchanges into strategic diplomatic channels for sustainable development. While their socioeconomic benefits are well‐documented, their potential as instruments for global environmental governance and urban ...

Mechanical properties analysis of the interspersed replacement of timber sleepers with bamboo-based composite sleepers on open bridge deck

open access: yesScientific Reports
Due to the discrete deterioration characteristics of timber sleepers on open bridge deck, continuous replacement is difficult. New bamboo-based composite sleepers (BCSs) offer excellent performance at a low price, making them an ideal alternative to ...

High-speed railway lines

open access: yes, 2014
Japan was the first country that built railway lines for high speed travel. Because of the mountainous terrain, the existing network consisted of 1,067 mm (3 ft 6 in) narrow gauge lines, which took indirect routes and could not be adapted to higher speeds. Consequently, Japan had a greater need for new high speed lines than countries where the existing
