The development of rail-head acoustic roughness

open access: yes, 2009
A model of the development of rail-head acoustic roughness on tangent track has been formulated. The model consists of a two-dimensional time domain wheel-rail interaction force calculation, with the normal force used as the input to a two-dimensional ...

Rail Reform Strategies: The Australian Experience [PDF]

open access: yes
Widely different approaches to rail reform are evident across countries and within Australia. Reforms have involved structural separation (both vertical and horizontal) and varying degrees of private sector involvement.

Buddy Wire–Augmented Intravascular Lithotripsy in Refractory Calcified Coronary Lesions: A Five‐Case Series

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Heavily calcified coronary lesions remain a major challenge in percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), often limiting the effectiveness of intravascular lithotripsy (IVL). We report a five‐case series in which IVL failed to achieve adequate lesion modification but was successfully augmented by the addition of one or more buddy wires.

Mechanisms and Management of Acquired Aseptic Intracardiac Communications After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation: Single‐Center Case Series Insights

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Acquired aseptic intracardiac communications (AICCs) are rare but clinically relevant structural complications following transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI), typically resulting from mechanical injury to the aortic annulus, interventricular septum, or adjacent structures.

Digital documentation of railway tunnel inspection in Austria

open access: yesCivil Engineering Design, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 3-8, March 2025.
Abstract Infrastructure, especially railway tunnels, require continuous inspection to ensure their safety. Furthermore, the detection of damages at an early stage can improve their service life. These tasks represent a major challenge for those involved and the tunnel down time is a disruption in operation.

Evaluation of ride quality and rail surface roughness from vibration analysis of in-service passenger rail cars

open access: yes, 2021
Regulatory and special visual inspection of railway tracks is important to ensure the safe and secure operation of trains. Due to increased traffic volumes, operational speeds and axle loads, new technologies are emerging to collect and monitor data more

Single Atoms Induced Electron Transfer and Spin Polarization for High‐Performance Asymmetric Supercapacitors

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Contributed by the introduction of Cu SAs, extra electron transfer, and spin polarization to Cooh can be induced for optimizing electronic structure, contributing to fast electron conduction, enhanced capacitive reactions and accelerated ion diffusion. ABSTRACT Features of low cost and high theoretical capacity render transition metal oxides (TMOs) as ...

An Ultra‐Low‐Power Biopotential Acquisition Analog Front‐End Chip for Wearable Devices

open access: yesInternational Journal of Circuit Theory and Applications, EarlyView.
A 0.8‐V, 1.2‐μW biopotential AFE combines a chopper‐stabilized CCIA with dual‐time‐scale EDO management. The slow DSL preserves > 1 GΩ input impedance, whereas an event‐triggered fast‐recovery path shortens return to the linear range after abrupt electrode‐offset disturbances. ABSTRACT A 0.8‐V, 1.2‐μW biopotential analog front‐end (AFE) IC is presented

Experimental study on burning rate and flame geometry in construction tunnel fires under high geothermal conditions

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract As tunnel construction advances in lengths and depths, the construction of tunnels in high geothermal environments has become increasingly common, raising significant fire risks. In this study, a 1:20 scale model tunnel test platform was constructed to investigate the effects of a high geothermal environment on fire behavior in tunnels during ...
