Surface defect characterisation using non-contact ultrasound [PDF]
Electromagnetic acoustic transducers (EMATs) have been used as a non-contact ultrasound approach for detecting and characterising surface defects in aluminium bars and billet.

The measurement of the longitudinal rail profile is relevant to the condition monitoring of the rail infrastructure. The running surface is recognizable as a shiny metallic area on top of the rail head. The detection of the running surface is crucial for

Paint baking of resistance spot welded joints of 2.0 GPa warm‐stamped medium‐Mn steel activates low‐temperature tempering, forming fine cementite in the fusion zone and enhancing toughness. Crack propagation resistance increases, shifting the failure mode from partial interfacial to complete pullout, with peak load and energy absorption rising ...

The high‐strain‐rate behavior of resistance spot‐welded DP800–DP1000 joints is investigated. Results show that microstructural gradients across BM–HAZ–FZ govern hardness, strain rate sensitivity, and failure modes. While strength increases with strain rate, energy absorption is controlled by ductility, with DP800–DP800 joints showing superior ...

Disc machine testing to assess the life of surface-damaged railway track
Wheel-rail contacts operate in an arduous and contaminated environment. Railway track running surfaces can become damaged either prior to or during operation.

Strain‐induced NbC precipitation governs hot‐deformation resistance in CrNiMnMoB ultrahigh‐strength steel by suppressing dynamic recrystallization, increasing activation energy, and refining martensitic substructures. The precipitation response is controlled by temperature, supersaturation, and strain rate, with slow deformation promoting extensive NbC

Multi‐level fatigue reliability assessment of reinforced concrete railway bridges
Abstract This paper presents a multi‐level reliability framework for assessing the fatigue life of reinforced concrete (RC) railway trough bridges subjected to cyclic loading. The framework incorporates increasing levels of analytical complexity and real‐world data in four steps. First, an analytical model applies S–N curves and the Palmgren–Miner rule
