Changing a Winning Team—Replacement of Brominated Flame Retardant and Antimony Trioxide in Acrylonitrile–Butadiene–Styrene

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
This comprehensive study investigates reducing the amount of brominated flame retardant (Br) and/or antimony trioxide (ATO) in acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene. Therefore, condensed‐phase flame‐retardant mechanisms are introduced into the flame‐inhibition system.

Refining the modelling of vehicle-track interaction

open access: yes, 2011
A refined model of a railway vehicle running on a straight track is developed. In this model the wheelsets and the rails are modelled as flexible bodies and a detailed model of the wheel-rail contact is used.

Rail-Wheel Friction Management in Rail System Vehicles

open access: yes, 2021
In rail systems, which is one of the reliable transportation ways of our age, the first interaction between vehicle and infrastructure starts with rail and wheel contact. In cases where the friction that will arise from the rail-wheel contact is high, abrasions and noise will occur on the wheel and the rail outside the allowable limits.

Circular Economy Pathways for Airport Climate Change Mitigation

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Airport operators face growing climate‐change pressures; the circular economy offers pathways to reduce impacts and recover resources. We examine how airport operators apply the circular economy in practice. We use an exploratory qualitative multicase design based on practitioner‐generated documents (e.g., press releases and sustainability ...

An investigation of sleeper voids using a flexible track model integrated with railway multi-body dynamics

open access: yes, 2009
This article describes a flexible track system model (FTSM) that represents the track structure for a typical ballasted track, taking into account the flexibility of the rails, the sleeper mass and the resilience of the pad/fastening elements, as well as

Closure Effect of I + II Mixed-mode Crack for EA4T Axle Steel

open access: yesChinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering
The crack-closure effect is a crucial factor that affects the crack growth rate and should be considered in simulation analysis and testing. A mixed-mode I + II loading fatigue crack growth test was performed using EA4T axle steel specimens.

A Taxonomy of Predictive Maintenance as a Basis for Supra‐Regional Sustainability Monitoring—Literature Review

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The concept of predictive maintenance in advanced manufacturing systems is crucial from the point of view of resource efficiency in the era of high competitiveness forced by energy transformation in the digital economy. Against the backdrop of sustainability and the opportunities a data cooperative offers, the combination of predictive ...

Wheel/rail contact model for rail vehicle dynamics

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Mécanique, 2011
An advanced method using progressive concept of correspondence is applied to create new wheel/rail model based on the virtual penetration theory. The geometry and mechanism of contact are solved simultaneously because of the independency in a defined correspondence.
