Prediction of Rail Wear Under Different Railway Track Geometries Using Artificial Neural Networks

open access: yesInfrastructures
The geometry of the railway track affects rail wear significantly. If the rail wear can be predicted and considered during the alignment design phase, the problems it causes can be mitigated at the source by optimizing the values and combinations of ...

Modelling and simulation of dynamic wheel-rail interaction using a roller rig

open access: yes, 2012
The interaction between the wheel and rail greatly influences the dynamic response of railway vehicles on the track. A roller rig facility can be used to study and monitor real time parameters that influence wheel-rail interaction such as wear, adhesion,

A new approach for modelling mild and severe wear in wheel-rail contacts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
This paper presents a new approach for modelling the wear in wheel-rail contacts for a wide range of test and contact conditions (material pairing, load, creep, lubrication etc.) in the mild and severe wear regimes with one set of model coefficients. The

Wheel-rail wear characteristics of a modern tram passing curves with small radius

open access: yesArchives of Transport
The wheel-rail wear was predicted for modern trams with independently rotating wheelset running on a groove-shaped rail. The tram vehicle-track coupled dynamics model, considering the wheel-rail multi-point contact, was developed using software UM to ...

Fully 3D‐Printed Wave‐Wound Electromagnetic Motors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This work presents the first fully 3D‐printed wave‐wound electromagnetic motors, which are created using conductive nanoparticle inks, carbon‐filled nylon polymers, and surface mount components. These motors can achieve a stall torque of 7.62N·mmA−1$7.62 \nobreakspace N{\cdot }mm A^{-1}$ and efficiency of 28.2 %, which approaches the performance of ...

Waveguide Geometry–Driven Trade‐Offs in Resonant Cavity Sensor Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Waveguide geometry governs the interplay between sensitivity, intrinsic Q‐factor, and wavelength noise in silicon nitride resonant sensors. Contrary to intuition, higher sensitivity does not ensure superior performance. Low‐noise, high‐Q ridge resonators achieve the lowest detection limits, revealing that detection is ultimately constrained by noise ...

Prediction of metal pm emission in rail tracks for condition monitoring application

open access: yes, 2011
Exposure to particulate material (PM) is a major health concern in megacities across the world which use trains as a primary public transport. PM emissions caused by railway traffic have hardly been investigated in the past, due to their obviously minor ...
