A predictive model of energy savings from top of rail friction control [PDF]
In this paper the authors present a predictive model of train energy requirements due to the application of a top of rail friction modifier (TOR-FM) versus dry wheel / rail conditions. Using the VAMPIRE® Pro simulation package, train energy requirements

Resilience‐as‐doing: A relational model for living practice
Abstract Dominant frameworks treat resilience as a capacity to withstand disturbance and recover, something systems, communities or individuals either have or lack. This paper proposes a different understanding, grounded in relational onto‐epistemology and first‐person, practice‐based, autoethnographic inquiry situated within a household garden.
