Detecting anomalous events at railway level crossings [PDF]
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part F: Journal of Rail and Rapid Transit, 2013 Collisions between pedestrians and vehicles continue to be a major problem throughout the world. Pedestrians trying to cross roads and railway tracks without any caution are often highly susceptible to collisions with vehicles and trains. Continuous financial, human and other losses have prompted transport related organizations to come up with various ...

Experimental tests of vehicle body accelerations at selected road and rail crossings
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Vehicles moving across the railway are exposed to the dynamic reaction of unevenness of surface on those level crossing. This significantly influences on the increase of the acceleration as well as forces values transferred to the body of the car.

Self‐Assembly of Organic–Inorganic Copolymers Toward Bio‐Inspired Cementitious Composites
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Organic–inorganic copolymerization of calcium silicate hydrate and thioctic acid produces a self‐organized nanocomposite inspired by the disordered collagen–mineral architecture of trabecular bone. The resulting material combines a compressive strength above 300 MPa with intrinsic physical reprocessibility, retaining over 80% of its strength and energy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We demonstrate that the inverse relationship between viscosity and conductivity in structured electrolytes can be circumvented by leveraging their hydrogen bonding networks for Grotthuss proton transport. Using a mixture of imidazole and levulinic acid, we show that the existence of extended hydrogen‐bonded chains that can rapidly reorient result in ...
