Probabilistic simulation for the certification of railway vehicles [PDF]
, 2015 The present dynamic certification process that is based on experiments has been essentially built on the basis of experience. The introduction of simulation techniques into this process would be of great interest.

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The rapid development of new railway networks and the aging of existing infrastructure in seismic‐prone regions continue to motivate the need for efficient methods to simulate the dynamic behavior of coupled train track structure systems. While detailed train–structure interaction (TSI) models can capture complex mechanisms, they are often too

Measurement methods and analysis tools for rail irregularities. A case study for urban tram track [PDF]
, 2015 Rail irregularities, in particular for urban railway infrastructures, are one of the main causes for the generation of noise and vibrations. In addition, repetitive loading may also lead to decay of the structural elements of the rolling stock.

Integrating driving and traffic simulators for the study of railway level crossing safety interventions: a methodology [PDF]
, 2012 Safety at Railway Level Crossings (RLXs) is an important issue within the Australian transport system. Crashes at RLXs involving road vehicles in Australia are estimated to cost $10 million each year.

Diurnal Air–Surface Temperature Dynamics in Hong Kong: An Analysis Across Land Use and Climate Zones
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Daytime and nighttime air temperature (Ta) from automatic weather stations and land surface temperature (Ts) derived from ASTER and Landsat 8–9 are used to examine the relationship between Ta and Ts. The spatial and statistical characteristics of Ta − Ts dynamics are further analysed across land use (LU) and local climate zones (LCZ).

Interaction Between Vortex‐Induced Vibrations and Base Vibrations in Piezoelectric Harvesters
International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In the present era, powering sensors using green energy is a significant challenge. One promising solution for the power supply of small sensors relies on piezoelectric energy harvesters excited by vortex‐induced vibrations (VIVs) generated by wind.

Networks, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The analysis of certain properties of the underlying graph of a public transport network generates insights about the network's structure. Hereby, the choice of the graph representation depends on a trade‐off between complexity reduction and information preservation to adequately model a public transport network.

Is the cubic parabola really the best railway transition curve?
Open Engineering, 2021 In the current study, the authors tested two railway transition curves in terms of their usefulness for railway practice. The first curve was a cubic parabola – the curve most popular in railway engineering.
