A New Approach to Shortest Route Finding in a Railway Network with Two Track Gauges and Gauge Changeovers

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
The Spanish railway network is a complex one, due to the existence of standard gauge (1,435 mm), Iberian gauge (1,668 mm), and dual gauge (with three rails) subnetworks, as well as connections between the two first subnetworks (at the so‐called gauge changeovers), usable by dual gauge trains.

A Novel Analytical Method to Calculate Wheel‐Rail Tangential Forces and Validation on a Scaled Roller‐Rig

open access: yesAdvances in Tribology, Volume 2018, Issue 1, 2018., 2018
The study of railway dynamic strongly depends on the estimation of the tangential forces acting between wheel and rail. Simulation of the dynamical behaviour of railway vehicles is often performed using multibody codes, and the calculation of the contact forces must be efficient and accurate, even if the contact problem is strongly nonlinear. Therefore,

Air Transport versus High‐Speed Rail: An Overview and Research Agenda

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Transportation, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
The development of high‐speed rail (HSR) services throughout the last decades has gradually blurred the concept of competition and cooperation with air transportation. There is a wide range of studies on this subject, with a particular focus on single lines or smaller regions.

Conocimiento general y gráfico de los elementos patrimoniales del ferrocarril Lorca-Baza. Actuaciones necesarias para su tutela

open access: yesE-RPH, 2022
La línea de ferrocarril que desde finales del siglo XIX unía las ciudades de Lorca y Baza, y por tanto, conectaba Andalucía con la Región de Murcia y el resto de la costa mediterránea española, conforma en la actualidad uno de los trazados históricos ...

Exploring New Boundaries to Mitigate Structural Vibrations of Bridges in Seismic Regions: A Smart Passive Strategy

open access: yesShock and Vibration, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
The combined use of two emerging technologies in the field of seismic engineering is investigated. The first is a semiactive control, to reduce smartly the effects induced by earthquakes on structures. The second is the Seismic Early Warning System which allows an estimate of the Peak Ground Accelerations of an incoming earthquake.
