Alternative derivation of the Feigel effect and call for its experimental verification

, 2011
A recent theory by Feigel [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 92}, 020404 (2004)] predicts the finite transfer of momentum from the quantum vacuum to a fluid placed in strong perpendicular electric and magnetic fields.

Slab tracks in the context of railway track reconstruction

, 2004
U radu se ukazuje na specifičnost projekta rekonstrukcije u odnosu na projekat nove pruge. Definiše se osnovna hijerarhijska šema za donošenje odluke o rekonstrukciji i obavezne faze izrade projektne dokumentacije. Posebno se obrazlažu specifični zahtevi rekonstrukcije gornjeg stroja.

Multi-Objective Vibration Control of a Vehicle-Track-Bridge Coupled System Using Tuned Inerter Dampers Based on the FE-SEA Hybrid Method

Applied Sciences
To address the adverse effects of Tuned Inertia Dampers (TIDs) on track slab vibrations while controlling high-frequency rail vibrations, a hybrid Finite Element-Statistical Energy Analysis (FE-SEA) method is developed for modeling the vehicle-track ...

Fluidisation and plastic activity in a model soft-glassy material flowing in micro-channels with rough walls

, 2016
By means of mesoscopic numerical simulations of a model soft-glassy material, we investigate the role of boundary roughness on the flow behaviour of the material, probing the bulk/wall and global/local rheologies.

Shape of the ocean surface and implications for the Earth's interior: GEOS-3 results [PDF]

A new set of 1 deg x 1 deg mean free air anomalies was used to construct a gravimetric geoid by Stokes' formula for the Indian Ocean. Utilizing such 1 deg x 1 deg geoid comparisons were made with GEOS-3 radar altimeter estimates of geoid height.

Geodetic, teleseismic, and strong motion constraints on slip from recent southern Peru subduction zone earthquakes [PDF]

, 2007
We use seismic and geodetic data both jointly and separately to constrain coseismic slip from the 12 November 1996 M_w 7.7 and 23 June 2001 M_w 8.5 southern Peru subduction zone earthquakes, as well as two large aftershocks following the 2001 earthquake ...

Great Lakes all-weather ice information system [PDF]

A system is described which utilizes an X-band Side-Looking-Airborne-Radar (SLAR) for determining type, location, and aerial distribution of the ice cover in the Great Lakes and an airborne, S-band, short pulse radar for obtaining ice thickness. The SLAR

Cross-sectional temperature analysis method of slab track based on detailed evaluation of solar radiation and long-wave radiation

Nihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu
In some slab tracks in cold regions, freeze-thaw cycle causes frost damage to the slab track filling layer. To evaluate this phenomenon, we proposed a weakly coupled analysis method of heat balance calculation on the slab track surface and heat ...

CONCRETE PROPERTIES IMPROVEMENT OF SLAB TRACKS USING CHEMICAL ADDITIVES

Science and Transport Progress, 2015
Purpose. On the Railways of Ukraine a very large number of slab tracks are operated with cracks. Many scientific works of previous years are dedicated to improving the design of slab tracks. The main causes of defects are: poor exploitation of the track; insufficient physic-mechanical characteristics of concrete; poor quality of initial materials.
