Transducers Across Scales and Frequencies: A System‐Level Framework for Multiphysics Integration and Co‐Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

An analysis of railway track behaviour based on distributed optical fibre acoustic sensing

open access: yes, 2020
Trackside monitoring of railways provides useful data for understanding the condition and mechanical behaviour of railway track, prior research has shown that railway track performance varies significantly along its length, primarily owing to changing ...

The basic ingredients of the North Atlantic storm track. Part I: land-sea contrast and orography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Understanding and predicting changes in storm tracks over longer time scales is a challenging problem, particularly in the North Atlantic. This is due in part to the complex range of forcings (land–sea contrast, orography, sea surface temperatures, etc.)

Benchmarking Coaxial and Angular Optical Emission Spectroscopy With Recommendations for Reliable Compositional In Situ Monitoring During Laser Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Real‐time insight into local chemistry is critical for reliable part quality in additive manufacturing, especially laser powder bed fusion (PBF‑LB/M), where rapid thermal cycles and localized evaporation can undermine part performance. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) offers non‑intrusive, in situ plume monitoring, but detection geometry ...

Deflection Monitoring Method Using Fiber Bragg Gratings Applied to Tracking Particle Detectors

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2014
This paper proposes the use of fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs) for the deflection monitoring of a micromegas (MM) tracking particle detector to be installed at the European Organization for Nuclear Research during a major upgrade of the experiment ATLAS within 2018.

A ballast box to study the effect of sand fouling on ballast, track stiffness, track deformation, and predicting maintenance time

open access: yes
Zarembski, Allan M.Railroad track crossings through sandy areas, like deserts, face the unique challenge of sand infiltrating into the ballast, leading to ballast fouling.

Highly Nonlinear Solitary Waves for Rail Buckling Prevention [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
One of the major structural problems in the railroads made of continuous welded rails is buckling in hot weather and breakage or pulling apart in cold weather.

Tunable 3D‐Printed Static Mixers for Gradient Bioprinting With High Cell Viability

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The fabrication of native tissue‐like structures with gradual transitions in material properties, cell types, and growth factors remains a major challenge in biofabrication due to the lack of suitable methods. Mimicking the hierarchical organization of living tissues is essential for functional models, yet creating gradient, multimaterial ...

Continuous Evaluation of Track Modulus from a Moving Railcar Using ANN-Based Techniques

open access: yes, 2020
Track foundation stiffness (also referred as the track modulus) is one of the main parameters that affect the track performance, and thus, quantifying its magnitudes and variations along the track is widely accepted as a method for evaluating the track ...
