On geometry of tracks in dielectric nuclear track detectors [PDF]

open access: yesNuclear Instruments and Methods, 1971
Abstract Dielectric nuclear track detectors are now being utilized in a variety of research applications involving registration of heavily ionizing charged particles. Many situations call for the identification of particle charge Z , energy E , and possibly the mass M 1,2 ).

Feedback control of unstable cellular solidification fronts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We present a numerical and experimental study of feedback control of unstable cellular patterns in directional solidification (DS). The sample, a dilute binary alloy, solidifies in a 2D geometry under a control scheme which applies local heating close to

Quality Behaviour of Turnouts: Comparison, Problem Specification and Recommendation of Measures

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
For future requirements, asset management of turnouts needs to rely on data-based assessment tools. These tools must enable the quantification of quality behaviour of turnouts and identify causes of poor behaviour.

Endomorphisms, train track maps, and fully irreducible monodromies

open access: yes, 2017
Any endomorphism of a finitely generated free group naturally descends to an injective endomorphism of its stable quotient. In this paper, we prove a geometric incarnation of this phenomenon: namely, that every expanding irreducible train track map ...

Detection of high-speed railway subsidence and geometry irregularity using terrestrial laser scanning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Subsidence and geometry deformation monitoring are essential for safe transportation on a high-speed railway. Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is able to collect dense three-dimensional point data from the survey scene and achieve highly accurate ...

Performance of a Large-area GEM Detector Read Out with Wide Radial Zigzag Strips

open access: yes, 2015
A 1-meter-long trapezoidal Triple-GEM detector with wide readout strips was tested in hadron beams at the Fermilab Test Beam Facility in October 2013. The readout strips have a special zigzag geometry and run along the radial direction with an azimuthal ...

Detecting Embankment Instability Using Measurable Track Geometry Data

open access: yesInfrastructures, 2020
The British railway system is the oldest in the world. Most railway embankments are aged around 150 years old and the percentage of disruption reports that feature them is frequently higher than other types of railway infrastructure.

Finite Element Based Tracking of Deforming Surfaces [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We present an approach to robustly track the geometry of an object that deforms over time from a set of input point clouds captured from a single viewpoint.
