Tire tracks and integrable curve evolution

open access: yes, 2018
We study a simple model of bicycle motion: a segment of fixed length in multi-dimensional Euclidean space, moving so that the velocity of the rear end is always aligned with the segment.

On the Lightweight Potential of Laser Additive Manufactured NiTi Triply Periodic Minimal Sheet Lattices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores the lightweight potential of laser additive‐manufactured NiTi triply periodic minimal surface sheet lattices. It systematically investigates the effects of relative density and unit cell size on surface quality, deformation recovery, compression behavior, and energy absorption.

Analysis of Results of Monitoring and Prediction of Quality Development of Ballasted and Ballastless Track Superstructure and its Transition Areas

open access: yesCommunications, 2016
Securing durability of parameter quality of track alignment design and track geometry is a goal of each railway infrastructure manager. To accomplish this goal, various methods and procedures are applied, but they are all based on regular diagnostics ...

Optimal geometry for oval sprint tracks

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 1990
Track aspect ratio is defined as the percentage of lap length devoted to turns on an oval running track. Equations based on experiments are developed to model a composite runner with a specified top speed, during an acceleration phase in the straightaways and a centripetal phase in the turns.

Prediction of Surface Topography Parameters in Direct Laser Interference Patterning of Stainless Steel Using Infrared Monitoring and Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents an infrared monitoring approach for direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN). Thermal emission data captured during structuring are used to predict surface topography parameters.

Track Geometry for Light Rail Systems

open access: yesTransportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2010
Light rail systems are characterized by running over the streets, with semiexclusive (or reserved) right-of-way. This factor leads to the necessity of adapting the track geometry to that existing in the streets. This adaptation sometimes leads to great challenges: strong vertical grades, horizontal circular curves with small radius without ...

Impact of wheel shape on the vertical damage of cast crossing panels in turnouts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Impact forces generated in the load transfer area of railway crossing panels lead to a range of degradation modes from wear and fatigue of the contacting materials, fatigue of supporting components to ballast/subgrade deterioration.

A Thermodynamic 3D Model for the Simulation of Diffusion‐Controlled Alloying Processes in Heterogeneous Material Structures

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A numerical model resulting from irreversible thermodynamics for describing transport processes is introduced, focusing on thermodynamic activity gradients as the actual driving force for diffusion. Implemented in CUDA C++ and using CalPhaD methods for determining the necessary activity data, the model accurately simulates interdiffusion in aluminum ...

Characterization of Nitinol Produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion for Mechanical Metamaterial Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Stabilization of L‐PBF Ni50.7Ti49.3 under low‐cycle loading was investigated. Recoverable strain after cycling was dependent on the amount of applied load. Recovery ratio was 53.4% and 35.1% at intermediate and high load, respectively. The maximum total strain reached 10.3% at a high load of 1200 MPa.

Rail Geometry Analysis (From the Point of View of Wearing in the Operation)

open access: yesCommunications, 2003
Rail geometry analysis is, from the point of view of wearing in the operation, the question of present railway vehicles operation practice. The sequels of negative influence are reflected on the environment state.
