Influence of boron content on the fracture toughness and fatigue crack propagation kinetics of bainitic steels [PDF]
, 2016 The relatively good combination of high strength and ductility makes bainitic steels a candidate to replace many other steels in industrial applications. However, in service, ductility and strength are not up to standard requirements.

Measurement methods and analysis tools for rail irregularities. A case study for urban tram track [PDF]
, 2015 Rail irregularities, in particular for urban railway infrastructures, are one of the main causes for the generation of noise and vibrations. In addition, repetitive loading may also lead to decay of the structural elements of the rolling stock.
