Statistical Modelling of Wear and Damage Trajectories of Railway Wheelsets [PDF]
This paper discusses the use of Linear Mixed Models (LMM) and Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMM) to predict the wear and damage trajectories of railway wheelsets for a fleet of modern multiple unit trains.

A practical methodology to select fretting palliatives: Application to shot peening, hard chromium and WC-Co coatings [PDF]
Considered as a plague for numerous industrial assemblies, fretting, associated to slight oscillatory displacement, is encountered in all quasi-static contacts subjected to vibration.

Remote Assessment of Ataxia Severity in SCA3 Across Multiple Centers and Time Points
ABSTRACT Objective Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a genetically defined ataxia. The Scale for Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) is a clinician‐reported outcome that measures ataxia severity at a single time point. In its standard application, SARA fails to capture short‐term fluctuations, limiting its sensitivity in trials.

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Fatigue damage analysis of a Kaplan turbine model operating at off-design and transient conditions
The current renewable energy market forces hydraulic turbines to operate for longer periods of time at off-design and transient conditions. Their life expectancy is then decreased due to the wear provoked by flow instabilities and stochastic flow ...

Identification of contact regimes in mechanical components for the evaluation of fretting damage [PDF]
In this work the regimes of contact in misaligned crowned splined couplings have been analyzed. Experimental tests have been performed in order to identify if fretting damage on the components appears as fretting wear or fretting fatigue.
