Abstract:
The article considers the feasibility of using transition and bridge beams waste for the production of composite wooden sleepers without the need to process them to standard sizes of railway sleepers. The results of numerical calculation of the bearing capacity of composite wooden sleepers laid in the track are obtained. These results satisfy the regulatory requirements for maximum permissible pressure in the ballast under the sleeper and on the main surface of the roadbed. The calculation of the minimum thickness of the ballast under the composite wooden sleeper is given, confirming the possi

Abstract:
The traditional ballasted track with wooden sleepers covers today most railway lines constructions, including the tracks of tram and metro or the industrial railway branching. In this work, we present an experimental methodology to validate a numerical model based on finite element method, the model was previously well defined using the ANSYS Parametric Design Language (APDL) and adapted to represent a classical ballasted track. The obtained result of the analysis is expressed as a frequency response of the track and it is compared to the experimental result from measurements made on the metro

The article considers obtaining numerical values of the coefficient of subgrade reaction of wooden and reinforced concrete sleepers with axial loads up to 30-35 tons per axle. It has been concluded that using the rolling stock with axial loads of up to 35 tons per axle is necessary in order to ensure sustainable development of the railway complex. The performance of the railway track thus should be investigated in order to predict its operation in such conditions. Generally, such studies are performed using numerical methods.

The interspersed railway track is an enhanced timber railway track, spot-replacing damaged wooden sleepers with new concrete sleepers to improve the bearing capacity of existing railway lines. Although this interspersed solution is characterised by low cost and short maintenance time, the interspersed tracks have worse stability than concrete tracks and can deteriorate quickly when exposed to extreme weather conditions such as heavy rains and floods. In many cases, heavy rains and floods are accompanied by strong winds. Ballast washaway can often be observed under flood conditions while the ma

The second, to achieve an exhaustive extraction can require several hours to days. With the development of sophisticated instrumentation with detection limi

Abstract:
The USAF’s R&amp;M 2000 policy emphasizes the integration of reliability and maintainability considerations into a system’s preliminary design phase. This emphasis leads to unique requirements for turbine engines, including those of “wooden rounds” such as a HARPOON type missiles. In particular, it requires the development of tools for assessing the impact of design iterations on the reliability of “wooden round” weapon systems. Such tools must account for design iterations impact on storage, captive carry and launch reliability. A Markov approach is described in this paper, which provides an

Abstract:
One of the most sensitive segments of the railway infrastructure are certainly bridges. All steel grid bridges have wooden sleeper attached to the bridge structure and cannot change the height when maintaining the upper structure rails. It has become a practice to reconstruct or replace damaged bridges in the past by taking care that the track construction is separated from the bridge constructions. One way is that steel grid structures are replaced with reinforced concrete structures in the form of a trough or if the spans are larger with steel structures in the form of a trough. The standard

Abstract:
Abstract This paper presents the design, modeling and bench testing of a smart railroad tie for energy harvesting from the motion of railway track. The system is intended for applications that require trackside power in remote locations, such as wayside electrical devices and safety equipment, signal lights, crossing gates, wireless communication, as well as rail health monitoring systems. The smart tie, which is designed to have similar dimensions to a conventional railroad tie, is installed in the same manner as a standard tie on the track. In particular, the mechanical energy harvesting mod

Abstract:
Theodore Roosevelt National Park (THRO) in western North Dakota was established for its historical connections with President Theodore Roosevelt. It contains not only historical and cultural resources, but abundant natural resources as well. Among these is one of the best geological and paleontological records of the Paleocene Epoch (66 to 56 million years ago) of any park in the National Park System. The Paleocene Epoch is of great scientific interest due to the great mass extinction that occurred at its opening (the Cretaceous–Paleogene extinction event), and the unusual climatic event that

Abstract:
The Southeast Coast Network (SECN) stream habitat monitoring protocol collects data to give park resource managers insight into the status of, and trends in, stream and near-channel habitat conditions. Streams chosen for assessment were specifically targeted for management interest or to provide a context for similar-sized stream(s) within the park. This report documents the 2023 resurvey of wadeable stream habitats in Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park (KEMO), focusing on two third-order streams—Noses Creek (KEMO001) and John Ward Creek (KEMO002).
