Modelling degradation processes of switches & crossings for maintenance & renewal planning on the Swiss railway network

Approximately 25 percent of the budget for the maintenance and renewal of railway tracks –in Switzerland more than a billion Swiss Francs– is used for the switches (points) and crossings (S&C). While in the mean time the budget expenditure for the maintena ...

Alignment of the LHCb tracking stations and selection of X(3872) and Z(4430)± in pp collisions at 14 TeV

The LHCb experiment is one of the four large experiments located at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, close to Geneva, Switzerland. The LHCb detector is a single-arm forward spectrometer which is dedicated to precision measurements of CP violation, ...

Adaptive frequency tracking and application to biomedical signals

Yann Prudat

The main information of a signal resides in its frequency, its amplitude (or its power) and in their temporal evolution. Thus, a great number of methods for instantaneous frequency estimation have been proposed in the literature. Most of these algorithms u ...

Defining Degradation Processes of Switches Crossings for Maintenance Renewal Planning

Approximately 25 percent of the budget for the maintenance and renewal of railway tracks is used for the switches (points) and crossings (S&C). While in the mean time the budget expenditure for the maintenance and renewal of plain track is optimized with e ...

Anomalous solitons

Matthias Schmid

Solitons are stable, non-singular solutions to the classical equations of motion of non-linear field theory. Their energy is localized and finite and their shape remains unaltered during propagation. For this reason they represent particle-like states in f ...

Accurate fatigue stress determination in concrete railway bridges considering rail track - structure interaction

Eugen Brühwiler, Andrin Herwig

So-called “non-load bearing” parts of (railway) bridges increase the stiffness and decrease the stresses in short span bridge structures. The rail track, consisting of ballast, sleepers and rails, has a non-linear behaviour and its rigidity depends on the ...
