technical and economical investigation on concrete pavements for railway passenger lines (technical note)

ballast as a part of the railway system plays an important role in the operation of the railways and also has a great impact on repair and maintenance activities. hence most of the repair and maintenance activities in traditional railway systems are due to the defections in the ballast layer and therefore most of the maintenance budget is spent on repairing these defects. these repair and maint...

Gearing up for Robotics

This naturalistic, qualitative research investigated the extent and depth to which the perceived embedded educational skills and concepts associated with gears in a robotics environment were realized. The research literature revealed a paucity and confusion of description and definition of gears, and a lack of articulation of the embedded skills associated with gears. Based on some seminal rese...

Diagnosis of Mechanical Faults in Electric Motors

The ability to monitor the condition of an electrical machine has been a concern of industry for many years. Knowing when a machine requires maintenance allows users to perform the required maintenance at their convenience, rather than during costly unscheduled shutdowns. This need for improved industrial monitoring techniques has produced a number of studies on the detection of mechanical faul...
