Trespassing on the Railroad

Greater than half of all the fatal injuries on United States railroads are sustained by trespassers. The paper provides a statistical analysis of the demographics of trespassers, the activities they were engaged in, and the causes of injury. It also analyzes trends over time. The paper finds that the risks of injury and death are particularly acute for males in their 20s and 30s. The annual cas...

Beyond convention

A lthough copper-oxide superconductors share with conventional superconductors the remarkable property of offering no resistance to the flow of electricity, their characteristic critical temperatures (Tc) below which this happens can be as high as 135 K. In fact, these materials belong to the emerging class of so-called strongly correlated systems — a class of materials whose list is rapidly gr...

Railroad Crossing Heterogeneous Model

Systems are getting more and more complex and usually involve many stakeholders. Stakeholders are concerned by different aspects of the system, potentially supported by multiple Domain Specific Modeling Languages (DSMLs). The DSMLs are usually different not only in their syntax but also in their behavioral semantics. In order to provide simulation and/or verification of the overall system, it i...
