Various numbering schemes are used to track different versions and revisions of files, software packages, and documents. One major challenge in this regard is the lack of an all-purpose, adaptive, comprehensive and efficient standard. To resolve the challenge, this article presents Quadruple Adaptive Version Numbering Scheme. In the proposed scheme, the version identifier consists of four integ...

in this paper, the main factors in the analysis of the railway concrete sleepers areinvestigated and new recommendations are made in order to improve the accuracy of the currentpractices in analysis of the railway track system. first, a comprehensive literature survey isconducted, then, fem models for a railway track system are developed and used to discuss andevaluate the assumptions commonly ...

Sections of railway line associated with variations in track stiffness often have an increased maintenance requirement owing to the relatively rapid deterioration of track geometry. Variations in stiffness could arise from changes in ground conditions, transitions from free track onto a fixed structure and other localised features. Increased dynamic loads may be responsible for track degradatio...

This paper introduces in brief the traction system of a permanent magnet electrodynamic suspension (EDS) train. The synchronous traction mode based on long stators and track cable is described. A speed and position detection system is recommended. It is installed on board and is used as the feedback end. Restricted by the maglev train's structure, the permanent magnet electrodynamic suspension ...

In this paper a simple but efficient real-time detecting algorithm is proposed for tracking community structure of dynamic networks. Community structure is intuitively characterized as divisions of network nodes into subgroups, within which nodes are densely connected while between which they are sparsely connected. To evaluate the quality of community structure of a network, a metric called mo...

In this paper, we describe MITRE’s contribution to the logical form generation track of Senseval-3. We begin with a description of the context of MITRE’s work, followed by a description of the MITRE system and its results. We conclude with a commentary on the form and structure of this evaluation track.
