The aim of this paper is to evaluate the train/track induced loads on substructure by modelling wheel, at each instant, as a moving sinusoidal pulse applied in very short period time. This assumption has advantage being more realistic it reduces impact time load definition. To that end, mass, stiffness, and dumping matrices an elementary section track will be determined. As result, equations mo...

in this paper, the mechanical behavior of three-phase inhomogeneous materials is modeled using the meso-scale model with lattice beams for static and dynamic analyses. the timoshenko beam theory is applied instead of the classical euler-bernoulli beam theory and the mechanical properties of lattice beam connection are derived based on the continuum medium using the non-local continuum theory. t...

In the recent past, tracking applications increasingly develop towards distributed sensor scenarios. In many cases, such schemes must cope with low observable targets in cluttered environments. Furthermore, such a setup suffers from communication delays and timely delayed sensor data. However, Track-before-Detect methodologies are not suitable for processing time delayed data yet. In this paper...

this paper studies the dynamic behavior of price elasticity and its effects on the overall profit. although price elasticity has a significant effect on sales, its dynamics have not been examined so far in pricing models. in this paper, a simple pricing model is suggested in which, price elasticity is considered dynamic. the suggested pricing model is concerned with a monopolist that its object...

the understanding of the dynamic behavior of distillation columns has received considerable attention because distillation is one of the most widely used unit operations in chemical process industries. this paper reports a dynamic simulation study of the possible distillation columns sequences of dew pointing unit in the second phase of south pars gas refinery. in this unit, three columns are u...
