Wang, Jianyong (author), Yang, Jun (author), Gong, Jishuang (author), Zhao, Chunrong (author), Hooman, K. (author)Supercritical flow through a horizontal pipe leads to a non-uniform peripheral wall temperature distribution even when the wall heat flux is kept constant and uniform. This is attributed to lower heat transfer coefficient at the top section where the denser fluid tends to sink. Hence, to obtain a uniform wall temperature, a designed wall...journal article 2022

Guo, Y. (author), Shi, Can (author), Zhao, Chunfa (author), Markine, V.L. (author), Jing, Guoqing (author)Crumb rubber (CR) has been proposed to apply in the ballast or sub-ballast layer for ballast degradation mitigation and vibration (noise) reduction. The CR can change the ballast layer stiffness, which can affect the train-track-subgrade dynamic performance and cause travel comfort and safety issues. Towards this, this study aims at...journal article 2022
