(author), Yang, Xiushan (author), Morita, Kazuki (author), Ma, Wenhui (author)Nanometer-sized hematite was prepared via a two-step process. In the first step, FeSO<sub>4</sub>·7H<sub>2</sub>O was oxidized to Fe<sub>2</sub>(SO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> by oxygen in an acidic solution. In the second step, the Fe<sub>2</sub>(SO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub> was reduced to nanosize hematite with sulfur vapor at 550 °C. The...journal article 2022

Zhong, Junping (author), Liu, Zhigang (author), Wang, H. (author), Liu, Wenqiang (author), Yang, Cheng (author), Han, Zhiwei (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author)Brace sleeve (BS) fasteners, i.e., nut and bolt, are small components but play essential roles in fixing BS and cantilever in railway catenary system. They are commonly inspected by onboard cameras using computer vision to ensure the safety of railway operation. However, most BS fasteners cannot be directly localized because they are too...journal article 2021

Zhong, J. (author), Liu, Zhigang (author), Wang, H. (author), Liu, W. (author), Yang, Cheng (author), Nunez, Alfredo (author)Brace Sleeve (BS) plays an essential role in connecting and fixing cantilevers of railway catenary systems. It needs to be monitored to ensure the safety of railway operations. In the literature, image processing techniques that can localize BSs from inspection images are proposed. However, the boxes produced by existing methods can contain...conference paper 2020
