EVALUATION OF STRAIN-STRESS STATE OF THE RAILS IN THE PRODUCTION by V. V. Muravev, K. A. Tapkov

“…Estimation of residual stresses values allows to get information about technical condition of the rail and also allow to avoid abnormal situations So, the aim of the research is creating the model of stress-strain state of the rail, which was hardened in its top and bottom, and to compare modeling results with experimental measurements of stresses and discrepancy of the housing.For creating the model and making evaluations by finite element method we used a program COMSOL. Forces on the top and bottom of the rail cause tension stresses, forces on the web of the rail cause tensile stresses. …”

Structural Health Monitoring of Precast Concrete Box Girders Using Selected Vibration-Based Damage Detection Methods by Zhengjie Zhou, Leon D. Wegner, Bruce F. Sparling

“…Strain gauges configured to measure curvature were also effective, but tended to be susceptible to large errors in near support damage cases. Finite element analyses demonstrated that increasing the number of sensor locations leads to a proportional increase in localization accuracy, while the use of additional modes provides little advantage and can sometimes lead to a deterioration in the performance of the VBDD techniques.…”
