High-speed electric multiple units have numerous advantages. However, a number of critical maintenance issues arise in the operation of high-speed electric multiple units. The previous researches about rail profile design usually take only a single type of wheel profile into account, which would cause some other problems such as severe increase of Continue Reading »
With the rapid development of sensing, communication, computing technologies, and analytics techniques, today’s manufacturing is marching towards a new generation of sustainability, digitalization, and intelligence. Even though the significance of both sustainability and intelligence is well recognized by academia, industry, as well as governments, and substantial efforts are devoted to both areas, Continue Reading »
With the rapid development of sensing, communication, and computing technologies and infrastructure, today’s manufacturing industry is marching towards a big data era and a new generation of digitalization and intelligence. The availability of big data provides us with a golden opportunity to promote smart manufacturing. Nevertheless, the deployment and popularization of big data analytics in manufacturing are still Continue Reading »
High-speed electric multiple units (EMUs) have been popularized rapidly all around the world and have become a major transportation method. The working mechanism of rail grinding has not been investigated theoretically. This study develops flexible car body and human body models based on the rigid-flexible coupled method to systematically study the effects Continue Reading »
High-resolution spatial data are essential for characterizing and monitoring surface quality in manufacturing. However, the measurement of high-resolution spatial data is generally expensive and time-consuming. Interpolation based on spatial models is a typical approach to cost-effectively acquire high-resolution data. Conventional modeling methods fail to adequately model the spatial correlation induced by periodicity, Continue Reading »
