Train running safety is a major concern among railway engineers, since a derailment may
cause significant personal and material damages. This problem becomes more important if …

Flexible demand management for residential load scheduling, which considers constraints,
such as load operating time window and order between them, is a key aspect in demand …

Railways are one of the most widely used mass transportation systems. Its superior
transportation capacity, low environmental impact, high safety, and comfort have been …

Cracking frequently encountered in railway bridges can lead to significant changes in bridge
dynamic characteristics and further dynamic performance of train–bridge interaction (TBI) …

The consideration of vehicle-bridge-interaction effects can be crucial in the computational
determination of realistic dynamic bridge vibrations during train crossing. In order to …

The simulation of the dynamic behavior of the train-track system is strongly dependent on
the accuracy of the numerical models of the train and track subsystems. The use of …

The dynamic response of railway bridges is important to consider, as the high velocity
loading from the trains increases the risk of resonance. Increasing train speeds and loads …

Dynamic vehicle–bridge interaction (VBI) plays a crucial role in the train-induced vibrations
of a railway bridge for its coupling effects may reduce the bridge response and down-shift …

Abstract The Bosphorus Suspension Bridge, which connects the Asian and European sides,
has a geopolitical importance in terms of its location, and has also been integrated with …

Structural damping is an important characteristic in railway bridges, which affects the
performance of the structure, especially for bridges with train speeds higher than 200 km/h …
