Chinese Railway Transportation: Opportunity and Challenge

China’s Railway Transportation (CRT) is enjoying a time of unprecedented development thanks to huge government investment and a series of aggressive favorable policies. Understanding the opportunities and challenges facing the CRT affords the practitioners and policy makers a better perception of development regarding this important transportation mode. This paper attempts to comprehensively as...

investigation of gassing behavior, electric and dielectric properties of different insulating fluids.

ترانسفورماتورهای قدرت از اجزای اصلی شبکه تامین انرژی الکتریکی می باشند که عملکرد قابل اطمینان ترانسفورماتورها یکی از فاکتورهای مهم و تعیین کننده در تامین انرژی الکتریکی محسوب می شود. در نتیجه بررسی و مانیتور عملکرد ترانسفورماتورها در شبکه و همچنین عیب یابی این ترانسفورماتورها غیرقابل اجتناب و ضروری می باشد. به طور کلی عایق های مایع در صنعت فشار قوی کاربردهای متفاوتی دارند که مهمترین وظیفه آنها...

Mathematical Solutions for Solving Periodic Railway Transportation

Train scheduling has been a significant issue in the railway industry. Over the last few years, numerous approaches and tools have been developed to compute railway scheduling. In this paper, we present a set of heuristics for a constraint-based train scheduling tool, which is a project in collaboration with the National Network of Spanish Railways RENFE , Spain. We formulate train scheduling a...

International Glutamate Technical Committee

While sodium reduction in the diet is an important objective, when salt (NaCl) levels are reduced in foods, its palatability is also generally decreased. Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a flavour enhancer that contains about 12% sodium, which is less than half of that contained in regular table salt at about 39%. Therefore, by the addition of an appropriate amount of MSG, the palatability of low ...
