Rail roughness and rolling noise in tramways

Companies which manage railway networks have to cope continually with the problem of operating safety and maintenance intervention issues related to rail surface irregularities. A lot of experience has been gained in recent years in railway applications but the case of tramways is quite different; in this field there are no specific criteria to define any intervention on rail surface restoratio...

Numerical Modeling of Wet Steam Flow in Steam Turbine Channel

In power station practice, work is extracted from expanding steam in three stages namely High Pressure(HP), Intermediate Pressure(IP) and Low Pressure(LP) turbines. During the expansion process in the LP turbine, the steam cools down and at some stages, it nucleates to become a two-phase mixture. It is well-acknowledged in the literature that the nucleating and wet stages in steam turbines are ...

Howe Correspondence and Springer Correspondence

Consider real reductive group G, as defined in [Wal88]. Let Π be an irreducible admissible representation of G with the distribution character ΘΠ, [Har51]. Denote by uΠ the lowest term in the asymptotic expansion of ΘΠ, [BV80]. This is a finite linear combination of Fourier transforms of nilpotent coadjoint orbits, uΠ = ∑ O cOμ̂O. As shown by Rossmann, [Ros95], the closure of the union of the ni...
