On modeling the variability of bedform dimensions
Bedforms are irregular features that cannot easily be described by mean values. The variations in the geometric dimensions affect the bed roughness, and they are important in the modeling of vertical sorting and in modeling the thickness of cross-strata sets. The authors analyze the variability of bedform dimensions for three sets of flume experiments, considering PDFs of bedform height, trough...
متن کاملQuantification of the influence of the track geometry variability on the train dynamics
In a context of increasing interoperability, several high speed trains, such as ICE, TGV, ETR 500, are likely to run on the same tracks, whereas they have been originally designed for specific and different railway networks. Due to different mechanical properties and structures, the dynamic behaviors, the aggressiveness of the vehicle on the track and the probabilities of exceeding security and...
متن کاملQuantification of variability in trichome patterns
While pattern formation is studied in various areas of biology, little is known about the noise leading to variations between individual realizations of the pattern. One prominent example for de novo pattern formation in plants is the patterning of trichomes on Arabidopsis leaves, which involves genetic regulation and cell-to-cell communication. These processes are potentially variable due to, ...
متن کاملBedform climbing in theory and nature
Where bedforms migiate during deposition, they move upward (climb) with respect to the generalized sediment surface. Sediment deposited on each lee slope and not eroded during the passage of a following trough is left behind as a cross-stratified bed. Because sediment is thus transferred from bedforms to underlying strata, bedforms must decrease in cross-sectional area or in number, or both, un...
متن کاملModeling the Track Geometry Variability
At its building, the theoretical new railway line is supposed to be made of perfect straight lines and curves. This track geometry is however gradually damaged and regularly subjected to maintenance operations. The analysis of these track irregularities is a key issue as the dynamic behaviour of the trains is mainly induced by the track geometry. In this context, this work is devoted to the dev...
