Modelling car motion and the calculation of the wear of wheels with the VNITsTT rolling surface profile by A. M. Orlova, Yu. V. Savushkina, V. I. Fedorova

“…The wear problem of wheels along rolling surface or thin flange is currently involved a large circle of specialists. There are opinions that it is necessary to establish new limit values for wheel wear in operation, put into practice the re-profiling (profile grin ding) of rails, install a larger number of floor-mounted lubricators in places of increased rail wear intensity, but one of the priority direction in this area is the development of a new surface rolling wheel profile for freight cars, the use of which will help to increase the turnaround time and increase the service life of the wheels in operation. …”

Synthesis of magnetite nanoparticles using electrochemical oxidation by Ye. Ya. Levitin, I. D. Roy, O. S. Kryskiv, T. M. Chan

“…To intensify the anodic process it is necessary to apply the mixing that reduces the thickness of the diffusion layer near the electrode and allows oxidation at a current density of 0.7-1.2 A/dm2. Under appropriate conditions of electrolysis (high current density of the cathode, acidification of the solution) loss of iron Fe2+ is avoided at the expense of cathodic discharge, as mainly at the cathode the reducing of cations H+ occurs. …”

Task Differences and Prosociality; Investigating Pet Dogs' Prosocial Preferences in a Token Choice Paradigm. by Rachel Dale, Rachel Dale, Mylène Quervel-Chaumette, Ludwig Huber, Friederike Range, Sarah Marshall-Pescini

“…However, in contrast to our previous bar-pulling experiment, we could not exclude social facilitation as an underlying motive in the current task. We propose this difference in results between tasks may be related to increased task complexity in the token choice paradigm, making it harder for dogs to discriminate between the test and social facilitation conditions. …”
