On the rationing the parameters of asymmetric loading of all-purpose freight cars by A. M. BRZHEZOVSKIY

“…To this end, it is proposed to apply a comprehensive methodology for determining the allowable parameters of asymmetrical placement of freights, based on a combination of strength criteria of the bearing elements of cars, ensuring the normative level of dynamic qualities and stability of the loaded car. The article provides an example of determining the permissible parameters of the joint lateral and longitudinal displacement of the total center of gravity of the car (ЦТгр°), loaded to the nominal capacity. …”

Improving the efficiency of manuscript selection by A. Martínez-Abraín

“…Such a system would improve the quality of the final paper and facilitate the work load for second–round reviewers and editors. Indeed, some journals already seem to be implementing a solution which is fairly similar to our proposal, asking authors of rejected papers for permission to forward reviewer reports to the new journal chosen by the authors to submit the revised work (see Hochberg et al., 2009). …”
