The subject of the research is rationing and monitoring of the vibration of knife refiners. GOST 26493-85, specifying the permissible values of the vibration amplitude of the mills, is outdated. This standard does not take into account new designs of knife refiners and the requirements of national and international standards. It is proposed to esta...
Temporal changes of seismic velocities generated at the subsurface by the 2011 Mw 9 Tohoku earthquake in Japan are analyzed using interferometry and autocorrelation of waveforms recorded by surface and borehole sensors at the KiK-net station IBRH16. Spectral ratios and interferometry of data recorded in moving time windows at the surface and a dept...
Ballast deterioration, under dynamic loads, remains an important issue on high-speed tracks that can lead to high maintenance costs. This ballast deterioration leads to settlements. Several studies have shown that these settlements were linked to high accelerations produced in the ballast by high-speed train (HST) passages. The solution with bitumi...
A strengthening system with adhesively bonded CFRP reinforcement was developed in the Infravation project FASSTbridge to extend the remaining fatigue lifetime of existing steel bridge constructions. The premature debonding of CFRP and steel is seen as a major risk to lose the contribution of the retrofitting system. Consequently, an ultrathin debon...
The report substantiates the directions of development of diagnostics of the technical condition of the equipment as the basis for improving maintenance and repair of technological equipment of various industries, including pulp and paper production. / В докладе обосновываются направления развития диагностики технического состояния оборудования как...
Managing the scour risk of civil structures such as bridge piers, constitutes a major challenge to sustainable development and land use planning. The SSHEAR project aims to build optimized diagnostic, warning and management methods to benefit civil structures. This article is focused on the "Field" approach of the project that develop continuous an...
Understanding the gender dimensions of community-based groundwater governance is important because men and women differ in their need for and having access to groundwater, and their participation in the development, management and monitoring of the resource. The leading role played by women in obtaining and safeguarding water is not usually reflect...

To evaluate the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in Canada. A 63-question electronic survey was developed with the Canadian Rheumatology Association and others. Descriptive analyses of responses were performed. Survey respondents (n = 175) reported varying practices in the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatme...
