2. Study of soils used with subgrade and sub-ballast in Brazilian railways
Abstract Brazil has an extremely limited railroad network compared to other developed and developing countries. There are projects to expand this mesh. Knowing that the cost of implementing a railroad is high, research for solutions that allow cost reduction is of great importance. But the parameters of the materials used in the subgrade and sub-ballast laye

3. Revisiting the History of Chagas Disease: "Live to tell"
Abstract In 1907, Carlos Chagas was designated to fight paludism in the Rio das Velhas region along the Central do Brasil railroad. During his field research, Chagas discovered a hematophagous insect ( Panstrongylus megitus ) carrying a new trypanosomatide, which he named Trypanosoma cruzi . On April 14th, 1909, he found the same parasite in the blood of a f

4. Dynamic Response Analysis of Geogrid Reinforced Embankment Supported by CFG Pile Structure During a High-Speed Train Operation
Abstract The performance of railroad structure has a tremendous influence on the safety and stable operation of high-speed trains. Strong vibrations and the degradation rate of the track are the main factors affecting the transport safety of a railroad built over a weak soil. Geogrid reinforced embankment supported by pile structure is a new efficient constr

8. Brazilian Bioluminescent Beetles: Reflections on Catching Glimpses of Light in the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado
ABSTRACT Bioluminescence - visible and cold light emission by living organisms - is a worldwide phenomenon, reported in terrestrial and marine environments since ancient times. Light emission from microorganisms, fungi, plants and animals may have arisen as an evolutionary response against oxygen toxicity and was appropriated for sexual attraction, predation

9. A mixed integer programming approach for freight railcar distribution
Abstract The attendance of the demand for freight transport is related to the process of allocation of the wagons that in turn is associated with the way in which the decision is taken. The distribution of wagons to the shipment terminals depends on the planning as well as on movement of the empty wagons. In addition, the trips of the empty wagons have the m

10. New Transition Wedge Design Composed by Prefabricated Reinforced Concrete Slabs
Abstract Important track degradation occurs in structure-embankment transitions, in which an abrupt change in track vertical stiffness arises, leading to a reduction in passengers comfort and safety. Although granular wedges are suggested by different railroad administrations as a solution to avoid these problems, they present some disadvantages which may af

11. Sensitivity analysis of bridge-track-train system to parameters of railway
Generally, Railway bridges are long structures which have different responses against different loads of train. Applied loads of train on railroad bridges are different in terms of axle loads speed, and annual passed tonnages and they have quite different dynamic behavior in comparison with road bridges. Most researches are basically focused on the quasi-sta

12. Requalificação de ativo público em obsolescência tecnológica: a ferrovia tronco centro de Pernambuco
O estudo objetivou levantar as possibilidades de requalificação da Linha Tronco Centro de Pernambuco (LTCPE), um ativo ferroviário secular, em bitola métrica, com 608 km de extensão, desenvolvidos ao longo da linha dorsal do Estado de Pernambuco. Sua relevância se justifica pela solicitação da Concessionária ao Governo federal de devolução do patr
