Rails are often joined by welding and about 80–90 per cent of tracks are welded using the flash-butt welding method. As the result of the welding process, high tensile residual stresses are induced in the web region of the rail, at and near the welded zone. Since the main part of the welded zone is coarse grained and…

Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles coated with 1–5 wt% Bi 2 O 3 were prepared by precipitating a Bi(NO 3 ) 3 solution onto a ZnO precursor. Transmission electron microscopy showed that a homogeneous Bi 2 O 3 layer coated the surface of the ZnO nanoparticles and that the ZnO particle size was ∼30–50 nm. Scanning electron m…
