Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on research related to railway engineering and science. Topics include the aerodynamics of high-speed trains in tunnels, seismic responses of metro tunnels, rail rolling contact fatigue, rail grinding mechanisms, wheel-rail creep characteristics, and the performance and maintenance of high-speed railway infrastructure. It also covers aspects of railway operations, such as marshalling station capacity optimization, train control safety data transmission, and the impact of train delays on passenger travel choices. Additionally, the journal addresses structural analysis of railway components like box girders and pipelines, as well as material properties relevant to railway applications.
