The potential for suppressing rail defect growth through tailoring rail thermo-mechanical properties by I., David, N., Fletcher, H. Sanusi, Shahmir

“…Thermal damage of rails can occur through brake lock-up, or traction control system failure to prevent wheel spin. In most cases the damage produced is shallow and takes the form of a “white etching layer”, usually thought to have a martensitic structure, formed as the steel is heated above its eutectoid tem-perature and then rapidly cooled as the wheel moves away. …”

Tetraazamacrocyclic ligands and their copper complexes by Judd, P. M.

“…For the 15-membered macrocycle, 18,19,20,21-tetrahydro-17-H-tribenzo(f,j,n)(1,5,9,12)tetraazacyclopentadecine, derivatives bearing different substituents in one of the benzene rings were prepared. For the diimine ligands of this type both cationic and neutral copper(II) complexes were isolated and characterised; (the latter type result from loss of anilino protons on complex formation.) …”
