New learning with simulators. They have long been common practice in training and further education in many places: pilots overcome difficult flight situations without the fear of doing something wrong. Dentistry students practise on dental simulators and do not inflict pain on anyone in the process. For prospective and experienced radiographers (MTR), Siemens Healthineers has now developed the SmartSimulator, on which they can practise using MRI, CT and post-processing software – in a group or on their own. For trainees, this is the introduction to practice without blocking modalities. And you can use it even on your own PC in your home office. Experienced radiographers use the simulator to learn about new equipment and how to handle scan protocols. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Using numerical simulation tools, we calculated the temporal evolution of heat and moisture transport in train walls including condensation and evaporation processes. The calculations are based on data (temperature, humidity, etc,] that were measured on an operating train during one year in Switzerland. The calculations were carried out in one dimension with a characteristic wall structure that allows unhindered moisture exchange between the train interior and the thermal insulation. Despite the moisture exchange, the calculations show no longterm accumulation of moisture in the insulation. On the cold side of the insulation, the water content may increase depending on the temperature gradient and interior humidity, but the insulation dries up again within hours to a few days. During times of high water content, the increase of the water content is only significant within a few millimeters on the cold side of the insulation. Therefore, the thermal conductivity of most of the insulation remains low and the insulation maintains its insulating function. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
