Download or read book Ground Effect Train written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Ground Effect Train An alternative to a magnetic levitation train (sometimes known as a maglev train) is a ground effect train. In both scenarios, avoiding the vehicle making contact with the ground should be the primary focus of the driver. While a maglev train does this via the utilization of magnetism, a ground effect train does so through the utilization of an air cushion, either in the manner of a hovercraft or by the utilization of the "wing-in-ground-effect" design.

Download or read book Hovertrain written by Fouad Sabry and published by One Billion Knowledgeable. This book was released on 2022-10-25 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Hovertrain A hovertrain is a kind of high-speed train that substitutes traditional steel wheels with hovercraft lift pads. Additionally, the standard railway bed is replaced with a paved road-like surface that is known as the track or guideway. The purpose of the idea is to reduce the complexity of the infrastructure required to install new lines while simultaneously eliminating rolling resistance and enabling very high performance. The word "hovertrain" is more of a general phrase, and the specific vehicles are often called to by the project titles under which they were created. In the United Kingdom, these vehicles are referred to as tracked hovercraft, whereas in the United States, they are known as tracked air-cushion vehicles. In France, Jean Bertin (1917-1975) was the first person to design a hovertrain. In France, these trains were marketed as the Aérotrain until the French government decided to terminate the project.

Download or read book Noise Mapping in the EU written by Gaetano Licitra and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2012-09-06 with total page 443 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Noise mapping is the first tool to effectively assess noise exposure, communicating information to citizens, and defining effective action plans for protecting citizens from high noise levels and preserving quiet areas in urban European Community environments. Indeed, strategic noise maps are now required in the European Union for all population centers of more than 250,000 inhabitants, as well as for major roads, railways, and airports, and are becoming required for urban areas with over 100,000 people. Providing a comprehensive reference guide for students, researchers, acoustics consultants, and environmental agencies, Noise Mapping in the EU: Models and Procedures shows how to integrate data with geographical information systems, improve accuracy in model and prediction software, and assess different methods and descriptors for evaluating annoyance and noise exposure. It offers guidance on regulations, communication processes, physical aspects, and application of noise mapping, as well as on communication processes for citizens involved in decision making. Beginning with fundamental concepts in acoustics and a presentation of legal frameworks for noise mapping in Europe, the book covers all the main issues about noise mapping. It presents numerical models for roads, railways, airports, harbours, and industrial sites. The chapters are written by European experts from a range of research institutes, companies, and environmental agencies. Using a practical approach and worked examples, the text discusses control and uncertainty in input data and output results, technical recommendations from working groups, and the Good Practice Guide (GPG) tool. It provides in-depth coverage of geographic information system (GIS) techniques for noise management and the evaluation and management of noise exposure, and concludes by reviewing noise mapping experiences in Europe, communication to the public, and future perspectives for mapping the effects of noise.
