This book was released on 1993 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After several decades of the promotion of road transport, we have realised that the provision of more roads will not on its own solve our traffic problems. More emphasis is being placed on rail transport. This book reviews the international and national scene in all sectors of the industry, and takes a look at the development in the 21st century.
Download or read book Modern Railway Engineering written by Ali Hessami and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2018-03-07 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the advent of steam engines and higher throughput railways during the early nineteenth century, the rate of development has been rather steady and incremental. The development of advanced electronic control and command systems, increasing levels of automation, and electrified high-speed railways over the past few decades have transformed the rail transportation posing it as a competitor to aviation. Modern railways are no longer the sole forte of civil and mechanical engineering and involve a broad multidisciplinary engineering disciplines from advanced computing, telecommunications, and networking to big data analytics and even AI. This volume addresses the diverse, evolving, and advanced engineering disciplines including enabling practices and processes involved in shaping modern railways.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To convey modern China’s history and the forces driving its economic success, rail has no equal. From warlordism to Cultural Revolution, railroads suffered the country’s ills but persisted because they were exemplary institutions. Elisabeth Köll shows why they remain essential to the PRC’s technocratic economic model for China’s future.

Download or read book Modern Railway Engineering Consultation written by Zhu Ying and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-08-15 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Report on the rapid development of railway engineering construction in China, this book introduces the basic concepts of railway engineering supported by reference to cases. This book underpins the experiences and technologies of the Chinese engineering sector in railway construction and explores systematic and optimal design in safety, reliability, applicability, economy, durability, systematic nature and interface in relation to railway engineering, and construction, to ensure the quality control at every stage of the process. The authors of this book have long been engaged in the design, consultation and research of railways and directed the engineering consultation on many high-speed railways in China, including Beijing-Shanghai High-speed Railway and Wuhan-Guangzhou Passenger Dedicated Railway. This book was compiled on the basis of the systematic analysis and summary of railway engineering consultation and in consideration of engineering consultation practices. This book is an excellent reference for relevant personnel engaged in the management, design, consultation and construction of railways and teachers and students in universities and colleges.
Download or read book ISMR 2020 written by X. Lei and published by IOS Press. This book was released on 2021-01-04 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many countries, the development of railway science is of great significance to both the economy and society, and transdisciplinary studies involving railways and other fields has also become more important in recent years. This book presents the proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Innovation & Sustainability of Modern Railway (ISMR 2020), held in Nanchang, China from 23 - 25 October 2020. The symposium has been held biennially since 2008 and is principally aimed at expanding the scientific partnership between Russian and Chinese transport universities in the field of railway transportation. It is organized in a collaboration between the Federal Railway Transport Agency, Irkutsk State Transport University (IrGUPS) and East China Jiaotong University, and enables scientists from Russia, China and Mongolia to come together to discuss breakthrough technologies, as well as the problems of innovation in the secure operation of modern railways. Despite the disruption caused by the global pandemic, 89 submissions were received for the 2020 edition, 38 of which were selected after review for presentation and publication here. These comprise 12 papers dealing with railways and mechanics, 20 covering railways and computer sciences, and 6 related to railways and management, together with the 2 contributions of the invited keynote speakers (professor Xiaoyan Lei, principle of East China Jiaotong University, and professor Erol Guler from George Mason University). The book provides an insight into new ideas and developments in the industry, and will be of interest to all railway practitioners.

Download or read book Railway Research written by Krzysztof Zboinski and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2015-12-16 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on selected research problems of contemporary railways. The first chapter is devoted to the prediction of railways development in the nearest future. The second chapter discusses safety and security problems in general, precisely from the system point of view. In the third chapter, both the general approach and a particular case study of a critical incident with regard to railway safety are presented. In the fourth chapter, the question of railway infrastructure studies is presented, which is devoted to track superstructure. In the fifth chapter, the modern system for the technical condition monitoring of railway tracks is discussed. The compact on-board sensing device is presented. The last chapter focuses on modeling railway vehicle dynamics using numerical simulation, where the dynamical models are exploited.
