Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Railway Problem and the Railways of the Future The other prodigious statement to which we have referred is one which Mr. Haughton, of the north-western Railway, made in a letter to ourselves the other day, though he is not alone responsible for it. Mr. Fairlie, in his paper read before the Society of Arts last year, Mr. Haughton, in his paper read before the Society of Civil Engineers, and Mr. Haggard, in his pamphlet entitled A Mile of Railway, proved very clearly that there is an enormous disproportion between the net and tare of train loads. In Mr. Haggard's pamphlet it is stated, on figures furnished by Mr. Haugh ton, that every passenger carried by rail weighs a ton; in other words, that supposing a passenger and his luggage to weigh in reality two hundredweight, the rolling stock which has to be set in motion in order to convey him to his destination multiplies his weight tenfold, so that from every passenger a ton has to be hauled.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City and South London Railway, Vol. 1: With Some Remarks Upon Subaqueous Tunnelling, by Shield and Compressed Air There are three pairs of pumping engines, so arranged that each can be worked independently of, or jointly with, either of or both the others, and controlled automatically by the accumulator in the usual way. Permanent Way - It was thought to be very desirable to avoid the introduction of ballast on this line with a view to the comfort of travellers, having regard to the strong air currents set up by the trains, and to the durability of rolling stock, especially of the electric locomotives, and of the way itself. The rails, weighing 60 lbs. Per yard, are placed upon cross Sleepers resting directly upon the cast-iron segments of the tunnel, Figs. 14 and 15, Plate 3. The rails, it will be observed, are single-headed and are set some distance from the ends of the Sleepers. This permanent way, though subject to the disadvantage of increasing the resonance in the tunnel, gives remarkably good results as regards repairs and maintenance.

Download or read book Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-07-29 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scores of talented and dedicated people serve the forensic science community, performing vitally important work. However, they are often constrained by lack of adequate resources, sound policies, and national support. It is clear that change and advancements, both systematic and scientific, are needed in a number of forensic science disciplines to ensure the reliability of work, establish enforceable standards, and promote best practices with consistent application. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States: A Path Forward provides a detailed plan for addressing these needs and suggests the creation of a new government entity, the National Institute of Forensic Science, to establish and enforce standards within the forensic science community. The benefits of improving and regulating the forensic science disciplines are clear: assisting law enforcement officials, enhancing homeland security, and reducing the risk of wrongful conviction and exoneration. Strengthening Forensic Science in the United States gives a full account of what is needed to advance the forensic science disciplines, including upgrading of systems and organizational structures, better training, widespread adoption of uniform and enforceable best practices, and mandatory certification and accreditation programs. While this book provides an essential call-to-action for congress and policy makers, it also serves as a vital tool for law enforcement agencies, criminal prosecutors and attorneys, and forensic science educators.
