Download or read book Electronic Interlocking on Indian Railways written by Purnachandra Rao Vallabhaneni and published by Notion Press, Incorporated. This book was released on 2018-06-11 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microprocessor controlled railway signaling or commonly termed Electronic Interlocking is in operation from the late 1980s on the World Railways and introduced in India in the 1990s.It has replaced older relay based and electro-mechanical systems in phases. As software is present extensively in such systems, safety is of prime concern to the users, in addition to the requirements of reliability. Methods of ensuring safety and preventing hazards have been covered extensively in the book. -Details of all the types of Electronic Interlocking systems installed on Indian Railways are illustrated. -The advantage of a single processor with concurrent error detection compared to two out of two and two out of three modular systems in the matter of reliability, safety and economy has been discussed. -Some methods of hazard analysis relevant to electronic systems have been dealt, with suggestions for improvement of components for safety and reliability. -Verification of hardware and software with computer aided methods along with simulation has been described. -Formal verification of railway interlocking with the application of theoretical computer science and software tools has been explained. -Application of systems engineering to the operation and maintenance of electronic interlocking system for enhancing safety is covered in a separate chapter.

Download or read book Transport Law in India written by Talat Fatima and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2021-10-21 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this book provides a systematic approach to transport law as applied in India. The book describes the main sources of transport law, jurisdiction and courts, state immunity, and the legal role of transport intermediaries, with detailed reference to maritime law, transport by road, transport by air, transport by rail, and inland navigation. A special chapter is devoted to multimodal transport. Among the elements of transport law considered are the legal status of the vessel; its acquisition, ownership, and registration; vessel liens and mortgages; the position of master and crew; maritime salvage and assistance; marine pollution; collision; and carriage of passengers. Other topics discussed include liability and limitation of liability, charter parties, and transport under bill of lading. Case law, intergovernmental cooperation agreements, and interactions with environmental, tax, and competition law are also covered. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable resource for lawyers handling transport contracts or cases affecting India. It will also be welcomed by researchers and academics for its contribution to a field that continues to gain significance in the study of comparative law.
Download or read book The Modernisation of the West Coast Main Line written by Great Britain: National Audit Office and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2006-11-22 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This NAO report examines how effectively the Strategic Rail Authority/Department for Transport and Network Rail turned around the West Coast programme between 2002 and 2006 in terms of delivering outputs and expected outcomes in line with the schedule and targets set by the government and set out in the West Coast Main Line Strategy of June 2003. Three areas were examined in detail: how the Strategic Rail Authority/Department of Transport and Network Rail addressed the weaknesses in programme management before 2002 to achieve delivery to schedule; whether costs have been brought under control; whether the programme is delivering its anticipated benefits. A number of findings and conclusions have been set out, including: that the SRA and Network Rail did turn around the programme through an industry-supported strategy, reducing technology risk through reliance on conventional signalling for most of the upgrade; there were some implementation problems in two areas, axle counters and computer-based interlocking signalling, which resulted in an increase in costs; in general, Network Rail's control of costs has improved, but an analysis of its reported and forecast expenditure shows a final programme spend of £8.6 billion, with an overspend of around £300 million; for renewal work on the west coast route, Network Rail is within its overall funding allowance and on course to achieve 70% of the £940 million cost efficiencies assumed by the rail Regulator; at present the Strategic Rail Authority provides subsidies on an annual basis to Virgin West Coast of £590 million in 2005-06 period, this amount represents a payment needed to maintain train services and is outside the £8.6 billion; the project has delivered journey time improvements, with punctuality and train reliability on the West Coast having improved since 2005; in the 2005-06 period, passenger journeys on Virgin West Coast grew by over 20%, and the remaining work on the programme to 2009 will increase passenger train and freight capacity, but the consensus in the rail industry is that around 2015 to 2020, the line will have insufficient capacity to sustain current levels of growth in passenger and freight traffic; the overall strategy has delivered passenger benefits from a modernised track, but value for money for the programme has not been maximised. The report sets out a number of recommendations, including: that the Department in future should model and appraise costs and benefits for different options for the timing of delivery of the project; that the Department and the Office of Rail Regulation should further develop standard definitions for costs for different stages and elements of transport projects; where projects propose new technology at significant cost, the Department and ORR should ensure that Network Rail draws up a supporting business case, addressing costs, benefits and possible challenges along with a supporting implementation and maintenance strategy; the ORR should ensure Network Rail progresses its plans and adopts best practice strategy, and this approach should include a company-wide strategy that addresses whole life costs in its investment appraisal/project business cases, along with improved recording of maintenance and renewals costs for its equipment.

Book excerpt: "The book provides an in-depth look into the technology and implementation of the Kavach system, an indigenous Automatic Train Protection (ATP) system for digital railways. The book covers various topics such as the system architecture, wayside and train on-board vital systems & SIL-4 communication system, which is the highest level of safety integrity according to international standards. The Kavach system is designed to ensure the safe and efficient operation of trains and also provides a high level of security to protect against unauthorized access and manipulation. The approved Kavach system is available from Indian manufacturers and has been successfully tested and implemented in South Central Railway. The book provides a detailed understanding of the technology, making it a valuable resource for those interested in the Indian railway industry. The book “Kavach: Cab Signalling and Automatic Train Protection System for Digital Railway” provides an in-depth and comprehensive look at the technology behind the Kavach system.Contents: 1. KAVACH - An Overview 2. RFID Technology 3. Communication System for KAVACH 4. Communication Techniques in KAVACH 5. Network Monitoring System (NMS) 6. Remote Interface Unit (RIU) used in KAVACH 7.
