Book Synopsis Risk-based Model for Effective Marshalling of Dangerous Goods Railway Cars by : Morteza Bagheri
Download or read book Risk-based Model for Effective Marshalling of Dangerous Goods Railway Cars written by Morteza Bagheri and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, railroad companies transport many varieties of dangerous goods (DG). Train derailments, especially those involving DG, can be catastrophic in terms of loss of life and environmental damage. In North America, the transportation of DG is governed by regulations published by the Canadian and United State's governments. While the regulation is important in terms of providing overall guidelines, they do not address the problem of optimally positioning DG cars in terms of their potential for derailment and the associated risks. Currently, most rail yard operations do not consider the potential effect of the position of DG cars on the risk of derailment. This research is concerned with the problem of how to place DG cars in a train in the train assembly process so that the overall derailment risk can be minimized. The approach considers both the probability of railway cars derailing en route by position as well as the time associated with additional operations in the rail yard. This work has resulted in a useful decision support tool for assisting rail yard operation managers to achieve an optimum trade-off between derailment risk and operating costs in assembling trains. The merits of this new car placement model are illustrated through a case study of a real railway corridor that connects Barstow Yard in California to Corwith Yard in Chicago over 2100 miles and involves a range of track features. The case study demonstrates that the proposed risk minimization strategy could be implemented with minimal rail yard operation cost.

Presents the first book available on the dynamics of coupled systems in high-speed trains Provides a systematic view of high-speed vehicle dynamics, covering the issues that are especially concerned for high speed operations, such as high-speed pantograph and catenary, aerodynamic characteristics and running stability of high-speed trains Covers the optimization of dynamic performance, the design of parameters, the simulation of high-speed train service processes, and the identification of high-speed train state and condition assessment
Book Synopsis Explaining Railway Reform in China by : Linda Tjia Yin-nor
Download or read book Explaining Railway Reform in China written by Linda Tjia Yin-nor and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Having been state-owned for decades, the railway reform in China confused many people, particularly in terms of its ownership and property rights arrangements. Western literature always prescribes that the best model for railway reform is privatization. China’s leadership has also enunciated the state’s determination to re-arrange property rights and rejuvenate corporate governance. But is China’s railway reform really a story of convergence and will the Chinese government follow the western model of railway reform? Addressing these questions, this book provides a positive explanation of the reform in China’s railway sector between 1978 and the dissolution of the Ministry of Railways. It bridges the socialist reform and transport policy literature, and studies the empirical changes of the property rights arrangements in China’s railway system. Refuting the convergence theory, it concludes that the cyclical reform policies of decentralization and re-centralization were actually an exploratory and interactive mechanism of "assets discovery" and "assets recovery". This in-depth study is based on 21 face-to-face interviews with railway cadres as well as field trips to collect first-hand information in Guangzhou, Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin and Wuhan. As one of the only empirical studies on the reform of the railway sector in China, this book will be of interest to students and scholars of China studies, Transport studies and Political Economy.

Book Synopsis The World Railway System by : Bernard de Fontgalland
Download or read book The World Railway System written by Bernard de Fontgalland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1984-11-08 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1980, and translated from French in this 1984 Cambridge version, this book is a systems analysis of the worldwide railway network. The work first refers to the principles of railway operations, the theory of systems, and railway technology. Two chapters are then devoted to production and sales, and they analyse the operational and economic aspects. Railway management and decision-making is then examined. Finally, the author describes the international aspects of railway operations, sets out a theory of macrosystems at the world level, and speculates on avenues for railway development.
