Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What Is Personal Rapid Transit Personal rapid transit (PRT), also known as podcars or guided/railed taxis, is a form of public transportation that utilizes small automated vehicles and operates them on a network of specially built guideways. Other names for this type of transportation include personal rapid transit (PRT) and guided/railed taxis. Automated guideway transit (AGT) is a kind of system that also comprises bigger vehicles and extends all the way down to smaller subway systems. PRT falls under the AGT category. When it comes to the paths that it takes, it leans more like personal public transportation systems. How You Will Benefit (I) Insights, and validations about the following topics: Chapter 1: Personal rapid transit Chapter 2: People mover Chapter 3: Automated guideway transit Chapter 4: Passenger rail terminology Chapter 5: Cabinentaxi Chapter 6: Morgantown Personal Rapid Transit Chapter 7: ULTra (rapid transit) Chapter 8: Headway Chapter 9: SEA Underground Chapter 10: Cable Liner Chapter 11: Vought Airtrans Chapter 12: Ford ACT Chapter 13: Alden staRRcar Chapter 14: ROMAG Chapter 15: Computer-controlled Vehicle System Chapter 16: Public transport Chapter 17: Krauss-Maffei Transurban Chapter 18: Dashaveyor Chapter 19: Minitram Chapter 20: List of automated transit networks suppliers Chapter 21: Unbuilt Rosemont personal rapid transit system (II) Answering the public top questions about personal rapid transit. (III) Real world examples for the usage of personal rapid transit in many fields. (IV) 17 appendices to explain, briefly, 266 emerging technologies in each industry to have 360-degree full understanding of personal rapid transit' technologies. Who This Book Is For Professionals, undergraduate and graduate students, enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those who want to go beyond basic knowledge or information for any kind of personal rapid transit.

Book excerpt: This book summarizes the work on Personal Rapid Transit (PRT) carried out at the Aerospace Corporation from 1968 to 1976. It is intended as a reference for experts and a text for students of transportation engineering. Emphasis is on describing concepts rather than engineering details. PRT is an automated taxicab system, a public transit system of 3- to 6-passenger vehicles operating automatically on a network exclusive guideways separate from street and pedestrian traffic. The book reports on both theoretical studies about economics, networks, traffic management, vehicle propulsion and control and also on experiments testing concepts of propulsion and control.

Book excerpt: The full story of Personal Rapid Transit, a driverless, computer-controlled system of public transportation, has never before been told. Parts of this story have been told over and over again in countless meetings with government authorities at all levels and to many potential investors. It has been described in several technical books devoted to the subject, in hundreds of technical papers, and in the published proceedings of the International Conferences on PRT which have been held, usually at the major universities. But none of these sources tell the whole story. This is the first book to do so, and in a style that is enlightening, entertaining, and at times quite humorous. Despite his lighthearted fashion, the author shows how time and again the cause of PRT has been set back, sometimes unwittingly, by governmental and other forces, sometimes, but not always, acting in the perceived best interest of the public. Yet the proponents of PRT have managed to struggle on. PRT today is more thoroughly engineered prior to its commercialization than any other form of transportation in history. We stand today on the threshold of its realization. It is just a question of time until many of the cities of the world will have this revolutionary form of transportation.

Book excerpt: A comprehensive discussion of automated transit This book analyzes the successful implementations of automated transit in various international locations, such as Paris, Toronto, London, and Kuala Lumpur, and investigates the apparent lack of automated transit applications in the urban environment in the United States. The book begins with a brief definition of automated transit and its historical development. After a thorough description of the technical specifications, the author highlights a few applications from each sub-group of the automated transit spectrum. International case studies display various technologies and their applications, and identify vital factors that affect each system and performance evaluations of existing applications. The book then discusses the planning and operation of automated transit applications at both macro and micro levels. Finally, the book covers a number of less successful concepts, as well as the lessons learned, allowing readers to gain a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Key features: Provides a thorough examination of automated transit applications, their impact and implications for society Written by the committee chair for the Automated Transit Systems Transportation, Research Board Offers essential information on planning, costs, and applications of automated transit systems Covers driverless metros, automated LRT, group and personal rapid transit, a review of worldwide applications Includes capacity and safety guidelines, as well as vehicles, propulsion, and communication and control systems This book is essential reading for engineers, researchers, scientists, college or graduate students who work in transportation planning, engineering, operation and management fields.
