Abstract:

The analysis of the well-known designs and technologies for manufacture of rail tracks for light rail transit (LRT) allows to assess trends in development of this type of transportation, as well as to reveal an underestimation of public rail transport referring to the existing «tendency to eliminate tram traffic» in several Russian cities, despite the problems of urban ground passenger transport associated with a limited resource of urban space.The prospects for development of urban ground passenger transport systems of LRT type were considered regarding adoption of new types of rolling stock,

Abstract:

Track decay rate (TDR), meaning the rate of attenuation of bending waves through the rail, is the most important indicator of a track’s dynamic characteristic impacting the rail noise emission. TDR depends on various parameters related to the construction of the track, and it can be increased using rail dampers. These are mechanical devices working on the principle of dynamic absorbers and are attached to the rail. This paper addresses the track with light rails needing improvements to reduce the rail noise emission using a particular rail damper with a mixed damping system (rubber–oil). The b

Abstract:

The acoustic environment of urban residential areas is closely related to road traffic noise. More specifically, the effect of the light rail on the old residential area in Chongqing is potentially profound. Using geographic information system (GIS) to construct a map of the urban light rail’s influence on the acoustic environment of residential areas, the influence of noise can be determined. Very few studies exist on the impact of light rails on the acoustic environment of residential areas, and there is no literature on the impact of light rails on the acoustic environment of residential ar

Abstract:

In this study, the measured track impact factor induced by the wheel–rail contact impact force of each test section (two continuous welded rails on slab tracks and rail joint on a ballasted track) was compared with the design track impact factor under service conditions of a curved light-rail transit system. The measured track impact factor (TIF) was estimated from the measured dynamic wheel load and vertical rail displacement at each test section. In the case of the rail joint section, the rail joint was found to directly affect the track impact factor. Moreover, the dynamic wheel load fluctu

Abstract:

Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries. In many new and refurbished networks, turf—or grass—tracks are being used as a means to get a reserved right-of-way that entails enhancements in the city landscape. These tracks can facilitate acceptance of the system by citizens and politicians. The visual impact of turf tracks is only one of their many advantages, which are discussed in this paper. Among the advantages are a reduction in noise and suspended fine particles, the “green lung” effect, improvements in rainwater management and heat island mitigation, and a decreas

Abstract:

The inadequacy of road transport to cope effectively with the movement of passengers in Nigeria cannot be overemphasised as this has implications on the economy. Rail transport plays a key role in the socio-economic development of nations. However, the non-functioning of the railway system due to neglect over the years further compounded the problem. Due to the ever-increasing passenger traffic especially in the urban centres, there is urgent need to introduce a transit system that is fast, safe, reliable, and clean with high passenger capacity to address the transportation problem.

Abstract:

Rates of car ownership in the United States exceed that of all other large nations in the world. This high rate contributes to the unexpressed demand for road space that renders highway expansion useless as a strategy for decreasing traffic congestion. It also necessitates the provision of on-site parking in residential buildings, decreasing the affordability of housing in urban areas. Furthermore, the curb-side parking needed to make room for the high number of cars in the country takes away space that could be used for bike lanes, transit lanes, or widened sidewalks.

One of the main objectives of public transport operators is to adhere to the planned timetable and to provide accurate information to passengers in order to improve actual and perceived service reliability. The aim of this thesis is to address the flowing question: how can the accuracy of a prediction system for light rail systems be measured and improved? The real-time prediction is an output of a telecommunication system, named Automatic Vehicle Location System, which computerizes the predictions.

Use of the LRT poses special problems to blind users and requires skill in mobility. The premise of the study was that blind persons who felt confident in travelling independently were more likely to use the LRT than those who do not. The study also examined the difficulties blind persons experienced in LRT use. The subjects were 63 persons between the ages of 19 and 65 who responded to a survey questionnaire. Thirty fi

Abstract:

Abstract The development of modem materials and construction techniques has revolutionized the design approach for controlling stray current generated by dc-operated light rail transit systems. The magnitude of stray current these systems generate can be significantly reduced by electrically insulating the negative return (running rails) from ground, providing numerous closely spaced traction power substations, and utilizing continuously welded rail. However, this concept of “source control” of stray current should not preclude the use of cathodic protection (CP) systems as an integral part of
