Abstract:
Railway tracks experience elevated rail deflections when the supporting soil is soft and/or the train speed is greater than approximately 50% of the wave propagation velocity in the track-soil system (i.e. the critical velocity). Such vibrations are undesirable, so soil replacement or soil improvement of the natural soil (or alternatively mini-piles or lime-cement treatment) is often used to increase track-ground stiffness prior to line construction. Although areas of existing soft subgrade might be easily identified on a potential new rail route, it is challenging to determine the type and de

Abstract:
Master of Science<br>Department of Civil Engineering<br>Eric J. Fitzsimmons<br>The rail industry's recent shift towards larger and heavier railcars has influenced Class III / short line railroad operation and track maintenance costs. Class III railroads earn less than $38.1 million in in annual revenue and generally operate first and last leg shipping for their customers. In Kansas, Class III railroads operate approximately 40 percent of the roughly 2,800 miles (4,500 km) of rail; however, due to the current Class III track condition they move lighter railcars at lower speeds than Class I ra

Abstract:
The thesis Mounted on a Pedestal, chronicles the life of Bertha Honoré Palmer. The focus of her story are the years after 1910, when she traveled to Sarasota, Florida and heralded the flight to the southernmost state, leading the pack in the purchase and development of land in the Sarasota/ Tampa Bay area. The totality of her years prior to that time serve as a prelude to her accomplishments and the vicissitudes of her life in the sleepy little fishing village she found. Born in Louisville, Kentucky, in 1849, she was provided with a privileged, comfortable childhood and a sheltered academic ed

O aumento da produtividade das ferrovias, observado no período pós-concessão da operação à iniciativa privada, é decorrente da utilização de composições com grandes comprimentos e elevadas cargas por eixo, aplicação de tecnologias para o gerenciamento do sistema e investimentos na infra-estrutura. Entretanto, a intensificação do tráfego na malha ferroviária resultou no aumento do desgaste da via permanente, que aliada às restrições geométricas exigiu a imposição de limites operacionais de velocidades, comprometendo significativamente a capacidade de processamento de trens.

Abstract:
This research puts forth an examination of the relationship between municipal planning and short line freight railroads. Methodologically, it employs a content analysis framework that explores local master plans and zoning bylaws for the presence of concepts relevant to short line railroads. A historically omitted topic, the railroads are found to be frequently omitted from plans, often conflicting with civic and recreational interests despite their increasingly efficient ability, economic and environmental, to service numerous industries. Zoning bylaws show a disfavor to these entities, and a

This thesis develops a framework for analyzing the application of commuter rail and bus services between several small urban centers to enhance overall connectivity. The study includes analyzing specific performance criteria for commuter rail service and express bus service based on data from existing systems around the U.S. The study then compares these findings to the theoretical performance of commuter rail and express bus service in the U.S. Highway 20 corridor from Corvallis, OR to Lebanon, OR via Albany, OR. The study concludes that commuter rail rated higher in six of eight analysis cri
