The book contains the scientific results of the programme as presented at the concluding colloquium held at University of Stuttgart, Germany, March 13-15, 2002.
This book aims to cover the need for a new scientific approach for railways.
By presenting important tools for a deep understanding of track-behaviour this book aims to be a reference guide for infrastructure managers and to help them to find ways improving track quality for optimum long-term behaviour.
Dynamic changes due to competition with other modes and their consequences also can be considered. ... We focus on energy and emissions among the many environmental impacts that intercity travel modes may impose, because these are ...
This book takes a scientific approach to railways, and is intended to be of use to railway managers, economists and engineers, consulting economists and engineers, students of schools of engineering, transportation and management.
