Part 1 Railway systems in the world -- Privatization versus public funding on the Atacama desert railway - an interpretation -- The Role of light railway in sugarcane transport in Egypt -- Topological analysis of Tokyo Metropolitan Railway system -- Structural and kinematic analysis of EMS Maglev trains -- Maglev -- Competitiveness and sustainability of railways -- Modelling for railway infrastructure design and characterization -- Cellular automation modeling of passenger transport systems -- Power system modelling for urban massive transportation systems -- Optimized model updating of a railway bridge for increased accuracy in moving load simulations -- Controlling and simulation of stray currents in DC railway by considering the effects of collection mats -- Application of 3D simulation methods to the process of induction heating of rail turnouts -- EMC analysis of railway power substation modeling and measurements aspects.
Summary: "Ever since the first ever train was used to carry coal from a mine in Shropshire (England, 1600), the technology of railway transportation has never looked back. It has only evolved and developed and remains one of the most important developments in the history of mankind even in today's age. The biggest invention in this field was the development of steam locomotive, but it took another two hundred years for commercial rail travel to practically begin."--Back cover.
