Book excerpt: Sustainable Mass Transit: Challenges and Opportunities in Urban Public Transportation, Second Edition highlights the many sustainability solutions and alternatives to fossil fuel usage including renewable energy and efficiency in mass transit, as well as the conservation of materials, water, and air and the overall health of communities. This new edition will update the reader on developments in the field since 2017 and advancements in sustainability solutions. It explores how Environmental Management System frameworks improve environmental performance in the operations, maintenance, design, rehabilitation, and expansion of a mass transportation system. The book covers the numerous types of mass transit systems, looking closely at all their key functions, including operations, maintenance, development, design, building, and retrofitting. It explores the mitigation measures that reduce or eliminate negative environmental impacts, including green infrastructure, materials conservation, ecological conservation, and more. It covers energy, greenhouse gas emissions, toxic pollution and other significant environmental impacts, recycling, and more. It also examines organizational best practices and environmental regulatory constraints and life cycle assessments, describing which sustainable elements can be added while rehabilitating or expanding a mass transportation infrastructure or ancillary facility. The book concludes with a look at forthcoming sustainable initiatives that will enhance mass transit systems. Contains case studies from around the world, including several new case studies from the United States, Canada, Mexico, South America, Europe and Asia Thoroughly updated with four new chapters on The Sustainable Mass Transit Revolution, Relevance of Mass Transit, Environmental Professionals in Transportation, and Reimagining Sustainable Mass Transit Includes a new companion website with assessment questions for educators, image files and video presentations Shows how teams from different fields, entities, agencies and cities can work together to solve complex sustainability challenges

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The challenges in metro operations keep the operations managers on their toes to continually explore innovative ways to resolve the day-to-day issues and keep the organization sustainable. In absence of any precedence, often solutions are tried ab initio. The book presents comprehensive coverage of various operational issues such as running of trains, customer-centric timetabling, management of stations, depot, control center, crew, collection of fare and non-fare revenue, maintenance of assets, human resources management, integrated transport, driverless trains, adoption of AI/ML/IoT, and predictive maintenance. The book is designed for transport professionals engaged in management of urban transportation services. It will also be very useful for students undertaking courses on Urban Transport and Railway Systems. KEY FEATURES • Innovative O&M practices based on real-life experiences—case studies and examples included • Emerging technologies in metro operations such as Driverless Operations, Artificial Intelligence, Internet of Things (IoT), and Predictive Maintenance • Excel program to estimate human resources required to operate the metro rail system commensurate with the facilities created • List of data and KPIs required to monitor the performance of a metro rail system TARGET AUDIENCE • Transport Professionals engaged in Metro and Railway Operations and Planning • Students undertaking courses on Urban Transport and Railway Systems

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rail is potentially a very efficient form of transport, but must be convenient, reliable and cost-effective to compete with road and air transport. Optimal control can be used to find energy-efficient driving strategies for trains. This book describes the train control problem and shows how a solution was found at the University of South Australia. This research was used to develop the Metromiser system, which provides energy-efficient driving advice on suburban trains. Since then, this work has been modified to find practical driving strategies for long-haul trains. The authors describe the history of the problem, reviewing the basic mathematical analysis and relevant techniques of constrained optimisation. They outline the modelling and solution of the problem and finally explain how the fuel consumption can be minimised for a journey, showing the effect of speed limits and track gradients on the optimal driving strategy.
