High Speed Rail Station Distric Using Entropy Model Study to Estimate the Trip Distribution

Study on different solutions to reduce the dynamic impacts in transition zones for high-speed rail

One of the most important factors influencing the track maintenance is the transitions between parts of the track with different vertical stiffness. The dynamic...

When to invest in high speed rail

Powering the world’s high-speed rail networks

Today, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain, the United Kingdom, China, Japan, Korea and Taiwan all have high-speed lines in operation. Many other countries, including Brazil, India, Morocco, Russia, Saudi Arabia and the United States, either have high-speed rail systems under construction or under development. Within the next few years, the world’s high-speed rail network co...

The Portuguese High Speed Rail Network

This paper describes the implementation of the Portuguese High Speed Rail (HSR) Network. The business model developed by RAVE for the PPP's related with the HSR infrastructure is described and discussed. Following a recently awarded research project (EXPRESS) aimed at studying the strategic aspects related with the implementation of HSR is presented and its aspects more directly related with HS...
