Accessibility impacts of high-speed rail [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Transport Geography, 2012
Most high-speed rail (HSR) networks being proposed in the United States will be in a hub-and-spoke pattern. This article discusses some of the disadvantages of this system, and questions the need for a high-speed rail system at all. While a hub-and-spoke architecture benefits the hub city and offers economies of density in track usage, it is less ...

High speed rail

Journal of Transport Geography, 2012
This article is one in a series of viewpoints discussing the potential benefits and drawbacks of high speed rail (HSR) in the United States. In this article, the author discusses the difference in HSR in Europe compared to HSR plans in United States. In most of Europe, distances between major population centers are relatively short.

A High Speed CMOS Transmitter and Rail-to-Rail Receiver

4th IEEE International Symposium on Electronic Design, Test and Applications (delta 2008), 2008
This paper presents a high speed low voltage differential signal (LVDS) interface circuit for CPU, LCD, FPGA and other fast links. In the proposed transmitter a stable reference and a common mode feedback circuit are applied into the LVDS drivers, which enable the transmitter to tolerate the variations of process, temperature and supply voltage.

Competitiveness of High-Speed Rail

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2013
This research study had two main objectives: (a) to examine the potential of high-speed rail (HSR) to compete against other transport modes currently operating between Lisbon, Portugal, and Madrid, Spain, and (b) to analyze the capacity of intermodal solutions that incorporate HSR to compete with other transport modes when included in air transport ...

High-Speed Rail—Coming to America?

NEW SOLUTIONS: A Journal of Environmental and Occupational Health Policy, 2009
The United States lags many parts of the world when it comes to high-speed rail. But investing in high-speed rail could help us through current problems. Funds—$8 billion—in the economic stimulus package passed by Congress are designated for high-speed rail. Other funds in the pipeline total approximately $15.5 billion.
