Accessibility impacts of high-speed rail [PDF]
Journal 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 ...

Electrodynamic braking in high‐speed rail transport
Transport, 2007 The paper considers electrodynamic braking of trains, which is of particular importance for high‐speed railway transport from theoretical and technical perspectives. Braking methods used for high‐speed trains should ensure compatibility and redundancy of

Multiscale effects caused by the fracturing and fragmentation of rock blocks during rock mass movement: implications for rock avalanche propagation [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 The fracturing and fragmentation of rock blocks are important phenomena that occur ubiquitously during the propagation of rock avalanches. Here, the movement of a rectangular rock block characterized by different joint sets along an upper sloped and ...

High-speed rail transport valuation [PDF]
The European Journal of Finance, 2010 The present paper investigates the optimal timing of investment for a high speed rail (HSR) project, in an uncertain environment, using a real options analysis (ROA) framework. It develops a continuous time framework with stochastic demand that allows for the determination of the optimal timing of investment and the value of the option to defer in the ...
