Reciprocating Expander for an Exhaust Heat Recovery Rankine Cycle for a Passenger Car Application [PDF]

Energies, 2012
Nowadays, on average, two thirds of the fuel energy consumed by an engine is wasted through the exhaust gases and the cooling liquid. The recovery of this energy would enable a substantial reduction in fuel consumption.

Aircraft and passenger recovery during an aircraft’s unexpected unavailability [PDF]

Journal of Air Transport Management, 2021
Abstract Airlines design their initial schedules under the assumption that all resources will be available on time and flights will operate as planned. However, some disruptions occur due to mechanical failures and unexpected delays of maintenance, making the aircraft unavailable for a certain period of time.

Rail disruption: passenger focused recovery [PDF]

WIT Transactions on The Built Environment, 2012
In a suburban passenger railway network, a delay of a single train is likely to affect not only the passengers aboard or waiting for that train, but those on subsequent trains as well. These knock-on effects are caused by the delayed train blocking sections of track and lead to congestion and slower boarding rate on overcrowded trains. When a delay has
