Potentials of Light Rail Transit in Nigeria
, 2016 The inadequacy of road transport to cope effectively with the movement of passengers in Nigeria cannot be overemphasised as this has implications on the economy. Rail transport plays a key role in the socio-economic development of nations. However, the non-functioning of the railway system due to neglect over the years further compounded the problem ...

Electric and hydrogen rail: Potential contribution to net zero in the UK
Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020 Electric trains (ET) and hydrogen trains (HT) are considered zero emission at the point of use. True emissions are dependent upon non-tailpipe sources, primarily in energy production. We present UK carbon dioxide (CO) operating emission model outputs for conventionally fuelled trains (CFT), ETs and HTs between 2017 and 2050 under four National Grid ...

PPO‐Based Reinforcement Learning for the Semi‐Active Vibration Control of MDOF Platform
AI &Innovation, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aiming at the coupled vibration problem of a multi‐degree‐of‐freedom (MDOF) vibration isolation platform under eccentric excitation, this paper proposes a semi‐active vibration control strategy based on Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) ‐based reinforcement learning (PPO RL).

Stakeholder Perspectives on Therapeutic and Safe Building Design in Residential Care
Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Residential care is a form of out‐of‐home care that plays a critical role in supporting vulnerable young people in Australia. However, there is an evidence gap regarding the built environment in this context. This research aimed to explore the perspectives of key stakeholders in residential care in Victoria, Australia, regarding design that ...

IET Electrical Systems in TransportationRail potential (RP) has become a disaster for the safe operation of metro lines. In urban rail transit (URT), regional insulation degradation often occurs due to the harsh environment of the reflux conductor for traction current, leading to the complex distribution of RP. In this paper, the dynamic distribution of RP with regional insulation alteration
