Universal Axle Counter for Railyway Signalling

This massively improves the timing and trains were always on the right tracks following their schedule.

track structure is supported by wooden or steel beams However, since the track and support

In this Assignment I will demonstrate different connector installations and there usage. I will describe the assembling process and any issues if ran into, along with ways to prevent the same problems from turning up in the future.

Test completation of circuits in electrical wiring, equipment and fixtures, using testing devices and ensure compatibility and safety of system

What type of cable is necessary for each connection in Figure 4- 2: straight or crossover? You can assume that S1 and S2 do not have the ability to resolve crossovers ( called Auto- MDIX). Use your textbook and Internet research to compose your answer.

(i) There is no shared platform for different train services in the URT corridor. A platform can only accommodate one train at a time and no overtaking can occur at any point of the line.

Safety inventions such as the automatic coupler, block and signal system and

Wind, or even the friction between the wheel and the tracks cause the train to slow in speed. This explains why the hills normally at the end of the ride are lower because there is less energy.

Gauging- This is a tool used in petroleum (petrol) industry, also mining also archeology purpose. It consists of radiation which emits a cloud of particles and a sensor that counts received particles that are reflected by the test material or pass through the middle of it.

The construction and designing of this extended Meto Line were predicted to cost (baseline cost) of $755 million. This cost estimation includes the purchasing property and new LRVs. Sponsors of the NAIT LRT project were the Government of Alberta, the Government of Canada and City of Edmonton. The baseline schedule and milestones of this project are mentioned in the appendix of this paper. Thales Computer –Based Train Control system are responsible for operating the NAIT LRT. While construction on the $665 million (expected cost was $755 million) project was completed on schedule, there have been issues incorporating the new Communication-Based Train Control system with the current LRT signalling system. Mario Peloquin, Vice President, Thales Rail Signalling Solutions Inc. says he appreciates everyone’s patience as crews work to complete the work. The current signalling system is one of the reasons for the delay of this project.

Maglevs are safer than our modern transportation methods, such as airplanes and highways vehicles. Comparing it to the conventional trains, the elevated tracks remove the risk of collision with automobiles and other vehicles. The speed and distance between Maglev vehicles on a guide way are all automatically controlled and maintained by the frequency of the electric power fed to the guide

Moreover, provides high level of safety and comfortable traveling felling for the Maglev Train passengers. Furthermore, it need to provide reliable, advanced, useful technology base for the future (Vuchic and Casello, 2002).

Aviamotornaya is a metro station situated in Moscow, Russia. On February 17, 1982, only three years after the opening of the station, an escalator caused a significant disaster that killed 8 people and injured at least 30. It is said to be the largest escalator accident to date. This report is going to assess the causation of the disaster, looking at the human and mechanical faults. It will then discuss how regulations attempt to minimise occurrences such as this, before discussing how Soviet secrecy has influenced aftermath, and the consequential impact on engineering development.
