Book Description
The rail-based transit system is a popular public transportation option, not just with members of the public but also with policy makers looking to install a form of convenient and rapid travel. Even for moving bulk freight long distances, a rail-based system is the most sustainable transportation system currently available. The Handbook of Research on Emerging Innovations in Rail Transportation Engineering presents the latest research on next-generation public transportation infrastructures. Emphasizing a diverse set of topics related to rail-based transportation such as funding issues, policy design, traffic planning and forecasting, and engineering solutions, this comprehensive publication is an essential resource for transportation planners, engineers, policymakers, and graduate-level engineering students interested in uncovering research-based solutions, recommendations, and examples of modern rail transportation systems.

Book Description
The ventilation system is an important element for the safety of a tunnel, as well as its investment and operating costs. Investors, operators and designers of road tunnels bear a responsibility for the safety of persons, as well as for important investment decisions. The new Road Tunnel Ventilation Compendium fosters understanding of basic aspects of ventilation in the context of tunnel safety, describes the actual state of the art and shows how to design and realise safer tunnels, at lower costs, with reliably functioning systems.

Handbook of Alkali-Activated Cements, Mortars and Concretes
Author: F. Pacheco-TorgalPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 1782422889
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 855
Book Description
This book provides an updated state-of-the-art review on new developments in alkali-activation. The main binder of concrete, Portland cement, represents almost 80% of the total CO2 emissions of concrete which are about 6 to 7% of the Planet's total CO2 emissions. This is particularly serious in the current context of climate change and it could get even worse because the demand for Portland cement is expected to increase by almost 200% by 2050 from 2010 levels, reaching 6000 million tons/year. Alkali-activated binders represent an alternative to Portland cement having higher durability and a lower CO2 footprint. - Reviews the chemistry, mix design, manufacture and properties of alkali-activated cement-based concrete binders - Considers performance in adverse environmental conditions. - Offers equal emphasis on the science behind the technology and its use in civil engineering.
