  1. 1. Access management for road hauliers and rail operators in intermodal freight terminals

    Författare :Stefan Jacobsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; rail operators; turnaround times; intermodal freight transport; information exchange; road hauliers; information services; intermodal freight terminals; Access management;

    Sammanfattning : A pivotal element in the transport industry, intermodal freight transport, is rather complex due to the numerous transport modes and actors involved. Terminal operators in intermodal freight transport face major challenges to provide seamless flows of containers via their terminals. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Safety at Rail-Road Level Crossings

    Författare :Mohammad Shahriari; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; driver behaviour; risk analysis; traffic safety; rail road crossings; safety;

    Sammanfattning : Safety related to traffic at rail/road level crossings has long been a major issue for rail operators all over the world. Eliminating these level crossings entirely would be a desirable solution. However converting them into separate types is very expensive and not reasonable in many cases, e.g. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Collaborative Tracking and Tracing – A Supply Chain Perspective

    Författare :Vahid Mirza Beiki; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; logistics; wagon; rail; design.; supply chain; entities; collaborative; food; tracking and tracing T T ; actors;

    Sammanfattning : The purpose of this thesis is to explore tracking and tracing (T&T) systems to develop the concept of “collaborative tracking and tracing” for the management of logistics operations.The thesis is based on extensive literature reviews, and four major empirical studies, including one structured interview study, one documentation review study, case studies of two Swedish fresh-fish supply chains (SCs) and a case study of the Volvo cars body components (VCBC) SC.

  5. 4. A study of the rail degradation process to predict rail breaks

    Författare :Saurabh Kumar; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : Rail infrastructure is a large and costly investment, and has a long life. To realize the benefits from this investment, effective maintenance is required. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Effects of top-of-rail friction modifiers on the friction, wear and cracks of railway rails

    Författare :Saad Ahmed Khan; Jan Lundberg; Rolf Dollevoet; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Drift och underhållsteknik; Operation and Maintenance;

    Sammanfattning : The railway is an economical and environmentally friendly mode of transport for long distances and heavy loads. The demands on the operators are increasing with increased competition in the market, and therefore they are currently demanding more track capacity. In the short term, the existing network is expected to deliver the increased capacity. LÄS MER
