    • The Influence of Economic Barriers and Drivers on Energy Efficiency Investments in Maritime Shipping, From the Perspective of the Principal-Agent Problem 

      Longarela-Ares, Ángeles; Calvo-Silvosa, Anxo; Pérez-López, José-Benito (MDPI, 2020)
      [Abstract] Maritime transport stands out as a strategic sector; the increasing trend in maritime traffic makes it essential to reduce energy consumption and emissions through investment in energy efficiency. However, ...

    • The tram-train: a new public transport system 

      Novales, Margarita; Orro, Alfonso; Bugarín, M. R. (Sage, 2002)
      [Abstract:] In response to the demand for improved mobility in metropolitan areas, the 1990s saw the development in Europe of a new transport system known as the tram-train. This system is based on the use of conventional ...

    • Track geometry for light rail systems 

      Novales, Margarita; Orro, Alfonso; Bugarín, M. R. (Sage, 2010)
      [Abstract:] As it is known, light rail systems are characterized by their running over the streets, with semi-exclusive (or “reserved”) right of way. This fact leads to the necessity of adapting the track geometry to the ...

    • Transporte por cable 

      Orro, Alfonso; Novales, Margarita; Bugarín, M. R. (Universidade da Coruña, Grupo de Ferrocarriles y Transportes, 2003)
      [Resumen:] El transporte por cable es un instrumento adecuado, en ocasiones el único, para resolver determinadas necesidades de transporte. Se emplea principalmente para transportes en pequeñas distancias con desniveles ...

    • Tranvitrén y Tren-Tranvía. Hacia una mejora del aprovechamiento de las infraestructuras ferroviarias 

      Novales, Margarita (Colegio de Ingenieros de Caminos, Canales y Puertos., 2016-09)
      [Resumen] Este libro explica qué son los sistemas de tranvitrén y tren-tranvía, estableciendo sus principales ventajas, y planteando, de forma sucinta, los retos tecnológicos y de explotación que implica su implantación ...

    • Turf (grass) track for light rail systems 

      Novales, Margarita; Conles Barrera, Emilio José (Sage, 2012)
      [Abstract:] Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries in the world. In many of the new networks, as well as in refurbished ones, turf (grass) tracks are being used as a means to get a reserved right ...

    • Use of a Genetic Algorithm to Optimize Wheel Profile Geometry 

      Novales, Margarita; Orro, Alfonso; Bugarín, M. R. (Institution of Mechanical Engineers ; SAGE, 2007-07-01)
      [Abstract] Wear is a very important subject for Railway Administrations because it entails very important costs. So, it seems to be logical to develop a new methodology for designing wheel profiles in order to improve its ...
