Identifying and understanding determinants of regional differences in light-rail patronage and performance
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract:] For the past three decades light-rail transit has been a key strategy for advancing sustainable mobilities in cities around the globe. International comparative studies, however, are few and infrequent, and the ... -
Impact on City Bus Transit Services of the COVID–19 Lockdown and Return to the New Normal: the Case of A Coruña (Spain)
(MDPI, 2020)[Abstract] The COVID–19 pandemic led to restrictions on activities and mobility in many parts of the world. After the main peak of the crisis, restrictions were gradually removed, returning to a new normal situation. This ... -
Increasing Boarding Lost Time at Regular Bus Stops during Rainy Conditions: A Case Study
(University of South Florida, 2021)[Abstract] Inclement weather conditions affect the behavior of travelers and transportation system operations. Understanding this influence can help improve operational planning schemes for any mode of transport, especially ... -
LRT urban insertion and safety: European experiences
(Sage, 2014)[Abstract:] This paper provides a rough design toolkit for improving the safety of LRT (Light Rail Transit) urban insertion. This toolkit has been prepared after the analysis of more than 130 examples of good and ... -
Overhead wires free light rail systems
(Sage, 2011)[Abstract:] Light rail systems are experiencing a revival in several countries in the world. Nevertheless, they are facing a more and more demanding market which implies continuous new evolutions and technologies. An ... -
La red de vía métrica en Galicia
(Universidad de Burgos, 2021)[Resumen:] La construcción de líneas ferroviarias en España a lo largo de la segunda mitad del siglo XIX sigue, en general, una configuración radial, uniendo Madrid con los principales puertos y centros urbanos de la costa ... -
Relación entre tiempos de operación de autobuses urbanos y tiempos de recorrido de tráfico general
(Universidad de Burgos, 2021)[Resumen:] El presente estudio tiene por objetivo comparar los tiempos de viaje en autobús con los tiempos de recorrido del tráfico general en A Coruña. Esta comparación permite, por una parte, determinar la relación ... -
Residential Location Econometric Choice Modeling With Irregular Zoning: Common Border Spatial Correlation Metric
(Springer Nature, 2020)[Abstract] Residential location choice (RLC) predicts where and how people choose their residential location in the framework of land use–transport interaction models (LUTI). This paper seeks an efficient RLC model in the ... -
Spatially Correlated Nested Logit Model for Spatial Location Choice
(Elsevier, 2022)[Abstract] Residential location choice is a key component of the models for predicting land-use and transport demand in urban planning. In general, it requires to consider correlation between spatial alternatives. The ... -
The Influence of Economic Barriers and Drivers on Energy Efficiency Investments in Maritime Shipping, From the Perspective of the Principal-Agent Problem
(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
(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
(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
(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
(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
(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
(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 ... -
Vía sin balasto
(M. R. Bugarín, 2002)[Resumen:] Sin modificar la solución básica de disponer los carriles sobre las traviesas que, a su vez, se asientan sobre una banqueta de balasto, mejoras en sus elementos han permitido que los vehículos se muevan a más ...
