Description:The total amount of transport is growing fast in the global economy and one unavoidable effect of this is the adverse environmental impact. An eco-efficient transport system is therefore a prerequisite for the development towards a sustainable society.Railways and the train industry have an important role to play in this context and one of the core components here is the rolling stock. The developments of eco-efficient trains and train components is a complex task, requiring an immense amount of information and effective support tools. Addressing these issues is the aim of the RAVEL methodolgy and the underlying theme of this book.The book is the final report of the RAVEL project (RAil VEhicLe eco-efficient design), co-financed by the European Commission under the Industrial and Material Technologies Programme. The project was carried out between November 1998 and October 2001 by a team from Bombardier Transportation (co-ordinator), ABB Corporate Research, Chalmers University of Technology, The Danish Railways (DSB), Gesellschaft für Entwicklungsberatung und Produktrecyclung mbH (GEP), Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, The Swedish Railways (SJ AB) and Woodville Polymer EngineeringWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
