    Abstract : The current global trade scenario has a large infrastructural gap, which limits the possibilities for physical distribution of goods among different countries or continents. The ‘Belt and Road Initiative’ will be used to close this gap. Tetra Pak being global organisation would like to explore the possibilities of using rail transport in BRI. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modeling fault probability in single railroad turnouts in Eastern Region, Sweden, with the use of logistic regression models : A step from preventive to predictive preventive maintenance in railway maintenance planning

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Filipp Zarov; [2019]
    Keywords : maintenance planning; railway turnouts; malfunction probability modeling; object-oriented databases; logistic regression models; underhållsplanering; spårväxlar; felsannolikhet modellering; objektorienterad databas; logistiska regressionsmodeller;

    Abstract : Turnouts are an important part of railway infrastructure for two reasons: infrastructure andmaintenance.

  5. 5. The metropolitan region Rhine-Neckar : A case study of cooperative federalism in the field of railroad infrastructur

    University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Institutionen för fysisk planering

    Author : Paul Edinger; [2017]
    Keywords : Spatial Planning; Regional Development; railroad infrastructure; cooperative federalism; metropolitan region Rhine-Neckar;

    Abstract : This Master Thesis gives an insight of railroad infrastructure at a regional level of European importance through a case-study within the Rhine-Neckar region in Germany. Administrative competences are hard to overcome from the planning point of view, consequently regions rely on informal planning tools to achieve a broader transnational and integrated transport strategy in Europe.
