| Summary, etc. |
"Transportation engineering is the implementation of scientific principles and technological ideas to functional layout, planning, management, and operation of different facilities for any medium of transportation in an effort to offer secure, efficient, rapid, convenient, comparatively cheap, and environmentally well-suited motion of humans and goods. The planning facets of transportation engineering are associated with the components of urban planning and focus on political factors and technical forecasting decisions. Technical estimation of the passengers' journeys usually requires urban models of transportation planning. These models require the forecasting of trip distribution (which involves destination choice). trip generation (number of trips), route assignment (the routes or street being used) and mode choice (mode being taken). Passenger trips are performance indicators of a transportation system because they show the demand peak on any transport system. This book is divided into three main parts. There are eight chapters in the book. The first two chapters focus on the fundamentals and general principles of transportation engineering. The following three chapters focus on Railway engineering while the last three chapters of the book focus on airport engineering.<br/>Chapter 1 of the book introduces the readers with the fundamentals of transport engineering. Particular emphasis is given on different transportation systems, transportation disciplines, and geography of transport networks. Chapter 2 focuses on the basics of traffic and transport systems. Different modes of transport including land-transport, waterways, and airways are comprehensively discussed in the chapter. Railway transport is the backbone of transportation systems. A country cannot develop its infrastructure without upgrading its railway transportation. Presently, most of the developed countries have developed updated railway transportation systems. Chapter 3 introduces the readers with the fundamentals of railway engineering. Basic components of railway transport are briefly discussed in the chapter. Chapter 4 focuses on the developments in railway transport over the years while Chapter 5 discusses the future trends and challenges in railway transport. Airport transportation and airport engineering are key areas of modern infrastructure developments. Chapter 6 offers a comprehensive overview of the airport planning and design. Different components of airport engineering are discussed in the chapter. Chapter 7 introduces the readers with modern cybersecurity principles and techniques for airport security systems. Finally, chapter 8 discusses the future of airport engineering. The concept of smart airport transportation is summarized in the chapter.<br/>This book is particularly useful for students of civil engineering and transport engineering. However, students and professionals from automotive engineering, mechanical engineering, and aerospace engineering can also benefit from this multidisciplinary book"-- Back cover. |
