Northeast Corridor Improvement Project Electrification - New Haven, CT to Boston, MA: Final Environmental Impact Report, Supplement
This document is a supplement to the final environmental impact report (FEIR) published in October 1994 on the proposal by the National Railroad Passenger Corporation (Amtrak) to complete the electrification of the Northeast Corridor main line by extending electrification from New Haven, CT to...Modeling and Simulation of a Superconducting EMS-Type Maglev Vehicle/Guideway System
Computer simulation models are developed for predicting the dynamic performance of a magnetically levitated (maglev) vehicle with a superconducting (SC) electromagnetic suspension (EMS) traversing a flexible, multiple span, elevated guideway. A single Degree Of Freedom (DOF) vehicle model...High Productivity Integral Train Program - Iron Highway Phase II Evaluation
Evaluation tests of Iron Highway Phase II prototype show that the technical benefits predicted from the integral train design are attainable. The tests prove that the control and braking, loading and unloading, split ramp and platform suspension systems are ready to be engineered into production...
Investigation of the Deleterious Effects of Electro-Magnetic Fields on Steel Rebar Used in Guideways for EDS Maglev Systems: Volume I, Summary
[From the Introduction] This report summarizes work done on an FRA contract to study the important interactions of magnetic fields with rebars. The work was done as 5 distinct tasks: Task 1 — Perform Magnetic Field Analysis; Task 2 — Conduct Literature Search; Task 3 — Characterize Interactions/...
