Automated, Faster and Greener Transport Systems

Analysis and Modelling Performances

Beschreibung

The book provides a comprehensive analysis and evaluates the performances of existing and future transport systems. The evaluation is mainly measured by the level of automation, operating speed, and greening effect. The book reviews road-based automated and electric cars, rail-based HSR (High-Speed Rail) and Maglev, air-based UAM (Urban Air Mobility) and supersonic LH2 (Liquid Hydrogen) powered 2 SCAT (Supersonic Commercial Air Transport) and evacuated - HYP (Hyperloop) and submerged ETT (Evacuated Tube Transport) systems. Infrastructural, technical, operational, economic, environmental, social, and policy performances are analysed, and the analytical models of indicators have been developed. The models of indicators are applied using inputs from real-life and hypothetical "what-if" scenario-based cases, respecting the preferences of the main stakeholders involved such as drivers, passengers, transport operators, policymakers, and local, regional, national, and global communities. A SWOT analysis is applied to the qualitative evaluation of these systems, indicating their potential advantages and disadvantages for the stakeholders involved.
