2. 1. Evaluation and Modelling of Short Haul Intermodal Transport Systems

   Author : Behzad Kordnejad; Sebastian Stichel; Bo-Lennart Nelldal; Sebastiaan Meijer; Johan Woxenius; KTH; []
   Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Transportvetenskap; Transport Science;

   Abstract : Conventional intermodal rail freight transport systems have proved themselves competitive and able to offer cost-leadership on long distances and in endpoint relations between two nodes. Several studies within intermodal transports have made contributions in finding the minimum distance, the “break-even” distance that an intermodal door-to-door shipment can compete with unimodal road.

4. 2. Regional Intermodal Transport Systems : Analysis and Case Study in the Stockholm-Mälaren Region

   Author : Behzad Kordnejad; Bo-Lennart Nelldal; Rickard Bergqvist; KTH; []
   Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik; Järnvägsgruppen - Effektiva tågsystem för godstrafik;

   Abstract : The global trend of urbanization is evident and also valid in Sweden and for the Stockholm-Mälaren region, also referred to as the Mälaren valley, a region consisting of metropolitan Stockholm and areas around the lake of Mälaren. In this context, efficient urban freight transportation has emerged as essential for sustainable development of urban areas. READ MORE

   Abstract : The demand for road and rail freight transport continues to grow with the expanding economy, while the climate crisis requires reduction in greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, tools and solutions for reducing fossil fuel use and enabling more efficient use of infrastructure are needed. READ MORE

6. 4. Applying Data Analytics to Freight Train Delays in Shunting Yards

   Author : Niloofar Minbashi; Markus Bohlin; Behzad Kordnejad; Carl-William Palmqvist; C. Tyler Dick; KTH; []

   Abstract : The European Commission has foreseen a modal share of 30% by 2030 for rail freight transport. To achieve this increase in the modal share, enhanced reliability of rail freight services is required. Optimal functioning of shunting yards is one of the areas that can improve this reliability.

7. 5. Evaluation of Train Driving with Lineside ATPand ERTMS Signaling

   Author : Tomas Rosberg; Markus Bohlin; Birgitta Thorslund; Behzad Kordnejad; Ziemke Tom; KTH; []
   Keywords : ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; Transportsystem; Transport Systems;

   Abstract : From many perspectives there is a need to understand more of how capacity, signal systems, anddriving behavior interact, and naturally since ERTMS is in its early stage, some areas are stillunexplored. The number of retrofitted ERTMS lines and new designed ERTMS lines are increasing inEurope, which implies extra focus on the capacity optimization in the network planning process. READ MORE
