Bridge Engineering
A bridge is a structure built to span the physical obstacles without closing the way underneath, such as a body of water, valley, or road, for the purpose of providing the passage over the obstacle. Bridge engineering is an engineering discipline branching from civil engineering that involves the planning, design, construction, operation, and maintenance of bridges to ensure safe and effective transportation of vehicles, people and goods. This book Bridge Engineering includes the main topics and the basic principles of bridge engineering and provides the full scope of current information necessary for effective and cost-conscious contemporary bridge. It reflects new engineering and building ...
High-Speed Rail
The rapid expansion of transportation industries worldwide, including railways, and the never-ending desire to reduce travel time have highlighted the need to resort to advanced transit systems. Conventional railway systems have been modified to make them travel at much higher speeds. High-Speed Rail includes the main topics and basic principles of high-speed railways (HSRs). The book reflects new engineering and track developments, the most current design methods, as well as the latest industry standards and policies. It provides a comprehensive overview of the significant characteristics for HSRs; highlights recent advancements, requirements, and improvements; and details the latest techni...

The Book of Unsay
The Book of Unsay is an experimental prose poetry book by Salim Ghazi Saeedi. Philosophical and idealistic in sermon-like tone with hermetic influences, the book is filled with denial outcries of word and reason - the consensus values.
Handbook of Research on Decision Sciences and Applications in the Transportation Sector
The advancements in decision sciences theory and applications can be regarded as a continuously emerging field in all areas of interest including technology, industry, energy, healthcare, education, agriculture, social sciences, and more. Managers in all disciplines face an endless list of complex issues every day. One of the essential managerial skills is the ability to allocate and utilize limited resources appropriately in the efforts of achieving optimal performance efficiently. This is no less important for those who work in the transportation sector. The Handbook of Research on Decision Sciences and Applications in the Transportation Sector explores the importance of decision sciences ...
International Conference on Mechanism Science and Control Engineering (MSCE 2014)
The aim of MSCE 2014 is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, and academicians, as well as industrial professionals, to present their research results and development activities in mechanism science and control engineering. It provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and application experiences, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration. MSCE2014 is conducted to all the researchers, engineers, industrial professionals and academicians, who are broadly welcomed to present their latest research results, academic developments or theory practice. Topics of interest include but are not limited to Mechanism theory and Application, Mechanical control and Automation Engineering, Mechanical Dynamics, Materials Processing and Control, Instruments and Vibration Control. It is of great pleasure to see the delegates exchanging ideas and establishing sound relationships on the conference.
Infrastructure Design, Signalling and Security in Railway
Railway transportation has become one of the main technological advances of our society. Since the first railway used to carry coal from a mine in Shropshire (England, 1600), a lot of efforts have been made to improve this transportation concept. One of its milestones was the invention and development of the steam locomotive, but commercial rail travels became practical two hundred years later. From these first attempts, railway infrastructures, signalling and security have evolved and become more complex than those performed in its earlier stages. This book will provide readers a comprehensive technical guide, covering these topics and presenting a brief overview of selected railway systems in the world. The objective of the book is to serve as a valuable reference for students, educators, scientists, faculty members, researchers, and engineers.
