12011. Pedestrian Level Crossing Safety On The East West Line Of Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit
In recent years, Railway level crossing (RLC) accidents is one of the major contributing factorsrnof railway related fatality problems in many countries. A fundamental requirement in pedestriansrnsafety planning is the isolation of level crossings along the railway. This is normally assisted...
12012. Suspension Damping Influence On Ride Comfort Of Passenger Rail Vehicle
This paper analyzes the secondary suspension damping influence of a passenger rail vehiclernupon the ride comfort, evaluated via the sterling ride comfort index. The selection of dampingrnratio is a sensitive issue when a too small damping may compromise the vehicle dynamicrnperformance, and a too...
12013. Evaluation Of Alternative Track Alignments On Whole Life Cost Of Lot 11 Section Of The Awash-weldiya Railway Line
Geometric design is an essential and major component in the design development of railway projects. Geometric alignments (horizontal and vertical) affect project cost and safety significantly keeping other factors constant. The effect of track alignment on cost of awash-weldiya railway project in...
12014. Development Of Material For The Overhead Contact Line Of The Addis Ababa Light Rail Transit (aa-lrt)
The purpose of this research is to develop a better material for the AA-LRT overhead contact line production. So with this in mind, the mechanical wear and corrosion resistance as well as the conductivity and hardness test of Cu-Ag and three other age-hardened copper alloys (Cu-Sn, Cu-Sn-Cr, and...

Coupler and draft gear package is the most important parts of heavy haul train .In my thesis basic consideration is the structural analysis and rotational behaviour effects of heavy haul train coupler and draft gear .The structural analysis of the coupler and draft gear was analyzed by ANSYS...
12016. Modeling And Structural Analysis Of Railway Vehicle Body With Finite Element Method
A train running along a track is one of the most complicated dynamic and static systems in engineering due to having various nature of contacting wheel and rail. The railway vehicle structures generally have the main components of shells, center sill, under frame, and beams, and behavior of these...
12017. Thermal Analysis Of Vented Disc And Optimization Of The Shape Of The Vented Curves In Aalrt
The disc brake is a device for slowing or stopping the rotation of a wheel. Braking of the vehicle leads to heat generation during each braking event. Transient thermal analysis of the Rotor Disc of Disk Brake is aimed at evaluating the performance of ventilated disc brake rotor of a rail vehicle...
