  • Thales SEC Transport Awarded New Signalling Contract for Zhengzhou Metro Line 6
    Press Release 14 August, 2020 Beijing China Thales SEC Transport Awarded New Signalling Contract for Zhengzhou Metro Line 6 Thales SEC Transport (TST, Thales’ JV in China) will provide its innovative TSTCBTC ®2.0 signalling system for the Zhengzhou Metro Line 6 Phase 1 project, which aims to achieve zero interruptions to operations by creating a high level of redundancy and availability. TSTCBTC ®2.0 signalling system has already been deployed on the Shanghai Metro Line 5 and Line 14 projects. The Zhengzhou Line 6 Phase 1 project is one of the key projects in the city’s urban rail transit construction, which will significantly enhance the urban mobility. The line runs from Jiayu Town station to Xiaoying station, with a total operational length of 39.2 km (2.8 km elevated, 36.4 km underground), crossing through 26 stations (one elevated and 25 underground), and including nine interchange stations. As the first signalling project that TST was awarded in Zhengzhou, it represents TST’s business footprint expanding to 15 cities within China’s mainland. The newly awarded contract demonstrates that this TST self-developed technology is not only recognized by Shanghai’s market, but also by a wider Chinese market, indicating the great success of Thales’ strategy to localize research and development through the joint venture.

  • Alternatives for Freight-Rail Expansion to Reduce Seasonal Passenger-Rail Demand by Lingling Li
    Balancing China’s Seasonal Intercity Travel Demand: Alternatives for Freight-Rail Expansion to Reduce Seasonal Passenger-Rail Demand By Lingling Li Submitted to the Urban Planning program, and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Urban Planning. ________________________________ Anne Dunning, Ph.D., Chair ________________________________ Bonnie Johnson, Ph.D. ________________________________ Thomas E. Mulinazzi, Ph.D. Date Defended: November 25, 2013 ii The Thesis Committee for Lingling Li certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Balancing China’s Seasonal Intercity Travel Demand: Alternatives for Freight-Rail Expansion to Reduce Seasonal Passenger-Rail Demand ________________________________ Chairperson Anne Dunning Date approved: November 25, 2013 iii Abstract Since 2010, China’s annual domestic holiday travel for the 20-day season surrounding Spring Festival (a.k.a. Chinese New Year) has exceeded 200 million trips (China Transportation and Communication Yearbook). The demand surges have overwhelmed intercity transportation systems, particularly passenger rail. This transportation problem has emerged due to spatial economic imbalance: workers have had to travel between their homes in rural hinterlands to factory jobs on the industrial coast, which had grown into a migratory population of 261,390,000 by 2010 (National Bureau of Statistics of China). The objectives of this research were: to examine spatial relationships among factories, raw materials, markets, workers, and rail connections; and, to identify how development of China’s freight-rail industry can or will influence the Spring Festival travel season. Spatial analysis using geographic information systems (GIS), statistical hypothesis testing, and economic analysis including location quotients were conducted to examine spatial relationships among markets, factories, raw materials, workers, and rail connections.

  • Stability Analysis of Cross-Channel Excavation for Existing Anchor Removal Project in Subway Construction
    Copyright © 2017Tech Science Press CMES, vol.113, no.1, pp.57-69, 2017 Stability Analysis of Cross-channel Excavation for Existing Anchor Removal Project in Subway Construction Li Bin1,2,3, Fang Hongyuan1,2,3*, He Wei4, Sun Bin1 Abstract: The cutter head will be stuck when the shield machine pass through the area existing anchor left by foundation construction of surrounding high-rise building. Subsurface excavation method is an efficient way to remove the existed anchor. In this paper, a three-dimensional finite element model is developed to study stability of cross-channel excavation. The time-spatial effects of arch crown settlement, intrados uplift and side wall horizontal convergence are analyzed according to different excavation size, lining thickness and lining order. The results show that the excavation size is the main factor to control the deformation of the surrounding soil, especially in arch crown settlement; The influence of lining thickness on the spatial effect of surrounding soil deformation is obvious when the excavation size is large, but little on the time effect; The influence of the lining order on the deformation of the surrounding soil is obvious, in particular, the larger the excavation size, the more obvious advantages of the lining order. Finally, based on the time-spatial effects comparison of nine excavation schemes of the cross-channel, an optimum excavation scheme is adopted in the actual project. Keywords: Existed anchor, removal project, ABAQUS, cross-channel excavation, time-spatial effect. 1 Introduction With the development of urbanization in China, the urban population density increases rapidly. The traffic congestion, limited land resources have become the serious problems of urban development.
