  • How Does High-Speed Rail Affect Tourism? a Case Study of the Capital Region of China
    sustainability Article How Does High-Speed Rail Affect Tourism? A Case Study of the Capital Region of China Ping Yin 1,* , Francesca Pagliara 2 and Alan Wilson 3,4 1 Department of Tourism Management, School of Economics and Management, Beijing Jiaotong University, Beijing 100044, China 2 Department of Civil, Architectural and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, 80125 Naples, Italy; [email protected] 3 Special Projects, The Alan Turing Institute, London NW1 2DB, UK; [email protected] 4 The Ada Lovelace Institute, Nuffield Foundation, London WC1B 3JS, UK * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-10-516-84068 Received: 17 December 2018; Accepted: 10 January 2019; Published: 17 January 2019 Abstract: The objective of this study is to analyze the tourism spatial interaction that defines two scenarios, i.e., the actual one with the current high-speed rail (HSR) network, and the future one with an extension of the HSR network, considering as a case study the Capital region of China. The impact of HSR on the spatial distribution characteristics is investigated. The main outcome of this study is that the extension of the HSR network in the future scenario will significantly increase the total tourism spatial interaction and will reduce the spatial difference. What this paper adds to the current knowledge about HSR and tourism is that smaller cities, such as Tangshan, Zhangjiakou, and Chengde, connected via HSR to core cities will benefit the most from the HSR network’s operation. Those cities should take the HSR network as a development opportunity to enhance their attractiveness and strengthen their marketing to achieve sustainable tourism competitiveness.

  • Analysis of Ground Motion Due to Moving Surface Loads Induced by High-Speed Trains
    Analysis of ground motion due to moving surface loads induced by high-speed trains ∗ P. Galv´ın,J. Dom´ınguez Escuela Superior de Ingenieros, Universidad de Sevilla, Camino de los Descubrimientos s/n, 41092 Sevilla, Spain Abstract A three dimensional time domain boundary element approach for the analysis of soil vibrations induced by high-speed moving loads is presented in this paper. An attenuation law is included in the formulation. By doing so, internal material dam- ping can be taken into account. The characteristics of the BE model required for the study of travelling load problems are analyzed. Thus, mesh size, type of ele- ments, internal damping representation, and the complete numerical approach are validated. Existing analytical solutions for some simple problems are used as a re- ference. Experimental results measured in a simple soil dynamic load problem are also accurately reproduced by the proposed model. The analysis of the type of BE mesh required for a good representation of high-speed train effects is carried out using different discretizations under the sleepers and the free field near the track. All these analyses allow to define a model very well suited for the study of soil vibration effects due to high-speed train passage. Vibrations produced by an Alstom (Thalys- AVE) train travelling at 256 km/h and 300 km/h speed are evaluated at different locations near the track. Results show that the proposed numerical procedure and attenuation law allow for a realistic representation of the effects of the different passing loads. The BE approach presented in this paper can be used for actual analyses of high-speed trains induced vibrations.

  • TGV Communicant Research Program": from Research to Industrialisation of Onboard Broadband Internet Services for High-Speed Trains
    "TGV Communicant Research Program": from research to industrialisation of onboard broadband Internet services for high-speed trains D. Sanz1, P. Pasquet1, P. Mercier1, B. Villeforceix2, D. Duchange2 1 SNCF, Paris, France; 2 Orange Lab, Issy Les Moulineaux, France Abstract This paper presents the work carried out by SNCF between 2005 and 2007 in order to validate two different and complementary technologies for the implementation of train-ground broadband communications able to deliver onboard Internet services to high speed trains passengers: satellite technologies and WiFi. Firstly, the previous SNCF work in that domain is introduced. Secondly, the experimented satellite technologies are presented, as well as their advantages and drawbacks. Then, the WiFi trials carried out with Orange Lab are presented in detail. Finally, the “Connexion TGV” Project, one of the first industrialization of this kind of systems in the World, is introduced. Introduction Within the last years, SNCF has carried out some research projects in the domain of train- ground broadband communications within the framework of its "TGV Communicant Research Program" (TGV is the acronym for “Train a Grande Vitesse”, the French high speed trains, which operation speed is 300 km/h, 320 km/h in the case of TGV Est European high speed line going from Paris to Strasbourg). The objective of this program is to find solutions in order to deliver Internet connectivity services to passengers, but also to connect the crew and the train itself (machine-to-machine applications). Some of the results of the program were already presented at WCRR 2006 in Montréal in [1]. This introduction aims to remember this previous work.
