ABSTRACT As a burgeoning literature on high-speed rail development indicates, good station-area planning is a very important prerequisite for the eventual successful operation of a high-speed rail station; it can also trigger opportunities for economic development in the station area and the station-city. At the same time, “on the ground” experiences from international examples of high-speed rail stations can provide valuable lessons for the California high-speed rail system in general, and the San Jose Diridon station in particular.

  • Real-Time Estimation of Some Physical Parameters of Trams Relevant for Onboard Prediction of Braking Distance
    CZECH TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY IN PRAGUE Faculty of Electrical Engineering Department of Control Engineering Real-time estimation of some physical parameters of trams relevant for onboard prediction of braking distance Master’s thesis Bc. Petr Hrych Supervisor doc. Ing. Zdeněk Hurák, Ph.D. 2020 MASTER‘S THESIS ASSIGNMENT I. Personal and study details Student's name: Hrych Petr Personal ID number: 457434 Faculty / Institute: Faculty of Electrical Engineering Department / Institute: Department of Control Engineering Study program: Cybernetics and Robotics Branch of study: Cybernetics and Robotics II. Master’s thesis details Master’s thesis title in English: Real-time estimation of some physical parameters of trams relevant for onboard prediction of braking distance Master’s thesis title in Czech: Odhadování vybraných fyzikálních parametrů tramvaje v reálném čase relevantních pro palubní predikci zábrzdné dráhy Guidelines: The goal of the project is to enhance the existing onboard algorithms for prediction of tram braking distance with a capability to update the estimates of some relevant physical parameters in real time. In particular, accurate estimates of the mass of the tram (given by the number of passengers), the railway track gradient (with some initial estimate obtained from a map) and the adhesion coefficient (accounting for slippery rails due to snow, ice, morning dew or leaves) need to be available to the onboard predictor of braking distance. Nonetheless, critical discussion of the very assignment is expected in the thesis. Namely, the mass of payload of the tram might be available to the onboard computer and the slope of the track might be measured once and for all and encoded in a map or a lookup table (hence no need to estimate it onboard).

  • Adnane El Wajgali Research Paper Sports Redefined: the Importance of Sponsors in Shaping the Modern Image of Sport Supervised By
    Adnane El Wajgali Research paper Sports redefined: The importance of sponsors in shaping the modern image of sport Supervised by: Dr. Pierre Lévy Evaluated by: Dr. Daniel Paré Department of Communication © Adnane El Wajgali, Ottawa, Canada, 2017. Abstract Sports hold an important place in every society and are consumed in a wide variety of ways. They inclusively carry noble values and contribute improving social cohesion. Sports today are considered as one of the main sources of entertainment and major sports events attract sponsors ready to offer colossal contracts for more exposure. Powerful brands inject billions of dollars in the sports industry every year and in return want to be seen, heard and liked. They are influential in different ways and might even be changing the way we look at sport. The objective of this paper is to study the ways in which sponsoring, precisely kit deals and stadium naming rights can influence the image of football. Keywords: sports; sponsorship; club culture; football; kits; naming rights 1 Acknowledgements I would like to thank both of my professors Pierre Lévy and Daniel Paré for their guidance and their precious feedback. I would also like to thank Agnieszka Szczotka, librarian at the University of Ottawa, for sharing valuable tips and advice about research, collection and synthesis of literature. Thank you also to all the people who contributed directly or indirectly to the completion of this project. 2 Table of contents Introduction……………………………………………………………………………………….4 Objective…………………………………………………………………………………………..7 Research design and methodology………………………………………………………………...8 Literature review…………………………………………………………………………………10 - Sport-sponsorship Tandem………………………………………………………………10 1.
