Pritchard Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Engineering June 2015 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF ENGINEERING AND THE ENVIRONMENT Transportation Research Group Doctor of Engineering INVESTIGATING THE ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY OF RAIL TRAVEL IN COMPARISON WITH OTHER MODES by James A. Pritchard iv Sustainability is a broad concept which embodies social, economic and environmental concerns, including the possible consequences of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and climate change, and related means of mitigation and adaptation. The reduction of energy consumption and emissions are key objectives which need to be achieved if some of these concerns are to be addressed.

    BATTERY-DRIVEN BOMBARDIER ELECTROSTAR Electrical Multiple Unit

    Transportudvalget 2014-15 TRU Alm.del endeligt svar på spørgsmål 397 Offentligt UNITED KINGDOM BATTERY-DRIVEN BOMBARDIER ELECTROSTAR Electrical multiple unit ELECTROSTAR electrical multiple unit in operation on British railways ALTERNATIVE DRIVE CONCEPTS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL FRIENDLINESS The first battery-powered train to run on UK’s rail network in more than half a century began passenger service in January 2015, marking a game-changing development in the field of eco-friendly public transportation viability. Battery-powered trains will offer a real alternative in areas where diesel or electrified rail services are not suitable; for example, in rural areas where there are gaps in the overhead wire system and where diesel normally would have to be implemented. PROPULSION & CONTROLS A NEW PROPULSION CONCEPT The project is part of a research program, funded by Network Rail (NR). Bombardier received this refurbishment order in competition with other train suppliers and could provide a solution with a short time-frame – seven months design phase – by modifying an existing Class 379 train leased from Abellio Greater Anglia. The target is to operate a 185 tons four-car BOMBARDIER* ELECTROSTAR* train on battery up to 120 km/h for a distance of up to 50 km, which requires battery capacity in the range of up to 500 kWh. The design solution charges the batteries with the existing line converter equipment Batteries and assembly in one of six rafts and connects the motor converters to the batteries when the 25 kVAC overhead line is not available. The lithium-ion batteries weigh less and can charge THE PROJECT SETUP more quickly than industrial-form batteries, such The retrofittedELECTROSTAR train was modified at as those used in automobiles.

  • The Treachery of Strategic Decisions

    The Treachery of Strategic Decisions

    The treachery of strategic decisions. An Actor-Network Theory perspective on the strategic decisions that produce new trains in the UK. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Liverpool for the degree of Doctor in Philosophy by Michael John King. May 2021 Abstract The production of new passenger trains can be characterised as a strategic decision, followed by a manufacturing stage. Typically, competing proposals are developed and refined, often over several years, until one emerges as the winner. The winning proposition will be manufactured and delivered into service some years later to carry passengers for 30 years or more. However, there is a problem: evidence shows UK passenger trains getting heavier over time. Heavy trains increase fuel consumption and emissions, increase track damage and maintenance costs, and these impacts could last for the train’s life and beyond. To address global challenges, like climate change, strategic decisions that produce outcomes like this need to be understood and improved. To understand this phenomenon, I apply Actor-Network Theory (ANT) to Strategic Decision-Making. Using ANT, sometimes described as the sociology of translation, I theorise that different propositions of trains are articulated until one, typically, is selected as the winner to be translated and become a realised train. In this translation process I focus upon the development and articulation of propositions up to the point where a winner is selected. I propose that this occurs within a valuable ‘place’ that I describe as a ‘decision-laboratory’ – a site of active development where various actors can interact, experiment, model, measure, and speculate about the desired new trains.

    LATE MESOLITHIC and BEAKER ASSEMBLAGES from EXCAVATIONS at LOUGHBOROUGH ROAD, ASFORDBY Wayne Jarvis

    LATE MESOLITHIC AND BEAKER ASSEMBLAGES FROM EXCAVATIONS AT LOUGHBOROUGH ROAD, ASFORDBY Wayne Jarvis with contributions from: Matthew Beamish, Lynden Cooper, Nicholas J. Cooper, Angela Monckton, Harriet Anne Jacklin, Göran Possnert and Ingela Sundström Between 2009 and 2011, archaeological excavations were carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on a site at Loughborough Road, Asfordby, Leicestershire (SK 701 192), which revealed traces of activity dating to the Mesolithic, Late Neolithic–Early Bronze Age and Iron Age periods. The work was carried out on behalf of Jelson Ltd, in advance of and during residential development of the site. This report highlights evidence of Late Neolithic–Early Bronze Age occupation which yielded a significant assemblage of worked flint, and the largest assemblage of Beaker pottery found so far in Leicestershire, and of earlier occupation in the form of a Late Mesolithic lithic assemblage preserved in a tree throw hole. The site archive will be held with Leicestershire County Council, under the accession number X.A124. 2008. INTRODUCTION During excavations carried out in advance of residential development at Loughborough Road, Asfordby, Leicestershire, archaeological activity was identified from the Mesolithic, Late Neolithic–Early Bronze Age and Iron Age periods. The site is located on the north-west edge of Asfordby village, to the south of the A6006 and on the north-east side of Loughborough Road at NGR SK 701 192 (Fig. 1). It covers an area of c.1.8ha, which had been undeveloped pasture since the late nineteenth century. The site lies at a height of between c.75.6m OD at the west and c.78.3m in the centre-north of the site, where there is a slight crest.
