  • The Design and Technology of Modern Light Rail Vehicles
    MODERN LIGHT RAIL VEHICLES Fit for Purpose? The Design and Technology of Modern Light Rail Vehicles Tony Prescott The objective of this paper is to describe the major technology issues By the 1940s, development of the tram came to a halt in the US and of modern light rail vehicles, not only for the layperson, but also for Britain, once two of the leaders in world tram systems. However, in decision-makers who have to select light rail vehicles for city systems Europe design improvements continued unabated, often using PCC from an array of dazzling and usually superficial publicity for different technology, and a large tram industry thrived, particularly in Germany, the brands and models. It is important to go behind the gloss to see a few former Soviet Union and what is now the Czech Republic. Between 1945 facts more clearly. and the 1990s, the Czechs produced some 23,000 trams, largely based To most people, modern light rail vehicles, also known as trams, are, on face on PCC technology, the former Soviet Union some 15,000 and Germany value, pretty-much standard-design, low-floor articulated rail vehicles that some 8,000. Smaller numbers were developed and/or produced in some epitomise the modern renaissance of trams in city streets. But behind the other countries such as Belgium, Switzerland, Sweden and Poland. By façade of the elegant designs and glossy publicity there is a technological comparison, the few other world countries operating trams during this scenario still being played out, accompanied by a lot of dubious claims, and period, such as Australia and Canada, produced very small numbers using all is not quite as simple and straightforward as it seems.

  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE Nantes, June 15th 2021. NEOLINE confirms the choice of NEOPOLIA Mobility and signs a LOI for the construction of its first 136m sailing cargo ship following a new international tender. The project is now in the financial closure phase with the objective of starting construction this Summer, aiming for a commissioning in the first half of 2024. NEOLINE's decision to select the offer of the Loire-based company Neopolia Mobility, for the construction of its first sailing cargo ship, is motivated by a qualitative proposal from Neopolia, which was the most adjusted to the shipowner's needs. This decision comes at the end of a second international call for tenders launched at the end of 2020 by NEOLINE with about ten international shipyards. This choice was made possible by the strong mobilization of the shipyard in the Loire Valley, the members of the Neopolia network as well as the active participation of the Pays de la Loire Region and regional and national institutions. • NEOLINE is developing a responsible maritime transport offer based on the operation of ro-ro cargo ships with a main velic propulsion system, allowing a saving of 80% to 90% of the consumption and associated emissions compared to a conventional ship of the same size. • Neopolia Mobility is a company born from the Neopolia network, which aims to federate and make 240 companies work together, mainly in the Pays de la Loire region, on innovative industrial projects in order to guarantee a balanced development of the territory. Together, let’s build the future of maritime transport.

  • Bombardier Test Project Involves Induction Technology Page 1 of 3
    Bombardier test project involves induction technology Page 1 of 3 Bombardier test project involves induction technology BY FRANÇOIS SHALOM, THE GAZETTE JANUARY 10, 2013 An artist’s conception of Bombardier’s new electric bus which has its battery recharged through a capacitor under bus stops. MONTREAL — There’s no budget, no timeline, no proven technology, much less shovels in the ground or even a signed contract. But it’s substantially more than an idle dream. Montreal’s Île-Ste-Hélène is scheduled to be the North American test site this year for Bombardier Inc.’s Primove pilot project, a technology that is being tested at four sites in Germany, where the firm’s rail division is based. Primove’s mandate is to develop electric mass-transit propulsion systems, but not the vehicles themselves. Intended to bypass the conventional notion of electric buses and trolley buses powered by cumbersome batteries, Primove rests on an inductive transfer of power from ground-based electrical power sources to very small batteries placed under, not in, the bus. Sensors on the vehicles would store the energy emitted by the electro-magnetic field, but only in small quantities, feeding the bus or trolley sufficiently to reach the next power source a short distance away. The system can charge while the vehicle is in motion or at rest. http://www.montrealgazette.com/story_print.html?id=7803624&sponsor= 2/28/2013 Bombardier test project involves induction technology Page 2 of 3 “You bury power stations capable of charging rapidly, even instantly — we’re talking seconds — so that you don’t need to resort to (lengthier) conventional power boost systems currently on the market” like hybrid and electric vehicles, said Bombardier Transportation spokesperson Marc Laforge.

    Jürgen Späth, SWU / Martin Walcher, Siemens AG Avenio M Technical article for Eurotransport, December 2015 siemens.com/mobility 1 From the Combino to the Avenio M Following a Europe-wide tendering process, SWU Verkehr GmbH and Siemens signed a contract for the supply of 12 Avenio M series vehicles on May 22, 2015. This order marks a new chapter in the success story of the Combino, a modular low-floor tram system originally introduced in 1994. This article will take a closer look at the development of the Combino and its progression to the Avenio M, and introduce the Avenio M version adapted to the special requirements in Ulm. As a response to the introduction of low-floor technology at The next projects in Almada (Lisbon) and Budapest were the beginning of the 1990s – and the accompanying trend based on Combino components, but with a modified car towards the purely project-specific development of tram body concept that consisted of a single-articulated vehicle cars – in 1994, Siemens, together with its rail vehicle made of steel.
