    Hizli Rayli Sistemlerin Yolcu Taşima Kapasite Hesaplamalari Ve Türkiyedeki Benzer Sistemlerin Birbirleriyle Karşilaştirilmasi

    HIZLI RAYLI SİSTEMLERİN YOLCU TAŞIMA KAPASİTE HESAPLAMALARI VE TÜRKİYEDEKİ BENZER SİSTEMLERİN BİRBİRLERİYLE KARŞILAŞTIRILMASI Ilgaz CANDEMİR_ , Serhan TANYEL_ SUMMARY Rail transit systems are found to be the most trusted transit systems all over the world. They have become one of the main parts of daily urban life as they provide, fast, safe and comfortable journey for passengers. If they are planned precisely, capacities up to10000-40000 passengers/hour can be achieved. They are also used as an important tool for to maintain well developed cities and provide dynamic city centers. In this study, some of the most important rail transit systems in Turkey are introduced. Their capacities tried to be determined by using different capacity calculation methods and the results are tired to be compared. ÖZET Dünyada halen en güvenilir ulaşõm modu, raylõ sistemlerdir. Gelişen teknolojinin yansõmasõ ile birlikte hõz, sinyalizasyon ve konfor problemlerini çözen kentsel raylõ sistemler büyük şehirler için vazgeçilmez olmuşlardõr. Planlama ,dizayn,araç ve ekipman seçimi, inşaat ve sonrasõnda çok titiz bir işletim isteyen metro hatlarõ ortalama 10000-40000 yolcu/saat kapasiteleri olan güçlü toplu taşõmacõlõk sistemlerdir. Raylõ sistemler ayrõca kentin homojen olarak gelişmesinin sağlanmasõnda önemli bir araç olarak görülmekte ve dinamik kent merkezlerinin oluşturulmasõnda etken olmaktadõrlar. Bu bildiride Türkiye’deki raylõ sistemleri hakkõnda kõsaca bilgi verildikten sonra, Türkiye’deki bazõ önemli raylõ ulaşõm sistemlerinin kapasiteleri farklõ yöntemlerle hesaplanarak, birbirleriyle karşõlaştõrõlmaya çalõşõlmõştõr. 1.GİRİŞ Dünyada 179 farklõ şehrin benimsendiği Metro ,hafif raylõ ve tramvay gibi kentiçi raylõ ulaşõm sistemleri, son yõllarda geç kalõnmasõna rağmen belediyelerimizin de rağbet ettiği ve ulaşõm politikalarõnõn baş hedefi haline gelen pahalõ inşaat yatõrõmlarõdõr.

    GLOBAL METRO PROJECTS REPORT 2012 Metropolitan railways (metros) are high capacity electric transport systems that operate on dedicated routes, and can thereby achieve high service speed and frequency. Over the last few years, metros (also known as subway, underground or tube) have evolved as an efficient and effective urban mobility solution in addressing the growing concerns of urbanisation and climate change. This is supported by the fact that despite high capital requirements the sector witnessed a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.7 per cent between 2005 and 2010. In high density urban areas, metros form the backbone of integrated public transport systems and offer proven economic, social and environmental benefits. Given the huge investment requirement and long life span, metro systems have always been a driving force for technological and financial innovations. Government and metro operators are constantly seeking solutions to improve reliability and customer service, lower fuel and maintenance costs, as well as increase efficiency and safety levels in operations. The Global Metro Projects Report provides updated information on the world's top 101 metro projects that present significant capital investment opportunities. These projects have a total existing network length of about 8,900 km and a proposed length of over 8,000 km. The report covers 51 countries representing about 80 per cent of the world’s gross domestic product. It presents the key information required to assess investment opportunities in the development of new lines, extension and upgrade of existing lines, rolling stock procurement and refurbishment, power and communication systems upgrades, fare collection, as well as station construction and refurbishment.
