Impact of pavement friction decay on speed limits and autonomous vehicles: A theoretical and experimental study by Filippo Giammaria Praticò

“…Unfortunately, not only do these reference values not correspond to a given standard to measure them, but nothing is said about the decrease of the posted speed limit (variable speed limits) when roads become slippery and lanes for autonomous vehicle (AV) are concerned.Furthermore, the same assessment of the friction coefficient has plenty of uncertainties due to measurement device, temperature, location, time passed from the construction, alignment-related variables (e.g., curve, tangent, transition curve, convexity/crests or concavity/sags, longitudinal slope, superelevation, and ruling gradient), and supplementary singularities such as joints and bridge approaches. …”

Scientific priorities for the use of alternative energy sources in railway transport by A. B. Kosarev, I. A. Rebrov, S. N. Naumenko, A. V. Barch

“…Therefore, one of the key tasks in the development of railway transport is the creation of high-speed highways that will serve as an alternative to road and air communications over short distances.In addition to the well-known alternative energy technologies, the railway transport traditionally conducts scientific research to improve energy-saving technologies, which include the use of excess recuperation energy when rolling stock braking.Also, projects for the use of renewable energy sources — heat pump installations — have proved their effectiveness in railway transport: heating switches from the ground, use of heat from compressors of hill complexes to heat electrical centralization posts and heat transformers of traction substations for its own needs.The role of alternative energy sources in railway transport is constantly growing. …”
