A complete list of publications on PRT by JE Anderson Ph.D., P.E.
Full CV for Dr JE Anderson
The author was invited to speak at North Park College as the 1994 Distinguished Alumnus Lecturer on his role in the development of Personal Rapid Transit (PRT), the first genuinely new urban transportation system to appear in a century. This Chapel Lecture describes his relevant technical experience, his search for meaning, his need for interdisciplinary project work, and the extraordinary circumstances and timing that led him to PRT as a new career and that carried this work to the point where it has been taken over by a major corporation and a major urban transportation authority. The lecture ends with a challenge to young people to aim high and seek a noble cause of fundamental importance to mankind.
Dr Anderson provides answers to frequently asked questions at Branson Missouri and other cities.
This set of rules are regarded by Dr Anderson as the most fundamental in the search he has conducted
for a truly optimum PRT design. It came out of many years of design
practice, research, and teaching. When PRT projects have gone sour Dr Anderson has found that the root cause has been violation of one or more of
these rules. The contents of this paper is included in Dr Anderson's key paper "The
Future of HCPRT,"
