A comparison of the energy use per passenger-mile of eight modes of urban transportation is made in terms of eleven variables, resulting in conclusions about the direction transit system design should take to provide adequate transportation with minimum energy use. The method can easily be programmed on a personal computer to be used to study the effects of parameter variations on energy use.
This paper documents 32 vehicle simulation programs that have been developed since 1969 to simulate the operation of automated vehicles operating in net-works of guideway under a variety of strategies
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,"
