Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - 'Electric Railway Engineering' is a comprehensive and technical exploration of the design, construction, and operation of electric traction systems during the height of their development in the early 20th century. This work serves as a foundational guide to the complex infrastructure required to power and maintain electric railways, reflecting the peak of industrial innovation in the 1920s.The text covers a wide array of essential topics, including motor characteristics, power distribution systems, substations, and the mechanics of train movement. Through detailed analysis, the authors address the practical challenges of urban and interurban transit, offering insights into the efficiency and economic considerations of electrical transport. It provides an in-depth look at equipment such as trolleys, third rails, and catenary systems, alongside the engineering principles behind braking and control systems.As a significant record of the evolution of transportation technology, 'Electric Railway Engineering' illustrates the transition from steam to electric power and remains an invaluable resource for those interested in the history of civil and electrical engineering.
