This book discusses the problems of delivering goods from East and South-East Asia to Europe, presenting the regional transport problems experienced in Italy, Slovakia, Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Poland.

​This book discusses various issues of modeling freight and passenger traffic, and explores the common approaches and regional differences. The latter may be a consequence of national legislation or the various approaches that are adopted by scientists around the globe.It focuses on the organization of transcontinental transport and aspects of planning and harmonizing the movement of various transport means, particularly intermodal and multimodal transport. New approaches to the prediction of transportation needs are also considered.Written by international experts, the book is divided into 2 parts: the first part analyzes passenger transport, while the second addresses freight transport.It is intended wide audience, including university professors, graduate and Ph.D. students; transport professionals, and logistics specialist.

This book analyzes how transport influences the ecology of various regions. Presenting scientific advances from 7 European countries, the book appeals to experts, teachers and students, as well as to anyone interested in the environmental aspects of the transport industry.

This book focuses on the role of Artificial Intelligence in solving transportation problems and presents papers from around the world on AI in transportation.

This book constitutes the post-conference proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Problems of Logistics, Management and Operation in the East-West Transport Corridor, PLMO 2025, held in Baku, Azerbaijan, during May 13-15, 2025.The 12 full papers and 3 short papers included in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers focus on challenges in transportation of goods across different modes and explore solutions through digital technologies and the digital economy.

This book explores diesel engines used in various modes of transport. The famous American writer Mark Twain once wrote, "The reports of my death are greatly exaggerated." To paraphrase his statement, we could say, "The reports of diesel engines' death are greatly exaggerated." Indeed, there is currently a steady trend toward the use of electric motors. However, firstly, a sufficient amount of stored electricity is necessary, and renewable energy sources are currently insufficient. Secondly, diesel engine developers are constantly developing new engine designs that are more cost-effective, more environmentally friendly, and offer a number of other advantages. This book is devoted to the latest developments in the use of diesel engines, their new designs, technological aspects of their use, related environmental issues, and other relevant information. The book's strength lies in its comprehensive approach to the issue, analyzing it from various perspectives by scientists representing different countries and holding diverse approaches. Thus, the book can be characterized as a single-themed scientific monograph, designed to inform the public about the achievements of scientists from eight countries. This book is intended for scientists, teachers, and students. It can also be recommended to a wider audience interested in the various applications of engines in the transportation industry and the achievements of modern science in various countries.

This book presents a discussion of problems encountered in the deployment of Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS). It puts emphasis on the early tasks of designing and proofing the concept of integration of technologies in Intelligent Transport Systems. In its first part the book concentrates on the design problems of urban ITS. The second part of the book features case studies representative for the different modes of transport. These are freight transport, rail transport and aerospace transport encompassing also space stations. The book provides ideas for deployment which may be developed by scientists and engineers engaged in the design of Intelligent Transport Systems. It can also be used in the training of specialists, students and post-graduate students in universities and transport high schools.

This book shows how the systems approach is employed by scientists in various countries to solve specific problems concerning railway transport. In particular, the book describes the experiences of scientists from Romania, Germany, the Czech Republic, the UK, Russia, Ukraine, Lithuania and Poland. For many of these countries there is a problem with the historical differences between the railways. In particular, there are railways with different rail gauges, with different signaling and communication systems, with different energy supplies and, finally, with different political systems, which are reflected in the different approaches to the management of railway economies. The book’s content is divided into two main parts, the first of which provides a systematic analysis of individual means of providing and maintaining rail transport. In turn, the second part addresses infrastructure and management development, with particular attention to security issues. Though primarily written for professionals involved in various problems concerning railway transport, the book will also benefit manufacturers, railway technical staff, managers, and students with transport specialties, as well as a wide range of readers interested in learning more about the current state of transport in different countries.

This book discusses the problems of delivering goods from East and South-East Asia to Europe, presenting the regional transport problems experienced in Italy, Slovakia, Russia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Poland. The book is divided into two parts. The first part is devoted to the analysis of various issues in global logistics and regional transport, which operate in transport corridors. The second part of the book focuses on solutions to some of the technical and informatics problems related to the organization of transportation along the East–West routes. Intended primarily for professionals involved in various aspects of cargo delivery along the East–West routes, the book is also useful for manufacturers, technical staff at logistics companies, managers, students of transport-related subjects, as well as for a wide range of readers interested in the current state of transport in different countries.
