Crossrail is Europe’s biggest engineering project, and Dr Phil Bennett is the central figure in rolling-out the complex ICT systems that will run and manage the system. He explains all to E&T.
The computer technology going into our road vehicles is close to delivering everything we expect from desktops and home entertainment systems. E&T looks at what’s on offer.
E&T reports on one of a new crop of flying cars: a futuristic unfolding vehicle made of carbon fibre, which is also one of the world’s most fuel-efficient planes.
Can satellite navigation systems, car-to-car and car-to-road communications help reduce carbon emissions?
Efficient fuel cells could turn hydrogen fuel into a realistic option, discovers E&T, but only if we can figure out how to make it cleanly and distribute it to users.
Jet engine makers think that a hybrid of the turbofan and the turboprop could make aircraft significantly more efficient – if only it can be quietened. E&T reports.
E&T explains that the European Union has been rolling along the path to rail harmonisation for 20 years, with the occasional delay en route.
When you picture green cars, the last thing on your mind would be the typical 200mph racing car. But, as E&T discovers, several new racing series are shattering that conception.
Old gas-guzzling cars are reaching the end of their tenure and, as E&T explains, financially crippled car makers are in a race to hit upon the sustainable car for the future.
GPS vehicle tracking systems have come a long way from the bulky and extremely expensive original versions and the technology is finding new homes in everything from mobile phones to hand held gaming consoles.
E&T recalls a whistle-stop visit to the world’s only railway with dual nationality.
Major names in the private sector are supporting the development of an electric vehicle infrastructure in the North East of England.
The IET Transport Sector Panel identifies and advises on policy issues, and provides expert input on submissions to government and other consultations on transport matters.
