Overview

Transportation engineering involves the application of scientific principles and technology to design, operate, manage, and plan transportation facilities across various modes of transportation. Its primary goal is to ensure the convenient, comfortable, efficient, swift, safe, economical, and environment-friendly movement of goods and people. By using engineering principles, transportation engineering works to enhance transportation systems. The field is broadly divided into two major areas, which are highway engineering and railroad engineering. Highway engineering involves assessing the transportation needs of the public and overseeing the design, construction, and operation of roads, highways, and other vehicular facilities. Additionally, vehicular engineering is a sub-discipline of mechanical engineering that spans various fields such as aerospace engineering, automotive engineering, marine engineering and rolling stock engineering. Through this book, constant effort has been made to make the complex subject of transportation engineering easy and informative for the students. The topics covered in it deal with the core aspects of the subject. Coherent flow of topic, student-friendly language and extensive use of examples make this book an invaluable source of knowledge.
