  1. VEL-WAGON Versatile EfficientandLonger Wagon for European Transportation Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  2. Official Information • EC FP7-SST-2010-RTD-1 • Collaborative Project, Nr. 265610 • Duration: 25 M (01.12.2010-31.12.2012) • 4 Partners: • TUB: SFWBB (Prof. Siegmann) und SFZ (Prof. Hecht) • UNIZA: Departments Railway Transportation, Transportation Networks and Machines • TVP: Tatravagonka (Slowakia) • KTH: Railway Group (Prof. Nelldal) • Advisory Board (SNCB, UIC, DB, Green Cargo, HPA, UIRR, DUSS, ECT, ERS and Private Consultants) • Total budget: ~ 1Mio EUR (EC Fund: 831.687 EUR) VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  3. Project Idea • Longer loading surfaces without interruption, as well as more capable platforms with higher axle loads and with lower loading heights to increase the capacity of the freight railway transportation VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  4. Scientific Objectives • Present and future road-rail transport market • Present and future wagonload transportation market in Europe • Infrastructure limitations, technical and economical, to extended wagon lengths, axle loads and loading gauges • Wagon enlargement possibilities, especially when it comes to length between bogie pivots, length between pivots and couplers, loading height and loading gauge for ITUs (also semitrailers) and conventional units, tare weight, heavy stresses on frame as well as dynamic and static characteristics of such wagons VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  5. Data source: Eurostat and UIC 2011 Background freightrailways • Drop in t-km transported by railways after 1990 and slightly decreasing during last two decades • Severe drop in number of wagons employed in rail freight transportation • More efficient utilization of wagons, especially intermodal wagons • Longer distances of transport VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  6. Supply Chain PRODUCTION Industries Technology, sophistication, specialization INPUT TRANSPORT Raw materials Heavy transports What counts: Price OUTPUT TRANSPORT Finished and semi-finished products Light transports, long distances What counts: Price and quality Micro Logistics VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  7. Road transport • 80% ofroadtransports Volume oriented • 20% ofroadtransport Weightoriented Data source: Eurostat 2011 Data source: Eurostat 2011 VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  8. Road transport • Lighter goods tend to travel longer distances than heavy goods Data source: Ministerio de Fomento 2011 VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  10. Container Transportation Data source: Rotterdam Port, New York, Los Angeles and Long Beach Ports Data source: Ci-Census 2003 (own calculations to interpret 2010 share) Averaged gross weight of a loaded container in Europe: ~12,5 t/TEU VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  11. Container Transportation(2) Source data: 2011 Eurogate and Euromax terminals, Antwerp Port statistics and Eurostat. VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  12. Continental Transport Data source: Combination of data from Eurostat, Destatis and UIRR statistics; validated with the data of a big intermodal operator, arrows indicate trend. (It does not include 20 and 40 ft sea containers) VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  13. Wagon fleet Intermodal wagons in Europe Source data: Diomis report “Intermodal rolling stock in Europe” VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  16. Intermodal transport VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy

  17. Advantages * Source data: VEL-wagon study, 100km track Würzburg–Nürnberg, 500 m long train, different loading schemas. • More TEUs/ m • More payload / m • More TEUs/ m • Less payload / m • ~15% less consumption / TEU* VEL-Wagon Dipl.-Ing. A. Carrillo Zanuy
