Transportation Energy and Dynamics de Sunil Kumar Sharma

Transportation Energy and Dynamics: Energy, Environment, and Sustainability

Editat de Sunil Kumar Sharma, Ram Krishna Upadhyay, Vikram Kumar, Hardikk Valera
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 iun 2023
This book provides a macro-level understanding of transportation as an industry, through the lens of all the stakeholders that make up the ecosystem. It aids understanding about the transportation ecosystem, its components, challenges, contribution to economic growth, and the interplay between the stakeholders that govern the system. The contents also examine the background and history of transportation, emphasizing the fundamental role and importance the industry plays in companies, society, and the environment in which transportation service is provided. The book also provides an overview of carrier operations, management, technology, and the strategic principles for the successful management of different modes of transportation. This book is of interest to those working in academia, industry, and policy in the areas of transportation.
