Abstract:This project planned and developed the course material for CEE 598 RTD, and taught it as a fullsemester course open to graduate students at UIUC in Fall 2014. Students enrolled in the class participated in lecture-discussion sessions, twice a week for 1-1/2 hours, throughout the semester.
Students spent additional time outside the lectures coordinating the class semester design project. During the course of the semester, the CEE 598 RTD students worked as a class to complete a major terminal planning study. The main components of the planning study included a track layout, control system design and operating plan for each of several project alternatives for a proposed classification yard and intermodal facility.
