  abstract: This book is intended to serve as a compendium on the state-of-the-art research in the field of locomotives and rail road transport. The book includes chapters on different aspects of the subject from renowned international experts in the field. The book looks closely at diesel engine locomotives and examines performance, emissions, and environmental impact. The core topics have been categorised into four groups: general topics, efficiency improvement and noise reduction, alternate fuels for locomotive traction, and locomotive emission reduction and measurement. The book offers an excellent, cutting-edge resource for researchers working in this area. The book will also be of use to professionals and policymakers interested in locomotive engine technologies and emission standards.
  table of contents: Diesel Locomotives on Indian Railways : A Technological History -- Catalytic Solutions for Diesel Particulate Emission Control -- Exhaust Heat Recovery Options for Diesel Locomotives -- Potential of DME and Methanol as Locomotive Fuel in India: Opportunities, Technology Options and Challenges -- Diesel Locomotive Noise: Sources, Measurement Methods and Standards, and Reduction Strategies -- Air Flow Regimes, Thermal Comfort and Energy Efficiency in Public Transportation Trains -- Exhaust after Treatment System for Diesel Locomotive Engines - A Review -- Development of a Mobile Emission Test Car for Indian Railways -- Soot Formation in Turbulent Diffusion Flames: Effect of Differential Diffusion.
