Univ logo Complicated overhead line system UKACC PhD Presentation Showcase Slide 2 IntroductionIntroduction Trolleybus is coming back the world and UK But some fundamental issues without change for a hundred years Very inflexible operation De-wiring& re-wiring problems
Univ logo UKACC PhD Presentation Showcase Slide 3 Research Aims Overcome problems and develop next generation trolleybus by novel idea of ACTCCS Urban Trolleybus Lorry Trolleybus on Future E-Motorway Single overhead line Solo pantograph rod Automatic de-&re-wiring Flexible operation
