STABILITY project of the IM Group in the latest SBB Newsletter
This year's issue of the SBB Newsletter for the month of May presents the ETH STABILITY project, which is being carried out by the Chair of Infrastructure Management under the direction of Prof. Bryan T. Adey.
Project description
The future of rail transport will be one where trains carrying passengers and goods flow seamlessly from their origins to their destinations. Potential disruptions due to train incidents will be foreseen with the extensive use of surveillance technologies, and either prevented through the implementation of detailed action plans or their consequences eliminated with the seamless rerouting of trains. Interventions on the infrastructure, whether it be the grinding of tracks, or expansion of train stations, will be carried out in perfectly allotted slots in train schedules. Train schedules will be stable and the use of train schedule reserves will be maximized.
