The Chair of Infrastructure Management presents at the TUM GNI Symposium & Expo on Artificial Intelligence for the Built Worldg
Prof. Dr. Bryan Adey’s Chair of Infrastructure Management was represented at the Georg Nemetschek Institute Symposium, which took place from September 10-12 2024 at TUM in Munich, Germany.
Doctoral candidate Steven Chuo presented “Connecting BIM to the Railway Intervention Planning Process”, where he discussed the requirements to facilitate digital transformation for intervention planning, and demonstrated the implementation of digital tools on an example process from Switzerland. Hamed Mehranfar presented “A Methodology for Determining Optimal Component-Level Railway Intervention Programs”, in which he presented an analytic approach to consider interdependencies between infrastructure assets and to provide possible intervention programs for planners to explore the decision space.
Manolis Katsimpalis, a doctoral candidate supervised by Prof. Dr. Carl Haas at the University of Waterloo and co-supervised by Prof. Dr. Bryan Adey, presented “Semantically Loaded Point Clouds in Virtual Reality”, where he showed how project planning could become more effective with realistic and immersive VR simulations by enabling users to manipulate environments using intuitive controls.
It was an engaging symposium with academics and practitioners, and great ideas were discussed with the application of AI to help decision-making in practice.
The Infrastructure Management Group mission is to improve the construction and management of infrastructure. For more information visit our webpage
