SUMMARY:RTSA Special Event (jointly with IMechE): Felix Schmid - "The Long History and Exciting Future of Railway Systems Thinking"
DESCRIPTION:This special event is co-hosted with Institution of Mechanical Engineers (IMechE) \nFelix Schmid\, Chair of the Railway Division of the IMechE for 2020-2021\, has chosen ‘The Long History and Exciting Future of Railway Systems Thinking’ as the theme for his Chair’s Address. \nHe will briefly discuss the concept of the railway as a system of systems and he will reflect on some of the good (and not so good) examples of systems thinking during the early development of the railway as a means of transport for goods and people. He will review some of the major technical breakthroughs that enable today’s high performance railways and he will reflect on some recent developments\, where he had an involvement. Felix will argue that not all technological progress is entirely fit for purpose. He will also include some thoughts on his career as an engineer and innovative educator \nSpeaker: Felix Schmid\nProgramme Director – MSc Railway Systems Engineering and Integration\, University of Birmingham\n\n\n\nBorn in Zürich\, Switzerland\, Felix Schmid graduated from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology with a degree in electrical and electronic engineering. Following a brief career in software analysis in his home country\, he moved to Manchester\, England\, to work for GEC Traction as a loco­motive con­trol systems engineer. \nIn 1982 he became a research engineer at UMIST and later a re­search assis­tant at the University of Salford. He then joined Brunel University as a lecturer in com­puter integ­rated manufacturing. In 1993\, he took up a post as a railway inspector with the Swiss Federal Office of Transport but realised quickly that he was not suited to a civil service role. After a year\, he re­turned to Britain and a senior lectureship at the University of Sheffield\, where he was employed to develop the MSc programme in Railway Systems Engineering. In 2005\, Felix and the programme transferred to the University of Birmingham and the Birmingham Centre for Railway Re­search and Education. Between 2005 and 2019\, he managed three railway related masters pro­grammes and he still supervises research in the areas of railway control\, railway operations and systems engineering. \nFelix became a Fellow of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers in 2003. He is on the Board and the Executive of the Railway Division and has led four Railway Technical Tours between 2016 and 2019. He is currently involved in the planning of the Railway Technical Tour 2020. Felix Schmid has pro­vided contributions to many IMechE railway conferences and seminars\, including ten Young Members’ seminars. He is also a fellow of the Institution of Railway Signalling Engineers and of the Permanent Way Institution. \n  \n\nClick on the link below to register:

SUMMARY:Joint RTSA NZ Chapter / CORE Connect Event: Development of Structural health-index based national asset management system
DESCRIPTION:Join the Railway Technical Society of Australasia and Rudolph Kotze to discuss KiwiRail’s approach to developing a national Structural health-index based asset management system . This presentation is being held as a joint RTSA New Zealand meeting in Wellington and will also be broadcast live as a CORE Connect Webinar \nKiwiRail\, as the manager and operator of New Zealand’s national rail network\, is dependent on reliable assets to support the goal of delivering profitable and cost-effective freight and passenger services. In order to achieve these and other safety-related organisational goals\, asset\, and risk management planning as well as accurate prioritisation of capital investment\, it is necessary to ensure that the assets remain fit for purpose and operate within acceptable engineering safety limits. There must be an evidence-based\, scientific way of managing the assets despite the shortfalls with the funding and other setbacks. \nThe KiwiRail Structures Team has developed a system-based method of assessing individual structures\, unique in New Zealand\, to provide a health-index based on a number of key risk criteria. It provides valuable information\, not only for KiwiRail asset managers (regional and head office) to prioritise assets for regular maintenance\, but also for stakeholders including contractors to obtain key information on each asset requiring intervention. In addition to the framework\, through the application of field-mobility\, condition data is now captured digitally and uploaded remotely to a central asset management system. Currently around 400 of the 1700 bridges on the KiwiRail network have been assessed and it is intended to be progressively extended to also cover tunnels and other structures. \nSpeaker: Rudolph Kotze\, Professional Head Structures\, KiwiRail \nRudolph Kotze is responsible for technical standards and strategy for KiwiRail’s structures. He also provides technical advice to the wider business and is focused on ensuing that best-practice asset and risk management principles are developed and implemented. He has been involved in bridge and structures design and asset management for over 30 years\, working in various technical and management roles in South Africa\, New Zealand and Australia. \nWhen: Wednesday 4th November\, 6pm -7pm New Zealand time ( 4pm-5pm AEST)\nWhere: Engineering New Zealand\, Level 6\, NEC House\, Taranaki Street\, Wellington and Online\nCost: FREE \nClick on the link below to register (for those attending via webinar link will be shared once you have registered):

SUMMARY:EA Event (Webinar) - Costa Rica's San Jose Metro Build and Tunnelling Project
DESCRIPTION:Mobility is an important issue for all cities\, big or small\, since traffic and congestion are common urban problems everywhere. San José\, the capital city of Costa Rica\, is not an exception. \nDifferent efforts have been made so far to address the growing mobility problem of the city\, where people can spend more than 90 minutes to go through its 8.5 km length during rush hours. Most of these efforts are not enough and the city continues to be a hard-to-travel place. Thus\, alternative solutions as light train\, Tram\, monorail\, RTB or a Metro have been proposed to improve mobility in the future. \nThis presentation focuses on one of these proposed projects: an underground metro system. Considered as one of the most financial resources demanding solutions it is\, at the same time\, the most effective. The proposed solution comprises four lanes\, developed in progressive stages for a total cost of US$4.7 billion for 48.4 km total length and approximately 17 years of continuous construction. The project is only at the preliminary stage and it is not an approved project\, but a proposal from a group of the civil society to improve the quality of life of Costa Rican inhabitants. Private funding is seen as the only realistic means to develop such a project under a concession scheme. \nSpeaker: Marco Tapio\, Civil Engineer\, University of Costa Rica \nMarco Tapia is a Civil Engineer from the University of Costa Rica\, where he also obtained\, with honours\, a Master of Science Degree in Geotechnics. In addition\, he obtained a Master’s degree in Tunnels and Tunnel Boring Machines at the Polytechnic of Turin\, Italy. \nMarco is a professor of the Master’s in Civil Engineering at the University of Costa Rica where he teaches the Underground Engineering course\, as well as at the Costa Rican Institute of Technology where he teaches the Applied Geology course for the Construction Engineering degree.

Running parallel projects which involve multiple government agencies and private operators requires a high level of communication to ensure everyone has the same understanding of the changing network configurations. \nThis risk is highlighted in VDAS\, the Office of Project Victoria Digital Asset Strategy (VDAS) which aims to achieve an efficient and sustainable physical asset delivery and improve whole-of-life management across Victoria. \nThe Department of Transport Systems Engineering team was an early actor in transitioning the engineering effort from textual form to data to help with the consistency issue and to ensure program/project benefits realisation\, assess the impact of change\, and improve risk management and ensure the integrity of the network. \nThe architecture developed in that effect uses model-based systems engineering technics to describe and link the heavy rail system layers of concerns from goals\, to objectives\, levels of service and performance parameters. Network Configuration baselines substantiate key parameters allowing the allocation of capability increases to specific projects. This novel approach based on strong data structure and management\, automatic requirements generation and coupled with tailored visualisations greatly eases the development of the Heavy Rail network. \nThe presentation will showcase this new methodology and describe how the Victorian Department of Transport developed it internally and with external partners. Learn more about this unusual railway model\, including its benefits and challenges\, further developments and future next steps such as: \n\nstandards requirements elicitation\nheavy rail strategies generation\nsimulation models data configuration\n\nSpeaker: Fabrice Lestideau: Victorian Department of Transport \nOver the last 16 years\, Fabrice has been involved in the development of complex critical systems such as electronic warfare (C4I + EW)\, maritime patrol\, air traffic control and heavy rail systems. In his roles as Systems Engineering Manager and Systems Architect\, he has specialised in model-based systems engineering and providing training in the use of the ARCADIA methodology. Now working for the Victorian Department of Transport in charge of the development of a transport Network Architecture\, he is also co leading the development of a commercial telecommunication model for the INCOSE Telecommunication Working Group. \nClick on the link below to register:

SUMMARY:Special Webinar RTSA Awards 2020 and Guest Talk: "The Mobility Revolution" from Futurist Steve Sammartino
DESCRIPTION:Technology and human movement are inextricably linked. The level of our technology is dictated by the how\, where and why of travel and\, while it is easy to believe we are going through a digital revolution – it’s actually all about mobility. Mobility of information\, data\, energy\, people and work.  In this presentation\, keynote speaker Steve Sammartino\, will break down the underlying theme and explore how transport will morph in the future and what it means for industry\, where and how we work and live. The good news is that we are the generation that gets to reshape it all. \nPrior to the presentation the Railway Technical Society of Australasia (RTSA) will announce the following awards. \n\nRailway Student Thesis Award\nRailway PhD Thesis Award\nRailway Professional of the Year Award\nRTSA Individual Award\nRTSA Biennial Railway Project Award\n\nKeynote Speaker: Steve Sammartino \nSteve is Australia’s leading Futurist. He’s created technology world firsts\, written extensively and has a rare ability to communicate it all on stage. His high-octane keynote will change how you see the world. Steve starting coding at age 10 and had his first startup by age 12. He has since built and sold a number of businesses. As a futurist\, he’s ahead of his time. He launched one of the first Sharing Economy Startups – Rentoid.com in 2006. Respected global business media including Forbes\, Fast Company and TechCrunch credited it as the start of the sharing economy movement giving birth to Uber and Airbnb. Steve later sold it to a publicly traded company in Australia. \nHe is mentor for startup entrepreneurs and a technology investor. Steve’s ability to see the future is ratified by this fact: His portfolio has grown more than 100x the original investment. Steve built the world’s first drivable car entirely out of Lego. It’s had more than 100 million views globally. (He had to fight off Jay Leno who was desperate to have it in his garage). He put a toy space shuttle into actual earth orbit by hacking together a rig for under $2000\, and he’s on the technical advisory committee for the design of Australia’s new drone regulations. Steve is currently building the world’s most modern house – it will be 3D printed too! The subject of a new documentary film.
