Descrizione del progetto
Reclutare accademici per promuovere l’innovazione nell’impresa comune «Ferrovie europee»
L’impresa comune «Ferrovie europee» (EU-Rail) è il recente partenariato europeo per la ricerca e l’innovazione nel settore ferroviario. Essa promuove lo sviluppo di nuove tecnologie ferroviarie per incrementare l’integrità e la sostenibilità della rete ferroviaria europea. In linea con tali obiettivi, il progetto PhDs EU-Rail, finanziato dall’UE, si propone di facilitare la collaborazione tra i portatori di interessi dell’industria e la comunità scientifica, reclutando 10 studenti post-laurea per condurre ricerche. Saranno elaborati 10 piani di ricerca unici che abbracceranno un’ampia gamma di argomenti, dalle innovazioni tecniche per la decarbonizzazione alle piattaforme di comunicazione per sistemi di gestione del traffico interoperabili e affidabili.
Obiettivo
The project PhDs EU-Rail aims to foster collaboration and innovation in the European railway sector by consolidating a scientific community and conducting research through 10 PhD positions. The project is closely aligned with the goals of the EU-RAIL Joint Undertaking (EU-Rail) and industry partners. The objectives of the project include developing a research plan for each PhD position, with the aim of submitting at least 2 peer-reviewed journal papers per position. The research topics cover a range of areas, such as supporting the implementation of rail technical innovations for decarbonization, promoting gender equality in the rail industry, exploring new education and training methods, enabling rail-based urban logistics, improving fast night train operations, studying the dynamic stability of trains over bridges, enhancing safety-relevant communication in the railway system, calculating societal KPIs of rail research programs, the railway inclusion and accessibility for individuals with intellectual disability and ICT platforms for interoperable and reliable ERTMS systems.
The project also emphasizes collaboration with industry stakeholders and participation in relevant conferences and events to disseminate research findings. By expanding the Academics4Rail project and involving major European rail companies and academia, the project seeks to strengthen research and innovation capabilities in the European railway sector.
