Paradigm shifts for railway – Technology uptake strategies for a lean, integrated and flexible railway system

Descripción del proyecto

El futuro del ferrocarril europeo

El proyecto financiado con fondos europeos FLEX-RAIL vislumbra un marco sencillo, integrado y flexible para garantizar que el sector ferroviario europeo esté posicionado para satisfacer las necesidades futuras del transporte. Para evitar posible fallos técnicos, FLEX-RAIL reelaborará las tendencias, factores influyentes, novedades y proyectos anteriores pertinentes sobre el sistema de transporte «blue-sky». El desarrollo de un escenario futuro del sistema ferroviario basado en la participación de los usuarios del ferrocarril tendrá en cuenta un análisis de las tendencias y novedades de otros sectores del transporte. El proyecto identificará las posibilidades de viabilidad empresarial y analizará las tecnologías disruptivas y los efectos de la digitalización en la seguridad.

Objetivo

Project FLEX-RAIL has the vision to target a lean, integrated and flexible railway system, which will stimulate further innovation within the rail sector and will ensure that rail services can address the future user needs. To achieve this, the following objectives and actions are defined:
To have a Forecast of evolution of key fundamental technologies, identification of technical risks and of potential blocking points project FLEX_RAIL will review relevant existing and upcoming trends, influencing factors, innovations & earlier projects on blue-sky transport system.
To look forward the possible achievement of the following future impacts the definition and implementation of a impact assessment framework and modelling tool for the defined rail scenario and transition pathways will be done.
To formulate technological concepts a future rail system scenario will be developed based on a participatory process involving all users of the rail system.The scenario will build on the analysis of trends and innovations happening in other transport sectors and of railways sector blue-sky projects and disruptive technologies.
Assessment of the scenario feasibility, considering the transition pathways, the potential business models and the governance processes will be done to the:
• Identification of key aspects for business feasibility
• Analysis of the current safety requirements and how the introduction of “train-centric” automated concept, the introduction of disruptive technologies and the digitalisation affect will change the railway safety approach.
Conclusions, recommendations and implications for the S2R activities will end the project.
Maximisation of impact will be achieved by interaction with other projects and dissemination with the objective to maximise the impact of the project amongst the rail sector and wider society thru co-operation with all existing bodies, parallel H2020 and S2R projects, scientific journals, trade publications.
