Safety Improvement in Road & rail Tunnels using Advanced ICT and Knowledge Intensive DSS

Objectif

SIRTAKI plans to improve tunnel safety by the development and assessment of an advanced tunnel management system that specifically tackles (i) safety issues and emergencies and (ii) the integration within the overall network management. The benefits expected as result of the Project are measured in technical, social and economic terms, in particular by: Improving safety in tunnels: reducing the risk of accidents in tunnels and the severity of those taking place; Reducing stress in operators and citizens in front of an emergency; Managing tunnels and the rest of the transport network in a co-ordinated way and therefore improving the performance of the available transport infrastructures; Performing the integrated management of not only emergencies, but also other special situations -e.g. congestion, maintenance works, etc. The prototypes will be evaluated in four pilot tunnels in Spain, Italy, France and Germany. These tunnels will be road (urban, interurban), metro and railway which will validate the system developed in a wide range of situations.

Objectives:
- To develop an integrated prototype of tunnel management and decision support system (DSS) to increase tunnel safety, which will be composed by four modules:
a. Tunnel Control Model: an abstraction layer independent of any specific tunnel, which will facilitate an easier customisation of SIRTAKI to the characteristics of the tunnel, the control system and the environment in which it will be applied;
b. Inference Module (IM): a real time decision support system that will help crisis managers to take decisions in emergency situations by automatically identifying potentially dangerous situations;
c. Knowledge Basis: a learning tool that will support training, decision taking and automation of actions by applying previous experiences in emergency management and simulation of emergency situations;
d. Working Environment: it will cover not only the GUI but also those necessary aspects to guarantee the adequate support to the user in critical moments;
- To integrate and validate the SIRTAKI results in five test sites with different characteristics and requirements (urban/interurban, road/railway, etc.) in France, Germany, Italy and Spain;
- To establish a methodology and accompanying guidelines to facilitate the cost-effective adoption of the project results by any tunnel operator in Europe from the project results and lessons learned.

Work description:
The work will begin with the identification of the needs of the users with regards to a decision support system for safety and emergency management in road rail tunnels. The relevant Users will be identified and classified: tunnel operators, Local Authorities, emergency services. The main system requirements and socio-economic constraints will be extracted as conclusions from both user requirements and current system capabilities. Then the Users Requirements will be traced into technical specifications of the system as a whole and of the individual modules. Functional specifications will be provided for SIRTAKI modules: Tunnel Management Model, Inference Module, Knowledge Basis, and Tunnel Operator Working Environment. In each description there is a special focus on the results of the user poll done before to take care of their needs and wishes. An in-depth analysis of the evidenced user needs and system requirements will then be carried out in order to properly design the SIRTAKI DSS.
The next step will be the development of the four modules of SIRTAKI and their integration in the SIRTAKI prototype in laboratory to be fully tested before its installation in the five sites. An Evaluation Plan will be produced stating the methodology, scenarios and expected results for the evaluation. The Evaluation will be applied to the Final prototypes in the five pilot tunnels: Spain (2 road tunnels: 1 urban, 1 interurban), Germany (1 rail tunnel), France (1 metro tunnel) and Italy (1 road interurban tunnel). The conclusions from the individual evaluations and the lessons learned would be merged into a common practice, and guidelines for transferability of the SIRTAKI results to other tunnel management situations will be outlined. The final product will be exploited by the consortium partners: tunnel managers plan to apply SIRTAKI solution in order to increase safety in their tunnels, system suppliers plan to commercially exploit SIRTAKI, universities, research institutes and consultants plan use the conclusions extracted as best practice solutions for tunnel security.
