2016 IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Rail Transportation
Tuesday 23 - 25 August 2016
Gisbert Kapp Building (G8), University of Birmingham
To attend, please register here
As demand for rail transportation continues to rapidly increase, significant challenges have arisen to many railways in terms of capacity, carbon emissions, cost and customer satisfaction (the 4Cs). To meet these challenges, new technologies have been gradually introduced to rail transportation to improve the 4Cs. The 2016 IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Rail Transportation provides a forum for scientists and engineers working in academia, industry and government to present their latest research findings and engineering experiences in application of 'New Technologies to Improve Railway Capacity, Carbon emission, Cost and Customer satisfaction'.
The conference will explore the following topics:
• Traffic management and train control
• System modelling and simulation
• System optimisation
• Transportation planning and timetabling
• Condition monitoring
• RAMS
• Non-destructive testing
• Data modelling and integration
• Communication technology
• Railway infrastructure
• Intelligent rail transport
• Energy modelling and management
• Vehicle dynamics and control
• Capacity analysis
• Human factors
• System automation
