Lecturer Introduction:

Dr. Edward Stewart is a senior lecturer in digital electronics and embedded systems, and more broadly in railway systems, at the University of Birmingham in the UK. He leads the instrumentation and condition monitoring team within the Birmingham Centre for Railway Research and Education (BCRRE), and the Smart Monitoring and Autonomous Systems theme within the Digital Centre for Excellence of the UK Rail Research and Innovation Network (UKRRIN). His current research portfolio includes projects to integrate acoustic and visual condition monitoring systems, third rail and running rail alignment monitoring from in-service vehicles, energy harvesting wireless sensor networks, depot based maintenance test and monitoring systems, autonomous inspection vehicles and systems, and novel computational platforms and their use within distributed monitoring architectures.

Dr. John Easton is a Lecturer with the School of Engineering at the University of Birmingham, delivering course on a range of topics including computer and communication networks, and the Internet of Things. His research interests focus on methods for the storage, processing and display of railway related datasets; in particular data representation and exchange via ontologies, manipulation and integration of data relevant to the multimodal transport system, and cyber security in industrial control systems.

Lecture Abstract:

Title: Condition monitoring of railway equipment

Abstract: The presentation will include a brief overview of the Birmingham Centre for Railway Research and Education and their activities within the UK and global railway research arenas, before focusing on work undertaken by his team in the area of Condition Monitoring and Predictive Maintenance. The presentation will consider a number of approaches to condition monitoring including evaluation of the track from vehicles, vehicles from the trackside, onboard and lineside solutions as well as dedicated inspection and monitoring technologies and autonomous inspection platforms.
