Rail infrastructure managers face daily challenges such as asset degradation, vibrations that affect service quality, and energy consumption that is difficult to optimize. These issues have a direct impact on the system’s efficiency and safety and require advanced solutions that combine engineering expertise with new technologies.

On 23 September, Ceit is hosting this webinar to present solutions built on more than 30 years of railway research. The session will showcase methodologies and tools to detect problems early, assess asset condition and make evidence‑based maintenance decisions, as well as innovative approaches for energy optimization. Real‑world use cases will also be presented to show how research translates into practical improvements for day‑to‑day operations.

Speakers

The event will feature Borja Rodríguez, Head of Ceit’s Railway Group, and Pablo Ciaurriz, Deputy Head of the group, who will address experimental and advanced simulation capabilities, the sector’s main current challenges, and the technologies being developed to tackle them.

The session is especially designed for infrastructure and rolling‑stock managers seeking to improve operational efficiency and strengthen railway system safety. A Q&A will be held at the end to exchange ideas.
