probabilistic gauging as an evolution of traditional absolute gauging
Colin Johnson from D/Gauge Ltd (UK) will give a presentation that introduces probabilistic gauging as an evolution of traditional absolute gauging, using distributions and Monte Carlo simulation to represent real‑world variability and derive Exceptional Clearance and Chance of Foul. It then applies this to the Network Rail’s Wales & Western network, showing how many vehicles, gauges and structures are affected and how the “probabilistic limit” vehicle or gauge effectively sets maintenance needs.
Railway Engineering Community of Knowledge
The original PWI Lunch and Learn sessions were launched in 2024, building a community for industry experts to share their knowledge on Rail Infrastructure Engineering and a great Continuous Professional Development(CPD) opportunity for all!
The topics can cover technical research, project delivery or novel technology; the first ever event covered the delivery of a major rail infrastructure project with the subsequent session on the technical intricacies of turnouts.
The key difference to other PWI chapter events is this event spans all states and wider, looking to connect like-minded professionals from different rail infrastructure managers for the benefit of the rail industry as a whole; with internationally delivered presentations also planned.
This is achieved by holding the events on line via Microsoft Teams, typically every 8 weeks.
