Discover the 6 Clusters of the FP3-IAM4Rail Project by ERJU

Welcome to the video series showcasing the 6 Clusters of the FP3-IAM4Rail project, part of the ambitious European Rail Joint Undertaking (ERJU) initiative.
The FP3-IAM4Rail project focuses on transforming the future of European railways by promoting innovation, sustainability and cutting-edge technologies. To achieve this, the project is structured into six strategic Clusters, each targeting a specific area of improvement to make the rail system more efficient, sustainable and customer oriented.
Through these videos, you’ll gain insight into the unique objectives, challenges and solutions proposed by each Cluster. Whether you are a stakeholder, researcher or simply passionate about the future of rail transport, these presentations will help you better understand how FP3-IAM4Rail is contributing to building a smarter and greener railway system.

Explore the videos below to learn more about the work being carried out within the six Clusters:

1. Cluster A: Transversal Activities. This cluster unifies the common activities of the project including project coordination (Work Package 1); system vision, architecture and validation (Work Package 2); and dissemination, communication and exploitation activities (Work Package 20).
2. Cluster B: Wayside Monitoring and Traffic Management System Link. The cluster focuses on the design, development, testing and validation of an Intelligent Asset Monitoring System capable of supporting the railway operators and infrastructure managers in maintaining smooth and uninterrupted operations (Work Package 3 and Work Package 4).
3. Cluster C: Rolling Stock Asset Management: On-board and Wayside Technologies. This cluster addresses both on-board (Work Package 5 and Work Package 6) and wayside (Work Package 7) monitoring technologies for the design, testing and validation of intelligent rolling stock asset management solutions.
4. Cluster D: Infrastructure Asset Management. The infrastructure asset management cluster addresses (i) long term maintenance and costs (Work Package 8); (ii) track systems (Work Package 9); (iii) innovative multi-purpose IAMS infrastructure applications (Work Package 10 and Work Package 11); and (iv) civil assets including structures, earthworks and geotechnics (Work Package 12 and Work Package 13).
5. Cluster E: Railway Digital Twins. This group of developments focuses on the implementation of railway Digital Twins across the rail sector (Work Package 14 and Work Package 15).
6. Cluster F: Environment, User and Worker Friendly Railway Assets. Cluster F has the objective of creating environment, user and worker friendly railway assets addressing environmental and cost-effective lines (Work Package 16), new additive manufacturing repair processes (Work Package 17), robotic platforms for railway interventions (Work Package 18) and Augmented Reality and exoskeletons to support railway maintenance (Work Package 19).
