Technical Talk: Digital Twins in Rail Systems Application
Presented by: Dr Jacek Mocki, Founder | Consultant | Asset Management | Integration | Process MOTZKY Pty Ltd
Digital technology has been introduced to rail systems since the early 1990s. Initially, digitisation supported rail engineering by replacing hand-drawn designs with printed copies of artefacts. This significantly improved the design process and reduced the need for large office space. Further development of Computer-Aided Design (CAD) enabled attempts at design production automation, the creation of 3D models, and the association of drawings with attributes—facilitating information management through digital asset management systems. Although the technology exists, more needs to be done to standardise approaches and ensure it delivers long-term benefits, rather than leaving incomplete digital products at the end of project implementation.
The next challenge is advancing digital engineering through the development and application of digital twins to further improve rail safety.
This talk will focus on the application of digital twins. It will present a practical rail example—specifically, a rail turnout—to demonstrate how digitisation progresses and how digital twinning can enhance rail engineering, operations, and maintenance.
