    • Abstract:
      The objective of this project is to develop curricular materials for the Rail Engineering and Education

      Symposia held in the summers of 2012 and 2014.

      Description of Activities

      The main approach to accomplish the activity is to develop and deliver power point facilitated lectures.

      Two topics are included: Introduction to Railway Infrastructure and KENTRACK 4.0 Railway

      Trackbed Structural Design and Analysis Program and Tutorial. The intended target group is collegelevel

      educators. Students are generally civil engineering instructors seeking advanced knowledge of

      rail engineering for use in their own classes. The main deliverables are the two accompanying power

      point presentations (2014 revised versions). Several other education-oriented papers and presentations

      were prepared and delivered as described below (list of activities).

      Outcomes

      The major results of this project are two modules prepared and delivered at both 2012 and 2014 REES

      symposia. Included in the appendices of this report are the latest versions of these two presentations as

      well as a list of other education related papers and presentations produced.

      Conclusions/Recommendations

      The REES materials have been made available on the NURail and Kentucky Civil Engineering

      Department web sites. Dr. Rose is available to deliver REES lectures based on updates of these

      modules in 2016 and in the foreseeable future.
