Hanna Eriksson has recently graduated high school and through the Tekniksprånget internship program got the chance to do an internship with the research group in operation and maintenance Engineering at Luleå University of Technology. There, Hanna works as a project assistant with programming for applications in the metaverse.

NASA visited Luleå University and Dr. Kai Goebel lectured on everything from the moon landing to mice in weightlessness. "What does NASA do? An insider's view" was the title of the seminar that attracted a mixed audience of students, chemists, engineers, geologists and mathematicians.

Researchers from Operation and Maintenance Engineering at Luleå Railway Research Center, Luleå University of Technology have initiated projects to develop a maintenance and technology framework for Prognosis and Health Management (PHM) for high-speed trains in China. The system will make the high-speed railway system more robust and reliable by the use of state of the art predictive and prescriptive technologies and solutions.

With a large number of sensors and the collection of large amounts of data, researchers at Luleå University of Technology will, using smart algorithms, produce more reliable analyzes for the health of railway switches. This technology aims to find a method for more efficient maintenance and less interruptions and delays, which costs society a lot of money today.
