Overview
The new trains in Singapore are part of Land Transport Authorithy`s efforts to enhance existing rail capacity for the coming years. Out of the 42 trains, 18 trains are aimed at the North East Line (NEL) of the network while the Circle Line (CCL) will receive the 24 trains. This will improve fleet capacity by 60-70% on both lines.
The Gantner Solution
Once train cars shipped to Singapore they carrry out testing before they put them in to operation.
Test Measurement and Control system from Gantner Instruments equipped with multi-channel analog input modules and Dynamic High Voltage input modules with high isolations for Train testing for the complete driverless metro system designed and constructed by Alstom which are operating on NEL (North East Line) and CCL (Circle Line) Railway lines. The Alstom Metropolis C830 are the second generation of communication-based train control (CBTC) rolling stock currently using in Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) lines to meet the growing demand of passengers in Singapore.

Monitoring volcano activity is an important issue in the mitigation of natural hazards. Recently, most fatal issues occurred on volcanoes with low-energy and moderate activity, making them attractive touristic places (e.g., the 2014 Mount Ontake eruption in Japan). For these types of volcanoes, monitoring involves multiphysics measurements on dense networks. Distributed networks of sensors must be easily adapted to the volcano’s evolving state and the appearance of new active areas like fumaroles or high heat flux in the soil.
