The Story of the High-Speed Transport Complex Chief Designer

Dear friends, we are glad to share with you the next publication of the string technologies developer. The next interlocutor of the announced series of interviews is Vitaliy Lapkovskiy, Chief Designer of the High-Speed Transport Complex.

He oversees such developments in which the movement of rolling stock is carried out at a speed of up to 250 km/h. The department's specialists have already found all the necessary design and technological solutions that make it possible to put this into practice. One of the most important tasks, which they are currently working on, is certification, that is, confirmation of the compliance of the declared requirements and characteristics with international regulatory requirements. Obviously, this is not a simple and fast but a very painstaking process, since there are no trifles in matters of conformity confirmation, especially in safety matters, and the structure of the string transport and infrastructure complex includes many elements that are evaluated from the point of view of confirming the performance of safety functions. Nothing could be more important, because, according to statistics, annually car accidents claim more than 1.5 million lives, and over 10 million people become disabled.

We think we can express the general view if we say that RSW Systems investors are proud to be involved in creating a transport system that, through its technical characteristics, minimizes the problems posed by traditional modes of transport.

If you are interested to find out what difficulties Vitaliy Lapkovskiy's department has encountered, as well as what projects it is currently working on, we recommend reading the report “UST 2021: the chief designer of high-speed transport complex shared company’s achievements” on the official website of the developer.
