2024 STAMP: System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA) for Europe’s Rail
05-06-2024
Europe's Rail Joint Undertaking (ERJU) is advancing
the Single European Rail Network and modernizing rail transport systems. A key
initiative is demonstrating a novel train protection system using moving block
principles, which requires high safety assurance. STPA was chosen for hazard
analysis due to its early design applicability. This presentation discusses the
integration of STPA within ERJU, focusing on its role in the Moving Block ETCS
Level 3 Specification project. It addresses challenges in providing feedback
for requirements development, validating assumptions with experts, and ensuring
the analysis impacts various work packages.
