The proposed project seeks to change current asset management practice with an economically viable monitoring and early warning system, PRIME, that produces near-real-time information to provide decision support and 'solutions' for a range of infrastructure earthwork instability problems.In particular, this project aims to demonstrate and validate newly developed geophysical monitoring technology as a means of improving the resilience of vulnerable rail and water transportation earthworks infrastructure to environmental risks, such as extreme weather and flooding. The new technology could stream near-real-time information on the internal condition of earthworks direct to geotechnical asset owners - thereby allowing slope failure processes to be identified at an early stage so low cost preventative intervention can be planned with minimal disruption to infrastructure (rather than high-cost renewal and remediation of catastrophic earthwork failures, which can be highly disruptive - particularly for the rail industry due to financial penalties associated with delays).In response to guidance by the industrial partners we aim to further demonstrate and validate the PRIME concept by testing the approach in a greater range of operational settings, including a railway embankment and a water retaining structure on the canal network. This will allow the project team (asset owners, managers and research providers) to consider a range of practical deployment options, demonstrate an adaptive intelligent monitoring approach, undertake a cost benefit analysis, and formally assess the Technology Readiness Level of PRIME by drawing upon the outcomes of the case studies developed under this project and the study undertaken during the related Innovation B project. The overarching aim of the project is to provide the necessary evidence to the stakeholders that PRIME is applicable as an economically viable monitoring, early warning and decision support system (i.e. a 'solution') for a range of infrastructure earthwork instability problems.

拟议的项目旨在通过经济上可行的监测和预警系统PRIME来改变当前的资产管理实践，该系统可以产生近乎实时的信息，为一系列基础设施土方不稳定问题提供决策支持和“解决方案”。特别是，该项目旨在展示和验证新开发的地球物理监测技术，以提高脆弱的铁路和水运土方基础设施对极端天气和洪水等环境风险的抵御能力。这项新技术可以将有关土方工程内部状况的近实时信息直接传送给岩土工程资产所有者，从而可以在早期阶段识别边坡破坏过程，从而可以在对基础设施造成最小破坏的情况下计划低成本的预防性干预措施（而不是高成本的土方工程故障更新和补救措施）。这可能是高度破坏性的——特别是对铁路行业来说，因为延误会带来经济处罚)。根据工业合作伙伴的指导，我们的目标是通过在更大范围的运营环境中测试该方法，包括铁路堤防和运河网络上的挡水结构，进一步展示和验证PRIME概念。这将允许项目团队（资产所有者、管理人员和研究提供者）考虑一系列实际部署选项，展示自适应智能监控方法，进行成本效益分析，并通过借鉴本项目下开展的案例研究结果和相关创新B项目期间进行的研究，正式评估PRIME的技术就绪水平。该项目的主要目的是向持份者提供必要的证据，证明“初步评估”可作为经济上可行的监测、预警和决策支持系统（即“解决方案”），以解决一系列基础设施土方工程不稳定问题。
