About

Elena Yu. Narusova is a leading researcher in railway transport safety and automation, with a focus on developing robotic systems to mitigate human risk in high-hazard operations. Her most-cited work, "Development of Robotic Systems to Improve the Safety of Railway Transport Operations" (2022, 7 citations), provides a groundbreaking analysis of technical processes at freight railway stations, identifying specific rolling-stock operations that pose elevated dangers to personnel. Narusova's key contribution lies in proposing local automated complexes that can perform these planned, high-risk tasks—such as coupling, shunting, and inspection—thereby reducing reliance on human workers in dangerous environments. By systematically mapping station workflows and pinpointing where robotic intervention can most effectively enhance safety, her research offers a practical blueprint for integrating automation into existing railway infrastructure. While her citation count reflects the nascent stage of this specialized field, Narusova's work is pivotal for engineers and policymakers seeking to modernize rail operations. Her achievements underscore a commitment to translating theoretical robotics into real-world safety solutions, making her a notable voice in the intersection of industrial automation and transportation safety.
