Abstract

This study was carried about the basic design and FEM analysis of aluminium carbody for articulated trailer of Korean High Speed Train of maximum operating speed of 350㎞/h. The integral design by extra-long extruded sections made possible through the use of aluminium alleys and continuous window shape with skin were adopted in the basic design of aluminium carbody. Articulated structures in each trailer's end were welded laterally on both sides of gangway. FEM analysis showed that the design satisfied the specified load criteria. Futher study should be carried out for optimal design which enables the weight of carbody structure to reduce adequately.
