An Assessment of Derailment Safety of Railway Vehicle depending on Curve Rail Condition

곡선부 선로 조건에 따른 차량의 탈선안전도평가

To assess the derailment safety of the Samaeul Train, We developed a fleet analysis model and carried out sensitivity analysis of the variables related to derailment factors with ADAMS/Rail computing analysis method. Depending on the variation of the running speed in curve section, derailment coefficient and wheel load reduction rate are high at right side wheels in slow running speed section and low at left side wheel in high running speed. According to decreasing the radius of curve, derailment coefficient and wheel load decreasing rate are increased. Derailment coefficient is proportional to transition curve length and wheel load decreasing rate is constant. Cant value rising causes wheel load deduction rate rising.
