Due to the absence of design guidelines for elevated light-rail structures in Korea, most elevated light-rail structures have been designed and constructed based on the design codes of conventional railway bridges and on the codes recommended by foreign vehicle manufacturers. This is the main reason why most elevated light-rail structures are massive or over-designed or poorly constructed economically. In this paper, the authors carried out field tests to analyze the braking forces caused by braking a train running at speeds of 50km/h, 60km/h, and 70km/h, acting on the elevated structures of rubber-wheeled Light Rail Transit (LRT) trains. The authors also briefly describe the analyzed results of the braking force acting on the substructures of elevated light-rail structures. The test-results presented here in this paper can be referenced when establishing design guidelines or standards for elevated structures of LRT systems.

Light railway system has many characteristics of better accessibility, frequency service, low construction cost, reduced air pollution and medium capacity public transport etc. Light railway system as a urban transportation system has been glowing worldwide since the late 20th century. More than 300 cities around the world have light railway systems. Many medium-size cities in domestic site is planning the construction of light railway. This paper reviews the domestic and foreign light railway system.

무선 급전 경전철 차량은 차량이 역에 도착하였을 때 단시간에 배터리에 에너지 충전을 요구함에 따라 1MW이상의 순간 전력을 공급하는 시스템을 요구하게 된다. 때문에 대용량 파워에 따라 손실의 따른 발열량이 커지게 된다. 때문에 높은 효율을 갖는 제어 방식을 선택하는 것이 불가피하게 된다. 이러한 이유로 본 논문에서는 집전 정류기를 PLL을 통하여 스위칭 지점을 ZVS가 가능하도록 제어하고 또한 스위칭 OFF 손실을 줄이기 위하여 주파수를 4분주로 스위칭 하는 방식을 제한고 이를 실제 하드웨어를 통하여 제어 알고리즘의 타당성을 검증하였다.

경전철 차량은 1MW이상의 전력을 요구하기 때문에 단일 인버터 시스템으로 구현할 경우 시스템 부피 및 비용 증가, 효율 감소 등 문제점을 가지게 된다. 이러한 이유로, 수 kW급 인버터 스택을 병렬로 구성하여 대용량 시스템을 구현한다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 대용량 인버터 시스템을 구성하는 스택 개발 사례를 보여주고 있다. 실험을 통하여 개발한 무선급전용 인버터 스택의 성능을 검증한다.

경전철 차량에 위치한 집전장치는 무선급전 인버터로부터 전력을 공급받아 동력계통 또는 에너지 저장장치에 전력을 전달하는 역할을 한다. 따라서, 집전장치의 손실을 최소화 하고 전력을 안정적으로 전달할 수 있는 제어방법이 필요하다. 본 논문은 이러한 필요를 만족하는 적절한 제어방법을 제안한다. 시뮬레이션을 통하여 제안한 집전장치 제어방법의 유효성을 검증한다.

It appears that the rapid advance in technology has allowed to broaden the variety of rail systems technology, thereby fostering new business opportunity in rail industry. The direction of rail systems operations is mainly two fold. In one direction, long distance operations between mega cities are pursued with help of high speed trains under development. In the other case, relatively short distance operations for covering intra-city or suburban area are becoming popular. A good example of the latter case is light rail transit (LRT) systems. Due to the short distance operation, it is thus expected that both the development and operation cost for LRT systems be reduced to some extent. The cost reduction desired in there can be gained by scaling down the sizes of both the trains and stations as compared to those of normal rail systems. However, it is not well known how the LRT stations can be scaled down. The objective of this paper is to study on how to slim down the stations (particularly, the functions room) of LRT systems. To achieve the objective, an approach is studied based on a modified method of design structure matrix (DSM). Specifically, using the enhanced DSM method, an integrated architecture is developed for the functions room, in which equipments are housed to perform the functions of electricity, signaling, and communication for LRT stations. The use of the result indicates that the desired reduction can be obtained with the approach taken in the paper.
