연강(mile steel)은 철도차량 차체의 주요 재질로 오랫동안 사용되어 왔으며, 다양한 강도 특성과 저렴한 가격, 용이한 작업성등의 이유로 현재까지도 널리 적용되고 있다. 그러나 연강은 부식에 취약하므로 도장작업이 필수적이고, 부식에 대한 여유로 인해 판두께의 감소가 제한적이므로 경량화가 곤란하고, 정기적인 유지보수가 필요한 단점이 있다. 반면에 스테인레스강(stainless steel)판재는 내부식성이 강하므로 무도장이 가능하고, 차체의 내구 수명이 증가하며, 유지보수가 편리하다는 장점이 있다. 또한 내부식성과 고강도 특성으로 차체 판재의 두께 감소가 가능하므로 경량화에 유리하고, 차체 표면의 다양한 표면처리가 가능하므로 외관의 미려함을 높일 수 있다. 스테인레스강는 연강에 비해 상대적으로 고가의 재질이지만 유지보수 측면과 경량화에 따른 운행비용 측면에서 볼 때 철도차량 차체의 재질로서 유용성을 가지고 있어 활발히 적용되고 있다. 국내에서는 1990년대초 과천선 전동차를 시작으로 스테인레스강 철도차량이 본격적으로 개발되어 상용화되었고, 새마을호를 비롯한객차에도 스테인레스강 차체를 적용하고 있다. 국내의 스테인레스강 철도차량 제작 기술은 이제 상당한 수준에 올라와 있으며 차량의 해외 수출은 물론 기술 이전도 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 강좌에서는 스테인레스강 철도차량 차체의 특성과 함께 설계 방법을 정리하여 봄으로써, 향후 스테인레스강 철도차량 차체의 개선 및 발전을 위한 기초로 삼고자 한다.(중략)

철도차량의 루프 판넬(Roof Panel)은 폭이 약 3m, 길이가 약 20m의 초대형 외판과 하부 골조간에 2000 - 3000개의 스폿 용접건을 조작해서 작업을 해야 하는 대표적인 작업기피 공정의 하나이다. 이제까지 철도차량 제조업체에서는 대부분 스폿 용접을 사진1에서 본 바와 같이 수동조작 메니퓨레이터 등의 전용장비를 사용하여 제품 생산을 하고 있었으나 이러한 장비는 고가일뿐 아니라 수동조작으로 위치 이동 하여 모든 스폿 용접을 하여야 하므로 작업시간이 크게 소요되어 생산성이 매우 낮았 다. 본고에서는 300kg 중량물 취급용 5축 구조의 대형 로봇을 개발하여 철도차량 루프 판넬 스폿용접 작업 공정을 자동화 함으로서 생산성 및 품질을 크게 향상시킨 사례에 대하여 소개하고자 한다.

This paper evaluated applicability of railroad reference points for determinating geoid heights. For this research, reference points on the Honam express raildroad which contain ellipsoid heights estimated by GPS/Leveling and orthometric heights by leveling were used. Geoid heights were calculated uisng orthometric and ellipsoid heights of 360 railroad reference points, and the RMSE's with respect to different intervals of reference points were analysed which were induced by interpolation methods. The results showed that no significant difference of RMSE's among interpolation. methods. RMSE's of 0-4km interval of reference points were determined within 2cm and 5-8km were within 3cm. Also, this research confirmed that GPS leveling with Geoid model is not auurate enough to be used for railroad surveying as yet.

The source of wayside noise for the train are the aerodynamic noise, wheel/rail noise, and power unit noise. The major source of railway noise is the wheel/rail noise caused by the interaction between the wheels and rails. The Structure borne noise is mainly a low frequency problem. The train noise and vibration nearby the elevated railway make one specific issue. The microphone array method is used to search sound radiation characteristics of elevated structure to predict the noise propagation from an elevated railway. In this paper, the train noise and structure borne noise by train are measured. From the results, we investigated the effect on the sound absorption tunnel for elevated railway.

The superstructure type of the railway bridge in our country, is mainly classified into the box girder and the I-type girder. The box girder is widely used in the high speed railway bridge because of the safety due to dynamic behavior. The I-type girder is used in the conventional railway bridge, and is also divided into the general type and the composite type, and the newly modified types have been developed. According to the current railway bridge design code, the girder design by the span length in various railway bridge types are performed in this study. The suitable girder height by the span length are analyzed, and the comparative analysis of the structural efficiency and the economical efficiency is carried out. From this study, the composite type girder is appeared the good result in respect of the structural efficiency. However, in the economical aspect, the general I-type girder is required less cost than the other types.

In the recent railway construction, the concrete slab track is highlighted as the maintenance-free track and the main stream is moving from ballasted track to concrete slab track. However, in spite of many merits of concrete slab track, the higher noise generated from the concrete slab track is a troublesome question to solve and, by this reason, many studies on noise reduction of concrete slab track are carried out. The railway noise can be classified into the reflection noise emitted from wheel/rail contact and the structure-borne noise transmitted through railway structures. In this presentation, we would like to introduce an example of the successful reduction of structure-borne noise at track retrofitting to maintenance-free concrete slab track in elevated Changdong Station which was built with ballasted track on Rahmen structure.

The necessities of development of foundation having minimized occupying area and construction time are required for overpass in the downtown area by which bimodal tram will pass a crossway. We are studying a single column drilled pier foundation which is continuous from pier to pile foundation. Due to the increased resisting moment by reinforced steel which is ranged from the upper part of pile to lower part of column above ground, it can be possible to make a smaller pile-section and lessen the bar reinforcing. And for the excavation work is possible with smaller equipment, this foundation has a improved constructability and economical efficiency. This foundation needs smaller amount of concrete and has a small self-weight. It has an effect on improving resistance against earthquake due to improved ductility in addition to improved rigidity by interaction between concrete and steel.

The air gap between electromagnet and guiderail in an EMS-type Maglev vehicle must be maintained within an allowable deviation by controlling the voltage on the magnet. In this type of vehicle, the air gap response is strongly dependent on the structural characteristics of the elevated guideway, such as stiffness, damping and mass. For this reason, the dynamic interaction between the vehicle with electromagnets and the elevated guideway must be understood to ensure safe running. The response of the air gap to guideway characteristics such as mass, stiffness, and damping are analyzed through vehicle tests over different guideways. Through such tests, the design requirements for Maglev vehicles and elevated guideways can be established, improving levitation stability.
