Rail corrugation is continuously increasing due to the lack of maintenance regulations for the amount of rail irregularities. Rail corrugation is causing various problems, such as a decrease in ride comfort and an increase in the amount of track maintenance. In this paper, the effect of rail corrugation on the track force was analyzed by measuring the rail irregularities before and after rail grinding and the track measurements (dynamic wheel load, displacement, and acceleration) for the section where the rail corrugation occurred. In addition, it was experimentally proven that the rail grinding performed to reduce the corrugation of the rail was very effective in reducing the additional forces on the track.

Many railway-advanced countries are using the various types of track to reduce the track maintenance and repair cost according to the improvement of velocity. It spends on much maintenance and repair cost for ballast track due to abrasion of ballast, track irregularity and unisotropical ballast-support stiffness. The ballast track on railway bridge is accelerating the deterioration of ballast according to interaction of railway bridge and track. As continuing the deterioration, it is caused dynamic loads. Due to these effects, it increases negative loads of track and bridge. However, when designing the railway bridge, the effect of ballast track was applicate only dead load, so elastic behavior effect of ballast track is not influenced. Therefore, this paper presumes the stiffness of ballast track on railway bridge considering dynamic behavior of railway bridge, it was evaluated that effect on dynamic behaviors of railway bridge according to ballast track stiffness.

The research on the track performance and stability of the tilting-train was performed and the settlement of the roadbed was estimated as the tilting train was being operated on the rail joint under the allowable velocity subjected to the track performance and the stability of the tilting-train. Since the impact on the continuous welded rail (CWR) induced by the tilting-train loading is different from the impact on the rail joint, it needs to investigate the settlement of the roadbed beneath the CWR. In this study, when the tilting-train is being operated on the CWR under the allowable velocity subjected to the track performance and the stability of the tilting-train, the settlement and bearing capacity of the roadbed beneath the CWR have been evaluated using numerical analysis and compared with those beneath the rail joint. The numerical results show that the settlements of the roadbed beneath CWR and rail joint are amount to 71.2% and 88.8% of the allowable settlement, respectively. And the stresses are amount to 10.4% and 12.1% of the allowable bearing capacity, respectively.

The tilting-train being operated in pre-existing rail road has a different running mechanism compared to currently operated trains. Therefore, it needs to investigate the evaluation of the track performance, the stability of the tilting-train in operating condition, and the stability of the roadbed. In this study, when the tilting train is operated in the rail joint with the allowable velocity limited by the track performance and the stability of the tilting-train, the settlement of the roadbed has been evaluated by using numerical analysis. The loading on the ground surface generated by the operating tilting-train generates the settlement of the roadbed. The settlement induced by the tilting-train loading has been compared to the allowable settlement and the factor of safety defined by the ratio of the allowable settlement to the settlement generated by the applied loading is evaluated.

A trial run of locally-developed tilting train has been in process on Chungbuk line since the test vehicle was first produced. For the system stabilization, interface verification among the systems including track, structure, catenary and signaling system, not to mention the rolling stock, is very crucial. Therefore, in this study, the dynamic rail force of the tilting (Hanvit 200), high-speed (KTX) and general (Mugunghwa) vehicle caused by driving in transition curve track was measured. And, it compared the tilting response with the other by using the measured rail force data in transition curve track, and then evaluated probability the range of load fluctuation for the variable dynamic vertical and lateral wheel load. As a result, a range of rail force by occurred a change of cant from the high-speed and general vehicle which had fixed bogie structure was distributed throughout small deviation. Otherwise, in case of the tilting train which was consisted of the pendulum bogie structure was distributed wide range about large deviation by changed of cant.

저궤도위성의 정밀궤도결정은 GPS 위성과 수신기의 시계 공통오차를 제거하기 위해 이중 차분하는 방법으로 요구된 위치 정밀도를 충족시켜왔다. 그러나 빠른 속도로 지구를 회전하는 저궤도위성의 정밀궤도결정에 있어 이러한 이중 차분방법은 지구상에 광범위하게 분포된 지상 IGS 망 처리에 많은 계산 부담을 안고 있다. 그리고 지상 측지뿐만 아니라 저궤도위성을 이용한 기상관측 또는 긴급한 영상 처리 응용분야에서도 고정밀도 준실시간(Near Real Time-NRT) 처리가 요구되고 있다. 고정밀 준실시간 정밀궤도결정을 위한 대안은 이중주파수 GPS 수신기으로 IGS에서 제공되는 정밀궤도력을 갖고 고정밀 단독측위가 가능한 정밀단독측위(precise point positioning) 기법으로 상대측위와 버금가는 위치 정밀도를 얻을 수 있다. 다목적실용위성 5호는 고정밀 합성 레이더 영상 처리를 위해서 요구되는 20 cm 위성 위치 정밀도를 만족시키고, 대기 기상관측을 위해 GPS 전파 엄폐 측정값 수집을 목적으로 고정밀 이중주파수 GPS 수신기(Integrated GPS and Occultation Receiver, IGOR)를 탑재하고 있다. 이 논문에서는 IGOR의 이전 제품인 Blackjack 수신기를 탑재한 GRACE 위성의 실제 GPS 데이터를 사용하여 대략 3 ~ 5cm의 위치 정밀도를 얻었다. 준실시간 정밀궤도결정에서 정밀도 손실없이 궤도결정 처리 지연시간(latency)을 줄이는 것이 중요하다. 이 지연시간은 GPS 측정값의 양에 따라 크게 좌우되기에 GPS 측정값 샘플링 주기를 10초에서 640초까지 변화시켜가면서 정밀도를 분석한 결과, 위치 정밀도 손실없이도 궤도결정처리 지연시간을 단축시킬 수 있음을 제시하고 있다.

In this study, field measurements were performed to analyze the effects of train types (AREX, AREX Express, KTX, KTX-Sancheon) and train speeds on the dynamic behavior of the direct fixation track structure on Yeongjong grand bridge by bridge type (truss bridge, suspension bridge). Based on field measurement results, the track impact factor and train running stability (coefficient of derailment, Rate of wheel load reduction, lateral displacement of rail head) are compared with domestic and foreign standards and regulations to influence the dynamic behavior of direct fixation track. As a result, the differences in the dynamic behavior of the direct fixation tracks by the type of bridges of Yeongjong bridge are not significant, but it was analyzed that these were more directly affected by the magnitude of the train load. Therefore, it is necessary to establish the reinforcement plan of the direct fixation track structure on Yeongjong grand bridge in consideration of the increase of the track impact factor and dynamic track force.

In general, when train drives boost and traction mode, force of delivering to the track was difference between boost and traction driving mode. But, in korea, we've never performed that measure the track wheel load and lateral force while boost and traction driving. This study measured wheel load and lateral force using combination of 7200type locomotive and six freight car. And the train used single and automatic brake. The train drives boost and traction mode. In order to the difference radius of curve, we had measured at 3 point in the curve of turnout.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the cause of rail corrugation and the track force for concrete track (STEDEF) in the urban transit. From the field measurements, the dynamic wheel load, vertical displacement of sleeper and rail bending stress were measured and it was evaluated by regarding to the rail corrugation. As a result of the study, the causes of rail corrugation was experimentally proved by frequency analysis using measured dynamic wheel load data. The influence of corrugation on dynamic wheel load, rail bending stress and sleeper displacement was evaluated that the periodic irregularities of rail corrugation on the rail surface amplified the dynamic track force such as the dynamic wheel load, and thus the rail bending stress and the vertical displacement of sleeper could be increased by a maximum of 1.7 times.
