When the railway vehicle passing through curves & transitions, the running speed must improve by proposing the practical standard about maximum running possibility speed of each section on existing line considering running safety. In this paper, when the railway vehicle passing through curves of actual track conditions (Namsunghyun-Chungdo up & down lines), the effect that has influence on running safety is examined to devise the high speed of vehicle which passing through curves which risk of derailment is high. The running safety analysis is performed that running speed by curve radius improves 5-20% compared with existing speed under actual track conditions. In result of the running safety analysis, in case the speed condition is fewer than 15% compared with existing speed, the derailment coefficient and unloading ratio are within acceptable level. so we could confirm possibility of speed improvement on the whole Namsunghyun-Chungdo up & down lines.

In this paper, we propose a customized genetic algorithm (GA) to find the minimum-cost guideway network (GN) of personal rapid transit (PRT) subject to connectivity, reliability, and traffic capacity constraints. PRT is a novel transportation concept, where a number of automated taxi-sized vehicles run on an elevated GN. One of the most important problems regarding PRT is how to design its GN topology for given station locations and the associated inter-station traffic demands. We model the GN as a directed graph, where its cost, connectivity, reliability, and node traffics are formulated. Based on this formulation, we develop the GA with special genetic operators well suited for the GN design problem. Such operators include steady state selection, repair algorithm, and directed mutation. We perform numerical experiments to determine the adequate GA parameters and compare its performance to other optimization algorithms previously reported. The experimental results verify the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach for the GN design problem having up to 210 links.

In the frequency range where the magnetostatic surface wave may be excited, the edge singularity of a microstrip line having a farrite layer is calculated by using the method proposed by Meixner. From the calculated edge singularity, the change of the current distribution near the edge to which the magnetostatic surface wave propagates is steeper than that near the other edge. And the edge conditions vary with frequency. These results agree with the previous numerical results.

This paper proposes new dual-band impedance transformers based on the L-section circuit topology. The proposed circuits consist of a transmission line section with a stub line either at the source or at the load end. The dual-band operating conditions are analyzed in detail and simple design equations are derived in terms of the line lengths and impedances for the different circuit topologies and load conditions. The dual-band operation is confirmed through the design, fabrication and measurement in microstrip circuits based on the proposed method.

The bogie, when run on the twist track develops the wheel off-loading factor. This will be comfirmed by testing under different loading conditions and air springs inflated and deflated in all conditions. Under the most extreme twist track condition, EMU (Electrical Multiple Unit) shall not over the wheel off-loading requirement 60% defined on UIC / ORE report. This paper describes the wheel off-loading test procedure according to UIC / ORE and test result of DMRC EMU of INDIA carried out to find out to meet the requirement defined in UIC / ORE.

An optimal design technique is used as a systematic approach to analyze the worst case of a circulating type ropeway for a given geometry and operating conditions. Worst case is meant here the case when the positions and weights of the cars are so conditioned that the minimum of all the reaction forces between the main rope and the towers is minimum. In the course of this study, a general theory for the deflections and tensions of the main rope were also derived taking into account of the variation of the weights and positions of the individual cars. And through an analysis of example ropeways, some general conditions for the worst case are deduced.

Technical requirements associated with derailment to ensure running safety of train are discussed. By using estimated derailment coefficient ratio, interaction of various parameters such as operation velocity, curve radius, cant, track irregularity, suspension stiffness and static wheel load ratio are analyzed to enhance derailment safety. Sensitivity analysis in terms of pattern and passage speed of curve is performed by using rolling stock and track conditions associated with SMRT Line No. 5.

모든 설비에는 안전과 설비보호를 목적으로 전기적, 기계적으로 조건이 만족되지 않으면 이후 동작을 금지시키는 장치를 구비하는데 이를 "인터록 장치"라 한다. 일부 인터록장치가 미 구비된 선로에서 근무자의 착오로 사활여부를 판단하지 못하여 활선선로에 접지를 시행하여 대형사고로 이어졌으며 이를 방지하기 위하여 인터록 장치의 설치가 중요하게 대두 되었다. 그러나 송전선로로 연결된 원거리에 있는 설비간의 인터록 구성은 매우 어려운 상황이다 특히 선로의 사활여부를 판단하는 요소는 직접적인 전압을 측정하는 방법이 일반적으로 사용되고 있으나 용도에 비하여 설비구축을 위한 투자비가 과다함에 따라 간편하고 신뢰성이 우수한 인터록 장치를 개발, 적용하였다. 기존의 직접 또는 간접 전압측정 방법에서 상대단 변전소의 단로기 및 접지개폐기 접점상태에 대하여 통신회선을 이용 상호 확인하고 인터록을 구성한 연구이다.

본 논문은 고정폐색구간에서 차량운전 특성과 속도패턴이 다양한 다종의 열차들이 동일선로에서 복합되어 고밀도 운행을 위한 방법으로, 신호현시에 대한 제반정보를 차상으로 전송 받아 기관실 신호표시반에 신호를 현시 하는 차상신호방식(Cab Signalling System)중에서, 선행열차의 위치, 선로조건 등 지상의 상태정보를 후속열차가 수신하여 열차 자신의 제동특성 등 차량정보와 비교 분석하여 제동거리를 계산하는 distance to go 방식으로 열차운전속도를 제어하는 ATP (Automatic Train Protection) 시스템을 제안하였다. 폐색구간별 고정된 신호속도단계가 부여되는 ATC(Automatic Train Control) 시스템에서는 운행패턴이 같은 단일차종의 열차만 운행하는 구간에서는 일정속도에 의한 폐색구간 분할로 구간내 distance to go 신호체계가 이루어지지만, 차종과 속도패턴이 서로 상이한 복합열차들의 운행구간에서는 안전거리 확보를 위하여 저속열차의 제동거리를 기준으로 폐색구간 분할 및 속도결정이 이루어지므로 ATP 방식보다 운행효율이 다소 떨어짐을 알 수 있었다. 이를 차량특성과 속도패턴이 다른 3개의 열차를 모델로 하여 열차별 감속도에 의한 제동특성을 ATC와 ATP 신호제어체계에 접목시켜 시뮬레이션을 하였다.

A, B 변전소간에 345kV 지중선로 4회선으로 Loop 운전 중 1개의 지중선로에 절연파괴 고장이 발생하였으며, 이때 4개의 지중송전선로가 모두 운전정지 되는 고장이 발생하였다. 고장이 발생한 선로는 정상적으로 보호계전기가 동작하였으나, 그 외 다른 선로의 보호계전기가 오동작하여 원인규명시험을 한 결과 외부고장시 CT 포화로 인해 보호계전기가 자단고장으로 인식하여 동작된 것으로 분석되었다. 본 논문에서는 CT 포화와 관련하여 DC성분, Surge, 2차 부담 등 여러가지 조건에 대하여 고찰함으로서 향후 전력계통의 다양한 고장에 대비하는데 도움이 되기를 기대한다.
