When constructing a high-speed railroad, the reduction of the distance between track centers and the width of track bed will save the construction cost. However the shortening the distance between track centers may cause the stability problems due to higher wind pressure. Therefore the extensive technical review and aerodynamical study should be performed to determine the adequate distance between track centers. In this study, the impact that the increase in wind pressure due to the change of aerodynamic phenomena with the change of the distance between track centers may have on two trains passing by each other was predicted, and the stability of train operation was analyzed in order to review the distance between track centers suitable to Honam HSR trains. And we estimated the aerodynamical effects by the results of the real train experiments.

This paper discusses the lateral behavior of group pile in homogeneous and non- homogeneous (two layered) soil. In the group pile, the model tests were to investigate the effects on spacing-to-diameter ratio of pile, pile array, ratio of pile spacing, constraint condition of pile tip, eccentric load and ground condition. The group efficiency and lateral deflection induced in active piles were found to be highly dependent on the spacing-to-diameter ratio of pile, number of pile. Lateral bearing capacities in the group piles of fixed tip, in the case of 6D spacing and $3\times3$ array, were 40-100% higher than those in the group pile of free tip. Based on the results obtained, a spacing-to-diameter of 6.0 seems to be large enough to eliminate the group effect for the case of relative density of 61.8% and 32.8%, and then each pile in such a case behaves essentially the same as a single pile. However, in the case of dense sand, it can be estimated that a spacing-to-diameter of 8.0 seems to be large enough to eliminate the group effect. In this study the group efficiency is illustrated in experimental function with spacing-to-diameter, S/D, relative density and number of pile. The distribution of shear force in lead row piles, in the case of 3$\times$3 array group pile, was 41.6-52.4% for 3D spacing and 34-40% for 6D spacing, respectively. The shadowing effect for the parallel direction of lateral loading appears to be more significant than the one for the perpendicular direction of lateral loading.

팁 간격의 크기가 냉각탑용 축류팬의 성능과 누설 유동에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해서 서로 다른 2가지 팁 간격을 가진 경우에 대해서 점성유동을 해석하였다. 케이싱 내에서 작동하는 축류팬 주위의 유동을 연속방정식, Navier-Stokes 방정식 등을 지배방정식으로 사용하여 수치해석 하였다. 난류유동에 나타나는 레이놀즈 응력은 ${\kappa}-{\epsilon}$ 난류모델을 사용하여 계산하였다. 전체적으로 H형 격자계를 사용하였으며, 팁 주위의 유동을 해석하기 위해서 팁 영역 주위에 부분적으로 조밀한 격자를 두었다. 팁 간격이 증가하면 누설 유동의 증가로 인한 유동 손실의 증가로 전압상승과 수력효율이 감소하였다. 팬 직경에 대한 팁 간격이 0.4%에서 1.0%로 증가하면 전압상승 값이 약 10% 정도 감소하였으며, 수력효율은 약 3% 정도 감소하였다. 팁 간격이 팁 근처 날개 주위의 압력에 미치는 영향을 보면, 팁 간격이 증가하여 누설 유동이 증가하면 흡입면과 압력면의 압력차가 전연 부근에서 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 누설 와류의 중심은 코드를 따라서 흡입면으로 부터 떨어져 나가면서 형성됨을 알 수 있었다. 누설 와류의 위치를 보면 팁 간격이 증가하면 와류 중심의 위치가 흡입면 쪽으로 이동하고, 흡입면에서 떨어진 거리도 날개 후반부에서 증가 폭이 커지는 포물선 형태로 증가함을 알 수 있었다.

등간격 접지Grid의 설계에서는 대부분의 전류가 외곽접지도체로 누설되어 Grid 구석 접촉전압이 중심 접촉전압 보다 높아지는 문제점이 있다. 비등간격 접지Grid의 설계는 이러한 문제점을 극복할 수 있으나 적절한 비등간격 접지Grid의 설계방법이나 간격결정 방법은 논의되고 있지 않다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 비등간격 접지Grid의 장점, 수식, 최적의 간격비율을 제시한다.

In 1977, spent fuel storage capacity of Ko-Ri Unit 1 was raised to contain 4-2/3 core, by reducing the center-to-center spacing between fuel assemblies from 53.34cm to 36cm. In this paper the adequacy is discussed in detail by examining the previous design analysis report. According to the analytic method presented by Core Performance Branch, study on credible abnormal moderator density condition is performed by using KENO-IV for the redesigned spent fuel storage facility. Result shows that 36cm for the center-to-center spacing between fuel assemblies is not enough to keep the storage safe at water density of 0.1143g/㎤, which gives the maximum $K_{eff}$ 0.9958$\pm$0.0048, which exceeds the CPB regulation limit 0.98. From sensitivity study regarding to the center-to-center spacing, it should be maintained to space greater than 43cm in order to meet the CPB requirements.s.

Train control systems have changed from wayside electricity-centric to onboard communications-centric. The latest train control system, the CBTC system, has high efficiency for interval control based on two-way radio communications between the onboard and wayside systems. However, since the wayside system is the center of control, the number of input trains to allow a wayside system is limited, and due to the cyclic-path control flows between onboard and wayside systems, headway improvement is limited. In this paper, we propose a train interval-control and train-centric distributed interlocking algorithm for an autonomous train-driving control system. Because an autonomous train-driving control system performs interval and branch control onboard, both tracks and switches are shared resources as well as semaphore elements. The proposed autonomous train-driving control performs train interval control via direct communication between trains or between trains and track-side apparatus, instead of relying on control commands from ground control systems. The proposed interlocking algorithm newly defines the semaphore scheme using a unique key for the shared resource, and a switch that is not accessed at the same time by the interlocking system within each train. The simulated results show the proposed autonomous train-driving control system improves interval control performance, and safe train control is possible with a simplified interlocking algorithm by comparing the proposed train-centric distributed interlocking algorithm and various types of interlock logic performed in existing interlocking systems.

우리나라 비신호 교차로의 운영방법은 미국과는 다르게 대부분 완전 비제어식 운영(Totally Uncontrol)방법으로 되어있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 비신호 교차로들 중 미국 HCM의 TWSC 교차로에 관한 분석방법이 적용 가능하다고 판단되는 비신호 교차로들을 대상으로 임계간격과 추종시간의 기준을 분석하였다. 본 연구에서는 수도권을 중심으로 총 11개의 4-지 비신호 교차로들을 대상으로 이동류별, 차량의 종류별에 따른 차량들의 임계간격과 추종시간을 조사 및 분석하였다. 그 결과 임계간격은 3.8초 - 5.4 초로 나타났으며, 추종시간은 2.4초- 2.7초 범위를 나타내었다. 또한, 임계간격의 경우 차량의 종류별에 따른 차이는 나타나지 않았으나, 이동류별로는 차이를 나타내었다. 이에 반하여, 추종시간은 이동류별에 따른 차이가 없으며, 차량의 종류별에 따라 차이가 존재하는 것으로 분석되었다. 본 연구의 분석 결과인 임계간격과 추종시간의 기준치를 국외 나라들의 연구결과와 비교 분석한 결과는 국외보다 낮게 분석되었으며, 이는 우리나라와 국외의 운전자 운전특성과 비신호 교차로의 운영방식의 차이에서 나타난 결과로 판단된다. 본 연구에서 제안한 임계간격과 추종시간의 기준은 수도권 지역의 4-지 비신호 교차로들 중 주도로와 부도로의 교통량과 속도 등의 현저한 차이가 있는 교차로 분석시 이 기준으로 적용할 수 있고, 우리 나라의 TWSC 방법을 갖는 비신호 교차로에 관한 용량과 지체시간의 이론적 모형 개발과 용량 및 지체시간의 분석을 위한 기초 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
