KTX 인수시험 시 차량 후미부에서 횡진동이 발생하여, 차륜의 답면구배를 1/40에서 1/20로 변경하여 횡진동 문제를 해결하였다. 그러나 차륜의 답면구배를 변경하면 차량의 임계속도 및 주행 안전성에 영향을 미치기 때문에 1/20 차륜에 대한 주행 안전성에 대한 검토 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 VAMPIRE를 이용하여 KTX 1편성 20량을 모델화하여 주행 안전성 및 임계속도를 계산하였으며, 계산결과의 타당성을 검토하기 위해서 KHST차량의 시험결과와 비교하였다. 해석결과 차륜답면이 0.3인 경우 임계속도는 375km/h이상이었으며, 차륜의 답면구배가 1/20인 경우 1/40보다 곡선 추정성이 우수한 것을 알았다. 또한 기존선 주행 시 차량의 속도향상 가능성을 파악하기 위해서 계산한 결과 직선구간에는 10%속도 향상이 가능하지만, 곡선구간에는 기존차량의 속도와 동일하게 운행하는 것이 유리하다는 것을 알았다.

Numerical simulation and experimental study to evaluate the critical speed of the railway bogie according to the tread inclination of wheel profile were conducted using 1/5 scale model. It has been shown that the results of the critical speed analysis for the scale bogie model is very close to the test results using scale bogie model and the critical speed is decreased in proportion to the increase of equivalent conicity of wheel profile. Results of this study show that the scale model could be applied to research area relating to vehicle stability as an alternative to overcome the experimental problems caused by full scale test on the roller rig.

The geometric parameters between wheel and rail change wheel/rail contact geometry characteristics, and this influence dynamic behavior of rolling stock. So, the selections of optimum geometric parameters between wheel and rail is important for planning of railway system. In this study, we have analyzed the influence of geometric parameters like wheel flange-back distance, gage, and rail inclination on the equivalent conicity relating to dynamic behavior. The analyses show the following results. The widening of wheel flange-back distanc, the decrement of gage increase the equivalent conicity and the increment of rail inclination show the sharp change of the equivalent conicity.

A design method of railway wheel profile with objective function of equivalent conicity considering wheel dimension constraint, two points contact problem between wheel and rail was proposed. New design method shows good results. New wheel profile generated from optimization process shows better dynamic performance compared with initial profile as the purpose of wheel profile design. And to verify the design method with testing the stability of new wheel profile, we conducted a critical speed test for new wheel profile using scale model applied scaling method of railway vehicle dynamics. The result of critical speed test show good agreement with that of numerical analysis. From the above results, it is seen that the design method with objective function of equivalent conicity is feasible and it could be applied to design new wheel profile efficiently.

The running safety of a railway vehicle depends on the design parameters and contact condition between wheel and rail. In this study, the effect of the conicity of wheel tread is analyzed using ADAMS/RAIL software on running situation. Modal analysis shows in 0.6 Hz natural frequency of lateral mode in fully arranged the KTX cars. The excessive vibration of the tail cars occurs in the 17th car as the speed and the stiffness of the secondary suspension increases, and especially for 1/40 conicity of the GV40 wheel. Also, the analysis shows that combination of wheel profile, GV40 for power cars and XP55 for passenger cars can reduce the lateral vibration of the tail cars.

전동차 차륜에 대한 마모 특성과 차륜의 마모가 차량 진동특성에 미치는 영향을 분석하고자 도심 곡선구간에서 운용되는 전동차를 대상으로 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 차륜답면의 마모는 차륜 원형삭정 후 주행 초기(30,000km 이하)에 차륜 치수 및 등가답면구배 변화가 심한 직립마모 특성을 보이고 있다. 시험차의 누적주행거리가 증가함에 따라 차륜의 마모가 진전되고 그에 따른 차체의 진동 수준은 증가하는 경향을 보이고 있음을 확인하였다. 차체 진동 평균은 좌우, 상하방향 모두 "양호" 수준으로 평가되고 있으나 누적주행거리 증가에 따라 증가하여 "양호" 구간의 한계치에 이르고 있다. 특히, 차체 진동 최대 값은 더욱 뚜렷한 증가 특성을 보이고 있으며, 이는 불균일한 진동발생 가능성이 커진다고 예측할 수 있다.

For the improvement of a conventional railway speed, tilting train(Tilting Train express) is under the development aiming for a maximum speed 180km/h. Compared to the existing conventional rolling-stock, tilting train could take an advantage of speed improvement about $20{\sim}30%$ on curve sections due to the improvement of cowing performance. However, this speed increasement creates a severe load at wheels, thus it is necessary to study the safety of wheel for tilting train preferentially. On the other hand, it is under consideration that the wheel for conventional railway rolling-stock at speeds of 150km/h will be applied to tilting train at speeds of 180km/h. In this paper, we have studied the strength of wheel structure, the geometrical contact characteristics, and the dynamic performance of wheel to evaluate the safety of wheel for tilting train.

Railway wheel/rail contact conditions have an influence on dynamic behavior of rolling stock. If there are problems of incompatibility between wheel and rail, damages like wheel wear, wheel spalling, rail wear, etc are occurred. Especially wheel and rail profiles are important factor of vehicle curving performance, so compatibility study between wheel and rail has to be carried out preferentially, In this study, we have analyzed the compatibility between wheel and rail of KNR conventional line to improve the maintenance efficiency of wheel and rail. Thus we showed the results relating to wheel/rail geometric contact, vehicle running performances as the change of wheel/rail combination.

The rolling-stocks on conventional line have suffered wheel problems due to the incompatibility between wheel and track condition. Especially, The 1:40 coned wheel profile's wear is very severe and these increase wheel maintenance cost. Thus we designed several arc-type wheel profiles coned 1:/20 to reduce the wheel flange wear and analyzed the dynamic performance of designed profiles. Tests carried out in service line to analyse the dynamic performance and verify the wear reduction for two cases of profiles. Test results shows the equal level of dynamic performance and the improvement of wheel flange wear compared with the conical wheel profile coned 1:40.
