The reduction unit is one of the most important components in railway cars, due to the transmission of torque from the motor to the wheels. Faulty reduction gears in high-speed trains result from excessive wear on the gear or damage to the gear. These types of gear defects have a significant effect on high-speed rail operation and safety; thus, a diagnosis system for the reduction unit is needed. Vibration diagnosis technology is one of the most effective diagnostics. In this paper, the vibration parameters of a reduction unit were evaluated during a driving-gear test and a full-vehicle test, using kurtosis and the crest factor. These tests were performed under normal operating conditions; a specimen tester was used to diagnose problems in defective gears.

This paper presents the development of a condition monitoring system that monitors the operating conditions of a reduction unit, such as the bearing temperature, gearbox vibration, and gear oil deterioration, and notifies the operator of potential problems or abnormal conditions. A series of field tests on high-speed rail and conventional lines was performed to identify the characteristics of temperature rise and vibration levels on the reduction unit during operation. The monitoring system was designed based on the proper sensor selection, measurement method, and signal analysis to optimize the interface with the operating system of high-speed trains. Application of this monitoring system to high-speed trains will play an important role in their proper maintenance and safe operation.

An integrated analytical model which should have essential dynamics on the longitudinal railway vehicle is developed. The model consists of translational movement, rotational movement, brake actuator, adhesion force between rail and wheel, and brake friction force between wheel and pad. Thus, during the deceleration for stopping, a feedback controller controlling the brake cylinder pressure is designed to improve ride quality and to release friction problems. Through the developed model, the feasibility of controlling the cylinder pressure is verified for the better performances during braking.

Electric vehicle that is manufactured present by development of electric vehicle technology were available automatic driving. Control of air breaking system for precision stopping is important at automatic driving. Current Electric vehicle is doing precision stopping using braking force control. Braking force control is difficult to take static deceleration by rail condition or change of friction coefficient. Therefore, Proposed the controller in this study is deceleration controller. Designed controller is a robust controller that take state control characteristic for modelling error.

A case of the axle gear box which was one of tile power transmission components of high speed train was supported by the bearings installed in axle and the reaction arm connected in bogie frame. Structural analyses of this case were executed for investigation the application of aluminum for weight reduction. The evaluations of the material strength, the thermal strength and deformation, and the stability of natural vibration were carried out according to computer simulation. It was found out that the steel case was safe from the structural failure. For the aluminum case, there was no worry about the vibration resonance and the static failure, but some efforts to reduce tile deformation of the bearing mounting part.

KTX decelerator is a device to fulfil a role of transmission of turning force to reduction device of an axle by serrate device. Currently, KTX decelerator's TBO(Time Between Overhaul) has 3 years cycle. As for the dissembly maintenance of a device, its maintenance is conducted every 1.4M kms. In this study, since opening of KTX, we analyzed reliability, maintainability, availability of KTX decelerator by researching historical records of maintenance of the decelerator, and based on above data, investigated whether its TBO cycle and maintenance works properly or not And we considered maintenance policies of KTX decelerator to improve efficiency in maintenance in the future.

For weight reduction of the gearbox of power bogie of high speed train, aluminum alloy is recommended for the material of the gerabox case. In this paper, three models(Steel G/B Case-Steel BRG. Case[model-S], Aluminum G/B Case-Aluminum BRG. Case[model-A], Aluminum G/B Case-Steel BRG. Case[model-AS]) were compared to each other in the view of thermal expansion. The evaluation of the internal load, thermal expansion deformation and lug analysis were executed. It results that the 'model-A' is excessively deformed and fail in the bolt hole of bearing case. Material change of the bearing case to steel(model-AS) is effective to restrain the deformation of the inner radios of the bearing case and to prevent the failure of that.

A bi-modal tram has been developing to consist of articulated-two cars propelled by CNG hybrid (series type) in Korea since 2003. All wheels are driven by electrical motors independently, which can eliminate differential gears to reduce turning radius and make low floor to provide the old and the handicapped with easy access. In the bi-modal tram, therefore, reduction gear unit is key technology to make low floor and drive wheels independently. This study was aimed at performance evaluations of the reduction gear unit for the bi-modal tram. Oil leakage, oil temperature, vibration, acoustic noise in idle operations were measured for the reduction gear unit of the bimodal tram.

고속철도차량 동력대차의 1차 구동장치는 모터 감속기와 견인전동기로 구성한다. 모터 감속기와 견인전동기는 기계적으로 일체형 결합 구조이지만, 상이한 기술 요구사항으로 인하여 이들의 완전 분해정비 주기는 서로 다르다(모터 감속기의 완전 분해정비 주기: $1.8{\times}10^6km$, 견인전동기의 완전 분해정비 주기: $2.5{\times}10^6km$). 따라서 불필요한 정비 횟수를 감소하기 위하여 신뢰성 중심 유지보수 관점에서 최적의 완전 분해정비 주기의 산정이 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 실제 유지보수 정비이력으로부터 두 구성품들에 대한 고장 결함나무 분석을 수행하고 각 하부부품들의 치명도를 고려한 고장률을 각각 평가하였다. 두 구성품에 대한 최적의 동일한 완전분해 정비주기는 기존의 총 예방정비 비용을 감소하기 위하여 유전자 알고리즘으로 부터 얻었다. 이 알고리즘에서 각 개체를 구성하는 유전자는 최소 예방 정비주기이며, 이의 조합으로 구성된 세대별 개체의 적합도함수는 총 정비비용의 역수로 공식화하여 얻는다. 최소공배수에 의한 방법은 기존 대비 4%만 감소하지만, 유전자 알고리즘에 의한 최적의 동일 완전분해 정비주기는 225만km로서 기존 방법의 총비용과 비교하여 약 14% 감소하였다.

전동차용 견인전동기 시스템은 저항 및 쵸퍼 제어에 의한 직류 전동기 방식에서 인버터 제어에 의한 유도전동기 방식으로 발전하였다. 오늘날 유도전동기 기술은 어느 정도 성숙기에 접어들었지만 최근에는 소음제거, 효율 극대화 및 유지보수 비용 절감 등의 이점이 있는 감속기를 제거한 직접 구동용 영구자석 전동기가 새로이 각광받고 있다. 특히 기계적으로 견고한 매입형 영구자석 동기전동기는 출력/토크 밀도가 높고 약계자 제어성이 우수하며 고효율 운전이 가능하다. 본 논문은 자기적 포화특성이 심한 영구자석 전동기를 대상으로 고급화된 비선형 수치해석 기법을 적용하여 설계된 전동기의 특성해석을 나타낸다.
