최근 철도는 다양한 분야에서 사용됨에 따라 그 중요성이 점차 증가하고 있다. 따라서 철도의 안전한 주행을 위하여 철도를 구성하는 요소 관리 역시 중요하다. 철도를 구성하는 요소 중 열차의 진행 방향을 결정하는 선로전환기의 비정상 상황 탐지는 열차의 탈선 등과 같은 대형 사고를 예방하기 위해 매우 중요한 문제이다. 본 논문에서는 Fast Shapelets 알고리즘을 이용하여 선로전환기의 전류 패턴을 분류할 수 있는 방법을 제안한다. 실험 결과, Fast Shapelets 알고리즘을 이용하여 선로전환기의 전류 패턴들을 자동으로 분류할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In railway system, the first step of safety managements is the identification of current safety level. Among many safety indexes, risk concept is the prevailing and most effective one in many developed countries for the safety management. But many requirements such as, accident classification rule, risk levels or broadly acceptable regions, safety cost benefit analysis, VPF, equivalent fatality and failure database are needed for the application of risk concept in railway. Basic requirements for the application of risk concept on railway safety improvements are derived in this study.

For the safety management of tunnel, effective measurements should be continuously carried out. Most of sensors currently being applied for tunnels measure only the local status, thus many of them are needed to monitor an entire tunnel. For the railway tunnel where trains of same conditions are regularly operated, dynamic responses of tunnel structure to train operations can be a good index to estimate the deformation of tunnel structure in wide area. Meanwhile, the electromagnetic interference caused by overhead centenary in railway tunnel obstructs the use of electric-based sensors. In this study a brand new accelerometer using FBG optical fiber sensors is developed to solve these problems. Sensitivity and capacity of the accelerometer are enhanced with effective structural design of its components and verified with laboratory tests. A case history where the developed accelerometers were applied to a safety monitoring system of a high-speed train tunnel is presented. The performances of the developed accelerometers are validated from the measured acceleration data.

The recent development of USN (Ubiquitous Sensor Network) technology has broadened its applications to many fields of industry. The USN technology enables the system to monitor and control the status of distributed sensor nodes based on the low-powered communications. Applying the USN in the train control domain, the operational efficiency can be enhanced, where the reliability and the safety of the system are the key challenges. This paper suggests the system design for evaluating and improving the reliability and safety of the gateway, which is a USN component that manages the radio network among the sensors and collects the information from them. For this purpose, the reliability and the level of safety integrity of a general gateway have been predicted quantitatively and the supplementary design has been proposed for the selected week points. The verification on the reliability and the safety of the improved gateway according to the related standards has been followed. With the results of the study, the applicability of USN gateway for train control systems has been reviewed.

The existing middle-long span railway bridge has been mainly applied to steel box girder bridges. However, the steel box girder bridges have disadvantages in securing the space under the bridge, and the main girder is made of a thin plate box shape, resulting in a ringing noise due to the vibration. Many complaints about noise have been raised. For this reason, there is a need for the development of long railway bridges that can replace steel box girder bridges. In this paper, the characteristics of the steel composite railway bridge currently developed were introduced and a time history analysis was conducted using MIDAS Civil reflecting the speed of KTX load for 40m and 50m bridges. In addition, from the analysis results, the dynamic behavior of target bridges were verified and it was examined whether they meet the dynamic performance criteria proposed in the railway design standards. As a result, all of the bridges under review satisfied the dynamic safety criteria, however, in case of 40m of span, the vertical acceleration value was very large. In order to solve this problem, authors proposed the improvement plan and corrected the cross section to confirm that the vertical acceleration decreased.

The Spatial Image contents of Geomorphology 3-D environment is focused by the requirement and importance in the fields such as, national land development plan, telecommunication facility management, railway construction, general construction engineering, Ubiquitous city development, safety and disaster prevention engineering. The currently used DEM system using contour lines, which embodies geographic information based on the 2-D digital maps and facility information has limitation in implementation in reproducing the 3-D spatial city. Moreover, this method often neglects the altitude of the rail way infrastructure which has narrow width and long length. There it is needed to apply laser measurement technique in the spatial target object to obtain accuracy. Currently, the LiDAR data which combines the laser measurement skill and GPS has been introduced to obtain high resolution accuracy in the altitude measurement. In this paper, we tested of the railway facilities using laser surveying system, then we propose data a generation of spatial images for the optimal manage and synthesis of railway facility system in our 3-D spatial terrain information. For this object, LiDAR based height data transformed to DEM, and the realtime unification of the vector via digital image mapping and raster via exactness evaluation is transformed to make it possible to trace the model of generated 3-dimensional railway model with long distance for 3D tract model generation. As the results, We confirmed the solutions of varieties application for railway facilities management using 3-D spatial image contents.

All the systems can be used properly for the original purpose when they can make the functions required for the users be concrete. Especially in the case that many technical systems are integrated like railroad systems, physically useful systems could be built if requirements analyses applying systems engineering and the process of functional design had to be supported. This paper is intended to review and present the measures and procedures to correctly supply the systems to users by giving systems manufactures and suppliers requirements in order to supply safe systems using safety analysis techniques named FHA(Functional Hazard Analysis) and Hazop Study.

The majority of high-speed railway bridges along the domestic Gyeongbu and Honam lines feature a PSC-box type structure with a span length ranging from 35 to 40m, which typically exhibits a first bending natural frequency of approximately 4 to 5Hz. When KTX high-speed trains transverse these bridges at speeds ranging from 290 to 310km/h, the vibration induced by the trains approaches the first bending natural frequency of the bridge. Furthermore, with the upcoming operation of a EMU-320 high-speed train and the anticipated increase in the speeds of these high-speed trains, there is a need to analyze the dynamic response of high-speed railway bridges. For this, based on measured responses from actual railway bridges, a numerical model was constructed using a numerical model updating technique. The dynamic response of the updated numerical model exhibited a strong agreement with the measured response from the actual railway bridges. Subsequently, this updated model was utilized to analyze the dynamic response characteristics of the bridges when KTX and EMU-320 trains operate at increased speeds. The maximum vertical displacement and acceleration at the mid-span of the bridges were also compared to those specified in the railway design standard with the increasing speed of KTX and EMU-320.

As the Rope Type Platform Safety Door (RPSD) is now commercially available, the technology of RSPD and the public sentiment towards RPSD are being scrutinized. During the period of RPSD development and trial installation, there has been a need to examine its technical reliability and safety, and its users' emotional attitudes. Though often dichotomized in practice, technological innovation of, and the public sentiment towards RPSD are directly related to continuing and collaborated efforts to enhance public satisfaction with the service. Therefore, based on the analyses of public sentiment towards the RPSD system and the log files of operation, this study evaluates public satisfaction with RPSD during its trial phase at Munyang Station in the Daegu Subway System.
