The rubber wheel-type AGT has two major kinds of bogie; one is the bogie type and the other steering one. Both are important vehicular structure to support the whole running vehicle and passenger loads. This paper deals with the static analysis for the two types of bogie frame subjected to combined external forces, as well as independent ones specified in UIC 515-4. Furthermore, the dynamic analysis is performed under vibrational loading conditions so as to compare dynamic characteristics, Numerical results by using commercial packages, I-DEAS and NASTRAN show that maximum stresses do not exceed the yield strength level of material used for both bogies. From an overall viewpoint of strength, the bogie type turns out to be superior to the steering type except for the case of a lateral loading. It is also observed that the steering type shows a characteristics of low frequency behavior during a course of searching for structurally weak areas to be stiffened. The vibrational fatigue analysis for each bogie frame depends on the loading time history conditions which is applied. Time History Central Database List in the NASTRAN package. Subsequent1y, the fatigue life of bogie type is longer than the steering type.

Recently the research for lightening the railway vehicle is actively made according to the demand of the environment-friendly technology development contributing to the energy cost reduction and the green growth. The railway vehicle lightweight research is expanded to the load-supporting first structure from the secondary structure which doesn't support the load. After the composite car body development used in the Korean tilting train is completed, the composite bogie frame development in which the weight reduction efficiency is large is progressed. In this paper, distributed strain was monitored when the train load was added to the central part of the composite bogie side-frame. By using the optical fiber which was attached to the lower part of the side-frame and the developed Brillouin correlation domain analysis (BOCDA) system, the strain distribution could be measured with 3cm step over 3m section. This strain distribution was compared with the design value by the FE analysis when the load of 14ton and 18ton added. This experiment can verify the manufactured composite bogie side-frame.

Rotem Company has designed and manufactured bogie for Diesel Multiple Unit (DMU) according to the European standard UIC615-4, which si normally used for designing bogie frame. Because the countries located in Middle East do not have their own regulations for bogie design, most of running bogies in Middle East are designed by using European standard UIC615-4. UIC615-4 specifies the loads that bogie frame should withstand, indicates the way of material data to be used and the principles to be during verification by analysis and test. The bogie frame depends on the load conditions and magnitudes which are subjected to during service and characteristics of materials they are manufactured from. From the above reason, Rotem Company has performed Finite Element Analysis and load tests on the bogie frame according to UIC615-4. This research contains the results obtained by the analysis and the load tests. Also, this research verifies that the bogie frame has a static strength and fatigue strength. The analysis is carried out using I-DEAS 12 NX Series and specially designed test jigs and equipment are used for the load tests.

Recently, the design process for a railway bogie frame in Europe has been carried out according to the norm EN 13749. The activities in the norm EN shall demonstrate that the design of the bogie frame fulfills the acceptances of 4 steps of the program such as structural calculation, static tests, fatigue test and on-tracks tests. At the end of the acceptance program, the on-tracks tests have the aim to measure the real stress history generated in operation and to verify that they are reasonably next to those calculated and measured on the test rig. Therefore, in order to assure the safety of the railway vehicle, it is important to examined the durability of that under load histories measured from on-tracks tests. In this study, under variable amplitude loading based on the actual acceleration history, fatigue analysis of the welding bogie frame is investigated by using durability software. Moreover, the fatigue life of the frame under the loading in the norm EN fatigue test condition is evaluated and compared with the life under variable amplitude loading.

Automobile is in charge of most transportation system in modern urban city. However, in fact, cause of problem of road state, environment, and the other reasons, urban transit system is using as Mass Transit nowadays. Nevertheless Urban transit system is considering many kind of safety fact of that system which is increasing continuously nowadays, it occurs various train accident. This paper describes 3D Dimensional Measurement(EDM testing) and tensile testing results of carbody structure for crashed EMU(Electric Multiple Units). Tensile tests were performed on two different types of specimens in order to evaluate the strength changes before and after damages, obtained from plastic deformed area and nondeformed region of the crashed EMU. And Structural analysis of EMU was performed for the criteria of safety assessment. Structural analysis using commercial I-DEAS software provided important information on the stress distribution and load transfer mechanisms as well as the amount of damages during rolling stock crash. The testing results have been used to provide the critical information for the criteria of safety diagnosis.

본 연구에서는 2개의 질량을 갖는 1/4 차량모델을 이용하여 차량-궤도-교량간의 동적상호작용 현상을 표현하기 위해 비선형 헤르츠 접촉스프링(Nonlinear Hertzian Contact Spring)과 비선형 접촉감쇠장치(Nonlinear Contact Damper)를 도입하였다. 또한, 차량에 작용하는 하중은 차량의 중량외에 임의시간단계의 차륜재하위치인 레일답면(즉, 주행로상의 접촉면)에서의 변위가 제한조건식(Constraint Equation)으로 가해졌다. 이 변위제한조건식은 Penalty방법(Penalty Method)에 의해 구현되었으며, 해의 안정화(Stabilization)를 위한 기법과 제한조건오차보정반력(Reaction from Constraint Violation)을 도입하였다. 또한, 차량의 피칭운동을 표현하고, 다양한 차량/열차를 모형화하기 위해서 1/4 차량모델의 차체 및 대차프레임 간을 강체연결 및 핀이 있는 강체연결조건으로 모형화하였다. 시간적분방법으로는 Newmark계열의 시간적분법이 사용되었으며, 해의 정확성 확보를 위해 국지적 오차평가에 근거한 적응적시간간격기법(Adaptive Time-Stepping Scheme)을 도입하였다. 이러한 적응적시간간격기법을 도입하여 동적해석에서 시간간격의 크기를 자동적으로 결정함으로써 동적해석에서의 해의 정확성을 확보하고 시간적분에 소요되는 계산비용을 감소시킬 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
