This paper has investigated the strength of the bogie frame for the Korean tilting train that is being developed in KRRI. In this study, the loading conditions imposed on the bogie frame of tilting train were derived and the static and fatigue strength of the bogie frame has been evaluated. In order to achieve these goals, finite element analysis has been performed and the stress concentration areas were investigated. Based on the analytical results, the static load tests were conducted under the nontilting load conditions and the tilting load conditions. The test results were used to evaluate the fatigue strength of the bogie frame by Goodman diagram.

This paper has performed fatigue and nondestructive test of bogie frame for Korean tilting train. Before the fatigue test, static tests were carried out. From the test, the structural safety was investigated using Goodman diagram. After the static test, the fatigue test were conducted under tilting load conditions. The fatigue test was conducted for $10{\times}10^6$ cycles. During the fatigue test, the nondestructive tests using magnetic particle and liquid penetrant were performed at $6{\times}10^6$ cycle and $10{\times}10^6$cycle. From the crack detection tests, it was known that there was no fatigue crack in the bogie frame.

This paper investigated strength of a bogie frame for Korean tilting train that is being developed in KRRI. In this study, static load tests based on Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) were performed. In order to simulate vertical and lateral components generated by tilting link mechanism, four hydraulic actuators were used. The eight load cases such as vertical, lateral, traction, braking and driving gear loads were applied for evaluation of the strength of bogie frame. The stresses measured at the stress concentration points were assessed using Goodman diagram. From the experimental results, structural safety of the bogie frame could be ensured.
