When constructing a high-speed railroad, the reduction of the distance between track centers and the width of track bed will save the construction cost. However the shortening the distance between track centers may cause the stability problems due to higher wind pressure. Therefore the extensive technical review and aerodynamical study should be performed to determine the adequate distance between track centers. In this study, the impact that the increase in wind pressure due to the change of aerodynamic phenomena with the change of the distance between track centers may have on two trains passing by each other was predicted, and the stability of train operation was analyzed in order to review the distance between track centers suitable to Honam HSR trains. We conducted the parametric study of the effects of train wind on the running stability.

And we estimated the aerodynamical effects by the results of the field test.

This study summarizes basic results on the characteristics of mean wind pressure distribution on rectangular low-rise buildings with various breadths and depths through simultaneous multi-point wind pressure test. 5 types of rectangular wind pressure test models with various breadths and depths have been made for this study. Wind pressure tests are conducted on the Boundary Layer Wind Tunnel at Kumoh National Institute of Technology. The characteristics of mean wind pressure distribution with respect to various breadths and depths of low-rise buildings are analyzed into windward face, leeward face and side faces of building. From the results, new wind pressure coefficients and simplified wind load estimating formula for the resonable design of the structural frames of low-rise building were proposed.

Rolling stocks are often subjected to the effects of natural cross wind or train wind pressure due to the crossing train. These wind pressure cause the falling-off in running stability and turnover problem. It is sometimes reported that trains are blown over by a gust of wind in overseas. So, many countries enact regulations to secure the safety for wind speed. In this study, we analyzed the difference between the regulation for turnover safety of train which was enacted by Ministry of Land. Transport and Maritime Affairs and that based on the multi-body model. In case of multi-body model, it is assumed that the degrees of freedom for carbody and bogie are assigned an independent values respectively. The results show that the latter approach based on multi-body model can access the safety of turnover and replace the computational method which is accessing with lateral force, derailment coefficient and decrement of wheel load.

The effects of porous wind fence on the pressure characteristics around low-rise building model were investigated experimentally. Flow characteristics of velocities and turbulences behind wind fence were measured using hot-wire anemometer The wind fence characterize by varying the porosity of 0%, 20% and the distances from the wind fence from 1H to 9H with maintaining the uniform flow velocity of 6 m/s. we investigated the overall characterization of the low-rise building by measuring pressure seventy four on model. The effects of porosity fences varied with the porosity of the fence and measurement locations(1H-9H). The 20% porosity proved to be effective for the protection area of 1H to 3H, but the 40% porosity proved to be effective for the protection area of 4H to 6H.

After prescribing the configurations of the purposed yacht, the design of the hull form with a rudder and a keel, are schematically described. Also the determinations of the dimensions of the sail and rig are performed. Finally this paper is associated with the state-of-the-art of calculating sailing yacht performance as this is performed in velocity prediction program (VPP). The VPP results shows a typical shape of a sailing yacht and the designed yacht has the best performance at 120 degree angle of true wind with 20 knots.

The performance of Traditional Korean Fishing Boat is surveyed based on Report on Investigation of Korean Fishing Boat. The characteristics of Traditional Korean fishing Boat of hull form, rudder, sail are studied from the view point of modern sailing boat design. As a result we find her hull form is an excellent candidate of mother ship for modern boat design and the great sized rudder of Traditional Korean Fishing Boat makes a role of the centerboard of modern sailing host. And also we find the sail of Traditional Korean fishing Boat is more useful for sailing against the wind direction than an ordinary Lug sail.
