The mechanism of ballast-flying phenomena by strong wind induced by high-speed trains has extensively been investigated by conducting wind tunnel test and field-measuring of wind velocity in the vicinity of the track. The ballast gathered from the Seoul-Busan high-speed railway track has been classified by mass and shape to find relationship between those properties and the characteristic of movement in high wind and 16-channel Kiel-probe array has been used to examine the detailed flow structure above the surface of the track. The probability of ballast-flying during the passage of the high-speed train has been assessed comparing the results from wind tunnel test and that from field-measuring. The results shows that when the G7 train runs well as the KTX train runs at 300km/h, about 25m/s wind gust is induced just above the tie and the probability far small ballast under 50g to fly is about 50％ when it is on the tie. If the G7 train runs at 350km/h, the wind gust just above the tie increases to 30m/s, therefore radical countermeasure seems to be needed.

To investigate the mechanism of ballast-flying phenomena by strong wind induced by high-speed trains, wind velocity in the vicinity of the track has been measured using 16-channel Kiel-probe array and detailed flow structure near the surface of the track has been analyzed. The position at which the underflow fully develop has been examined in order to assess the driving force of the turbulent flow under train and the results yields that the turbulent flow owing to the cavity of the inter-car as well as the friction force at the underbody of the train is the main reason of the strong wind under high-speed train. The preceding wind tunnel test results has been introduced to assess the probability of ballast-flying during the passage of the high-speed train by comparing the results from field-measuring. The results shows that when the G7 train as well as the KTX train runs at 300km/h, about 25m/s wind gust is induced just above the tie and the probability for small ballast under 50g to fly is about 50% when it is on the tie. If the G7 train runs at 350km/h, the wind gust just above the tie increases to 30m/s, therefore more radical countermeasure seems to be needed.

허본 논문에서는 도상자갈 비산에 의한 GFRP 복합재 대차프레임의 구조안전성을 평가하기 위해 대차프레임의 스킨부를 구성하는 유리섬유/에폭시 적층 복합재의 충격시험과 충격 후 잔류압축시험을 수행하였다. 충격시험은 충격시험장비를 사용하여 5J, 10J, 그리고 20J의 충격에너지에 대해 수행하였고, 선로상의 도상자갈 비산을 모사하기 위해 구형, 육면체형, 그리고 원뿔형의 충격체를 설계하여 충격시험을 수행하였다. 충격손상을 갖는 적층 복합재의 잔류압축강도를 평가하기 위해 충격 후 압축시험을 수행하여 충격에 의한 재료의 물성저하 여부를 판단하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 충격에너지가 증가함에 따라 적층 복합재의 충격손상영역과 압축강도저하가 증가하는 것을 확인하였으며, 원뿔형 형상의 도상자갈이 다른 형상에 비해 재료의 손상을 가중시키는 것을 확인하였다.
