Bogie frame of the electric car is an important structural member for the support of vehicle loading. In general, more than 25 years' durability is necessary. Much study has been carried out for the prediction of the structural integrity of the bogie frame in experimental and theoretical domains. One of the useful methods is reliability-based approach. The objective of this paper is to estimate the structural integrity of the bogie frame of an electric car, which is under the running test. We used two approachs. In the first approach probabilistic distribution of S-N curve is used. In the second approach, limit state function is used.

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.

This paper has evaluated the fatigue strength of a tilting bogie frame for the Korean tilting train. We have established the loading combinations for the tilting bogie frame based on the UIC standard because there are no standards for the tilting train. For this study, we have derived 31 load cases to consider tilting effect. Then, we have performed the static and fatigue analysis. From this study, we can make sure the safety of the tilting bogie.

Generally, bogie frame for EMU consists of side frame, crossbeam and transom. Among the main frame structure which has been produced in our company, crossbeam and transom have been made of circular shaped tube. In this un, welding process between circular crossbeam and circular transom is complicated and takes much time. To improve this problem, new rectangular tube shaped transom is adopted. In this paper, the processes and results of finite element analysis are described, which was carried out to evaluate the strength of new bogie frame according to UIC, JIS, KS code. FEA results show that the new bogie frame has sufficient static and fatigue strength. Comparing the FEA results with load test results should follow and further study for evaluating the fatigue strength will be pursued in future.

This paper presents a strength evaluation of a tilling bogie frame for the Korean tilting train, The tilting bogies of the tilting train are subjected to different loading conditions compared with the bogie of the conventional railway vehicles because of the carboloy tilting on curves. We classified the load cases as two categories such as non-tilting case and tilting case. For the two categories. we have carried out structural analysis of the bogie frame to evaluate the strength of the frame. And then, we modified the shape and thickness for the weak areas of the bogie frame to ensure structural safety.

Nowadays, traffic congestion is emerging as a major problem due to the rapid population growth and the increase in automobiles. The train is a convenient means of transportation that can efficiently solve these problems. Trains have been developed in line with human aspirations for a long time, but research on safety is still insufficient. This study aims to check safety by conducting static tests and fatigue tests on bogie frames, and to help develop bogie frames in the future. For the static test, a strain gauge was attached to the point where the local stress concentration was expected beforehand, and the result value was derived, compared with existing theories, and expressed as a Goodman diagram. In the fatigue test, a total of 10 million loads were applied over three stages, and no cracks appeared in the non-destructive test conducted after each stage. Both tests were conducted according to the strict test method of the bogie frame presented by the UIC Code. It satisfied both fatigue life and strength evaluation criteria and was judged to be a bogie frame usable for safe train production.

A bogie frame of welded type have some problems. Some end beam has cracked. The cracks have profound influence on the safe freight service. The bogie consists of a frame, suspensions, brakes and wheel sets. Various analyses including a numerical simulation using a finite element method, a static load test, a fatigue test, and running test should be carried out to design the bogie. However cracks have been found at some end beams of the bogies mounted on the freight cars running with the high speed. The cracks of the end beam results in deterioration of the brake performance and the running safety. Numerical simulations and dynamic tests are carried out to figure out the causes of cracks in the existing bogie, and the vibrational characteristics of the improved bogie are compared with those of the conventional one. In this reports, the vibration characteristics were dealed with the most pressing matters for the solution of the end beam crack.

A bogie frame is typical safty part of railway vehicle. Main performance of a bogie frame is to support a car body and passenger weight and transfer traction and braking force. This paper is to evaluate the static strength and fatigue strength for the end trailer bogie with UIC 615-4 code. Therefore stress analysis of the end trailer bogie frame has been performed for various loading condition according to the UIC 615-4 code and haigh diagram is used for evaluation of fatigue strength. By the results of these analysis, static and fatigue strength of the end trailer bogie is satisfied with a applied criterion.

본 논문은 국내에서 개발중인 모노레일 대차 프레임에 대해 구조 안전성 및 피로강도를 평가하였다. 현재 모노레일 대차 프레임에 대한 평가기준은 없는 실정이며, 이에 구조 안전성 및 피로강도 평가는 유럽규격인 UIC 615-4 기준을 적용하여 수행하였다. 이때, 설계된 대차 프레임에 대해 각 하중조건에서의 변위 및 Von-Mises 응력 결과를 통해 구조 안전성을 평가하였다. 그리고 피로강도는 UIC 615-4 기준의 규정에 따라 조합 주 운용하중조건에 의해 평가되고, 일괄처리 기능을 갖는 winLIFE v3.1을 이용한 피로해석 결과와 비교 검증하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 설계된 대차 프레임은 구조적 안전성 및 피로강도를 만족하였으며, 일괄처리 기능을 갖는 피로해석은 조합하중을 이용한 기존 피로해석보다 더 효율적임을 확인하였다.

The bogie of high speed freight car running on conventional line is welded bogie modeled on Y25 bogie developed in Europe. Y25 bogie has speed limit of 110km/h. But it has limiting factors to speed-up as increasing maintenance cost and friction parts pedestal. And also it was reported that cracks are found in the parts where center beam meet bolster and endbeam near bracket for braking part. This study includes stress analysis improved structure of welded bogie for strength evaluation by numerical method and experimental method. According to the study, new configuration bogie shows improvement in strength.
