유라시아 대륙에는 다양한 궤간이 존재하고 있다. 이런 차이는 서로 다른 궤간의 접속점에서 화물을 환적하거나 혹은 차량 운행 조립체를 교환하여야 하는 등 철도수송 시스템의 운영에 많은 영향을 준다. 그러므로, 철도 수송 시스템의 효율성은 복잡한 하역 및 교환 기술에 관련된 궤간 극복 방법에 매우 의존한다. 본 논문은 대륙철도 연결을 통한 국제 화물 수송에서 발생되는 1520/1435mm 궤간차이를 극복하기 위한 철도 수송 시스템의 효율성 평가를 목적으로 하였다. 먼저 궤간 변경지점에서 현재 수행되고 있는 수송 시스템을 간략하게 설명하고, 교환 기술에 대한 사전 분석을 수행하였다. LCC 모델에 기초하여 리프트에 의한 대차교환 방식과 자동궤간가변 시스템의 효율성을 비교평가 하였다.

최근 유럽과 아시아 사이의 물류 증가는 철도수송에 있어서 사회적/경제적으로 좋은 기회이며, 동시에 커다란 도전이 될 수 있다. 유라시아 대륙에는 다양한 궤간이 존재하고 있다. 이러한 궤간의 차이는 철도에 의한 화물수송시 장애요인중의 하나이다. 궤간 차이를 극복하기 위한 방법은 수송 화물의 유형에 따라 달라질 수 있으며, 국경 지점에 보관 창고 및 환적 설비와 같은 넓은 기반 시설과 많은 운영 인력수요와 같은 철도 수송 시스템의 운영에 많은 영향을 준다. 따라서 철도 수송 시스템의 효율성은 복잡한 하역 및 교환 기술에 관련된 궤간 극복 방법에 매우 의존한다. 본 논문은 궤간 극복 방법에 대한 기술적 평가를 기반으로 수송 시나리오의 효율성을 검토하고, 각 시나리오의 운영에서 요구되는 기술적 요소들을 기술하였다.

According to Railway Safety Act, Korea Transportation Safety Authority (KOTSA) has been entrusted with 'Integrated Railway Safety Audit (IRSA) and has implemented the safety audit to the Railway operation agencies such as Korea Railway (KORAIL) and the Railway facility management organization such as the Korea Rail Network Authority (KR Network). The target of IRSA is to establish the effective rail safety management system and to raise the safety level of the Railway operation and facility agencies by checking synthetically their performance of safety duties with sincerity according to the Railway Safety Act. Even though newly introduced IRSA is conducted smoothly, it is necessary to study the methodology and criteria of the state's safety audit system. The purpose of this paper is to improve the efficiency of IRSA by the comparative research between IRSA and other similar safety audit system and to establish the consecutive improvement concept of IRSA. Second purpose is to confirm the effectiveness of IRSA by the analysis of the relationship between audit results and the safety level of the rail operation agencies.

The status and effectiveness of Bi-modal Tram is analyzed through the comparison of the transport effectiveness and operation cost between the public transportation systems (bus, light rail transit) considering the vehicle and operation characteristic of new transit system Bi-modal Tram. The standard operation schedule is established in consideration of the vehicle specification and operation characteristic of main public transportation modes, and then the annual average operation cost is estimated depending on the volume, speed, analysis length for respective public transportation mode. Through analyzing the operation cost and distribution characteristic of public transportation modes depending on the transport volume and travel speed, the operational efficiency suitable for the city is derived. It is concluded that the operational efficiency of Bi-modal Tram is superior to that of the bus and light rail transit on the aspect of travel volume and operation speed.

The railway safety sign, which is a part of railway signal system, is installed at the lineside to inform a train driver the position, direction or condition concerning the train operation by its shapes, colors or symbols. The sign in the existed line of South Korea has low-level of visibility and legibility, so that it is difficult for the drivers to understand the meaning of a sign enough by just seeing its letters or pictogram. This paper is aimed at reviewing the design problems of the sign in existed line and developing the design to enhance its visibility and legibility and verifying its effectiveness.

Currently most domestic passenger railway transportation companies are operating citizen monitor system. The citizen monitor is the system to grasp the passengers' inconvenience and proposals in depth and to collect improvement methods based on those. But the present citizen monitor system has little difference from general complaint processing system, so it is necessary to improve to correspond its original purpose. Therefore in this paper, based on my citizen monitor experience of many years and literature investigation, I will summarize present condition of the operation of citizen monitor system, grasp its problems and propose improvement point of citizen monitor system. By these improvement, the effectiveness of citizen monitor system per expense will increase, and ultimately it can be contributed to public relations and service advancement of railway operating companies.

The objective of this paper is to identify the problems of Korean inland transportation system and suggest the improvement plan for reducing the export logistics cost. The results are as follows: (1) Expansion of logistics hub facilities : Logistics hub facilities- integrated freight terminal and ICD, etc. can shorten the empty leg and reduce the logistics cost. (2) Design for CVO(Commercial Vehicle Operations) : CVO has various functions that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of freight transportation. (3) Rationalization of freight transportation industry : In particular, the deregulation of the motor freight industry and the privatization of the railway industry induce the competition among their firms and undercut the transportation rates in the long run. (4) Use of third-party logistics : The benefits of TPL are system reliability, improved customer service, and more efficient cost performance.

An urban railway power substation consists of three thyristor dual converters. Two converters are connected to up and down trolley line to supply the electric energy or feed the regenerative energy back to the distribution. When the two converters break down, the remaining converter is used in an emergency. One thyristor dual converter system (TDCS) manages the energy of two or three railway stations. If the TDCS fails, the trains stop operating. To solve the problem, this paper proposes the three parallel operation control algorithm of thyristor dual converter system using the emergency converter. The broken TDCS can be replaced by the emergency converter in other TDCS. The effectiveness of this proposed control is verified by simulation.

The types and quantities of Hazmat and Hazmat transportation are gradually increasing, keeping pace with industrialization and urbanization. At present the safety management for Hazmat transportation only considers reducing accident probability, but even when an accident involving Hazmat-carrying vehicles occurs, that is not regarded as a Hazmat-related accident if the Hazmats do not leak out from the containers carrying them. Thus the methods to reduce risk (Risk=Probability$\times$Consequence) have to be developed by incorporating accident probability and consequence. By using Geographic Information System (GIS), a technical method is invented and is automatically able to evaluate the consequence by different types of Hazmat. Thus this study analyzed the degree of risk on the links classified by the Hazmat transport pathways. In order to mitigate the degree of risk, a method of 7-step risk management on Hazmat transportation in railway industries can be suggested. (1st step: building up GIS DB, 2nd step: calculating accident probability on each link, 3rd step: calculating consequence by Hazmat types, 4th step: determination of risk, 5th step: analysis of alternative plans for mitigating the risk, 6th: measure of effectiveness against each alternative, and 7th step: action plans to be weak probability and consequence by the range recommended from ALARP). In conclusion, those 7 steps are used as a standardization method of optimum transportation routing. And to increase the efficiency of optimum transportation routing, optional route can be revise by verification.

The personal rapid transit (PRT) system is a small scale transportation system that employs a novel concept to solve the traffic congestion problem in the city area. The PRT system is a driverless on-demand system that a passenger calls a vehicle rather than waits for the vehicle. Therefore, one of the most important issues in the PRT system is how to control the vehicle with the satisfaction of the basic concept of the PRT system. In this paper a computer simulator is introduced to evaluate the vehicle. operational control algorithm of the PRT system. The. computer simulator has the commercial embedded processor boards that operate in the real time operating system and pre-designed vehicle control algorithm is coded into the processor boards. The experimental results present the effectiveness of the proposed evaluation apparatus.
