This paper describes on aerodynamic characteristics of pantograph system for Next generation high speed train(HEMU-400). The pantograph which supports electric power is located on the roof. Because of this, it generate high drag, severe acoustic noise and vibration which induced unstable flow due to complex configuration. Therefore, the design of high efficient pantograph needs to increase operational speed. In this research, wind tunnel tests were performed to design a high efficient pantograph system using 1/4 scaled model which were KTX-II pantograph, single arm pantograph and periscope type pantograph with square cylinder shape panhead and optimized shape panhead. For real operational condition, flow directions were adapted by rotation of pantograph. From this results of wind tunnel, it is checked that the pantograph with optimized panhead and single arm type or periscope type has better aerodynamic performance. In addition, lift control device and spoiler in pantograph were tested to investigate the validity of application.

The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle has a high fuel economy and can be driven long distances. Its different modes include the electric vehicle, hybrid electric vehicle, and only engine operating mode. A power management strategy is important to determine which mode should be selected. The strategy makes the vehicle more efficient using appropriate power sources for driving. However, the strategy usually needs a driving speed profile which is future driving cycle. If the profile is known, the strategy easily determines which mode is driven efficiently. However, it is difficult to estimate the speed profile for a real system. To address this problem, this paper proposes a new power distribution strategy using a neural network. The average speed and driving range are used as input parameters to train the neural network system. The strategy determines a limit for the use of the battery and the desired power is distributed between the engine and the motor simultaneously. Its fuel economy can increase by improving the basic strategy.

On AC railway systems, the neutral sections are installed in front of substations and sectioning posts in order to avoid crash between power that have differing phases. In case railway vehicles pass through these neutral sections, it is necessary for them to switch to coasting driving by notch-off. This may reduce speed of the vehicles, resulting lowered train operation efficiency. The usage of automatic power switching systems makes it possible to pass neutral sections at notch-on, enhancing operation efficiency so that it is appropriate for high-speed railway applications. This paper introduces a simulator that assesses efficiency of automatic power switching systems in neutral sections. The is composed of a power supply system, electric railway vehicles, thyristor switches, and traction motors.

This paper deals with the influence on the dynamic response of I-type girder railway bridge with high-speed electric multiple unit(HEMU) train load. This bridge system which has six I-girder and several cross beams, is modeled with plate and frame elements. And the upper slab is assumed to be fully connected with girders using rigid rinks. Span lengths, types of vehicle and running speeds are selected as parameters for analyses. For more exact analysis, it was adopted that 3-dimensional section of bridge models was produced by the assumed design wheel loads of HEMU vehicle at 200~350 km/hr speeds. Dynamic vertical deflections, dynamic amplification factors and vertical accelerations of bridges having 30 and 35 m span length were investigated and compared with the limit values specified in various national railway bridge specifications.

The measurement of dynamic stagger in electric railways is one of the key test parameters to increase speed and maintain safety in electric railways. This paper is introduces a non-contact optical-based measuring instrument of a catenary system in electric railways. The instrument is implemented by utilizing a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) camera installed on the roof of a vehicle for vision acquisition and image processing techniques including the Canny edge detector and the Hough transform to detect contact wires and calculate dynamic stagger. To check the validity of our approach for the intended application, we measured stagger of a overhead wire of a Korea Tilting Train (TTX). The non-contact optical-based measurement system proposed in this paper performs real-time stagger measurement of an activated high-voltage contact wire. By results of this paper, the instrument should be applied to assess performance and reliability of newly developed electric railway vehicles.

The brake systems of the rolling stocks are generally consisted of electrical and mechanical brake systems. Because of its inherent structure of the each brake system, the electrical brake system is mainly used at the high speed range while the mechanical brake system is used at the relatively lower speed range. It is desirable for the rolling stocks to apply the entire electrical brake system. However, since the brake force from electric brake system is not enough to stop the rolling stock within the legal stop distance. Therefore, the mechanical brake system is indispensable to rolling stocks. In general, the vast majority of the world trains are equipped with mechanical braking systems which use compressed air as the force to push block on to wheels or pads on to discs. These mechanical systems are known as air brake or pneumatic brakes. For the air brake system, basically huge scale air compressor is equipped and the long pipe line is complexively connected. Since mass of these air brake components, it is difficult to be a light weight equipment and the long pipe line raise the maintenance problem. In order to overcome these problems of air brake system, the hydraulic brake system is proposed in this research. The hydraulic brake system makes the whole weight of brake equipment be light and large braking force can be applied. Therefore, in this research, the validity and advantages of applying the hydraulic brake system are reviewed.
