In order to determine the most suitable material system for achieving the lightweight design while fulfilling the design requirements of carbody structures of Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX), aluminum carbody. composite carbody, and hybrid carbody combined with aluminum and composite structures were considered in the present study. The finite-element analysis was used to verify the design requirements or the TTX carbody structures with the material system considered in the design stages. The stresses in the carbody structures and deflections of underframe against static load cases were used as design criteria. The results show that the hybrid carbody structures are beneficial with regard to weight savings and structural integrity in comparison to aluminum and composite carbody structures.

The purpose of this study is to propose the modular design of hybrid lightweight carbody structures made of sandwich composites and aluminum extrusion. The sandwich composites were used for secondary structures to minimize the weight of carbody, and the aluminum extrusions were applied to primary structures to improve the stiffness of carbody and manufacturability. Key requirements were defined for the modular design of hybrid carbody, and the applied parts of sandwich composites were determined through the topology optimization analysis. Consequently, feasibility of enhancing mass saving and maintainability in modular hybrid carbody design were presented, comparing with the carbody structures made of aluminum extrusion or sandwich composites only.

In order to evaluate the static stability of hybrid carbody structures of Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX) caused by degradation of composites under ground environments, T300/AD6005 graphite/epoxy composite specimens were exposed to accelerated environmental conditions including ultraviolet radiation, temperature and moisture fer 2000 hours. It was found that the stiffness and strength of composites after aging were lower than those of unexposed specimens, and decreased as the aging time increases. The values of the degraded properties were used in the static analysis to check the static stability of hybrid carbody structures caused by environmental degradation of composites. The results shown that the structural stability of hybrid carbody structures was affected by the degradation of composites after exposure to accelerated aging environments.

This paper explains manufacturing process, analysis and experimental studies on a hybrid composite carbody of Korean tilting train. The composite carbody with length of 23m was manufactured as a sandwich structure composed of a aluminium honeycomb core and woven fabric carbon/epoxy faces. In order to evaluate deformational behavior of the composite carbody, the static load test under vertical load has been conducted. From the test, the vertical deflection an겨 cross sectional deformation of the carbody were analysed and measured. The maximum deflection along the side sill was 9.25mm in the experiment and 8.28mm in the analysis. The maximum cross sectional deformation was measured 5.42mm at carbody center in lateral direction and 4.06mm at roof center in vertical direction.

There are the marked differences between the design techniques of carbody structures made of composite materials and metal materials. The design techniques of carbody structures made of metal materials have already been guaranteed in the domestic field. But, in case of the hybrid composite carbody structures, it is the first attempt to be developed and there is no experience of the design in the railway applications. In this paper, the design techniques of hybrid composite structures were introduced and compared with that of the conventional metal carbody.

The hybrid composite carbody structures were considered as the carbody system of Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX) to achieve the lightweight design. The TTX carbodies are composed of the carbody shell made of the sandwich composite structure and the undeframe made of the metal structure. The sandwich structures were used to minimize the weight of carbody, and the metal underframe was used to modify the design easily and to keep the strength of underframe by the installation of the electrical equipments. The sandwich carbody structures will be cured in an autoclave. In this paper, the manufacturing processes of the TTX carbody structures were introduced briefly.

This research presents the manufacturing process and the structural strength assessment for the hybrid composite carbody. In this study, the manufacturing process for carbody with length of 23m was explained. The composite carbody was fabricated as one body using autoclave with length of 30m and 5m diameter. The structural behavior of the carbody under the 3-point supporting and the natural frequency were evaluated as well. In addition, the test results were compared with the numerical one. From the tests, the structural strength of the hybrid composite carbody was assessed.
