The present study develops programs simulating the internal pressure change of cars due to the change of external pressure when trains run into or passing each other in a tunnel. A new continuous ventilating system control method has been developed in order to alleviate the aural discomfort of passengers riding a high speed train. This method is based on the change of the charged and discharged flow rate by detecting the air pressures generated outside and inside of the train. When the outside and inside pressure are detected, the speed of the charge or exhaust fans and also the valve opening ratios are changed. The elementary performance of the system is checked using dta of the TGV-K high speed train at a speed of 300km/h. Moreover, applicability of the system to the Koran high speed train at a speed of 350 km/h is ascertained by simulation and its effectiveness as a means to alleviate the ear pains is confirmed. This application of the system to the Korean high speed vehicles running in the speed range of 350km/h is considered to have good prospect.

This paper proposes the Systematic Design Methodology of the Korean High Speed Train. High Speed Train do not operate in isolation and are part of a rail system which is influenced through input and output effects from the environment and from the neighbouring system. To fulfil its overall desired function, such input and output relationships between the systems must be considered in the system boundary conditions. Therefore, the overall interrelationship of all these effects has to be carefully considered during the design process. Here proposed methodology may provide a guide line and criteria for the systematic problem solving method of that highly complex High Speed Train System.

In order to develop a high speed train, various conditions have been considered. Fatigue strength assessment by the fluctuation of pressure is an important one. In this study, the fluctuation and frequency of pressure is measured when KHST(Korean High Speed Train) passes through tunnels in the Kyung-Bu high-speed line. And the characteristics of pressure fluctuation is analysed and formulated. The results of analysis are as follows. The train entering speed and fluctuation value are related. The pressure increasing is generated in proportion to train velocity at leading car. When two train is passing through the tunnel, the pressure value is $1.5\~2$ times higher than one train is passing. The damping ratio of pressure fluctuation is about $92\%$. The number of pressure fluctuation in a tunnel is 4 to 6 times. The result in this study would be a good guidance to calculate the fatigue life and the reliability index of body structure.

The vibration induced by high speed train running on rail is dealt with as an environmental problem. The train induced vibration is characterized by moving loads at specific frequencies and soil conditions. In fact, it is predicted that the vibration sources are involved the wheel distance, number of cars, speed of operation, drift of rails, structural born vibration, etc. In this paper the characteristics of transferring vibration induced by the high-speed train in operation is discussed. Field measurements was conducted at region from Chungnam Yungj So-jung-myan to Chungbuk Chungwon hyun-do-myun. In the near future. these data will be used as the fundamental data for establishment of the countermeasure for vibrational reduction of high speed train using the results of the field measurements and quantitative prediction of the vibration level

The Korean high speed train runs at 300 km/h, ballast-flying phenomenon often happens by strong train-wind. It is important to consider the prevention of ballast-flying phenomenon, because the train under-body and fares or walker around a rail might be damaged. In this study, Numerical analysis of the flow field of under-body of train and study of heighter-effect were conducted to decrease the speed of under-body. The shape of under-body was simplified for convenience of meshing and analysis. According to results of Taguchi's design by orthogonal arrays, a height of tie is dominant in the flow field, so if the heighter is installed on tie, the speed of under-body might be decreased. The result of this study is useful to build a new high-speed-line.

In this study, an acoustical characteristics of sound proof panel for high speed train was performed. A sound absorption coefficient and transmission loss of sound proof panels for high speed train were tested in reverberation chambers and compared those of ordinary sound proof panel. The effect of noise barrier was simulated by using ray noise program with measured sound absorption coefficient for high speed train case and for ordinary case.

When a high speed train enters a tunnel, wind speed passing through the train in a tunnel section becomes higher due to the reverse flow to the direction of the train. The higher wind speed gives more aerodynamic forces to the pantograph on the train. Therefore, it is necessary to perform aerodynamic and dynamic analyses in order to check whether the current collection of the high speed train, entering the tunnel, still remain permissible or not. In this paper, the aerodynamic analysis has been performed under the assumption that a high speed train at 300 km/h enters a tunnel whose cross sectional area Is 107/㎡ and length is 1000m. In consideration of the aerodynamic analysis results, the dynamic analysis has been performed based on the catenary and pantograph dynamic models in SEOUL-PUSAN high speed rail, using the GASENDO developed by RTRI. In addition, the fatigue life of the contact wire has been reviewed using the Goodman diagram. Based on the analysis results, it is concluded that the increase of the aerodynamic forces on the pantograph in the tunnel section shall not affect characteristics of current collection adversely except that motions of the pantograph may be constrained by bump-stops.

High-speed train under development is a type of EMU(electric multiple units). Since power sources like motors and gears are distributed in the high-speed EMU, the high-speed EMU generates vibration and sound more than the articulated high-speed train. Vibration of vehicle, vibration between rails and wheels, hunting of bogie and snake motion reduce ride comfort. In this paper, to decrease the vibration of the articulated high-speed train, improvements were presented using an analytical model and a simulation model. The simulation model of the high-speed EMU was designed on the basis of the korean high-speed train and the design parameters for ride comfort were showed and the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle was understood. To consider the characteristics of the vehicle suspension, the analytical model was designed and the simulation model was verified with it.

Nowadays, high speed train has settled down as a fast and convenient environment-friendly transportation and it's need is gradually increasing. However increased train speed leads to increased aerodynamic noise, which causes critically affects comfortability of passengers. Especially, the pantograph of high speed train is protruded out of train body, which is the main factor for increased aerodynamic noise. Since aerodynamic noise caused pantograph should be measured in high speed, it is difficult to measure it and to analysis aerodynamic noise characteristics due to the various types of pantograph. In this research, aerodynamic noise of pantograph is predicted by CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) and FW-H (Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings) equation. Also, Wind tunnel test results and numerical simulation results were compared. As a result, Simulation results predicting sound pressure level is very similar with wind tunnel test result. To analyze contribution of the pantograph to the noise of high-speed train, simulation results compared with measurement results of exterior noise. The simulation reuslts found that pantograph is a dominant noise source of high-speed trains's exterior noise in low frequency section. This dominant noise was come out from vortex shedding of the panhead in the pantograph. This research will be utilized for reduce sound pressure level of pantograph.
