Recently, the speed of high-speed railway has been rapidly increase with the development of high-speed train design and operating technology. This causes a lot of complaints related the environmental noise in residential areas near the high-speed railway. In order to operate the high-speed railway in accordance with the design speed, noise reduction technology should be developed to meet the noise characteristics of high-speed railway. And it is important to develop the prediction technology by grasping the noise radiation characteristics. In order to meet these requirements, in recent years, infra-research for 400 km/h high speed railway has been conducted. Reliable noise prediction and noise reduction techniques have been developed through this study. This paper is concerned with wind pressure safety and noise performance evaluation of the newly developed 400 km/h noise reduction device. The wind pressure safety and The noise performance of the developed device was confirmed by this paper.

The railway bridge design specification used in our country at present, is reflected results that take into account link between vehicle and roadbed according to decision of TGV vehicle style in 1994, and executes design verification. Hereafter, the particular loading condition and the design speed of the high-speed EMU that is recognized to the next generation of high speed railway, are plain difference with TGV vehicle style decided in 1994. The effect that these load and design speed get in roadbed, especially superstructure, displays difference with the existent high speed railway. The goal of this study is to choose the suitable bridge type, and to reduce the construction cost for the next generation of railway, i.e., the high-speed EMU.

The high-speed railway of catenary system, supplies a stable electric power supply to the train by satisfying the special conditions between pantograph and trolley wire, which operates more than 250km/h mutually sliding and feeding electric lines. According to Korean Railway Standard KRS PW 0026-13 (R), the standard for the grip strength of the dropper clamp in conventional line is established, but the high-speed railway line is not yet. When the grip strength of the dropper clamp is detached from the catenary line of the high-speed railway line, various problems may occur, such as damage to the pantograph due to the collision and arcing. In this paper, it is expected to be used as a basic data for establishing the durability criteria of the high-speed railway dropper clamp by verifying the dropper clamp on the Gyeong-bu and Honam high-speed line.

Railway noise is one of the main causes of environmental impact. Whenever a new railway line is planned or a housing project near an existing railway is proposed, an estimate of the relevant levels is usually required. For this, it is necessary to quantify those parameters that affect the railway noise. Therefore we investigated the noise and vibration level which 107 high speed trains generated passing through the block of test railway track between Chunan and Chungwon. This paper presents the status and characteristics of the high speed railway noise and an accurate prediction of the high speed railway noise.

Derailment due to wheel failure would cause a tremendous social and economical cost in service operation. It is necessary to evaluate quantitatively the safety with respect to high-speed train. Although the safety of railway wheel has been ensured by an regular inspection, all critical defects cannot be detected in inspection cycles and the wheel has been replaced because a defect quickly become critical for safety. Therefore, it is important to calculate quantitatively the fracture limit and remnant life of damaged railway wheel in wheel-rail system. In present paper, the critical crack size of wheel for high-speed train is simulated based on fracture scenario and the safety of wheel is evaluated.

From the research which it sees the safety regarding a high-speed railway vehicle collision and a derailment evaluation research it an example and executed. Japan, France, Germany and Spain, Italy and with our country together it compared a high-speed railway vehicle collision of the high-speed railroad operating nation and derailed relation safety standard and safety against the evaluation system trade name comparison it analyzed. The research which it sees it led and the accident instance against the hazard analysis against the collision and a derailment of the high-speed railway vehicle and a risk evaluation together and a high-speed vehicle collision and derailed it cannot prevention plan from hereafter domestic comparison it analyzed forecast it presented.

Most modern railways, especially the high speed railway tracks, use continuous welded rail(CWR) for the less maintenance. For the CWR track has very few expansion joints, track buckling has always been an unpredictable event and it happens mainly by high compressive stress in rail in summer period. Therefore, it is important to understand the variation of rail stress induced by thermal loads which has direct influence on the rail buckling and stability of railway track. This paper describes the experimental investigation of the variation of rail temperature and stress in a high speed railway track on bridge structure. Field measurement was performed to examine the correlation between the rail temperature and rail stress on the Korean High Speed Railway line. Regression functions were derived from measured data to determine the rail stress f3r an arbitrary rail temperature varies from 20 to 50 degree Celsius.

As the railway becomes higher, the reliable stability and riding comfort of higher railway are required. To improve the riding comfort of high-speed trains, it is very helpful to use active suspension system for railway. In Japan, the high-speed train, Shinkansen has adopted semi-active suspension system and now it is running in the main trunk. In this paper, the authors introduce several technical trends of vibration control methods of Japanese Shinkansen. And the installation of semi-active suspension to HSR 350x and the test result of test run on the Kyoung-Bu high speed ling are also explained. After development of HSR 350x, new R&D national project of high speed train is progressed by Ministry of Land, Transport, and Maritime Affairs. This project is the development of Electric Multiple Unit of high speed train with 400km/h of maximum test speed. These result would be helpful to progress next generation high speed project.

The newly established high speed railway station may function not only just as a traffic convergence but also as an energizing force with multiple roles in the context of municipal environment. As a result, the development of high speed railway station zone will be considered as great opportunities as well to enhance quality of life of the neighboring inhabitants, as to develop new footholds for the inner-municipal growth and mobilization. The main purpose of this article is to offer guidelines about the effects of development of the high speed railway station zone seen from multiple aspects of municipal lifes and functions. To attain this purpose, the definition of high speed railway station zone, its characteristics, and its roles will be handled with the case of advanced countries such as Japan and France. And some lessons will be proposed based on them.

Computer aided simulation is an essential part in planning, design, and operation of railway systems. To determine the adequate performance and specification of railway system, it is necessary to calculate train performances such as distance, speed, power during train's running. This paper presents result of train performance simulation using the program that developed for Korea high speed train. To verify result of simulation, we have compared that with experiment data.
