Trains in LRT(Light Railway Transit) system usually have shorter car length than metro's because of their smaller passensers demand. Therefore it is very likely that the load condition of LRT system in abnormal operation, in case of which trains are in close proximity by system broke or train rescue works, could be worse rather than in normal operation, in spite of rare probability of abnormal operation. In this study, the target reliability indexes of several abnormal operations are estimated in accordance with the occurrence probabilities of each abnormal operation case and the reliability index of normal operation presented by the specification. From the indexes, load factors for the abnormal operation cases are estimated and the safety evaluation is performed for Yong-in LRT project.

Light Rail Transit(LRT) Systems with transport capacity between subway and bus(5,000-25,000 persons per hour) are being carried on over 100 lines around the world. In Korea, to solve the urban transportation problem, the introduction of LRT system has been proceeded positively. It is planned to develop the Korean standard LRT system in which safety, efficiency and cost effectiveness are emphasized. So we were able to make proto type of Rubber tired AGT system for LRT. This is capable of driverless operation using CBTC(Communication Based Train Control) of Moving Block System and is currently making an experiment for reliability in test-line. This study is focused on verifving the train tracking with CBTC in driverless and ATO mode through implementing the examination.

The study of this study is to suggest the advanced vision of LRT O&M through comparing the domestic and japanese. Currently local government attract a private capital to construct the LRT competitively. It was investigated the O&M field participation of Light Rail Transit by the Seoul metro which operates Seoul subway 1,2,3,4 lines at this time. But, according to the restricted operation experiences in domestic, Japanese companies which operates a Light Rail Transit in Japan were analysed using several statistics. It were compared with operation plan of domestic execution design phase of representative 4 lines. The analysis gives us some points in common and suggestions that are very important and prerequisite for advancing seoul metro into LRT O&M business.

Automatic Operation based on ATO (Automatic Train Operation) is necessary for driverless Light Rail Transit business. When this kind of driverless LRT operation plan is made, TPS (Train Performance Simulation) is traditionally simulated at all-out mode and coasting mode based on manual operation. Commercial schedule speed equals to all-out speed minus $9{\sim}15%$ make-up margin. Coasting mode TPS simulation is also run at commercial schedule speed to calculate run time and energy consumption. But TPS based on manual operation should make an improvement on accuracy in case of driverless LRT operation Plan. In this paper, new fast mode TPS simulation using ATO pattern is proposed and show near actual ATO result. The actual ATO pattern can be accurately simulated with the introduction of 4 parameters such as commercial braking rate, jerk, station stop profile and grade converted distance. Normal mode TPS simulation for commercial schedule speed can be designed to have fast mode trip time plus 3 seconds/km margin recommended by korean standard LRT specification.

Recently, the bogie frame weight of Light Rail Transit system has been reduced in order to save energy and materials. However, this light weighted vehicle structure is very important to verify the fatigue strength at the development stage. Bogie system consists of bogie frame, suspensions, wheel-sets, braking system and transmission system. Among these components, the bogie frame is most significant component subjected to the whole vehicle and passenger loads. In this study, the bogie frame for the New LRT power car is evaluated to the static and fatigue strength. And the evaluation method is used the LRT Performance Test Standards Specification throughout the FEM analysis and static load test. The static and fatigue test results for the LRT bogie frame of power car has been appeared very safety and stable for the design load conditions.

This study is concerned with the quantitative Quality of Service(QoS) of the Light Railway Transit(LRT) System. Generally, the QoS offered to passengers by the Operator of LRT system can be quantified in various ways. In this paper, we assumed that the QoS is a combination of both Train Delivery and Train Punctuality under considering LRT characteristics including core sub-systems such as, rolling stock, signalling, power-supply and PSD(platform screen door), etc. We also, provide a quantitative analysis method to evaluate the QoS related the reliability of LRT system.

본 논문은 서울시 우이-신설 경전철의 출입문 사양 결정을 위한 승하차 시간 예측 모의실험 내용과 실험 데이터 분석결과를 제시한다. 우이-신설 경전철과 유사한 차량(김해 경전철 차량) 및 운영조건을 설정하여 승하차 시간을 측정하는 모의실험을 반복적으로 실시한다. 실험계획은 승하차 인원의 시나리오에 따라 4가지로 구성하였으며, 총 39회의 모의실험을 실시하였다. 이 실험결과를 활용하여 우이-신설 경전철의 출입문 폭과 수량에 대한 차량설계 방안의 적절성 검증이 가능하였다. 실험결과에 대한 통계적 분석으로 승하차 인원의 변화에 따른 승하차 시간 분석을 실시하였다. 실험계획에서 설정된 시나리오를 승하차 인원의 규모에 따라 다시 3가지 수준으로 분류하고, 수준별 승하차 시간의 평균과 분산을 조사하였다. 다음 승차, 하차 및 재차 인원의 구성에 따른 일원배치 분산분석(One-Way ANOVA)을 실시하여 각각의 구성이 승하차 시간에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 본 논문에서 제시된 실험결과 및 분석결과들은 장래 도시형 경전철 차량의 출입문 설계 관련 업무에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

경전철은 중전철에 비하여 건설비가 50% 정도 소요되며 친환경적이어서 최근 국내의 많은 지자체에서 여러 가지 형식의 경전철을 계획하고 있으며 일부 건설이 진행중인 곳도 있다. "도시철도법제22조의 2(도시철도차량의안전기준)"에서는 "구조 및 장치가 안전운행에 필요한 기준(구조 및 장치)에 적합하지 아니하면 운행하지 못한다." 도시철도차량안전기준에관한규칙 제3조에는 도시철도의 건설자 또는 운영자가 안전기준에 맞게 차량을 발주하거나 운영하도록 되어있다. 도시철도차량안전기준에관한규칙은 2000년에 제정되어 대구지하철사고이후 화재안전기준등이 강화되어 2004년에 한번 개정이 되었다. 이는 전적으로 중 대형 전동차를 위주로 작성되었다. 완전무인운전을 기본으로 하여 신호장치 등에 대한 안전기준이 다르고 연절형 대차등을 적용 및 축중등에 대한 안전기준 내용등이 달라 국내 경전철과 관련된 많은 기관 등에서 전반적인 개정요구가 많은 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 국내 경전철 차량의 특징 및 개정의 필요성등을 다루어 향후 경전철 관련 안전기준의 개정 방향을 설정하는데 그 목적이 있다.

Light Rail Vehicle(LRT) is "New Transit System" that has transportation capacity as well as physical size of vehicle is in-between bus and subway. The demand of LRT system is increasing rapidly; both domestically and internationally. Reason being is that it is more economical and eco-friendly compare to existing heavy rail vehicle. Especially, Busan Subway Line 4 K-AGT (Rubber-tired LRT) being the first of its kind to start revenue service in Korea, it is very much likely that application of its demand will continue to increase. Considering its trend, study to reduce implementation cost of LRT is being pursued in many different aspects; reducing construction cost is one that aspect. In this study, on-site application of 'Up-Down Turnout System' implementation research has been carried out which can replace existing 'Left-Right Turnout System'. When safety of its type gets verified, application of this system to line which intends to use K-AGT, Shin-Lim Line and Dong-Book Line, expects to save its construction cost. This thesis paper reports ongoing research of AGT 'Up-Down Turnout System' development and main component design factors, fundamental principle, performance test result.
