The metropolitan cities and operation companies of urban transit railway are driving to construct the LRT(light rail transit) system because of the advantage of construction cost and environmental serviceability. This study suggests the optimal design method of steel box girder considering dynamic characteristics of LRT with rubber wheel. The behavior and design constraints are formulated based on the structural design criteria for LRT. Genetic algorithm is applied to the minimum weight design of structural system. A typical example is solved to illustrate the applicability of the proposed minimization algorithm. From the results of application example, the optimum design of steel box girder is successfully accomplished. Therefore, this system can act as a consultant to assist novice designers in the design of steel box girder for LRT with rubber wheel.

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.

LRT(Light Railway Train), which is a intermediate system of train and bus, is arose for the solution of subway construction cost and the transportation capacity of bus. LRT was introduced in 1980's. About 30 local governments are plan to introduce LRT or constructing LRT, at present. AGT(Automated Guide-way Transit) system, which is a kind of LRT, is operated without driver. Rubber wheeled AGT system can reduce the noise and vibration compare to steel wheeled AGT, so it is estimated as ideal transportation system for urban area. And live loads at bridge are classified as the static load of vehicle and the dynamic wheel contact load which is occurred from the interaction of bridge and vehicle vibration, and the surface roughness. In the case of AGT system, the dynamic increment factor of bridge is greater than the normal train bridge and roadway bridge, because, the weight of AGT vehicle is more light that the train of truck. The exact method for dynamic increment factor is experiment. But this method is needed much money and time, moreover, this method cannot be adopted in design. Therefore, a simulation program for the interaction of AGT bridge, vehicle and surface roughness was developed, in this study. And the program was verified by experiment. As a result, the accuracy of the simulation program can be verified.

Embedded rail track can be described as a track structure that is completely covered within pavement. Rail supported continually on a concrete slab or concrete plinth. There are many kinds of types such as non-resilient track and resilient track, super resilient embedded track (floating slab). Embedded rail track is generally the standard for light rail transit routes because this track has many advantages such as reducing noise, maintenance cost and weight of track. In this paper, decision of track profile is restricted by the optimum levels of the flangeway and the gap between the rail head and the pavement surface of depressing tread zone. By result of this study, embedded rail track can reduce corrosion of rail, internal stress and rail deflection.

여러 종류의 경량전철 중에서, 고무차륜 경량전철은 가 감속 성능과 등판능력이 우수하고 소음과 진동이 적어 많은 국가에서 활발히 채택되고 있다. 하지만, 경량전철 시스템은 일반적으로 고전압의 급전시스템을 이용하기 때문에 높은 수준의 전자기파를 유발한다. 반면, 광섬유 센서는 전자기파의 영향을 받지 않는 장점으로 인해 최근 교량과 같은 토목 구조물에 적용이 확대되고 있으며 특히, 광섬유 브래그 격자 센서는 다중화가 용이하다는 장점으로 가장 활발히 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 한국형 경량전철의 시험선 구간에 설치된 콘크리트 교량에서 차량이 진행할 때 교량의 동적응답을 측정하였다. 측정센서로는 기존의 전기식 센서와 광섬유 브래그 격자 기반의 센서를 이용하였으며 변형률과 가속도를 측정하였다. 이를 바탕으로, 교량의 사용성 평가를 수행하였으며 실험 결과 전기식 센서의 경우 EMI의 영향을 받는 반면, 광섬유 브래그 격자 기반의 센서들은 EMI의 영향을 받지 않아 EMI의 영향이 극심한 경량전철 교량에서 교량의 사용성 평가를 위한 계측 센서로 광섬유 센서가 효과적으로 적용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.
