This paper aims for proposed the deflection limit on vibration serviceability of high-speed railway bridges considering passenger's comfort when a train passes a railway bridge. The vertical acceleration signals of passenger cars obtained from test were compared with them from the bridge-train transfer function by riding KTX. The deflections by KTX of seven high speed railway bridges were assumed as sine and haversine wave. The deflection limit on vibration serviceability of high-speed railway bridges considering passenger's comfort when a train passes a railway bridge duration can be expanded using bridge-train transfer function and bridge comfort limit considering serviceability due to bridge vibration. And it was compared to other allowable deflection limits of railway bridge design specifications.

본 논문은 기존 전동차의 자동운전(ATO : Automatic Train Operation)시 발생되는 승차감 저하의 원인을 분석, 제어패턴의 수정을 통한 승차감 성능 향상에 관한 것이다. 인천지하철 1호선을 중심으로 전동차에 적용된 자동열차운전 제어기의 특성, 주행제어 원리, 거리 및 속도의 산출 방법을 제시하고 기존의 ATO 제어패턴을 분석한다. 분석을 통하여 기존 운전제어장치에서 산출된 제어패턴을 승차감 관점에서 재조명하고 주행시 고려되는 선로 환경에 대한 조건을 충족시키면서 승차감 결정의 핵심요소인 가가속도(Jerk)의 주행 특성을 최적화하여 향상된 승차감 성능을 갖는 제어패턴을 산출하였다. 도출되는 결과의 입증을 위하여 제어 패턴을 시뮬레이션하고 현차를 이용하여 본선 주행시험을 실시한 후 그 결과를 승차감의 관점에서 기존 제어패턴시의 결과 값과 비교, 분석하였다.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this article is to compare and evaluate the riding comfort of a passenger in tunnels depending on different surface textures of concrete pavement. METHODS : Evaluation of riding comfort is conducted at 17 sections, which have different surface texture such as transverse tinned(TT), longitudinal tinned(LT) and diamond grinded(DG). A triaxial accelerometer was set up on the passenger seat surface of the test vehicle to measure vibrations of an occupant, then the effects of vibration on comfort and health were evaluated by ISO 2631. And microphones were installed at passenger's ears height to measure sound pressure level(SPL) in the test vehicle. Additionally, a surface microphone was installed on the inside of wheel arch to evaluate noise between tire and pavement by NCPX method. All tests were conducted cruising at 100km/h. RESULTS : The results of all tests are as follows. First, both vibration magnitudes for comfort and for health in LT and DG sections are almost same and they represent lower than those in TT sections. Second, the average SPL of DG shows the lowest decibels among them. And third, it is founded that interior noise is significantly affected by noise between tire and pavement. CONCLUSIONS : It may be concluded that DG can provide more excellent riding comfort to passenger than LT or TT. Therefore, it is necessary to consider applying DG to existing pavement surface to improve surface condition when the driving environment especially requires riding comfort like a long tunnel.

For the purpose of speed-up of conventional lines with many curves, the introduction and operation of tilting train is under process. Those are Joong-Ang, Jang-Hang and Ho-nam lines etc. Tilting trains can run a curve section faster than existing trains without a significant violation of passenger's comfort and enable to reduce operating time in the lines with many curves. In this study, the trains speeds are evaluated, based on the alignment of conventional line, criteria for passenger's comfort and investigated field conditions of the sections where the curves exist. Decision on whether the alignment(transition line) needs to be modified or not is also made. Relative efficiency on curve sections of tilting train to existing trains is approximately $50\%$ in average.

The purpose of this paper is to present the alignment layout and the way of modifying transition curve for better operation of tilting trains. It is based on data from field investigation of all curves in conventional line. In general, all curves have transition parts in the beginning and end of the main curve in order to improve the passenger's comfort. The speed-up of conventional line may need an extention of transition curves. This paper checked out whether the transition curve should be modified or not and how to lengthen it. Then the maximum train speeds in curve prior to and after the modification of transition curve were evaluated.

Cool-down performance after soaking is important because it affects passenger's thermal comfort. The cooling capacity of HVAC system determines initial cool down performance in most cases, the performance is also affected by location, and shape of panel vent, indoor seat arrangement. Therefore, optimal indoor designs are required in developing a new car. In this paper, initial cool down performance is predicted by CFD(computational fluid dynamics) analysis. Experimental time-averaging temperature data are used as inlet boundary condition. For more reliable analysis, real vehicle model and human FE model are used in grid generation procedure. Thermal and aerodynamic characteristics on re-circulation cool vent mode are investigated using CFX 12.0. Thermal comfort represented by PMV(predicted mean vote) is evaluated using acquired numerical data. Temperature and velocity fields show that flow in passenger's compartment after soaking is considerably unstable at the view point of thermodynamics. Volume-averaged temperature is decreased exponentially during overall cool down process. However, temperature monitored at different 16 spots in CFX-Solver shows local variation in head, chest, knee, foot. The cooling speed at the head and chest nearby panel vent are relatively faster than at the knee and foot. Horizontal temperature contour shows asymmetric distribution because of the location of exhaust vent. By evaluating the passenger's thermal comfort, slowest cooling region is found at the driver's seat.

SD (Smart Door) is a human friendly power-assisted door system initially targeted for passenger car doors. The Smart Door offers comfort and safety to passengers or/and drivers by supplying additional power. Amount of power supplied by the Smart Door system is depend on the environment where the automotive is situated. It realizes comfort, for example, when the force applied by the passenger to the door is expected to be abnormal, the SD system tries to compensate passenger's effort by supplying additional force. In this study, to enhance the ease of opening and closing the doors of the passenger vehicle, a Smart Door with a power assist mechanism consisting of a motor was developed and analysed. A power assist mechanism mounted within the vehicle's door is designed and modeled for simulation purpose. The required force necessary to control the designed mechanism during the vehicle's roll, pitch and the opening angle of the door has been considered. To this end, we propose a power-assisting control strategy called "gravity cancellation". The system is analysed by numerical simulation with the gravity cancellation control algorithm.

In this paper, the ride comfort from a computer simulation was compared to the experimental result. For measuring ride comfort of a passenger car, acceleration data was obtained from the floor and seat during highway running with different speeds. The measured acceleration components were multiplied by the proper weighting functions, and then summed together to calculate overall ride values. Testing several passenger cars, the ride comforts were compared. In order to investigate the effect of vibration signals on the steering wheel, an apparatus to measure the vibrations and weighting functions on the steering wheel were designed. The effect of the steering accelerations on the ride comfort were investigated and added for the overall ride comfort. For the computer simulations, Korean dummy models were developed based on the Hybrid III dummy models. For the Korean dummy scaling, the national anthropometric survey of Korean people was used. In order to compare and check the validity of the developed Korean dummy models, dynamic responses were compared to those of Hybrid III dummy models. The computer simulation using the MADYMO software was also compared to the experimental results.

우리나라의 도시부철도(광역 및 도시철도)는 첨두시간대의 집중률이 매우 높은 편이다. 이 경우 도로 교통에서는 차량의 통행시간이 증가함에 따라 혼잡비용이 발생하지만, 운행시격이 정해져 있는 도시철도에서는 열차 내부의 승객 증가로 인해 승객의 신체적 정신적인 비효용(disutility)이 발생함에 따라 승객의 쾌적성이 감소하게 된다. 새로운 노선의 건설, 현재 노선의 보수 및 확장 등으로 인해 도시철도의 용량이 증가하여 승객의 쾌적성이 증가하는 경우 도로 철도 부문사업의 (예비)타당성조사 표준지침 수정 보완 연구(제4판)에서 제시하고 있는 편익 항목으로는 승객의 쾌적성 변화에 따른 편익을 산출할 수 없다. 이에 본 연구에서는 승객의 쾌적성에 영향을 미치는 요인들에 대해 살펴보고, 차량 내 혼잡 완화에 따른 승객의 편익을 산출하고자 한다. 설문조사를 통해 수집된 승객의 지불용의액(WTP) 자료를 이용해 Tobit 모형을 추정한 다음, 승객의 쾌적성 편익을 추정한다.
