This paper presents a new circuit topology of DC busline switch and snubbing capacitor-assisted full-bridge soft-switching PWM inverter type DC-DC power converter with a high frequency link for low voltage large current applications as DC feeding systems, telecommunication power plants, automotive DC bus converters, plasma generator, electro plating plants, fuel cell interfaced power conditioner and arc welding power supplies. The proposed power converter circuit is based upon a voltage source-fed H type full-bridge high frequency PWM inverter with a high frequency transformer link. The conventional type high frequency inverter circuit is modified by adding a single power semiconductor switching device in series with DC rail and snubbing lossless capacitor in parallel with the inverter bridge legs. All the active power switches in the full-bridge inverter arms and DC busline can achieve ZVS/ZVT turn-off and ZCS turn-on commutation operation. Therefore, the total switching losses at turn-off and turn-on switching transitions of these power semiconductor devices can be reduced even in the high switching frequency bands ranging from 20 kHz to 100 kHz. The switching frequency of this DC-DC power converter using IGBT power modules is selected to be 60 kHz. It is proved experimentally by the power loss analysis that the more the switching frequency increases, the more the proposed DC-DC converter can achieve high performance, lighter in weight, lower power losses and miniaturization in size as compared to the conventional hard switching one. The principle of operation, operation modes, practical and inherent effectiveness of this novel DC-DC power converter topology is proved for a low voltage and large current DC-DC power supplies of arc welder applications in industry.

수십 년 동안, 철도는 차량의 운영과 조작 기술에 맞추어 짧은 길이의 레일을 서로 신축 이음을 두고 연결한 궤도를 이용하여 건설되었다. 그러나 이러한 신축이음들은 궤도 손상과 유지비 증가 등의 많은 단점들을 유발시켰다. 그래서, 철도 기술자들은 차량, 용접, 체결의 기술이 발전함에 따라 열차 하중, 속도의 증가를 위해 레일 사이의 신축 이음을 제거하는 데 많은 관심을 가지게 되었다. 그래서 최근 등장한 것이 기존 레일의 단점들을 해소할 수 있는 CWR궤도이다. 그러나 이러한 CWR궤도는 기존 레일의 단점을 극복할 수 있었으나 레일의 장대화에 따른 온도 하중으로 인한 레일의 좌굴 문제를 야기시켰다. 본 논문에서는 유한 요소 해석을 이용하여 선형 좌굴 해석을 위한 CWR 궤도의 모델과 해석 프로그램인 CWRB를 개발하였다. 레일의 해석 모델은 레일요소 당딤을 고려한 14개의 자유도로 나타내었으며, 체결재, 침목, 도상 저항력을 스프링 요소를 사용하였다. 장대레일의 온도하중에 의한 좌굴 온도 및 모드의 분석으로 장대레일의 온도 좌굴 특성을 고찰하였다.

As a result of the examination analyzed loop type of Detecting the Broken Rail Monitoring System as a part of prevention of train derailment, installed in the Seoul Metro No. 2 subway line 98.51m section which is Samsung to Seolleung, we found that it is possible to detect crack location(Thermit welding: 48.18m) within the margin of error of ${\pm}1m$ accurately As analysis of the first day, third day, fifty day, and seventh day periodically, we found that Fresnel reflection happened where the crack location 48.18m. However other 3 branches show loss by bending of optical cable(spread reflection from the outside impact).

Recently in Korea, noise is one of the most important social issues because the living standard becomes more higher. Railway noise is also annoying one in our society, although railway has very positive role in our country. The major measures for mitigation of railway noise in Korea are rail welding and installation of noise barrier on the noisy area. But these measures have its own limit for the calm and comfortable living environment. In Europe the railway noise problem has been treated more systematically and aggressively, there has been emission noise standard for Trans-European rail network. In this paper, the trend of noise standard for railway vehicles will be reported and the check point for our country will be discussed.

The rotating bogie frame is used in the bogie for a Light Rail Train under development in Korea. In development of the bogie, the structural strength and fatigue characteristics of the rotating bogie frame have been evaluated under the predefined load cases according to the Korean standards for a urban EMU. No part of the rotating bogie frame was subjected to stress beyond the fatigue endurance limits of the material used when grinding the welding of the lower plate link. It is concluded that the rotating bogie frame is safe in view of its static and fatigure strength.

As rail steel at a crossing area must undergo much higher loading than those at regular railway, Mn-alloyed steel is normally used for its high load-carrying capability and reduced wear rate. However, as these Mn-alloyed steel is tend to have casting defects, manufacturing cost to produce defect-free Mn-alloyed steel becomes quite expensive. Therefore, in order to replace Mn-alloyed steel, we performed build-up welding using CH-90 and investigated regarding to wear characteristics of build-up weld metal.

Turret mooring type Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) is designed to rotate the hull around a turret system. The system is mounted inside a cylindrical moon-pool structure of the ship hull structure. The upper part of the moon-pool structure called Bogie Support Structure (BSS) is supported on ring type rail structure (bogie), so high roundness is required at the top of the structure. In this study, the deformation measured during BSS installation was compared with the predicted values through the thermal elasto-plastic analysis, and the causes of deformation were analyzed. Deformation behavior of cylindrical structure with a very large diameter compared to the thickness was investigated. In addition, a proper welding sequence and correction method for the deformed structure were proposed. This study can be an example of the solution to the tolerance problem of large cylindrical structures.

궤도용 차량의 안전성 확보를 위한 연구의 일환으로서 레일강의 균열 발생 조건과 모재와 용접부에 대한 정적파괴거동 및 단일모드 하중하의 피로균열진전거동을 검토하였다. 레일에서 횡방향 균열의 원점은 표면하층균열이며 이는 최대전단응력에 의해 발생하였다. 또한 표면하층균열의 크기가 증가함에 따라 균열의 진전은 전단모드에서 혼합모드로 천이될 가능성이 증가하였다. 용접부의 평면변형률 파괴인성은 조직의 조대화와 경도의 상승으로 인하여 모재에 비하여 약 10% 저하하였다. 용접부의 제 2단계 영역의 피로 균열진전속도는 낮은 ${\Delta}K$ 영역에서 모재에 비하여 저하하였으나 높은 ${\Delta}K$영역에서는 이의 차이가 소멸되었으며 이러한 경향은 R=0.1의 낮은 응력비에서 현저하였다. 이는 용접부의 미시조직이 모재에 비하여 성장하였기 때문이라고 판단된다.

This paper presents two new circuit topologies of the dc busline side active resonant snubber assisted voltage source high frequency link soft switching PWM full-bridge dc-dc power converters acceptable for either utility ac 200V-rms or ac 400V-rms input grid. These high frequency switching dc-dc converters proposed in this paper are composed of a typical voltage source-fed full-bridge PWM inverter, high frequency transformer with center tap, high frequency diode rectifier with inductor input filter and dc busline side series switches with the aid of a dc busline parallel capacitive lossless snubber. All the active switches in the full-bridge arms as well as dc busline snubber can achieve ZCS turn-on and ZVS turn-off transition commutation with the aid of a transformer leakage inductive component and consequently the total switching power losses can be effectively reduced. So that, a high switching frequency operation of IGBTs in the voltage source full bridge inverter can be actually designed more than about 20 kHz. It is confirmed that the more the switching frequency of full-bridge soft switching inverter increases, the more soft switching PWM dc-dc converter with a high frequency transformer link has remarkable advantages for its power conversion efficiency and power density implementations as compared with the conventional hard switching PWM inverter type dc-dc power converter. The effectiveness of these new dc-dc power converter topologies can be proved to be more suitable for low voltage and large current dc-dc power supply as arc welding equipment from a practical point of view.

부상레일은 자기부상열차의 운행을 위한 선로구축물의 궤도상부에 설치되어 있으며, 열차의 주행시 레일과 침목의 연결부는 반복적인 피로하중을 받게 된다. 이에 본 연구에서는 자기부상열차의 주행시 부상레일이 부담하게 되는 피로하중 및 비상착지시 발생하는 충격하중에 대한 피로해석을 통하여 부상레일의 설계 건전성을 검증하고자 하였다. 하중 및 경계조건은 정상상태의 주행을 고려하여 설계하중인 23kN/m를 적용하였으며, 차량의 낙하 및 비상주행시를 고려하여 스키드 낙하하중인 24kN/m를 적용하여 레일과 침목의 체결방식에 따라 볼트체결과 용접체결의 경우에 대하여 해석을 수행하였다. 정적해석시 응력집중은 볼트체결 및 용접체결의 두 경우 모두 침목의 선단부분에서 발생하였으며, 최대응력은 231MPa로서 볼트체결방식의 경우에서 발생하였다. 피로수명은 응력-수명방법을 사용하여 예측하였으며, 평균응력의 영향을 고려하기 위하여 Goodman 관계식을 적용하고 Damage 계산에는 Miner법칙을 이용한 피로해석 결과는 주어진 해석조건에서 모두 요구하는 피로수명 이상의 피로수명을 나타내었으며, $10^8{\sim}10^9$ 싸이클을 무한수명으로 가정하면 볼트체결방식의 낙하하중상태($1.21{\times}10^6$)를 제외하고 모두 무한수명을 갖는 것을 알 수 있었다.
