Advanced Railway countries are developing technologies of production and management for low-carbon and green growth of their railway industry to hold a dominant position under post-Tokyo protocol regime through integrated approach which uses environmental quantitative analysis of train life cycle by using LCA(Life Cycle Assessment). On the contrary, Korea railroad industry attempts to make an environmental improvement only for using regenerative energy and improvement in operating energy consumption through adapting reduction weight of material technology and etc. without systematic environmental analysis approaches such as comparing and analyzing energy consumption as well as GHG emission in each life cycle stages of train. Therefore, In this paper, low-carbon management and comprehensive environmental improvement for sustainable development of Korea railway industry through analyzing the result of life cycle analysis in abroad are suggested.

Successful opening and operating of High Speed Rail in South Korea make the Korean railway industry the world's five great powers. It provides an opportunity to enter overseas rail industry to the related companies actively. Lastly developing countries want to learn about Korea's development experience and apply to there country. Also development cooperation needs are increasing. The State Brand Committee is promoting the 'Hangeul advocacy and globalization' which is expanding technology to the overseas that can be grafted in the Korean railway system as well as contributing to the globalization policies. Korea Railroad Corporation can enhance the national brand and rise of the Name value simultaneously by disseminating of operation technology. It would be a worthy project. In this study, effective support for developing strategic partnerships with the developing countries can build a future of growth. And let me introduce strategic model for overseas business expansion that is combined the railway industry and the Korean.

The Committee on the Cost of Corrosion in Japan was organized in 1999 jointly by the Japan Society of Corrosion Engineering (JSCE) and the Japan Association of Corrosion Control (JACC). Corrosion cost as of FY1997 was estimated based on the Uhlig and Hoar methods similarly to that conducted in 1974. The estimated corrosion cost of 1997 was compared with that reported for 1974 with speculation on the change in industrial environment. The overall costs estimated by the Uhlig and Hoar methods for 1997 were 3,938 billion yen and 5,258 billion yen, respectively, which were equivalent to 0.77% and 1.02% of the GNP of Japan. The process of organization formation, procedures for analyses and the results of cost evaluation were described by adjusting a focus on transportation industry.

IEC 62278, a standard for Railway applications of RAMS, was established in 2002. This IEC standard is based on CENELEC EN 50126 and covered overall railway fields. Activities that had to be performed from concept to decommissioning and disposal of railway system life-cycle, were contained in this standard. On the flow of internationalization, our Railway Authorities and railway support industry need to understand and apply this standard to railway fields. In this paper Railway RAMS in IEC 62278 is introduced.

It is very important to ensure system safety during the process of developing a system. Railway system is also devoting a great portion for the safety. Nowadays many countries leading railway industry have their own system assessment process according to the situation of their train control system. In this Paper, several methods to derive Tolerable Hazard Rate are represented in the railway signalling system the characteristics of those methods are also considered respectively.

Generally, it is important to use the regenerative energy efficiently for decrease of inverter's consuming energy. From various industry sector (railroad, steel, crane etc), re-uses the regenerative energy which uses the regenerative converter unit, and gets a many profit from whole consuming energy. In this paper, we introduce development of the regenerative converter unit that supply the regenerative energy to power source and main drive inverter, and introduce the instance which is applied in the elevator.

The railway route and alignment planning have been executed with a limited number of alternatives based on the site pre-survey and the topographic map. This study developed an intelligent railway alignment planning program (ei-Rail) which can derive all the considerable design alternatives and provide the data for the alternative evaluation such as constructions cost, operation cost, and etc. According to the comparisons with prevailing planned railway projects, the time and cost for planning can be reduced as well as the construction costs. This program may contribute to the development of railway industry by reducing the time and cost for planning as well as the total project cost.

The formation of hydrophilic surface based on polymers has received great attention due to the anti-adhesion of bacteria on solid substrates. Anti-adhesion coatings are aimed at suppressing the initial step of biofilm formation via non-cytotoxic mechanisms, and surfaces applied hydrophilic or ionic polymers showed the anti-adhesion effect for bioentities, such as proteins and bacteria. This is attributed to the formation of surface barrier from hydration layers, repulsions and osmotic stresses from polymer brushes, and electrostatic interactions between ionic polymers and cell surfaces. The antifouling polymer coating is usually fabricated by the grafting method through the bonding with functional groups on surfaces and the deposition method utilizing biomimetic anchors. This mini-review is a summary of representative antifouling polymers, coating strategies, and antibacterial efficacy. Furthermore, we will discuss consideration on the large area surface coating for application to public facilities and industry.

The monitoring system is an absolutely required system for improving a performance to consider the situation for the hybrid generation of the photovoltaic (PV) and wind power (WP) energy experimental research complex. This system is to monitor with the railroad switching point heating system using LabVIEW to the hybrid generation of the PV and WP. The monitoring system of this paper is a program monitoring the hour, day and total of the voltage and current that made from the hybrid generation of PV and WP. In experiment, we acquired the power data according to time at the day of PV and WP. We have confirmed the possibility of the real time monitoring system using LabVIEW with the railroad switching point heating system as the hybrid generation of the PV and WP.
