The purpose of this study is to develop an accident hazard index model in order to be used for the evaluation of regional traffic safety and to develop a driver violation index model in order to identify the primary causes of traffic accidents. The accident hazard index model was developed considering the accident rates based on population and the vehicle registration. The driver violation index model was developed considering the accident rates of each item of driver violation. Using the models developed in this study, it is identified that in the provincial level analysis the degree of the traffic safety of Chungbuk, Chungnam, and Kyungbuk Province are evaluated to be low. In the county level analysis of Kyungnam Province, the degree of the traffic safety of Yangsan, Euirung, Haman, Sachun and Tongyung County are evaluated to be low. Also, it is found that the major driver violations causing accidents in the nation are driving by unlicensed drives, improper passing, and improper railroad crossing : in Kyungnam Province, improper passing is the most driver violation.

An intensive study was conducted for the crash worthy structural design of the recently developed Korean High Speed Train (KHST). Two main design concepts were set up to protect both crews and passengers from serious injury in heavy collision accidents, and to reduce damage to the train itself in light collision accidents. A collision against a movable 15-ton rigid obstacle at 110 kph was selected from train accident investigations as the accident scenario for the heavy collisions. A train-to-train collision at the relative velocity of 16 kph was used for the light collision. The crashworthiness behaviors of KHST were numerically evaluated using FEM. Analysis results using 1-D collision dynamics model of the full rake consist and 3-D shell element model of the front end structure showed good crashworthy responses in a viewpoint of structural design. Occupant analyses and sled tests demonstrated that KHST performed well enough to protect occupants under the considered accident scenarios. Finally our numerical approaches were evaluated by a real scale collision test.

The existing safety-management manual is confined to list data based on regulations, and only provide ways to prevent accidents/incidents for particular work which accidents occur frequently. As it is difficult to understand the complete process involved the work, we can not expect the manual to function as a guide to prevent unfortunate events. When establishing WBS(work breakdown structure) of railway line engineering, consideration of the characteristics of train operation will enable many benefits. Therefore in this research it is conducted to materialize it in the manual. Main contents in this research are to review the way that change complete work performance process and person in charge of different tasks into WBS(work breakdown structure), and trough the newly developed WBS , the ways to improve roles and functions of the manual which Korean Railroad made are recommended.

This study reveals that rail reform which separates infrastructure from train operation requires more safety activities to train operator than before. To meet these requirements the train operator, KNR, should build up more expertness, accept accidents investigation by the third party, establish and operate safety knowledge management system, and manage a forum which facilitates the communication between the parties concerned.

Recent trends in rail industry can be characterized by the multifunctionality and very high-speed modes of operations. In particular, the adoption of the unmaned or operatorless operations has been getting increased attention in which case ensuring systems safety is crucial. On the other hand, according to the result of analyzing rail accidents, the human/operator errors have turned out to be one of the key causes of the accidents. Therefore, the effort of improving the work environment of locomotive cabs is quite necessary in order to decrease the accidents. The objective of this paper is studying on how to incorporate the factors related to the train operators in the design of the locomotive cabs and also on how to evaluate the design results obtained, which is subsequently reflected in the generation of the test and evaluation procedure. The approach taken is based on systems engineering, yielding the procedure document as a result. The results obtained in the paper can be useful in confirming the design of locomotive cabs utilizing the domestic human/operator measure. Also, the way of achieving the objectives can be utilized to cover the expanded rail systems development with appropriate design activities added.

Frequent accidents occur when workers at construction sites leave the safety zone, and particularly in the past 5 years, 9 fatal accidents occurred at the Korea Railroad Corporation due to train accidents on other tracks during track work. With the Severe Accident Punishment Act taking effect in January 2022, it is a priority to secure a safe work environment for workers at industrial (construction) sites. Therefore, there is a need to manage workers' departure from the safety zone (construction zone) and to facilitate communication within the construction zone. In this study, a mobile edge computing CCTV system is proposed that uses geofencing to determine whether workers are working in the danger zone, which can judge and respond in real-time to the ever-changing field environment. The proposed system is mobile and flexible, rather than server-based fixed CCTV. However, since it is designed mainly based on images, it has limitations in recognition rate depending on the environment such as distance, viewing angle, and illumination. As a way to compensate for this, it is required to develop more reliable equipment by combining technologies such as LiDAR and Radar.

본 연구는 철도표면상에 발생하는 노후 현상 중 하나인 결함 검출을 위해 학습데이터를 생성함으로써 결함 검출 모델에서 더 높은 점수를 얻기 위해 진행되었다. 철도표면에서 결함은 선로결속장치 및 선로와 차량의 마찰 등 다양한 원인에 의해 발생하고 선로 파손 등의 사고를 유발할 수 있기 때문에 결함에 대한 철도 유지관리가 필요 하다. 그래서 철도 유지관리의 자동화 및 비용절감을 위해 철도 표면 영상에 영상처리 또는 기계학습을 활용한 결함 검출 및 검사에 대한 다양한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 일반적으로 영상 처리 분석기법 및 기계학습 기술의 성능은 데이터의 수량과 품질에 의존한다. 그렇기 때문에 일부 연구는 일반적이고 다양한 철도표면영상의 데이터베이스를 확보하기위해 등간격으로 선로표면을 촬영하는 장치 또는 탑재된 차량이 필요로 하였다. 본연구는 이러한 기계적인 영상획득 장치의 운용비용을 감소시키고 보완하기 위해 대표적인 영상생성관련 딥러닝 모델인 생성적 적대적 네트워크의 기본 구성에서 여러 관련연구에서 제시된 방법을 응용, 결함이 있는 철도 표면 재생성모델을 구성하여, 전용 데이터베이스가 구축되지 않은 철도 표면 영상에 대해서도 결함 검출을 진행할 수 있도록 하였다. 구성한 모델은 상이한 철도 표면 텍스처들을 반영한 철도 표면 생성을 학습하고 여러 임의의 결함의 위치에 대한 Ground-Truth들을 만족하는 다양한 결함을 재 생성하도록 설계하였다. 재생성된 철도 표면의 영상들을 결함 검출 딥러닝 모델에 학습데이터로 사용한다. 재생성모델의 유효성을 검증하기 위해 철도표면데이터를 3가지의 하위집합으로 군집화 하여 하나의 집합세트를 원본 영상으로 정의하고, 다른 두개의 나머지 하위집합들의 몇가지의 선로표면영상을 텍스처 영상으로 사용하여 새로운 철도 표면 영상을 생성한다. 그리고 결함 검출 모델에서 학습데이터로 생성된 새로운 철도 표면 영상을 사용하였을 때와, 생성된 철도 표면 영상이 없는 원본 영상을 사용하였을 때를 나누어 검증한다. 앞서 분류했던 하위집합들 중에서 원본영상으로 사용된 집합세트를 제외한 두 개의 하위집합들은 각각의 환경에서 학습된 결함 검출 모델에서 검증하여 출력인 픽셀단위 분류지도 영상을 얻는다. 이 픽셀단위 분류지도영상들과 실제 결함의 위치에 대한 원본결함 지도(Ground-Truth)들의 IoU(Intersection over Union) 및 F1-score로 평가하여 성능을 계산하였다. 결과적으로 두개의 하위집합의 텍스처 영상을 이용한 재생성된 학습데이터를 학습한 결함 검출모델의 점수는 원본 영상만을 학습하였을 때의 점수보다 약 IoU 및 F1-score가 10~15% 증가하였다. 이는 전용 학습 데이터가 구축되지 않은 철도표면 영상에 대해서도 기존 데이터를 이용하여 결함 검출이 상당히 가능함을 증명하는 것이다.

A railway rail will be corroded by the repetitive sea wind and fog in the splash and tidal zone such as Youngjong grand bridge. And these rusts of rail could be increased by increasing service period, and it frequently occurred the safety accidents or disorders in electrical problem. In this study, the sacrificial anode cathodic protection method was proposed as a measures for reducing the corrosion of the railway rails in the oceanic climate conditions. As the results of immersion test using the salt water during four months, the sacrificial anode cathodic protection method using the aluminum anode(Al-anode) was evaluated that a distinct effect on corrosion reduction in the rails. Therefore the sacrificial anode cathodic protection method was experimentally proven that a disorders in aspects electric and signal of railway operation condition such as direct fixation track system in Youngjong grand bridge could be prevented by reducing rust falling from the rail. In addition, the installation conditions of the anodes directly affect the transmission range of corrosion potential, the sectional loss of anode, and the corrosion reduction effect. Therefore, to expect the corrosion reduction effect of rails under the oceanic climate conditions for railway track, it was important to adopted the appropriate spacing of anode installation by considering the actual field conditions.
