The accident fatality rate has decreased by more than 90% compared to 2006, due to the safety management and safety investment based on the Rail Safety Act. Most railway safety indicators, including fatality rates, have improved significantly from 60% to 80%, reaching the level of developed countries in terms of most railway safety indicators. However, the only staff fatality rate at work is not improved, and it is 3 to 5 times higher than that of developed countries. Most of the fatality occurred during employee's work recently occurred due to accidents hit by train while track work. In principle, when operating track need to check or maintenance, the operation of the train should be stopped and the work carried out. However, in Korea, due to the highest passenger density and train operating density in the world, it is caused by a structural problem that requires workers to enter the track while the train is running and perform various tasks such as maintenance and inspection. In this study, we analyzed the risk of accidents caused by hit by trains on the track, which is the biggest cause of staff fatality, using the main statistics of the last 10 years. In detail, the scenarios of the main causes of hit by trains and workers were formed to suggest the effectiveness of the current preventive measures and supplementary.

Subway is electrified railway system nowadays, in which liquid dielectric transformers have been widely used, though mold type transformers are replacing it. The transformers supplies large electric power and have innate hazards causing accidents under operation. A number of researcher have carried out on failures of it and have oriented to identify transformer's failure causes and how to maintain it healthy state. The transformer failures can cause serious accidents which can provoke economic loss and leads persons to kill. In this paper, we carried out a safety activity to reveal hazards and to estimate risk of subway liquid dielectric transformers using FMEA, HAZOP and What-if methods. In case of installing safety devices in oil immersed transformer, we tried to evaluate an effect on a subsystem's failure rate. We proposed how to design subsystem failure rate and safety device failure rates.

Urban rail transit brings the benefits of various aspects of society. With the advent of fast and large trains, however, risk and scale of accidents have increased. Despite the fact that there is various safety features built into the modern metros, train faults happen from time to time. Especially, as urban railway vehicles in Korea have become deterioration rapidly, more advanced diagnosis methods are required to prevent various accidents. In this paper, we present diagnosis method for electrical wires to guarantee secure driving and authenticity more accurately in urban railway vehicles. Although there are kinds of conventional methods based on insulation resistance measurement and withstand test, it is extremely difficult to effectively diagnose obsolete equipments such as electrical wires and cables not new ones. This study is focused on development of diagnosis method and establishment of evaluation standard for electrical wires in urban railway vehicles.

본 논문은 서울교통공사 및 한국철도공사의 기관사를 대상으로 인적오류 위험요인과 관련 경험빈도에 대한 설문을 수행하여 기관별 운행시스템과 호선별 운행시스템 관점에서 오류유발 요인을 분석하였다. 도시철도 사고유발의 근본적인 원인 제거와 감소를 목적으로 하며 도시철도를 운영하는 시스템에서 발생하는 인적오류는 사고발생의 종류와 상황에 따라 대처하는 문제와 인지적 문제를 포함하고 있기 때문에 요인별 관점에서의 연구를 기반으로 접근하고자 한다. 인적오류를 감소시키는데 기여하여 도시철도 사고를 저감 하고 지속적으로 안전한 철도 운행이 될 수 있도록 하고자 한다.

Railway takes an important role of transporting massive passenger and freight. Accidents which occur related to trains have a risk of serious loss of lives, so those accidents need to be controlled urgently Therefore moving picture transmission system is required which transmits exact information of moving picture of accident status to CTC and also communication line is also required with it. By using WTB line as a wayside transmission line, railway telephones, fax and train service information are provided to local offices. As transmission line improving project, optical cabling work is being processed by phases. Therefore optical fiber line is more effective way for a communicating way between stations than coaxial transmission line. This Paper considers connecting method when optical fibers is used for moving picture data transmission of train accidents and its problems.

Recently the Emergency Response is very important issue in Korea because there are lots of damage of people and property. In this paper, we have studied person's injury related to emergency action to minimize the damage on KTX. We defined what Activities of the emergency response workers should take when the Person's injury occurs on the railway. This has been possible through the development of the scenario that is focused on the person's injury accident. We considered all kinds of environment of KTX related to emergency action of person's injury accidents. Finally, we developed the role and responsibility of emergency response workers against KTX person's injury accidents.

현재 철도 역사의 승객 위험영역과 보안영역 등의 감시를 위해 수십대의 CCTV를 널리 이용하고 있다. 그중에서 가장 빈번한 사고가 발생되는 곳은 승객의 열차 승하차가 이루어지는 승강장 영역이다. 하지만 사고 예방과 신속한 대응을 위해 역무원이 여러 대의 CCTV를 항시 모니터링 하기는 불가능하다. 따라서 위험상황을 자동으로 인지할 수 있는 영상처리 기술을 이용한 승강장 모니터링 시스템이 요구되며, 이를 위해서는 우선적으로 승강장에서의 정확한 열차상태 판단이 필요하다. 본 논문은 비전기반 승강장 모니터링 시스템을 위한 승강장에서의 열차상태에 대한 검지방법을 제안한다. 제안된 검지 방법은 승강장에서의 열차 점유영역을 분석하여 열차의 진입(IN), 진출(OUT), 정지(ON), 없음(OFF)의 4가지 생태를 판별한다. 제안된 검지방법의 성능 평가을 위해 서울메트로 4호선 동작역과 남태령역을 대상으로 열차상태 검지결과를 제시하였다.

본 논문에서는 도시철도역사 내 철도안전사상사고의 위험도를 분석하였다. 위험도분석을 위하여 9가지 역사 내 시설물의 위험도를 단순 평균한 값과 시설물별 가중치를 감안한 가중평균값을 사용하였다. 이를 바탕으로 서울메트로와 서울도시철도공사가 운영하는 도시철도역중 위험도가 높은 상위 10개역을 도출하였다. 이러한 위험도를 낮추기 위한 방안으로 서울메트로와 서울도시철도공사에서 역사 내 사상사고와 관련된 업무를 담당하는 60명의 전문가 설문조사를 실시하였다. 역사시설물별로 크게 사고확률을 낮추는 방안과 피해규모를 낮추는 방안으로 정리하였다. 각 대안별 위험도저감 효과를 5개 척도로 나누어 설문조사가 이루어졌다. 최종적으로 각 대안별 효과는 가중평균값으로 도출하였다.

This paper is described for the flame behaviors in light railway cabin by numerical simulation code, which can be interpreted the design parameters in terms of suppression the fire propagation and excavation the passengers safely. The results shows that the flame intensity(fire temperature, smoke density) depends on the firing points in cabin and propagates rapidly whole cabin space rather than modern subway cabin due to smaller inner space. The data will be used to how can be get the safety case, which is described on the operating principles for all facilities and logistics against to the light railway firing accidents.
