The development of railway vehicles such as new mechanism of railway vehicle or design parameters of suspension have been used the application of scaled roller rig to the study of railway vehicle dynamics. In this paper, the critical speed was compared between full scale and 1:5 scale of numerical model. And to verify the simulation results, the critical speed was confirmed using the 1:5 scaled roller rig. According to the results, we expect that the developed roller rig will be used in the study for the dynamic characteristics of railway vehicle.

A wheel/rail contact module for dynamics analysis of railway vehicles is developed. The developed module is based on non-linear contact and FASTSIM algorithm which calculates contact forces. And the module is incorporated into the general purpose program DADS using user-defined subroutines. The simulation results of this developed program is compared to those of the railway vehicle dynamics analysis program AGEM. Since the module is based on DADS, various simulation environments can be considered.

A standard framework of CFD(Computational Fluid dynamics) analysis for railway system has been developed to evaluate the overall aerodynamic performance of railway system and has been adopted to numerical simulation of the pressure field around KTX train. The framework is composed of standard aerodynamic model and standard aerodynamic performance to customize the general CFD solution process reflecting the characteristics of railway system such as various operation mode and performance factors. The results show that the standard framework of CFD analysis for railway system can provide objectivity and consistency to the CFD analysis for railway system and the pressure field around KTX train has been successively solved.

The development and implementation of an appropriate methodology for the accurate geometric description of track models is proposed in the framework of multibody dynamics and it includes the representation of the track spatial geometry and its irregularities. The wheel and rail surfaces are parameterized to represent any wheel and rail profiles obtained from direct measurements or design requirements. A fully generic methodology to determine, online during the dynamic simulation, the coordinates of the contact points, even when the most general three dimensional motion of the wheelset with respect to the rails is proposed. This methodology is applied to study specific issues in railway dynamics such as the flange contact problem and lead and lag contact configurations. A formulation for the description of the normal contact forces, which result from the wheel-rail interaction, is also presented. The tangential creep forces and moments that develop in the wheel-rail contact area are evaluated using : Kalker linear theory ; Heuristic force method ; Polach formulation. The methodology is implemented in a general multibody code. The discussion is supported through the application of the methodology to the railway vehicle ML95, used by the Lisbon metro company.

The algorithm for relation of contact status, track shift, and contact force caused from wheel/rail contact geometry is presented. Grafting this algorithm into a algorithm of general program analyzing mechanical system, the program for time domain simulation of railway vehicle dynamics, called CASOTD, was developed. In addition, as applied example of CASOTD, the dynamic simulation of railway vehicle running on a rail joint and a irregularly alinemented rail is done in this paper.

Railway vehicles are capable of indicating several types of instability. This phenomenon, which is called hunting motion, is a self excited lateral oscillation that is caused by the running velocity of the vehicle and wheel frail interactive forces. The interactive forces act to change effectively the damping characteristics of railway vehicle systems. This paper will show the impact of instability on the transfer function behavior using damping characteristics of secondary suspension. The vehicle dynamics are modeled using a 17 degree of freedom considering linear wheel/rail contact. The paper deals with certain condition of the damper characteristics that one is about various damping coefficient and another is equipped damper direction.

윤축 동역학 해석은 철도차량 동역학 해석의 정밀도를 결정하는 핵심 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 정밀한 3차원 차륜-레일 접촉 해석을 윤축의 강체 운동 방정식에 적용하는 방법으로 3차원 윤축 동역학 해석을 수행하였다. 곡선 주행시 플랜지 접촉에 의해 차륜-레일 2점 접촉이 발생할 때 윤축의 동역학 해석이 가능한 수치해석 절차를 개발하였다. 윤축의 구속조건식과 강체 동역학 방정식을 Runge-Kutta 방법을 이용하여 수치적분을 수행하였다. 제안된 윤축 동역학 해석 결과는 VI-RAIL을 이용한 해석결과와 비교 분석하여 타당성을 검증하였다.

A design method of railway wheel profile with objective function of equivalent conicity considering wheel dimension constraint, two points contact problem between wheel and rail was proposed. New design method shows good results. New wheel profile generated from optimization process shows better dynamic performance compared with initial profile as the purpose of wheel profile design. And to verify the design method with testing the stability of new wheel profile, we conducted a critical speed test for new wheel profile using scale model applied scaling method of railway vehicle dynamics. The result of critical speed test show good agreement with that of numerical analysis. From the above results, it is seen that the design method with objective function of equivalent conicity is feasible and it could be applied to design new wheel profile efficiently.

This paper presents a simplified dynamics of railway vehicle for a tilting train simulator. The tilting train simulator has 6 electric-driven actuators and a visualization system with 1600mm-diameter dome screen. The each system shares the data by ethernet. In order to analyze the dynamics of railway vehicle and transfer the results of the analysis to the other system of the tilting train simulator in realtime base, We assumed the tilting train as a simplified rigid body model with primary and secondary suspensions. The simplified vehicle model has a 17-DOF. Through the running analysis on the tight curve with various radius, we verified the simplified vehicle model.

본 논문은 경부고속철도 구간에 건설된 교량 중 연속 PSC Box 교량에서의 현장계측 및 동적설계 기준에 대한 검증을 수행함으로써 대상교량의 동적안정성 확보 여부를 확인하였다. 연구결과 고속선 구간의 대표적인 2연속 PSC Box 교량은 고속주행 열차하중 하에서의 동적거동에 대해 안정적인 것으로 나타났으며 교량설계 시 적용한 설계기준들은 적합한 것으로 실험적으로 검토되었다. 또한 향후 고속철도 교량설계 시 연속교 교량을 채택하는 것에 대한 합리성을 입증할 수 있었다. 또한 고유진동수를 감안한 열차속도 조정 및 교량 경간장 조정 등을 반영한다면 보다 경제적이고 최적화된 고속철도 교량 설계가 가능하리라 판단된다. 아울러 교량의 동적거동에 대한 안정성을 지속적으로 관리하기 위해 측정자료를 누적 관리하고 이를 체계적으로 분석한다면 본 연구결과는 유지관리 측면에서 고속철도 교량의 안정성 평가에 중요한 자료로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
