Railway signaling safety system organizes equipments and facilities of railway, increases transport efficiency and assures safe operation of railway. In the early days of signaling system railway managers made sure of safety by using relay logic technology based on fail-safe concept. But the development result of computer and science having been introduced to railway industry, railway signaling equipments begin to be operated through micro electronic control system. Accordingly high speed and high density operation of train became possible. Software reliability and safety technology that controls important systems of railway was highlighted. In the middle of 1990s the standard or guideline of railway reliability and safety were studied and established, and are being reviewing in Europe, Japan etc. Our reliability and safety technology have depended largely on foreign countries. In this study we performed a basic study about the reliability of software that controls the railway signaling system.

정부는 대구 지하철 대형 화재 사건을 계기로 2004년 철도안전법 제정과 동시에 철도안전 종합계획 추진을 통해 철도안전관리를 도모해 왔다. 그러나 여전히 열차 충돌, 탈선 및 화재 등 대형 인명피해로 이어질 수 있는 열차사고가 지속적으로 발생하고 있음에도 불구하고, 사후 처리 중심의 안전관리시스템이 운영되고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 기존의 분산되어 운영되고 있는 안전검지 장치 데이터를 통합하여 선제적 안전 관리를 위한 실시간 철도 안전 감시제어 시스템 개발에 대한 기본 프레임워크를 제안하고자 한다. 또한 철도 안전 감시제어 시스템의 효과적인 작동 여부를 모니터링하기 위한 안전성과모니터링지표에 대한 개발 방향을 제시하고자 한다. 제안된 프레임워크는 향후 추진될 실시간 철도 안전감시 제어시스템의 구현을 위한 기틀을 마련할 수 있을 것으로 전망된다.

Risk management is an important part of system assurance and it is widely used in safety-related system. Railway signal system is one kind of safety-related system and its most important goal is to guarantee the safety of railway system. The method based on risk management can find and solve the security issues of railway signal system more effectively. This paper introduces the basic conception of risk management, studies the whole process of risk management and related tools and techniques and discusses some key points qualitatively combining with the particularity of railway signal system.

2004년 이후 철도안전에 대한 투자확대의 결과로 철도사고 발생건수 및 관련피해는 지속적으로 감소하여 2009년 이후에는 선진국 수준의 안전성을 유지하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 사고율 개선에도 철도안전에 대한 국민의 우려는 감소하지 않고 있으며, 추가적인 개선을 요구하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 철도안전의 현재 수준에 대한 정량적 평가를 통해 철도안전에 대한 목표설정, 안전대책마련 등의 정책 수립에 활용할 수 있도록 하였다. 철도사고에 대해 철도 사고율이 낮은 선진국 및 도로교통 사고율과 정량적인 비교연구를 수행하였다. 또한 사고 종류별 원인분석을 통해 현재 철도안전수준의 평가를 위한 기초자료를 마련하였다.

As a mass transportation system, a railway contains potential risks that may result in a high death rate and property losses. Accordingly, Railroad Safety Technology R&D Corps. is adopting the plan of the construction of Railway Safety Test Facilities as a part of the Railway Total Safety Project to enhance the railway safety, and carrying out researches on effective project management methods with Systems Engineering techniques. When a system or a service is realized, such as the Railway Total Safety Project, it needs to be verified by requirements and the process of verification is to check whether customers/stakeholders requirements have been properly transformed into a system or a service. Recently, building the standardized verification system up could be the solution to reduce possible system-failed risks. To support that, we propose the more effectual verification method of constructing the Railway Safety Test Facilities applying the systems engineering tool to the research.

There is no universally agreed classification of human error, nor is there one in prospect. Thus, a taxonomy is usually made for a specific purpose. To seek the types of human errors in the environment of man-machine interface under the railway industry, we develop a cognitive information processing model incorporating the human's mental states. Using the model, this study investigates the types of human errors about the railway workers. Thus, a survey is conducted for railway safety personnel-locomotive engineers, station employees, and train commanders- in Korean railway company. Through the survey that is designed to investigate four types of human errors from the Questionnaires composed of thirty Questions, we analyze the types of human errors related to railway safety according to affiliated offices, operation shifts, age, and working years. Finally, from the insights of the results some guidelines for the railway safety management are presented.

In accordance with the development of recent computer technology, railway signaling software became more complex for the intellectualization. Therefore the importance and dependency of railway signaling system on the computer software is getting more increased further, and the testing for the safety and reliability of railway signaling system software became more important. It is started to become influential as very important issue for the reliability and safety of vital embedded software like railway signaling system. The software coding which can have an effect on the safety at the coding level of software shall not be included preferentially, for the safety of software, and must be checked. This thesis suggested an automated testing tool for coding rules on this railway signaling system software, and presented its applied result for railway signaling system software. The testing items in the implemented tool had referred to the international standards in relation to the software for railway system and MISRA-C standards. This automated testing tool for railway signaling system can be utilized at the assessment stage for railway signaling system software also, and it is anticipated that it can be utilized usefully at the software development stage also.

This study tried to figure out the framework of safety culture in railway industry to analyze root causes of railway incidents and accidents at Korean National Railway. Through the literature survey, authors found some critical dimensions common to railway safety culture such as employees' belief in the managers' management weight on safety and productivity, recognition of safety importance, risk taking attitude, practice of safety meeting before and after doing work, communication between management and employees and among drivers, traffic managers and infrastructure maintenance workers, safety reporting practice, safety and performance appraisal, effectiveness of safety audit, safety training, work place arrangement, incidents and accidents investigation, and safety knowledge management.

The Centralized Traffic Control(CTC) System of Urban Railway is an element(subsystem) of the Urban Railway system to aim safety operation and efficient management of rolling stock in accordance with a train scheduling program in train operation ways. That's why the CTC System must be developed considering systematic and safety-guaranteed methods such as RAMS(Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety) refereed to IEC standards. The CTC System is consists of rolling stock, signaling, power supply, communication, and mechanical equipment and preforms control and remote monitoring functions. The technical activities considering safety process are very important at such an early stage of development in a railway project. This paper introduces RAMS activities and an independent safety assessment by $3^{rd}$ Party focused on a safety applied to a development of the CTC system of Urban Railway and proposes the experiences as well practices.

Railway bridge, contact of vehicle needs to design considering the running safety about the running train load of the railway bridge, ride comfort and dynamic safety. Also, upper structure of the railway bridge has to satisfy design standard about moving load(train). So, the railway bridge has to satisfy the requirement for vertical acceleration of the bridge deck, vertical displacement of the bridge and face distortion, which is suggested railway design standard in Korea(2011.5.). In this study, it was investigated and evaluated to the running safety about the running train load of the railway bridge, ride comfort and dynamic safety with railway design standard for steel composite(Steel Box Girder) railway bridge considering KTX, freight train and standard train load.
