고속철도 궤도검측은 공사관리는 물론, 궤도유지관리 측면에서 매우 중요한 과제이며 향후 유지보수 시 작업계획수립, 작업량산출, 열차속도제한 등 유지보수 시 기본적인 자료로 제공되는 만큼 궤도검측치의 정확성은 매우 중요하며, 이러한 관점에서 국내 궤도검측차(EM-120)의 검측성능과 정확성을 검증하고자 하였다. 본 논문에서는 현재 일반철도구간에 대한 궤도검측 시 사용하고 있는 궤도검측차 (EM-120)의 선형검측자료를 Spectrum 분석한 결과, 파장 1m 부근의 검측치에 Noise가 있는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한 이러한 Noise를 제거하기 위해 Spectrum 분석을 통한 새로운 Filter를 적용한 결과 실제 궤도틀림치에 보다 더 근접한 검측결과를 얻을 수 있었으며 사용기간에 따른 틀림전진 경향 또한 파악할 수 있었다.

There are two methods to make a distinction of deterioration of high-speed railway track. One is that an administrator checks for each attribute value of track induction data represented in graph and determines whether maintenance is needed or not. The other is that an administrator checks for monthly trend of attribute value of the corresponding section and determines whether maintenance is needed or not. But these methods have a weak point that it takes longer times to make decisions as the amount of track induction data increases. As a field of artificial intelligence, the method that a computer makes a distinction of deterioration of high-speed railway track automatically is based on machine learning. Types of machine learning algorism are classified into four type: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, semi-supervised learning, and reinforcement learning. This research uses supervised learning that analogizes a separating function form training data. The method suggested in this research uses SVM classifier which is a main type of supervised learning and shows higher efficiency binary classification problem. and it grasps the difference between two groups of data and makes a distinction of deterioration of high-speed railway track.

In designing the high-speed railroad track, it is important to utilize appropriate track components to maintain uniform stiffness and ensure track alignment within the tolerance set for that system. In this regard, continuous welded rails (CWRs) were introduced to the Korean railways. Yet the installation of CWRs can result in an adverse impact due to the track/structure interaction on bridge sections yielding variations in the stiffness at the expansion joints. It may also impose additional axial force, generate excessive stress or deflection on track, and loosen the ballast at the ends as a bridge deck contracts or expands owing to a thermally-induced dynamic response. The risk is even greater in a long bridge deck, resulting in track longitudinal irregularities, deteriorating passenger's comfort, and increasing maintenance efforts. This study evaluates the performance of ZLR and their impact on track longitudinal irregularities through the track measuring results on a test section installed the ZLR in order to minimize the thermally-induced responses and the maintenance efforts for the high speed railway bridges.

간선철도 고속화에 대비하여 유지보수를 고려한 최적 자갈도상 궤도구조 정립을 위한 기초연구로 국내 자갈도상 궤도 구성품들을 조합한 실대형 시험을 실시하여 궤도 침하 특성을 분석하였다. 실대형 시험 결과 유지보수 저감을 위해서는 패드만을 고탄성화 하였을 경우의 효과는 미비하였으며, 패드의 고탄성화와 더불어 침목 중량화 또는 침목 중량화 및 도상두께를 증가 하였을 경우에 그 효과가 크게 나타났다. 간선철도 고속화에 따른 최적의 자갈도상 궤도구조는 초기 건설비와 본 논문에서 제시한 궤도 침하 특성에 따른 유지보수비를 고려한 경제성 분석을 통해 최종 정립되어야 할 것이다.

The Ballast Track has been widely applied in traditionally due to low initial cost and abundant elastic property. But the disadvantages of Ballast track are; labor-intensive and costly maintenance, weak in high-speed and heavy axial load, in additionally need wide cross section of tunnel and massive substructure in viaduct. Therefore, recent applications tend to more and more towards slab track such as Gyeungbu high speed rail and existing line. The slab track increased the stability, resistance and durability of track, and save maintenance cost compare to the Ballast Track. But the slab track have weakness of track elongation by sub-ballast differential settlement and that threat safety of train operation. Therefor the slab track need to prevent cracks in concrete ballast for insure the durability of slab track. In this paper, review main items and its expected effects of the slab track maintenance standards that control sub-ballast settlement and concrete ballast cracks.

현행 철도건설기준에서 종곡선과 완화곡선의 경합은 궤도형식에 관계없이 허용하고 있지 않다. 그러나 이러한 기준은 주로 자갈도상궤도의 유지보수의 어려움 때문에 정립된 것이다. 콘크리트궤도는 자갈도상궤도에 비해 유지보수 및 구조안전성 측면에서 장점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 콘크리트 궤도의 경우, 열차의 주행안전성 및 승차감 기준을 만족하는 범위내에서 어느 정도의 선로경합은 완화할 필요성이 있다. 본 연구에서는 종곡선과 완화곡선의 경합여부에 따라 도상종별 열차의 주행안전성 및 승차감, 그리고 궤도작용력을 비교 분석하였으며, 그 결과 경합된 경우도 주행안전, 승차감 및 궤도작용력 기준을 만족하는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서, 비록 자갈도상궤도에서의 선로경합은 많은 유지보수를 필요로 하기 때문에 적용될 수는 없다 할지라도, 콘크리트궤도에서는 유지보수 및 구조적 장점을 고려할 때 종곡선과 완화곡선의 경합이 적용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Australian railway networks possess a large amount of aging timber components and need to replace them in excess of 280 thousands $m^3$ per year. The relatively high turnover of timber sleepers (crossties in a plain track), bearers (skeleton ties in a turnout), and transoms (bridge cross beams) is responsible for producing greenhouse gas emissions 6 times greater than an equivalent reinforced concrete counterparts. This paper presents an innovative solution for the replacement of aging timber transoms installed on existing railway bridges along with the incorporation of a continuous walkway platform, which is proven to provide environmental, safety and financial benefits. Recent developments for alternative composite materials to replace timber components in railway infrastructure construction and maintenance demonstrate some compatibility issues with track stiffness as well as structural and geometrical track systems. Structural concrete are generally used for new railway bridges where the comparatively thicker and heavier fixed slab track systems can be accommodated. This study firstly demonstrates a novel and resilient alterative by incorporating steel-concrete composite slab theory and combines the capabilities of being precast and modulated, in order to reduce the depth, weight and required installation time relative to conventional concrete direct-fixation track slab systems. Clear benefits of the new steel-concrete composites are the maintainability and constructability, especially for existing railway bridges (or brown fields). Critical considerations in the design and finite element modelling for performance benchmarking of composite structures and their failure modes are highlighted in this paper, altogether with risks, compatibilities and compliances.

자갈궤도는 압축성 재료인 자갈과 흙을 기초로 하여 건설되므로 공용 기간 중 승차감을 확보하고 수명연장을 위해서는 유지보수작업이 필수적이다. 현재 수행되고 있는 자갈궤도에 대한 유지보수 작업은 EM120 검측차를 이용한 궤도틀림 측정 결과로부터 결정된다. 궤도틀림은 궤도에 변형이 발생된 결과를 측정하는 것으로, 궤도틀림을 유발시키는 근본적인 원인을 평가해 볼 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 궤도틀림의 원인이 궤도를 지지하는 도상과 노반에 있다고 판단하고, 도상 및 노반의 싱태를 평가할 수 있는 비파괴탐사법 (GPR4과 PFWD)을 개발하고 이를 경부선 500m구간에 적용하였다. 개발 작용된 방법은 층 두께 평가법과 궤도수직강성 평가법 및 도상 노반 시추법이다. 도상 및 노반 상태평가 결과를 기 수행된 궤도틀림 검측결과 및 유지보수작업과 비교함으로서 불필요한 유지보수작업 구간을 평가하였다.

Currently the train operating environment to affect track irregularity is changed rapidly such as speed-up, linear improvement and rolling stack upgrade. The recent track maintenance criteria of track irregularity was quoted from past Japan's, and the needs of revision of criteria are increased because of the rapid change in train operating environment. In case of enhance the track irregularity criteria, it secure driving safety and riding comfort but maintenance cost are increase. And also decrease ballast durability by frequent corrective work. In case of mitigate the criteria, it decrease driving safety and riding comfort, but save the maintenance cost. The study for enacting rational criteria did not carry out so far. In this study, survey the domestic and international track irregularity and case study for track irregularity inspection results and maintenance history for guideline of enacting irregularity criteria study.

According to continuos welded rails on a bridge, temperature changes bring about the expansion of the bridge deck adding axil forces on the track. Moreover, the ballast on the bridge deck expansion joint is moved due to the bridge deck. If bridge decks are longer, the influence is greater, loosening ballast, causing track irregularities, and deteriorating passengers' comfort. Considering structure of bridge itself and tolerance of track irregularities caused by the loosened ballast on bridges, the maximum length of a deck should be less than 80m, which is the same as the standard of the French railway. In this study, an interaction between the expansion related to the bridge length and irregularity in longitudinal level referring to measurements and maintenance works performed in the high-speed railways was analyzed. This research shows that installation of sliding plate or vertical ballast stopper is not a good option since it is difficult to install. On the other hand, installation of movable fastener or gluing is easy but its influence is insignificant. To conclude, switch tie tamping or manual tamping is more effective than others.
