  • The maintenance of the turnout is composed of signal field and track field on business, the electrical and mechanical field on system. adjustment and maintenance carry forward through coordination with these fields. In the case of turnout equipment used in a first phase of Seoul-Busan high-speed train, it is treated by classifying as mechanical adjustments and electrical adjustments. Mechanical adjustment is conducted with focus on fine adjustment to meet maintenance standards limits(1mm or less) about interval of basic rail and tongue rail about each part of track transition equipment. This refers to mechanical adjustments performed mainly with physical changes and movement characteristics between basic rail and tongue rail by considering the overall environment surrounding track side of section installed track transition equipment. However, these series of maintenance are conducted in state that high-speed train is not in the process from 1 am to 4 am at night, but common workers for maintenance are not familiar with the operation and checking about various situation, and the workers are even insufficient. Maintenance training using mixed reality is conducted in the place of business, we tried to overcome several problems of safety and time reduction through this training.

  • The latest technical development of steel plate girder railway bridge are developing in ways to maximize its durability of materials in use of high strength steel and efficiency of maintenance and management by the introduction of simplified and standardization ideas. In addition to this, it is also expected to reduce the cost of bridge construction and to simplify the process of bridge manufacturing. Referring to this, composite few plate girder railway bridge is highly recommendable that is very economical with the fine exterior. In this paper, it will analyse the variation of dynamic behavior of existing composite few plate girder railway bridge with ballast caused by modified Slab Track through interpretation of limited enzyme in order to obtain the existing data for improvement of Slab Track system from Ballast Track system. Consequently, it can help maximize economic efficiency and structural capability. As a results, although the natural frequency by modified Slab Track are decreased, it is hardly influencing on the safety of railway bridges. It is also evident in the case of slab deck with a reduced scale in comparison with Ballast Track. Therefore, it is expected to reduce the cost of a railway bridge plan. And, it can expect the synergistic effect of the ensure long term durability of bridge caused by decreased stresses of bottom flange due to reduced dead load. As a result, the analytical study are carried out to investigate the composite few plate girder railway bridge could be the optimal design method for the dynamic safety of a girder section.

  • The concrete track system on domestic urban transit has being constructed since 1974. Because a maintenance and repair of concrete track system is convenient, a construction is increased. The concrete track system on domestic urban transit is constructed 71.8% of total track system length and constructed variously, for example STEDEF, LVT, ALT and so on. Recently, railway noise is issued as environment problem. The method for mitigation of urban transit noise is required. In this study to study noise characteristics on concrete tracks we measured noise by concrete track types and analysis the result.

  • It is necessary to have a maintenance of track and its equipment for safety and s the railroad transportation. In the paper, we examine the safety problems, protecti and composition of protection system for safety within the track which RTRI develo system consists of a mobile business tool carried by each worker. a terminal of t platform temporarily installed in the maintenance car. a connector attached to signalling system and a central administrative device installed at the control cen used independently to detect positions of workers and maintenance cars. Each m correctly grasp the geometrical relations with other workers cars and other objects conditions based on the state information exchanged between the machines by the control protocol. the track occupancy monitor information broadcast by th administrative device and the line information. The protection system executes its f this basic structure.

  • Geosynthetics have been studied especially Korean Railway earth works from the outset and have proved successful in both technical and economic terms. Hitherto Geosynthetics have been given consideration chiefly in dimensioning the requisite track subbase thickness, but have not been considered when calculating the thickness of the frost protection layer. this often made it impossible to reduce the thickness of the subbase. The article therefore puts forward a proposal for considering the German Geosynthetics in dimensioning the requisite thickness of the frost protection layer.

  • An active application of concrete track is being expected for the future construction of Korean railroad. For the successful concrete track construction and design in earthwork areas, the residual settlement should be reasonably estimated using the proper method. The concrete track is extremely vulnerable to the damage of residual settlement. However, at the transition areas such as bridge approach, differential settlement will likely occur due to difference of stiffness, poor drainage and poor ground treatment. The maintenance is very difficult for excessive settlement on existing line, it is need to constrain the residual settlement in step of design. In this paper, it is performed the analysis of the residual settlement measured data, test results and reference to understand the residual settlement behavior of concrete track roadbed

  • The purpose of this study is development of the diagnosis system to preventative maintenance in the on-board measuring systems for in-cab electric inspection systems of high speed railway. The on-board measuring systems can inspect precisely whether ground signal system operate stably. In this paper, we recognize characteristics of the track circuits and confirm whether the wave of current matches the on-board measuring data through the electric modeling method for high speed railway. it is necessary to develop GUI visual programs that can simulate abnormalities of the on-board measuring data in many ways, and the visual program is designed to diagnosis in the case of track circuit equipment's function decreased in advance.

  • Recently, continuous welded rail (CWR) track has been adopted for railway track structure of great advantages of reducing maintenance costs, and of increasing life time of track components and the comfort of passengers. But, in this case, a temperature or mechanical load will result in high stress and the track breakage or buckling may occur Especially when the CWR is laying on the bridge structure, the relative displacement of these structure can be increased and this results in the instability of track. In this paper, the main factors affect on the longitudinal rail force are discussed and the computer program is developed for the analysis of rail force considering the interactions with sub-structure.
