  • Bimodal Tram is the newly developed vehicle for both the tracked way and the public road. Its operation system has some characteristics including BIS(bus information system)/BMS(bus management system) based on ITS(intelligent Transportation system) which is used presently in public transportation operation system. One of them is more accurate vehicle fleet control based on both magnetic maker position reference system and GPS(global positioning system) and the other is automatic vehicle control for emergency situations by the Bimodal Tram operation system which will be performed by the unified control and operation center. This paper has investigated the requirements and functional definitions necessary to construct the unified control and operation center for Bimodal Tram operation system which will be more efficient and secure public transportation system than the conventional ones.

  • 본 논문에서는 철도 구성요소 모니터링을 위한 효율적인 객체 분할 기법으로 사전학습된 SegFormer 모델의 적용을 제안하고, 객체 분할을 위해 보편적으로 사용되는 U-Net 모델과의 성능 비교 분석을 진행하였다. 철도의 주요 구성요소인 선로, 침목, 고정 장치, 배경을 분할할 수 있도록 라벨링된 데이터셋을 학습에 사용하였다. SegFormer 모델이 대조군인 U-Net보다 성능이 Jaccard Score 기준 5.29% 향상됨에 따라 Vision Transformer 기반의 모델이 기존 CNN 기반 모델의 이미지의 전역적인 문맥을 파악하기 상대적으로 어렵다는 한계를 극복하고, 철도 구성요소 객체 분할에 더욱 효율적인 모델임을 확인한다.

  • Safety is a most important parameters in underground railway transportation; Also stability of underground tunnel is very important in tunneling engineering. Design of a reliable support system requires an evaluation of both ground demand and support capacity. Iran's traditional railway tunnels are mainly supported with masonry structures or unsupported in high quality rock masses. A decrease in rock mass quality due to changes in groundwater regime creep and fatigue in rock and similar phenomena causes tunnel safety to decrease during time. The case study is an old tunnel in Iran, called "Keshvar"; it is more than 50 years old railway organization. In operating this Tunnel, until the several problems came up based on stability and leaking water. The goal of study is evaluation of the various reinforcement systems for supporting of the tunnel. The optimal selection of the reinforcement system is examined using TOPSIS Fuzzy method in light of the looming and available uncertainties. Several factors such as; the tunnel span, maintenance, drainage, sealing, ventilation, cost and safety were based to choose the method and system of designing. Therefore, by identifying these parameters, an optimal reinforcement system was selected and introduced. Based on optimization system for analysis, it is revealed that the systematic rock bolts and shotcrete protection had a most appropriate result for these kind of tunnel in Iran.

  • After conducting demonstration of transportation card for bus from Godeok-dong to Sangil-dong in 1996, due to continuously support for public transportation, the transportation card utilization of metropolitan public transportation passengers is currently going beyond 90%. In the current situation, transportation information system is mainly focused on road operation and control, offer of real time information and research of transportation information system using transportation card data which is differentiated by previous transportation information system is needed to study. This paper compare and analyze transportation information system, which is being used to each country, based on foreign examples of activating use of transportation card then introduce figure of advanced transportation information system which provide decision making feature for improving policy and institution of public transportation based on transportation card data, scientific analysis of passenger information, information of demand forecasting, variation and so on for constructing new route.

  • The rate of rise of the fault current in DC grids is very high compared to AC grids because of the low line impedance of DC lines. In AC grids the arc of the circuit breaker under current interruption is extinguished by the zero current crossing which is provided naturally by the system. In DC grids the zero current crossing must be provided by the circuit breaker itself. Unlike AC girds, the magnetic energy of DC grids is stored in the system inductance. The DC circuit breaker must dissipate the stored energy. In addition the DC breaker must withstand the residual overvoltage after the current interruption. The main contents of this paper are to ${\cdot}$ Explain the theoretical background for the design of DC circuit breaker. ${\cdot}$ Develop the simulation model in PSIM of the real scaled DC circuit breaker for 1,800V DC railway. ${\cdot}$ Suggest design guidelines for the DC circuit breaker based on the experimental work, simulations and design process.

  • There is need to reform the road-based logistic transportation system into the railway-based logistics transportation system in order to decrease the total social cost related with logistics transportation. And new transportation modes such as dual mode trailer (DMT) are under consideration, which are expected to decrease current market share of road. But, most of current studies about estimating economical efficiency are focused on developing the probabilistic choice model and then estimating the market share of each mode. We present an approach to compute the optimal market share of each mode in terms of total social cost. To do so, we suggest an optimization model capturing both user choice to maximize his utility and subsidy policy intended to minimize total social cost, simultaneously. Using this model, we present the optimal modal split of container freight.

  • It is expected that domestic railway vehicle operation companies may be subjected to GHG emission reduction when GHG emission system is enforced. This study aimed that reviewing on GHG emission system such as CDM, VCS and KCER, and analysing availability of GHG emission credit acquisition for railroad transportation sector. In order to estimate GHG emission credit, a GHG emission estimation methodology should be developed, which includes GHG emission baseline estimation and GHG emission monitoring method, MRV method and etc. Modal shift project, high speed train technology, straight lining project, mass transportation technology, operation optimization tehcnology and etc. may produce GHG emission credit.

  • In a signal control of the railway system, the first objective is to guarantee a safety of the train operation, and the second is to increase a frequency(a capability of the transportation) of the train operation. In order to express the capability of the transportation a terminology what is called a railroad line capacity is employed. The railroad line capacity means a maximum frequency of the train operation in a possible schedule of the one way operation for one day. During the last several years an improvement in the facilities of the train operation (railroad line extension, improvement in the stations, improvement in the signal facilities) has been achieved to increase the railroad line capacity. In this paper the authors deal with the case analysis which try to shorten headway and which has an impartible relation with increasing of the railroad capacity

  • This paper provides an overview of Pakistan Railways scheduling and rescheduling. First of all, Pakistan Railways is introduced with its brief history and importance in this country. Assets of this network with passengers and freight using this are given. Current hope less situation is leading to privatization of this system as well as promoting short distance traveler to use road and Government efforts to retain is also presented. Train scheduling in Pakistan is being done manually, based on manual time distance graph preparation and resolution of conflicts based on manager's experience and ability. In Real-time management of this traffic Lahore head office is connected with six control stations in the Pakistan, decision for resolution of any disturbance is coordinated among them. It is recommended that computer aided tools must be developed for this system to help traffic managers and it is needed to invest on the segments to increase their speed limits which might attract passengers to use this mode of transportation with high priority.
