Station is an important building in high-speed railway, and its vibration and noise may significantly affect the comfort of waiting passengers. A coupling vibration model for train-structure system is established to analyze and evaluate the vibration level of a typical waiting hall under dynamic train load. The motion of a four-axle vehicle with two suspension system is modeled in multi-body dynamics with linear springs and dampers employed. The station is modeled as a whole finite element structure which is 113 m in longitudinal and 163.5 m in lateral, and the stiffness of the station foundation is considered. According to the assumptions that both wheel and rail are rigid bodies and keep contact to each other in vertical direction, and the wheel/rail interaction and displacement coordination in horizontal direction is defined by the simplified Kalker creep theory, the vehicle spatial vibration model has 27 degrees-of-freedom. An overall analysis procedure is made of the train moving through the station, by which the dynamic responses of the train and the station are calculated. According to the comparison between analysis and test results, the actual connection status between different parts of the station is estimated and the vibration level of the waiting hall is evaluated.

Traction motors for driving and power conversion devices using semiconductor switch are equipped with a transportation systems such as an electrical railway system. Power conversion devices have the possibility of malfunction by external electromagnetic waves. As a result, these could affect the safe operation of the railway. Moreover, the electromagnetic waves above safe limits will be harmful to the passengers inside the railway vehicles or anyone working around the rail-track. For this reason, the importance and need about the reliability check and complement of electromagnetic waves generated from the IPT(Inductive Power Transfer) system have been suggested for the safe application of the IPT system to the railway system. In this study, prediction for the electromagnetic wave properties was conducted through FEM(Finite Element Method) analysis of 5kW-class IPT system design model. Next, the 5kW IPT system prototype was made and then the small-scaled railway vehicle was made to mount the IPT system and the energy management system. Finally, the electromagnetic waves generated from the real small-scaled IPT system were measured and analyzed, and then the reliability check of predictions by FEM analysis were carried out.

Dynamic analysis is necessary for the High-Speed Railway vehicle which aims to run on max 400km/h. Especially, dynamic simulation using CAE(Computer Aided Engineering) can help to reduce the time of development of the High-Speed Railway vehicles. Also, it helps to reduce prices and improve the quality such as safety, stability and ride. There are many dynamic software for a railway vehicle, such as Vampire and ADAMS-Rail. There are limitations for each software and difficulties to analyze overall dynamics for entire railway system. To overcome these limitations, in this study, a program which can simulate entire railway vehicles was developed. This program is easy to use because it was developed using C++, which is object-oriented programming language. In addition, the basic platform for the development of dynamic solver is prepared using the nodal, modal coordinate system with a wheel-rail contact module. Rigid, flexible and large deformable body systems can be modeled by a user according to the characteristic of a desired system. Its reliability is verified by comparison with a commercial analysis program.

감속구동장치는 모터에 회전력을 차륜에 전달하는 중요한 장치로써 가장 큰 고장원인 중 하나는 기어의 접촉 피로손상에 의한 것이다. 이로 인해 주행 시 심각한 영향을 미칠 수 있기 때문에 주행안전성 확보를 위한 이상진단 모니터링시스템 기술이 요구되고 있으며, 이상진단을 위한 모니터링 시스템 개발을 위해 고장이 없는 감속구동장치의 기초 데이터 분석이 중요하다. 기어의 주요 이상진단방법 중 고장원인파악 및 조기진단에 주로 사용되는 진동신호분석법을 적용하여, 본 논문에서는 고장이 없는 고속철도차량(KTX, KTX II) 감속구동장치를 대상으로 실물시험과 실차시험을 수행함으로써 고장이 없는 감속구동장치의 이상진단에 필요한 진동특성분석을 실시하였다.

본 논문에서는 안정성과 안전성 해석을 통하여 차세대 고속철도(HEMU-400X)의 주행성능을 예측하였다. 차량의 설계단계에서 주행성능을 예측하는 것은 차량의 안전 확보를 위해 매우 중요하다. 안정성 해석을 통하여 차륜의 등가 답면구배에 따른 임계속도를 계산하였다. 임계속도는 UIC518에 근거하여 등가 답면구배 0.15에서 400km/h가 달성 가능함을 보였다. 또한 안전성 해석을 통하여, 동역학 모델의 횡방향과 수직방향의 가속도 값을 시뮬레이션 하였다. 안정성 해석은 UIC518에 근거하여 440km/h의 속도로 30km의 구간을 주행하였다. 그리고 계산된 값들은 모두 UIC518의 최대 허용 가속도 값보다 적게 나타나는 것을 확인하였다.

기존선 속도향상 시에 주행안전성을 고려한 기존선 구간별 최대 운행가능속도에 대한 실용적인 기준 을 제시하여 기존선의 곡선부 및 완화곡선부 통과 시 속도를 향상시켜야 한다. 본 연구에서는 탈선의 위험도가 높은 곡선부 통과하는 열차의 고속향상을 도모하기 위하여 실제 선로조건인 남성현-청도 상 하행 구간에서의 곡선부 구간별 통과시 주행안전성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 곡선반경별 주행속도를 실제 선로 조건에서의 기존 속도 대비 5-20% 향상시켜 주행안전성 해석을 수행하였다. 주행안전성 해석 결과, 기존 주행속도 대비 약 15% 이하의 속도조건에서는 탈선 계수와 윤중감소율이 허용기준 이내로 나타나 남성현-청도 상 하행 전 구간 내에서 속도 향상의 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

Speeding up of railway vehicles requires weight reduction of the vehicle body. However, when the vehicle body is lighter, the sound insulation performance for blocking the noise from the outside is reduced. Aluminum is an important material used in the bodywork of transportation vehicles such as railway vehicles, aircraft, and automobiles. In this study, the bending stiffness and sound insulation performance of foamed aluminum with sandwich structure are investigated experimentally. The transmission loss is measured in accordance with the international standard ASTM E 2249-02. The mass-law deviation is used to evaluate the sound insulation performance per weight. In order to examine the applicability of the foamed aluminum sandwich panel to railway vehicles, the analysis of bending stiffness and an experimental review are carried out at the same time.

Research on fuel cell systems attracting attention as an environmentally friendly energy source has been actively conducted. And research is being conducted on railway vehicles that use direct current power generated by a fuel cell as an energy source. In this paper, a two-phase interleaved bidirectional DC-DC converter has been proposed which can supply electric energy of a battery to a traction motor during powering and charge the battery with regenerative energy during braking. Therefore, the topology of the energy storage system applied to the railway vehicle was analyzed, and the simulation was performed by constructing the power conversion system by this topology. Experiments were also conducted through hardware design and fabrication based on the simulation analysis results, and the validity of the hardware implementation was verified.

From the view point of railway vehicle dynamics, the interaction between wheel and rail have an huge effect on the behavior of the vehicle. This phenomenon is an unique motion, only for railway vehicles. Furthermore, close investigation of the backgrounds of the interaction is the key to estimate the dynamic behavior of the vehicle, successfully. To evaluate the model including flexible bodies such as car body and catenary system of the next generation express train, it is necessary to develop proper dynamic solver including a wheel rail contact module. In this study, wheel-rail contact module is developed using the general purpose dynamic solver. First of all, the procedure for calculation of the wheel-rail contact force has been established. Generally, yaw angle of the wheelset is ignored. Sets of information are summarized as tables and splined for further uses. With this information, normal force and creep coefficient can be extracted and used for FASTSIM algorithm, which has been shown good reliability over years. Normal force and longitudinal, lateral force at the contact surface are also calculated. Those data are verified by commercial railway simulation program 'VAMPIRE'. This procedure and program can offer a basic process for estimation of the dynamic behavior and wear of the wheel-rail system, even while running on the curved rail. Finally, multi-dimensional inspection tool will be developed including the prediction of the derailment.
