Ventilation equipment performs a central role to maintain comfort subway environment. So ventilation equipment of Busan subway line No.1 is required to improve thermal environment. In this study, conditions of thermal environment are presented to improve ventilation equipment at existing subway station platforms by measuring thermal environment of platforms operated ventilation equipment at 14 stations of Busan subway line No.1. AWS of data in comparison with the neighbouring platforms and thermal environment analysis. Thermal environment status of subway platform analysis results are as follows. 1)Daytime platform temperature was higher than outdoor temperature, but night time platform temperature was lower than outdoor temperature. 2)Train wind had effect on improving thermal comfort in platform. 3)When outdoor temperature is below $24^{\circ}C$, inlet air is able to lower than platform temperature. 4)Considering existing ventilation system, night purge systems is useful to improving platform thermal environment.

Recently, many people are interested in the electromagnetic fields(EMF), so we measured the strength of electromagnetic fields in the carriages of national railways and subways. We also measured on the platforms of national railways and subways. The strength of EMFs on the platforms of national railways was stronger than that of subway's platforms. EMF measured on the platform during railway carriage's arriving and leaving was stronger than that without carriages. The strength of the magnetic fields in the carriages of national railways was measured stronger than that of subway's carriage while national railway is run by AC while subway is run by DC. Also The strength of the subway line 8 were measured stronger two to three times than others.

A lesser degree of research is available with respect to indoor radon characteristics associated with occupants' exposure. The present study evaluated the radon levels in several public-access buildings or underground facilities, and their temporal variation in underground facilities. Radon measurements were conducted in 2005 and 2006, utilizing a continuous radon detector. A solid alpha detector (RAD7) was utilized to measure indoor radon levels. The mean radon concentrations obtained from the building or facilities were in a descending order: platforms of Daegu subway line 2, 2005 (32 $Bq/m^3$), hot-air bathroom (14 $Bq/m^3$), basement of office building (14 $Bq/m^3$), underground parking garage (14 $Bq/m^3$), underground shop (12 $Bq/m^3$), nursery (10 $Bq/m^3$), platforms of Daegu subway line 2, 2006 (9.0 $Bq/m^3$), platforms of Daegu subway line 1, 2006 (8.9 $Bq/m^3$), supermarket (7.9 $Bq/m^3$), hospital (7.3 $Bq/m^3$), and second-floor of office building (5.7 $Bq/m^3$). In general, underground-level facilities exhibited higher radon levels as compared with ground-level facilities. It was suggested that ventilation is an important parameter regarding the indoor levels of a subway. There was a decreasing or increasing trend in hourly-radon levels in a subway, whereas no trend were observed in a basement of office building. In addition, the radon levels in the subway lines 1 and 2 varied according to the platforms. The radon levels in the present study were much lower than those of previous studies. The average annual effective dose (AED) of radiation from indoor radon exposure was estimated to be between 0.043 and 0.242 mSv/yr, depending on facility types. These AEDs were substantially lower than the worldwide average AED (2.4 mSv/yr).

To prevent safety accidents such as injury or death from falling by blocking platforms from trains, the Seoul Metropolitan Subway Corp. have gradually installed screen doors in platforms of 115 subway stations in Seoul on lines 1, 2, 3, and 4. Installation in nine areas among those has been completed and screen doors are being operated as a model operation. Traffic signs should be clear for users. The essential functions of signs should be fully investigated from the aspect of user as well as the visual beauty and recognition. Signs should be able to provide users with information regarding location, position, directions, etc. Particularly, safety and convenient signs should be visually and sensually correlated. However, the entire screen doors in platforms installed in line 2 subway in Seoul are used for commercial advertisement, consequently, the functions and roles as public signs are not fulfilled aggravating inconvenience for users. In this study, cases have been studied to investigate requirements for user-oriented sign system in platform and public sign space to fulfill the functions of sign system in platform. Using an anthropometry approach, the study aimed to obtain the space to install the sign system and to systemize necessary and sufficient conditions for user-oriented system for platform in which screen doors have been installed using. The study suggests fundamental information to obtain the space of public sign system on the entire screen door.

Air quality analysis is done for subway trains and subway platforms of subway line number 2 using mobile environmental sensor modules. $CO_2$ and PM10/PM2.5 particulate concentration are investigated for screen door systems, under-ground platforms, and transfer stations. These results would help to increase the quality of life of subway railroad passengers.

This study aims to derive the operation method of a comprehensive ventilation system which is capable of providing passengers with safe exit paths from platforms in onboard fire situations. To accomplish this, the airflow distributions in subway platforms under 6 types of tunnel vent system were calculated in addition to having analyzed diffusion behaviors of smoke and heat exhaust in such states by performing 6 kinds of different ventilation scenarios in a 3-D Fire Dynamic Simulation (FDS) simulation model. In order to recommend the mechanical smoke exhaust operation mode, Subway Environmental Simulation(SES) is used to predict the airflow of the inlet and outlet tunnel for the subway station to clarify the safety evaluation fir the heat and smoke exhaust on subway fire events.

지하철 승강장의 혼잡도 관리는 열차지연방지, 승객안전 등의 서비스수준 향상을 위해 중요하다. 승강장 혼잡개선정책을 효과적으로 수립하기 위해서는 혼잡수준을 정확하게 추정하는 방안이 필요하다. 현재 지하철 승강장 혼잡도는 1-2년 주기의 특정 장소 및 시간에 계수방법(Hand Count)로 측정되어 시공간적 제약이 존재한다. 한편 스마트카드자료는 매일 실시간 생성되는 빅데이터 자료로서 승강장혼잡 추정을 위한 기초자료로서 적합하다. 본 연구는 카드자료를 승강장 혼잡도를 동적으로 추정하는 모형을 제안한다. 연구는 우선 혼잡도를 지하철 네트워크를 동적으로 이동하는 승객이 승강장에 집중하는 수요개념으로 정의한다. 이를 위해 지하철 네트워크에서 개별승객이 동적으로 이동하는 궤적을 모형을 통하여 파악한다. 또한 지하철승강장에 집중 및 분산되는 승객흐름을 1분 단위로 산정한다. 마지막으로 승강장구조별 단위 실용대기면적에 따른 승강장 혼잡도를 계산한다.

Heights of a platform above the rail for the passenger train in the country are classified into two categories such as the low level (500mm; mainline) and the high level (1,135mm; metropolitan subway line) platforms. In order to operate similarly both a mainline railroad and a metropolitan subway line, as the requisite door safety system, it is necessary to develop the doorstep equipment of the rolling stock regardless of both the low and high level platforms. In this study, the application of doorstep equipments to use mixed with two types of platforms are examined on the supposition that the train only for the low level platform stops in the both low and high level platforms.
