Tilting train has been developed to increase the operational speed of the trains on conventional lines which have many curves. This train are tilted at curves to compensate for unbalanced carbody centrifugal acceleration to a greater extent than compensation produced by the track cant, so that passengers do not feel centrifugal acceleration and thus trains can run at higher speed at curves. This paper investigated train formation of TTX(tilting train express) with maximum operation speed 180 km/h.

The occurrence of TTX in ciliated protozoa was investigated in order to clarify tetrodotoxin (TTX) accumulation mechanisms in marine organisms. Tissue culture bioassay, HPLC, and GC-MS analyses confirmed the occurrence of TTX in Euplotes mutabilis and also in bacteria isolated from the culture medium. Fluorescently labeled bacteria (FLB) were prepared with those bacteria, and predation by E. mutabilis was observed. The results indicated that TTX in bacteria can be transferred to higher trophic levels through the food chain.

In this paper, the crush characteristics of a tilting train express (TTX) M-car design are evaluated with a head-on collision scenario. Its body shell is divided into three parts - front end, middle section, and rear end. For each part, crush-force relation is evaluated numerically through 3-dimensional shell element analysis with LS-DYNA. TTX's embody structure is a hybrid type structure made of steel and composite materials. Composite sandwich panels are modeled as layered shells whose layers have different material properties. And a damage material model is used to consider the effect of stiffness degradation during deformation. The crush characteristics obtained from these calculations will be used as material modeling data of full-rake collision analyses.

In order to determine the most suitable material system which can achieve the lightweight design and fulfill the design requirements of carbody structures of Korean Tilting Train eXpress (TTX), aluminum carbody, composite carbody, and hybrid carbody combined with aluminum and composite structures were considered in present study. The finite-element analysis was used to verity the design requirements of the TTX carbody structures with the material system being considered in the design stages. The stresses in the carbody structures and deflections of underframe against static load cases were checked as design criteria. The results show that the hybrid carbody structures are beneficial with regard to weight savings and structural integrity when compared to aluminum and composite carbody structures.

The present study was undertaken to separate the available components effectively, such as tetrodotoxin(TTX), docosahexaenoic acid(DHA, C22:6,ω-3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5,ω -3) from pufferfish liver waste, which are known to have high values as bioactive materials. By using ultrafiltration, it was possible to separate high contents of 68mg TTX from pufferfish liver waste. In contrast, by activated charcoal column, it was to obtain about 54mg TTX. The recovering ratios were 65.3% and 45.0% in the two different methods of ultrafiltration and activated charcoal column, respectively. From the results of HPLC and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry(GC-MS), the obtained toxins were identified to be TTX and its derivatives. In addition, it was also possible to obtain 72.3g DHA and 11.4g EPA from 1kg of pufferfish liver by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). These amounts of DHA and EPA were also 17.70% and 1.04% in the total lipid of pufferfish liver oil from analysis of gas chromatography(GC), respectively.

Intracellular recordings were obtained from Purkinje cells in rat cerebellar slices maintained in vitro. Adding tetrodotoxin to the superfusion solution produced a typical pattern of repetitive burst firing consisting of a cluster of action potentials followed by a long hyperpolarization. TTX-induced oscillatory activity was not due to modulation of membrane potential although underlying mechanisms for maintenance of oscillatory activity were influenced by membrane voltage. The mechanism of TTX-induced oscillation was not related to the presence or amplitude of $I_h$ and could still induce the oscillatory activity after blockade of $I_h$ by cesium. The result from an experiment in which QX-314 was injected intracellularly strongly suggested that TTX-induced oscillatory firing activity was due to blockade of post-synaptic $Na^{+}$ currents intrinsic to PCs.

틸팅 열차는 곡선 구간에서 차체가 안쪽으로 기울어져 고속으로 회전해도 탈선하지 않는 열차를 말한다. 여러해 동안 한국철도기술연구원에서는 이 열차를 개발해왔다. 이 논문에서는 그동안 개발되어온 틸팅 열차의 동역학해석을 수행하였다. 이를 통해서 국제기준에 맞는 안정성과 주행성능을 지니고 있는지 확인하고 향후 속도 개선의 기본 자료를 생성하였다.

The Korean Tilting Train eXpress (TTX) with service speed of 180km/h have been developing using hybrid design concept combined with a sandwich composite structure for the carbody and stainless steel structure for the underframe to match the challenging demands with respect to cost efficient lightweight design for railway carriage structures. The sandwich composite structure was used to minimize the weight of the carbody, while the metal underframe was used to modify the design easily and to keep the strength of underframe for the installation of the electrical equipments. The sandwich composite structure was 23 meters long, 3 meters wide and 2.7 meters high, and cured as one body in a large autoclave equipment with the length of 30 meters and the diameter of 5 meters. The joint part between the carbody structure made of sandwich composites and the metal underframe was joined by the proposed design.

Numerical analysis of aerodynamic characteristics was differently performed according to the running situation of the Korean Tilting Train eXpress (TTX) that would be introduced for an improvement in efficiency of the used railroad track. Fluent6.0 was used for the analysis of Non-tilting case, Tilting case and Passing-by case with the model of TTX. As a result, the aerodynamic drag had little difference between Tilting and Non-tilting case. However, pressure contour under the train of Tilting case was not symmetry because the gap between a train and the ground was different at both sides. And this disparity of pressure worked on the side force. In Passing-by case attraction and counterattraction occurred alternately and affected to the opposite train. When two trains were side by side, the maximum attraction was generated especially. Through an analysis of pressure wave in tunnel a large variation of pressure was generated by the bluff nose of TTX. The results in this study would be good data for the aerodynamic characteristic on TTX and provide important information to judgment of running safety.
