Abstract Tilting train has been developed to increase the oprational 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 developed PDM(product data management) to make a system engineering of TTX(Tilting Train eXpress) with maximum operation speed 180 km/h.

In this paper, the design improvement for high speed train carbody, which made by aluminium alloy, was described. The design improvements was achieved in fields of economical efficiency, extrusion, welding, assembling, etc. This paper also describes the result of carbody test. The purpose of the test is to evaluate an safety under the load and operation condition. This strength test based on KTX and reference code is UIC 566 and JIS E 7105. The test results shows that aluminium carbody structural have enough strength for all part.

To make railway carbody light in weight has advantages at some aspects of both manufacturing and maintenance. Recently, railway carbodys of steel structure have been lightened their weight by using aluminum extrusion plate. for the additional lightening of railway carbody, an optimal design which maintains proper strength and minimizes weight must be achieved. Optimization which is used with finite element analysis for aluminum extrusion plate has the disadvantage of consuming much time. In this paper, the method of equivalent material property which is available to FEA code is established using the method of equivalent stiffness. This method for plate is expanded into the method for railway carbody structure with plates and shells. An objective function is established for maximum stiffness of unit aluminum extrusion plate using established method of equivalent material property. We performed an multi-objective optimization using the penalty function method. As a result, recommendable shapes and sizes of unit extrusion plate for under-frame of high speed train is presented.

This study was carried about the basic design and FEM analysis of aluminium carbody for articulated trailer of Korean High Speed Train of maximum operating speed of 350㎞/h. The integral design by extra-long extruded sections made possible through the use of aluminium alleys and continuous window shape with skin were adopted in the basic design of aluminium carbody. Articulated structures in each trailer's end were welded laterally on both sides of gangway. FEM analysis showed that the design satisfied the specified load criteria. Futher study should be carried out for optimal design which enables the weight of carbody structure to reduce adequately.

As the evaluation of loading characteristic on tilting mechanism is the most important one of the function test of tilting mechanism, the changing characteristic of load must be investigated on tilting of carbody for both the static and running condition of train. In this study, we reduced the load of tilting mechanism by adjusting the interface of carbody and bogie such as the weight balance, level of underframe, height of leveling valve, height of axle box and center position of tilting actuator with the characteristic curve of load for optimal condition of the tilting mechanism obtained in the previous study. Furthermore, the factor and effect of the interfacial structures respecting the load of tilting mechanism was evaluated by analyzing the changing characteristic of load obtained in the process of adjustment of interfaces. From these data, we will propose the maintenance standards for interfacial structures and tilting mechanism in order to minimize the load of tilting mechanism by analyzing in detail the characteristic of load for the main factors of the interfacial structure effecting on the load of tilting mechanism.

This study has evaluated the analysis results for the under structure of Korean tilting train(TTX). TTX has many equipments which are attached below the composite carbody. Loads due to equipments on the under structure are very complex and various types as operating condition. So applied loads are considered weight of equipments and acceleration. From the analysis, the structural safety of under structure was assessed.
