In large station with high density traffic, trains is hardly controlled by CTC but by station dispatcher because CTC has difficulties in monitoring all states of affairs happening within the station such as departs and arrivals of many trains from different lines and shunting trains between yards and platforms, etc. Therefore station dispatcher has to make quick decision about how to schedule all trains including trains to arrive and depart before long. And such decisions become harder when an unexpected delay occurs. This study suggests a mathematical model and algorithm about how to detect in advance and resolve efficiently the conflicts occurring within a station and it will be shown how to reduce delay using our approach by means of analysing the schedule of ChyungRyangRi station.

In large station with high density traffic, trains can be hardly controlled by CTC but by station dispatcher because CTC has difficulties in monitoring all states of affairs happening within each station such as departures, arrivals of many trains from different lines and shunting of trains to move between yards and platforms, etc. Therefore the station's dispatcher has to make quick decision about how to reschedule the times and routes for all the trains scheduled within a specific time window. And such decision becomes harder when an unexpected delay occurs because a delay occurring in a train propagates other trains as time goes on. Generally, it is called the conflict detection and resolution to adjust beforehand the distorted schedule due to a delay to original schedule. Our research is different from the state of the arts in that ours determines simultaneously the routes and the times of arrival and departure of trains, although others do only the arrival and departure time of the trains without considering the alternative routes and shunting of the station. This study suggests a mathematical approach for how to detect in advance and resolve efficiently the conflicts occurring within a station and it will be shown how to reduce delay using our approach by means of analysing the schedule of ChyungRyangRi station.

When evaluating the general subgrade states such as geology, stiffness, underground water, compaction and deformation in the Gyeongbu high speed railway, some applicable testing methods should be selected because lots of trains are currently running. The applicable methods includes not only non-destructive tests such as GPR test, electricity resistivity test, MASW proving, but also standard penetration test (SPT), core test, elastic wave tomography through drilling boreholes and measurements using settlement measuring system or inclinometer, etc. In order for evaluating the subgrade states in the Gyeongbu high speed ralway, this study performed GPR test in several sections and drilling boreholes whose locations were chosen after comparing GPR test results and track maintenance history. Furthermore, the progress of subgrade deformations was analysed by comparing previous and this time GPR test results. The results of this study shall be used to understand the general states of currently operating Gyeongbu high speed railway.

The recent trains are almost being operated by the mechanical propulsion force to drive the gear and wheel with the traction motor. However Magnetic Levitation Vehicle is differently operated. Magnetic Levitation Vehicle is applied with Linear Induction Motor(LIM) that has many advantage like to high capability of going up to slope, low noise, easy to control of speed. So domestic and many advanced countries are interested in Magnetic Levitation Vehicle and they have been studying about it continuously. Thus this paper is studied the LIM test method of static states and guess the optimum driving point by characteristic of static states for LIM. The test items are measurement of thrust force by changed air gap, measurement of thrust force and normal force by changed slip frequency etc.

This paper presents the non-destructive evaluation of a high-speed railway bridge using train-induced strain responses. Based on the train-track-bridge interaction analysis, the strain responses of a high-speed railway bridge under moving trains with different operation status could be calculated. The train induced strain responses could be divided into two parts: the force vibration stage and the free vibration stage. The strain-displacement relationship is analysed and used for deriving critical displacements from theoretical stain measurements at a forced vibration stage. The derived displacements would be suitable for the condition assessment of the bridge through design specifications defined indexes and would show certain limits to the practical application. Thus, the damage identification of high-speed railways, such as the stiffness degradation location, needs to be done by comparing the measured strain response under moving trains in different states because the vehicle types of high-speed railway are relatively clear and definite. The monitored strain responses at the free vibration stage, after trains pass through the bridge, would be used for identifying the strain modes. The relationship between and the degradation degree and the strain mode shapes shows certain rules for the widely used simply supported beam bridges. The numerical simulation proves simple and effective for the proposed method to locate and quantify the stiffness degradation.

There are some previous studies that utilize constant impedance models or constant current models for electric trains to perform the static analysis of AT feeding systems. These mentioned models have some merits of linear systems but yield erroneous results because of the innate restraints of the models since linear models cannot represent the features of constant power in inverter-driven trains. From these reasons, it is suitable that the train be considered as a constant load model when it drives or as a constant source model when it applies regenerative brake. However, excessive rise of regenerative voltage during the braking may damage the vehicle itself and the feeding systems so the voltage must be restricted below a certain value. Keeping these facts in minds, we suggest new methods of analyzing AT feeding systems using the constant power models with the conditions of voltage constraints. The simulation results from a sample system using the proposed method illustrate both the states of system variables and the supply-demand relation of power among the trains and the systems very clearly, so it is believed that the proposed method yields more accurate results than conventional methods do.

In this paper constant power models for electric trains have been used to analyze the steady states of the AT feeding systems. There are some previous studies utilizing constant impedance models or constant current models. These mentioned models are easy to use, but even so they don't yield exact results because of the innate restraints of the models since linear models cannot represent the characteristic of constant power in inverter-driven trains. It is reasonable that the train be considered as a constant load model when it drives or as a constant source model when it applies regenerative brake. Nonlinear equations which reflect constant power model for train have been developed by considering mutual impedances between wires and AT's turn-ratio of 1:1, then these equations have been solved by N-R iterative method. The proposed method doesn't need any specific assumptions through either the process of developing equations or the process of acquiring solutions, so it can be said to be stricter than other conventional methods.

현재 철도 역사의 승객 위험영역과 보안영역 등의 감시를 위해 수십대의 CCTV를 널리 이용하고 있다. 그중에서 가장 빈번한 사고가 발생되는 곳은 승객의 열차 승하차가 이루어지는 승강장 영역이다. 하지만 사고 예방과 신속한 대응을 위해 역무원이 여러 대의 CCTV를 항시 모니터링 하기는 불가능하다. 따라서 위험상황을 자동으로 인지할 수 있는 영상처리 기술을 이용한 승강장 모니터링 시스템이 요구되며, 이를 위해서는 우선적으로 승강장에서의 정확한 열차상태 판단이 필요하다. 본 논문은 비전기반 승강장 모니터링 시스템을 위한 승강장에서의 열차상태에 대한 검지방법을 제안한다. 제안된 검지 방법은 승강장에서의 열차 점유영역을 분석하여 열차의 진입(IN), 진출(OUT), 정지(ON), 없음(OFF)의 4가지 생태를 판별한다. 제안된 검지방법의 성능 평가을 위해 서울메트로 4호선 동작역과 남태령역을 대상으로 열차상태 검지결과를 제시하였다.

In this study, a novel mountain train system was developed that can run along a steep gradient of 180 ‰ and sharp curve with a minimum radius of 10 m. For this novel mountain train, an embedded precast concrete rack rail track was implemented to share the track with an automobile road and increase constructability in mountainous regions. The embedded rack rail track is connected to a hydraulically stabilized base (HSB) layer with shear anchors, which must have sufficient longitudinal resistance because they bear most of the traction forces originated from the rack rail and longitudinal loads owing to the steep gradient. In addition, the damage to the shear anchor parts, including the surrounding concrete, must be strictly limited under the service load because the maintenance of shear anchors inside the track is extremely difficult after installation. In this study, the focus was made on the shear anchor behavior and design an embedded rack rail track, considering the serviceability and ultimate limit states. Accordingly, the design loads for mountain trains were established, and the serviceability criteria of the anchor were proposed. Subsequently, the resistance and damage of the shear anchors were evaluated and analyzed based on the results of several finite element analyses. Finally, the design method of the shear anchors for the embedded rack rail track was established and verified.

The railway industry is constrained by barriers within itself, which prevent it from competing effectively with other means of transportation, particularly road transportation. Therefore, many countries have adopted the policies that aim to remove barriers to providing international transport services by creating a common framework for railway industry. Recently, the European Union has produced the European Interoperability Directives, which aim to remove the technical problems involved in running trains between member states. In this respect, it is important to harmonize the technical requirements and specifications of Korea railway industry. This paper presents an action plan for the advancement of railway technical specifications in Korea. For this, the railway law and regulations of other countries are reviewed. Also the technical problems and operational barriers of railway industry are analyzed in Korea. This will help transportation agencies to resolve the technical problems of criteria in Korea railway industry.
