In this paper, the ride comfort of a passenger coach installed with a KT23 type bogie was measured and evaluated through field test in operation routes. The ride comfort level was evaluated and analysed by ISO method and DIC method that were applied generally at railway fields. Particularly three evaluation methods, i.e., a simple method, a full standing method, and a full seating method of UIC513R standard, were fully applied to evaluate the ride quality. Also the vertical and lateral vibration levels on the floor were evaluated by peak-to-peak analysis method.

경부고속철도 교량은 대부분 콘크리트교량으로 2@40m와 3@25m의 박스거더교량의 대표적인 형식이다. 일부구간에서 단경간 또는 2경간 연속 50 m 2주형을 갖는 강합성교량이 건설되었다. 연행하는 차륜이 반복해서 통과하는 철도교량은 주기적인 동적하중에 의하여 공진이 발생할 수 있으며, 특히 고속전철이 통과하는 교량은 저속차량이 통과하는 일반철도보다 공진의 발생가능성이 클 뿐 아니라 고속으로 주행하는 열차의 주행안정성 확보를 위해서 엄격한 제한조건을 만족시켜야 하는 엄밀한 동적설계 조건을 갖게 된다. 그러한 조건 중에서 가속도의 제한 규정은 UIC에서 제안된 기준치로서 도상을 갖는 경우에 0.35g이하를 만족시키도록 요구하고 있다. 현재 KTX가 주행하는 교량에서는 일부구간 및 시점에서 규정치를 초과하는 값을 보이고 있는 것으로 계측되었으며, 그 원인 및 대책마련을 위한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 그러한 과도한 가속도의 원인 규명을 위한 각종 매개변수 연구와 그 해결책 마련을 위한 연구를 수행하였으며, 경제적이면서도 효과적인 진동저감 방안을 제시하고 있다.

The study is to analyze dynamo test results for various commercial pads in order to verify the performance of brake disk with CV-NCM cast iron. The developed brake disk will apply to 200 km/h tilting trains that is being developed as one part of project for speed-up on Korean existing railroad. The test program is made out suitably for braking condition and performance of test equipment by referring UIC 541-3. Two kinds of resin pad and one kind of foreign sintered pad suitable for 200 km/h trains are used as various commercial pad for the dynamo test. The data aquisition for the maximum and smallest temperature, hot spot, etc. on disk and pad is performed by using the thermocouples and thermal imaging cameras. From this research, we obtained braking characteristics between CV-NCM cast iron disk and pad of various material and will be utilized usefully as basis data of performance optimization of developing sintered pad.

To design railway vehicles to ensure comfortable running, ride comfort of human exposed on vibrating carbody should be considered. Also, to improve ride comfort for passenger coach, many factors should be analysed and evaluated. There are many factors as suspension characteristics of railway vehicle, track characteristics to run etc. In this paper, passenger coach sujected to test on specific routine were evaluated using test results. Test routine were divided by 13 sections to analyse more detail. And the characteristics of every section were analysed distributions of radius curves, tunnel and bridge which could give impact to ride comfort. The evaluation of ride comfort were accomplished by UIC and ISO methods.

Railway vehicle have three translational motions-longitudinal, vertical and lateral, and three rotational motions-rolling, pitching and yawing caused by track irregularity, wheel and rail characteristic, dynamic behaviors etc. The rolling motion in vehicle mainly happens in cases of the vehicles stationary and running on canted track. When the vehicle positioned in stationary on canted track, vehicle is inclined toward inside of installed cant due to gravity component. When the vehicle has running on a track with cant deficiency, vehicle is inclined toward outside of installed cant due to centrifugal force. The roll coefficient(s) is defined as the ratio between the angle of inclination of the vehicle($\eta$) and the angle of the rail level($\alpha$). This paper has noted the test method, test result and analysis result to calculate the roll coefficient according to UIC505-5, international standard

This paper describes the result of carbody load test. The purpose of the test is to evaluate an safety which carbody structure shall be considered fully sufficient rigidity so as to satisfy proper system function under maximum load and operating condition. Carbody material applied a stainless steel and an aluminum alloy, The stainless steel model is the carbody of a motor car which is delivering to KNR line 1 in 2002 and the aluminum alloy model is the carbody of a motor car which is delivering to GWANGJU line 1 in 2003. This strength test is based on "performance test standard for Electrical Multiple Unit, noticed by Ministry of Construction ＆ Transportation, in 2000" and reference code is UIC 566 and JIS E 7105.

주요 대중교통 수단에 있어서 승객의 서비스 질 향상을 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 국내외적으로는 UIC, ISO, KS등에서 규격으로 제시되고 있으며 이에 부합하기 위한 일련의 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 현재까지 국내에서는 무인 운전시스템이 없어 승차감 등은 운전자의 운전 조작의해 판단하였으나 무인 운전되는 고무차륜 AGT 경량전철 시스템을 개발함에 따라 ATO측면에서의 제어가 중요하게 부각되었다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고무차륜 AGT 경량전철 시스템에 최초로 CBTC 을 적용하여 무인운전의 과정을 기술하였다.

Many kinds of methods have been developed to carry out transverse analysis of prestressed concrete(PSC) box girder bridges. However, most bridge engineers only use the simple frame model to analyze PSC box girder in transverse direction because of its simplicity and easy usage. But, this frame model has many problems such that it can't consider warping, distortion and longitudinal load distribution. In this study, the results from simple frame model and 3-dimensional shell model with UIC load are compared to show its validity. The results from frame model are slightly larger than those of shell model in symmetric loading case. But, positive bending moment of top slab is larger in shell model than frame model in case subject to anti-symmetric loading. It shows that simple frame model can't always give conservative results, so a practical tool whose treatment is easy and whose product is reliable shall be developed as soon as possible.

The roll characteristic of railway vehicle is an important factor that affects the roll-over of vehicle and lateral ride comfort of passenger. Generally the roll characteristics of railway vehicle is defined by the term of roll-coefficient, s, which represents the ratio of incline or carbody to that of rail-cant. The limit values of roll coefficient recommended in UIC Bre 0.4 for coach without pantograph and 0.15 for vehicle with pantograph. The roll coefficient can be calculated by VAMPIRE that is the well-known commercial software for analysis of dynamic behavior of railway vehicle. The value of roll coefficient is effected by height of gravity center of carbody, stiffness of primary and secondary suspension and etc. The calculated roll-coefficient for electric locomotive and passenger coach is 0.12 and 0.77 respectively, The additional equipment such as anti-roll bar is considered in order to decrease roll-coefficient of passenger coach. In relation to roll characteristics, the analysis for roll-over due to wind is a1so performed. The results show that roll-characteristics affect the roll-over of vehicle.

Rubber wheel-type AGT has two major kinds of bogie; one is the bogie type and the other and passenger loads. This paper deals with the statics analysis for two types of bogie frame subjected to combined external forces, as well as independent ones specified in UIC 515-4. Furthermore, the dynamics analysis is performed under vibrational loading conditions so as to compare dynamic characteristics, Numerical results by using commercial packages, Ⅰ-DEAS and NASTRAN show that maximum stresses do not exceed the yielding level of material used for both bogies. From an overall viewpoint of strength, the bogie type turns out to be superior to the steering type except the case of a lateral loading. It is also observed that the steering type shows a be stiffened. It is strongly anticipated that vibrational fatigue analysis should be carried out under realistic loading conditions closely matching to situations such as running surface and lateral clearances along the guideway.
