Maglev vehicle has two parts a vehicle body and a series of bogies. The vehicle body is connected through a pneumatic suspension on the bogie frame operating loads, vehicle weight and passengers, repeatedly during the service life. The bogie frame plays an important role in sustaining the weight of the vehicle body and controlling the magnets in the correct alignment to meet requirements of stable running on railway. It is also subjected to the levitation and guidance force and propulsion force generated by electromagnets and linear induction motor (LIM) respectively. To guarantee a vehicle system, it is necessary to identify a load test method with proper loads that the vehicle is expected to experience while in service. In this paper, a test method was proposed to verify the structural safety of vehicle body and bogie frame that are applied to an EMS(electromagnetic suspension)-type urban Maglev vehicle considering in case of not only running on the ground but also levitated running.

The light-weight design of UTM (Urban Transit Maglev)-02 car-body frames are performed, based on initial configuration. The thicknesses of fourteen sub-structures are defined as design variables and the loading condition is considered according to weight of sub-structures, electronic and pneumatic modules and passengers. For efficient and robust process of design optimization, objective function and constraints are approximated by response surface approximation. Structural analysis is performed at some sampling points to construct the approximated objective function and constraints composed of design variables. Design space is changed to find many optimal candidates and best optimal design can be found eventually. The Matlab Optimization Toolbox is used to find optimal value and sensitivity analysis about each design variable is also performed.

A magnet for urban transit Maglev is designed, analyzed and experimented to evaluate and to improve its characteristic. FEM is also used to calculate magnetic field density, magnetic force, leakage flux and losses. Seven cases of magnets are analyzed and tested for verifying the calculated characteristics and for optimizing the shape. Using the results, an improved levitation magnet is proposed for the vehicle.

System requirements (SRs), which describe the technical attributes to be satisfied by a desired system, serve as a fundamental guideline for system development. Standard methods and processes to define SRs are suggested in systems engineering literature. But in practice, we encounter many difficulties in defining and managing SRs since there are few experiences on development of complex systems in accordance with systems engineering processes of development. In this paper, to expanding SRs management experiences in a working-level, we reviewed problems occured in SRs defining process in 'Urban MAGLEV Train Project', and analyzed our activities to adjust and solve the problems.

On last year's KSR conference, the general of systems engineering technology was introduced on the focus that the SEMP(Systems Engineering Management Plan) being applied for a national project of 'Urban Maglev Program'. Since this SEMP covers very wide work scopes of 'plan, application, control of the program', 'design, analysis, test & evaluation of the system', and 'special engineering activities', it is very important that the tasks and responsibilities of all participants of the project, involving the tasks to collaborate between them, are clearly defined and described. By the point, the updating of SEMP should be done continuously. In this paper, the updating points and typically the management plan of TPM (Technical Performance Measurement), which is more concretely defined, will be explained.

Electromagnetic suspension, the suspension system used for Maglev trains, is now being applied to urban and inter-city transportation systems, offering environmental benefits. This suspension system is actively controlled to stabilize the suspended vehicle as it runs over an elevated guideway, which, for various reasons, may have deviations in its height. For this reason, frequency responses of the suspension to height deviations must be predicted in the system design cycle. The equations of motion of the electromagnetic suspension employing the 5 state feedback control law are derived for frequency analysis. The results of this paper could be used to determine design requirements for the urban Maglev transportation system currently under development in Korea.

For the commercialization of the urban maglev, an articulated turnout which consists of several segments of turnout girders and where switching is done by rotating those segments is under development. In this paper, to determine the alignment of this articulated turnout, the requirements for the alignement are analyzed. Requirements include: those for the levitation control and for the ride comfort. For the levitation control, rail joint width should be limited to a certain value, and for the ride comfort, the lateral acceleration and the time derivative of the lateral acceleration satisfy a guideline. According to these requirements, the alignment criteria are discussed.

In this paper, traction system for urban transit maglev system is proposed. Using vector control strategy to control magnitude and frequency of output voltage transiently is general. But in case of traction system for railway vehicle, it is impossible that adapt vector control because there is one-pulse mode in a high speed region. So this paper proposes the control strategy using vector control in a low speed region and slip frequency control in a high speed region. And also proposes overmodulation method that makesto change in one-pulse mode softly. The performance of traction system will be verified by simulation results using ACSL.

The Cradle(R) is specialized systems engineering tool that developed by 3SL(Structure Software System Limited) that has headquarters in U.K. and U.S.A.. It is recognized as the fastest growing Computer-Aided Systems Engineering Tool(CASE Tool). We built up requirements management database by using Cradle(R) on urban maglev program in Korea. So Cradle(R) provide a network function, is available accesses of clients in external organization that is associated on urban maglev program by the internet. However the network function of Cradle(R) require an opening of some a specific network ports and may causes a decreasing network speed. In this paper, we propose the method to establish an user environment of a requirements management database that overcome constraints on network condition.
