In this paper, the diagnosis method for AC traction motor is to reduce their maintenance loads. We tried to apply this method to maintenance of traction motor in railway vehicle. Sample coils for stator of traction motor were tested by accelerative thermal degradation which composed of heat, vibration, moisture, and overvoltage applying. Reliability and expected life were evaluated on the insulation system for 200 class traction motor.

Rubber wheeled AGT(Automated Guide-way Transit) system is a prominence transportation system for urban area, because of its low construction cost and management, low noise and vibration and fine exterior view. AGT system uses concrete tracks. Concrete can be easily damaged by the impact, change of temperature and external loads. The fault of concrete track is harmful not only to riding quality but also to bridge. Therefore, in this study, the effects of railway prominence to the bridge are surveyed by experimental method. The experiment was executed for PSC bridge at AGT test line in Kyungsan. And the test results for 5mm, 10mm prominence and without prominence are compared and investigated, according to the vehicle speed.

Since standardization project is composed of complicate system, such as vehicle, signal, electric power and railway, how to build management system of the project has influence on the success of the project for the first stage of the project. The computer system design tool supports to carry out requirement analysis, DB construction, and history and follow-up management efficiently. Therefore, the aim of this study is to investigate the method to optimize schema using computer system design tool.

본 논문에서는 flexible guideway 교량과 능동적으로 제어되는 자기부상 열차간의 동적 상호작용에 대한 수치해석 모델을 개발하였다. 중 저속 자기부상열차의 동적 응답에 대한 열차와 guideway 사이의 특성에 대한 연구를 실시하였다. 동적 지배방정식은 10자유도계의 자기부상열차 모델, guideway구조물의 모드 특성과 UTM02 부상제어모델을 결합함으로써 유도하였다. 수치해석으로부터 열차의 부상공극은 차량의 속도, 트랙조도의 영향을 크게 받는 것을 발견하였다.

In this paper, the experiment on the dynamic characteristics of LIM for the propulsion system UTM(Urban Transit Maglev) is threated. Untill now LIM has been mainly experimented by using the rotational arch type system, but this system compose of the test vehicle mounted LIM, which driven by PWM inverter. And the anlysis of the performance and the steady-state characteristics of the LIM is treated under various operation patterns. This paper may be available to compose the operating system of LIM driven by the open or closed loop control.

The project of advanced urban transit system development is developing the advanced vehicle and the core technologies for the cost down by system change, the transport safety and the environmental friendliness and the improvement of passenger service. The product data management system is installed for management of each project. Various data and informations producted from each project are made for database. Therefore, we develop the product data management system.

The train control and monitoring system (TCMS) is an on board computer system in railway vehicles performing the control, supervisory and diagnostic functions of the complete train system. This system replaces a lot of hard-wired relays and minimizes the necessary vehicle wiring thus increasing the reliability of the train. It is also one of more important equipment on vehicle to implement much higher safety and reliability train system. We studied a software design technique of TCMS using a CASE tool that is a kind of safety critical software engineering tool (SCADE). This tool has mainly four functions such as the graphical editor, the document maker, tile automatically code generator, and the test simulator. The several functions of TCMS are implemented in this software easily programmed using a functional block diagram and a graphic programming language. We applied to automatically generated TCMS modules on the SCADE each functional block for the Standard type EMU in Korea. We performed the combination test using TCMS simulator and the running test in Seoul subway 7 Line. We proved that this technique is more useful for the software design of TCMS in urban transit

The current transportation regime is largely based on two alternatives: (1) fixed route public transit, and (2) private ownership of internal combustion engine (ICE) powered vehicles per households. This paper analyzes one possible transportation alternative, Micro Electric Vehicles or MEVs, and compares with the ICE vehicles in terms of social, economic and environmental benefits, especially emphasizing its environmental advantage over ICE vehicles for future sustainability. While some representative models of MEVs exist in a limited market capacity, but global technical standards are generally insufficient and non-homogenous across nations, which restricts the development of the proposed transportation sector. The focus of this paper is to analyze the characteristics and potential benefits of MEVs in economical and environmental perspectives, including development status and technical standards, with a particular focus in the E.U., the U.S., Japan, and Korea. Based on the data of analysis, this paper aims to derive and propose a cooperative and adaptive global policy framework designed to speed up adoption and expansion of the global MEV market, including passenger and utility vehicles. We propose MEV to be a new mobility segment in the global transportation market because of their advantage in environmental impact, sustainability, overall cost of ownership, and safety.

In this study, estimated the minimum lane width for the curved section by analyzing of lateral sway distance and compared the lane width for result of this study and a precedent study for straight section on urban roads. Then suggested minimum lane width of road alignments and vehicle classes. The lane width of curved section that was investigated was 2.79m~3.40m. Analysis of frequency distribute and cumulative frequency distribution for lateral sway distance on the basis of 85% of the suggested vehicles. The result of study, minimum lane width for the curved section was 2.31m~2.58m in the case of small size car and 2.80m~3.27m in the case of large size car. Result of this study is judged that it is necessary to case for introduction of green transit, during road construction and construct a road for small size car. Expect result of this study can be used for the application of flexible design standard according the purpose of road designer.

In this study, we studied the ride quality considering the deterioration effects of the three type couplers (single, double, and ring types) for EMUs. In order to know the impact occurred when an urban transit vehicle is under breaking, we tested the conditions of the service brake and the emergency brake. Normal coupler models without any slack showed similar dynamic performance results under all breaking conditions. But if the couplers become old, the initial pre-stresses are removed because of permanent compressive deformation in rubber. For three types of the old coupler models without the initial pre-stress, we evaluated dynamic performances of each type. As the results, the maximum and average acceleration levels of the double type and the ring type were similarly low in all conditions. But the accelerations of the single type coupler was high when compared to those of the double and ring types. In addition, Jerk value of the single type model associated with ride quality was high up to 15 times to the ring type in condition of the service braking in empty vehicle weight. Jerk value of the double type model was high up to 6 times to the ring type.
