By using numerical simulation, vast and detailed information and observation of the physics of flow over a train model can be obtained. However, the accuracy of the numerical results is questionable as it is affected by grid convergence error. This paper describes a systematic method of computational grid refinement for the Unsteady Reynolds Navier-Stokes (URANS) of flow around a generic model of trains using the OpenFOAM software. The sensitivity of the computed flow field on different mesh resolutions is investigated in this paper. This involves solutions on three different grid refinements, namely fine, medium, and coarse grids to investigate the effect of grid dependency. The level of grid independence is evaluated using a form of Richardson extrapolation and Grid Convergence Index (GCI). This is done by comparing the GCI results of various parameters between different levels of mesh resolutions. In this study, monotonic convergence criteria were achieved, indicating that the grid convergence error was progressively reduced. The fine grid resolution's GCI value was less than 1%. The results from a simulation of the finest grid resolution, which includes pressure coefficient, drag coefficient and flow visualization, are presented and compared to previous available data.

The automatic train control (ATC) system development project for the Automated Guideway Transit (AGT) system has high technical risk because the system is unmanned train control system using wireless technology which was unprecedented in train control industry of Korea. To overcome the technical risk during concept design phase of the ATC system development project, the integrated product team(IPT) carried out a reverse and reengineering process using a systems engineering design model. The generic systems engineering process is incorporated in the both reverse and reengineering process. As a result of the systems engineering effort, the IPT has built top layer systems engineering design model of the ATC subsystem. The purpose of this paper is to deliver the reverse and reengineering process which was used to develop the systems engineering design model of ATC system using a computer aided systems engineering tool. This study also shows that the model based reverse and reengineering process can reduce the technical risk by identifying the differences of requirement, functional and physical architecture between a reference system and a target system.

Wind turbine requires service life of about 20 years and each components of wind turbine requires high durability, because installation and maintenance costs are more expensive than generated electricity by wind turbine. So the design of wind turbine must be verified in various condition before production step. This paper demonstrates the application of a generic methodology, based on the flexible multibody simulation technique, for the dynamic analysis of a wind turbine and its drive train. The concern of the paper is the computation of dynamic loads of wind turbine in emergency-stop condition. The finite element model is used to analyse the dynamic behaviour of the wind turbine.

Interlocking signalling system plays key role as core system to manage railway operation. The core role of railway operation is to control routing, displaying signal and regulation for train. Interlocking system relate tightly to railway accident because collision and derailment is sometime taken place wrong route setting and signal displaying. Safety activity for interlocking system is inevitable to avoid the accident over its life cycle. The safety activity includes hazard identification and analysis, safety requirement allocation, safety plan, safety activity and ao on. The safety activity need a broad wide range work. In this paper, we concentrate on hazard identification for generic interlocking system and programmable electronic interlocking system and compare between two results. The hazards will be used for safety activity.

This paper introduces the concept of fixed weights and proposes an algorithm for classification by adding this concept to vector space separation method in LVQ. The proposed algorithm is based on competitive learning. It uses fixed weightsfor generality and fast adaptation efficient radius for new weight creation, and L1 distance for fast calcualtion. It can be applied to many fields requiring adaptive learning with the support of generality, real-tiem processing and sufficient training effect using smaller data set. Recognition rate of over 98% for the train set and 94% for the test set was obtained by applying the suggested algorithm to on-line handwritten recognition.

The KNR wayside and onboard subsystem has completed commissioning tests applicable to the Pilot Line section by BOMBARDIER. Andreas Hardt/Assessor and Rod Muttram/VP, Quality & safety approved the Automatic Train Protection(ATP) System. However additional evidences are necessary to come to a Specific Application, which is mandatory to approve the Generic Applications included for commercial running on the overall main line railway with ATP. According to Factory Acceptance Test plan, CBC, CBF, LEU(Line Electronic Unit) made by domestic factory is tested by official recognition test Standards-Setting Agency. It is important to verify quality which form checklist during Factory Acceptance Test. In this paper, review the process, test item, norm and checklist for the CBC, CBF, LEU.

Railway noise has been a social issues nowadays in our community. This paper discusses the environmental noise problem along railway lines. We overview the noise level and noise exposed populations due to conventional and high speed train operation at first. Then we introduce variety of noise reduction schemes to protect the community based on an engineering approach. Some applicationcases to reduce the noise will be demonstrated. Finally, we propose the noise barrier tunnel as a tool of a generic solution to reduce the community noise along railway lines.

원자력발전소의 화재방호 목적은 예방, 화재의 진압 및 영향을 완화하는 데 있으며, 화재가 발생하면 원자로를 안전하게 정지하여 유지하고 환경으로 방사성물질의 유출을 최소화하는 것이다. 미국의 원자력규제위원회는 10CFR50.48과 10CFR50 APP.R을 발행한 이래 지난 20여년간 화재방호와 관련하여 많은 일반 통신문(Generic Communications)을 발행하였으며, 미국원전 발전사업자(Nuclear Energy Institute)에서는 회로고장 해결을 위한 다중오동작과 관련된 결정론적 방법 등을 사용과 연계하여 위험도정보를 활용한 화재 안전정지분석 방법론을 개발하였다. 본 논문에서는 중수로원전의 주제어실 화재시 화재안전정지분석 방법론을 적용하여 안전정지용 한 계열의 안전관련 계통 및 기기가 손상되어도 원자로의 사고 후 안전정지를 달성하고 유지함을 확인하였다.

This paper presents a neural network based approach to disseminating information relating to experimental and field observations in engineering. Although the methodology is generic and can be applied to many areas of engineering science, attention is focussed here solely on geotechnical engineering applications. Field data relating to the settlement of foundations presented by Burland and Burbidge (1985) which led to their well known equation for calculation of settlement, now included in most text books, is re-visited. A part of the data, chosen randomly, is used to train an Artificial Neural Network (ANN), which relates foundation settlement to various causes as identified by the authors. Predictions are made for situations for which data were not used in training. These indicate sufficient accuracy when compared to the original field data. Accuracy of predictions is further improved when all the data are included in the training set. The finally trained ANN is shown to represent these data more accurately than the Burland and Burbidge equation. Based on the above heuristic example, an ANN is presented as an alternative to developing equations and design rules in geotechnical engineering practice. Significant advantages are shown to arise by using this methodology. Ease of updating the ANN, as and when additional data becomes available, being the most important one. Loss of transparency, however, seems to be the main disadvantage.
