This paper investigates the high efficiency operation of a switched reluctance generator over a wide speed range. The system efficiency is improved by optimizing the current shape. A modified angle position control (MAPC) method that can be used to optimize the current shape over a wide speed range is proposed. Simulation and experimental results are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme.

In this study, market strategies for the HSR's fare system are suggested for successful operation of high speed train opened in April 2004. For price strategies, we suggested HSR's fare system considered competition with other transportation modals are supposed to be charged and some discount-fare policies compared to service distances are needed for the successful operation of high speed train after the train open. In addition, this study concludes that for non-price strategies, various services for customers driving for enough demand can provide the base for stable operation of high speed train in Korea by making balances or profitability.

This paper presents a low-power and high-speed pulsed flip-flop based on dual-precharging and conditional discharging. The dual-precharging operation minimizes the parasitic capacitance of each precharge node, resulting in high-speed operation. The conditional-discharging operation minimizes the redundant transitions of precharge nodes, resulting in low-power operation. Linear feedback shift register (LFSR) designed in a $0.18{\mu}m$ CMOS technology using the proposed flip-flop achieves 32% power reduction as compared to conventional design.

Through a year's commercial operation, Korea High Speed Railway has solved defectives from several breakages at the beginning and is going into the stage of stable operation. Among issues, wheel wear becomes a matter of primary concerns in view of vehicle's stability and maintenance. It was understood as above that wear status has been improved in the test by which railway system including vehicles and tracks was stabilized during a year's commercial operation, comparing to that with excessive wear in the trial operation prior to opening to the public. To make out wheel's wear status and characteristics of equivalent conicity at present when the service has been introduced a year ago and the average cumulative mileage of vehicles reach almost 500,000km, wheel's wear types were analyzed with the current vehicles in service.

A computer aided process is inevitable for the optimization of train operation planning. Developing of train diagrams is very important for the train operation planning. In this paper, the user friendly program related to the train scheduling that can be used for the basic data on developing of train diagram is introduced. It can also provide basic data for other train operation plannings, such as Timetabling, Crew Operation Scheduling, etc. It provides the planner with data moving, data changing and zooming functions, and it can assist the user easily produces their optimal solution. All this operations are performed interactively through graphic windows.

Along with the increase of railway catenary system operation speed to 400 km/h, there have been growing demands for good quality current collection systems that satisfy quality standards as well as criteria for safe working. Retaining uniform elasticity tension of contact wires is essential in maintaining high quality contact between pantograph and OCL (Overhead Contact Line) of current collection systems in high speed railways. Therefore, the tension of contact wire must be kept within tight tolerance limits in both working conditions and adverse weather conditions of catenary system. In accordance with these conditions, this paper presents a real time monitoring system for the tensioning device of the newly installed catenary system on the special route of Honam high speed line for 400 km/h operation. For the verification of the true value of tension of contact wires, we have developed ring-type tensioning sensors which were installed on supporting points of mast which compose the catenary system. According to the field test performed on the Honam high speed line catenary system, variation of tension was measured accurately in real-time.

According to previously published paper the phase advance angle is adopted to the BLDC motor drive with high speed. The report proposed describes the optimum algorism that phase current is in phase with the initial flat region of back EMF. This report studies the need of more leading phase advance angle compared with in phase concept between phase current and back EMF. In case of high reactance this report proposes the more phase advance angle than in phase. The test results more rms value of phase current and output power due to more phase advance angle than in phase. It will be helped the high power operation of BLDC motor at high speed.

This paper presents the development of a condition monitoring system that monitors the operating conditions of a reduction unit, such as the bearing temperature, gearbox vibration, and gear oil deterioration, and notifies the operator of potential problems or abnormal conditions. A series of field tests on high-speed rail and conventional lines was performed to identify the characteristics of temperature rise and vibration levels on the reduction unit during operation. The monitoring system was designed based on the proper sensor selection, measurement method, and signal analysis to optimize the interface with the operating system of high-speed trains. Application of this monitoring system to high-speed trains will play an important role in their proper maintenance and safe operation.

The effect of loading speed on soil failure was studied by using a high speed triaxial compression test. Tests were conducted at 0.35-6.2m/s loading speed to compress soil specimens of sandy loam at different moisture contents. The axial stress at fracture increased with increase in loading speed up to certain critical speeds, however they decreased as the speed up to certain critical speeds, however they decreased as the speed increased further. Experiments were also conducted in the field of sandy loam soil with the vibrating tillage tool. Tests were done at 0.33-0.85m/s tractor speed oscillating frequency 13.7hz and oscillating amplitude 59mm. The maximum oscillating velocity of tillage tool was 2.5m/s. It was observed that for the oscillating operation, initially draft slightly increased with increase in forward speed and then it decreased .For the non-oscillating operation, draft increased continuously with increase in forward speed. Approach of studying soil failure in the laboratory test can be related to the field experiments.

This paper proposes a high speed digital neuron processor which uses the residue number system, making the high speed operation possible without carry propagation,. Consisting of the MAC(Multiplier and with Accumulator) operation unit, quotient operation unit and sigmoid function operation unit, the neuron processor is designed through 0.8$\mu$m CMOS fabrication. The result shows that the new implemented neuron processor can run at the speed of 19.2 nSec and the size can be reduced to 1/2 compared to the neuron processor implemented by the real number operation unit.
