This study proposes integrity evaluation method of weld zone in rails using high precision distance amplitude characteristics curve(DACC) and ultrasonic signals. For these purposes, the ultrasonic signals for defects(porosity and crack) of weld zone in rails are acquired in the type of time series data and echo strength. 6 lines in the DACC indicated damage evaluation standard of weld zone in rails. The aquired ultrasonic signals agree fairly well with the mesured results of reference block and sensitivity block(defect location, beam propagation distance, echo strength, etc). The proposed high precision DACC in this study can be used for integrity evaluation of weld zone in rails.

Rails are continuously exposed to severe environments due to increases in train service frequency, passing tonnage, and speed. Wear is one of the most common types of damage observed on rails. The surface of railsis heat treated to secure safety at critical sites, such as curved tracks or turnouts. Ultrasonic nanocrystal surface modification (UNSM), a new approach for rails, was examined to strengthen the rail surface. The effect of UNSM on the wear resistance of rail specimens was compared with that of heat treatment. Wear resistance was improved after UNSM treatment due to increased hardness and surface compressive residual stress.

근래에 클라우드 컴퓨팅 개념이 도입되면서 수많은 데스크톱 어플리케이션들이 웹기반 어플리케이션으로 옮겨가거나 비슷한 기능의 웹-어플리케이션으로 재차 제작 되고 있는 추세이다[1]. 이에 Ruby on Rails 프레임워크는 웹-플랫폼을 쉽게 개발하고, 유지 보수가 편리한 장점으로 인하여 많은 웹 어플리케이션 개발에서 사용된다[2]. 따라서 Ruby on Rails 기반의 이동형 서버 어플리케이션 형태를 배포하기 위해서는 Ruby 언어를 탑재해야 한다. 하지만 Ruby 전체의 용량은 개발하는 어플리케이션의 절반 이상이거나 상당부분을 차지한다. 이러한 Ruby의 용량을 줄이고, 해당 어플리케이션의 설치 속도를 줄이고자한다. 이는 Ruby 언어의 필수 사용 라이브러리와 개발하려는 어플리케이션에서 참조하는 라이브러리를 찾아낸 다음 불필요한 부분들을 제거해 나가는 방법으로 연구하였다.

The resistance and seakeeping performance of a high-speed monohull vessel were investigated through a series of model tests in a towing tank. The hull had a slender wave-piercing bow, round bilge, and small deadrise angle on stern. Tests on the bare hull in calm water were first conducted and tests on spray rails followed. The spray rails were designed to control the flow direction and induce a hydrodynamic lift force on the hull bottom to reduce trim angle and increase rise of the hull. The maximum trim of the bare hull was $4.65^{\circ}$ at the designed speed, but the spray rails at optimum location reduced trim by $0.97^{\circ}$. The ship motion in head seas was examined after the calm water tests. Attaching the rails on the optimum location effectively reduced the pitch and heave motion responses. The vertical acceleration at the fore perpendicular reduced by 11.3%. The effective power in full scale was extrapolated from the model test results and it was revealed that the spray rails did not have any negative effects on the resistance performance of the hull, while they effectively stabilized the vessel in calm water and waves.

It is essential to reduce track maintenance costs and to extend the periodic replacements of continuous welded rails based on accumulated passing tonnage. As recently train load decrease and rail joints wear down less, the periodic replacements of continuous welded rails can be extended. There are many kinds of rail damage like squat, head-check and corrugation. These can be taken nondestructive or naked eye test. So the periodic replacements of continuous welded rails based on accumulated passing tonnage were examine with focusing on a crack of rail bottom of continuous welded rail. Therefore, this study measure dynamic response of track by metro train load, it compute impact coefficient and track spring coefficient for estimating a condition of actual track system. Also, it is converted the measured stress waveform into stress frequency histogram by the rain-flow counting methods, and then the equivalence of stress is calculated. As apply s-n curve of a new welded rail, accumulated fatigue damage ratio of laid rail and remaining service lives is estimated. This study suggest a plan of the periodic replacements of continuous welded rails based on accumulated passing tonnage classified by the types of track system.

레일 용접부에 존재하는 각종 결함을 검출하고 이에 대해 정량적으로 평가하는 것은 구조물 전체의 건전성 및 안정성 측면에서 대단히 중요하다. 현재 용접부 내부 결함 검색을 위하여 널리 사용되고 있는 초음파 검사법은 국내 및 국외의 경우 아직 레일에 대한 뚜렷한 평가기준이 제시되어 있지 않은 상태이다. 따라서 현장에서는 탐상기를 보유하고 있어도 이를 정확하게 사용하지 못하고 탐상 결과에 대해서도 합부를 판단하지 못하는 실무자들이 대부분이다. 이에 본고에서는 실무에 있어 현장 기술자들이 알아야 할 레일 용접부의 초음파 탐상에 대하여 첫째, 현재 발주처별 적용하고 있는 국내 궤도 공사 시방서의 문제점 및 개선방향 둘째, 철도 레일 용접부의 초음파 탐상 시험의 적용 방법에 대하여 논하고자 한다.

짧은 시간에 장거리를 전파하는 유도 초음파의 특성을 이용하면 빠르게 넓은 영역의 검사가 가능하다. 그러나 레일의 경우와 같이 단면이 단순하지 않고 임의의 형상을 갖는 구조물의 경우 초음파 전달시 발생하는 분산 특성이나 다수의 모드의 발생으로 초음파 신호의 분석에 어려움을 겪는다. 따라서 실용적인 유도 초음파 검사 시스템을 개발하기 위해서는 먼저 레일내를 전파하여 전달되는 초음파의 거동특성을 이해하여야 한다. 특히 레일내를 전파하는 초음파의 분산특성은 필수적으로 확인되어야 할 특성이다. 본논문에서는 SAFE법을 활용하여 KS60 레일내를 전파하는 초음파의 분산곡선을 구하는 방법을 소개하고 유도초음파를 활용한 레일 검사의 가능성에 대하여 살펴보았다.

Main characteristic in railroad is the guided movement of the wheel by the track through a metal-to-metal contact, conferring to the rail vehicle a single degree of freedom. There are defects such as head check, shelling, corrugation, squats etc in surface of the rail by interface between the wheel and rail. These defects bring about reducing the life-cycle of rails and track components and increasing noises. In case of bad conditions, it is possible to happen to full-scale accident such as derailment. Recently, the track capacity has been increased for increasing speed and operation efficiency. So, maintenance and indirect cost have been increased. Currently, a coating method of rail construction is proposed by using the ceramics in Korea. Rails are used as the earth in electrical railroad systems. Currently traction return current is flowed through wheels of trains. In case of rails coated, problems are caused in the contact power between wheel and coating material of spray. In this paper, electric model is presented in the AT feeding method. In case of rails coated, electric model is presented. Also, standard resistance of the ceramic is demonstrated by contact power between wheel and coating material of spray.

Rails are key elements in railway superstructure since these elements receive directly the train load transmitted by the wheels. Simultaneously, rails must provide effective stress transference to the rest of the track elements. This track element often deteriorates as a consequence of the vehicle passing or manufacturing imperfections that cause in rail several defects. Among these rail defects, transverse cracks highlights and are considered a severe pathology because they can suddenly trigger the rail failure. This study is focused on UIC-60 rails with transverse cracks. A 3-D FEM model is developed in ANSYS for the flawless rail in which conditions simulating the crack presence are implemented. To account for the inertia loss of the rail as a consequence of the cracking, a reduction of the bending stiffness of the rail is considered. The numerical models have been calibrated using the first four bending vibration modes in terms of frequencies. These vibration frequencies have been obtained using the Experimental Modal Analysis technique, studying the changes in the modal parameters of the rails induced by the crack and comparing the results obtained by the model with experimental results. Finally, the calibrated and validated models for the single rail have been implemented in a complete railway ballasted track FEM model in order to study the static influence of the cracks on the rail deflection caused by a load passing.

레일의 잔류응력은 레일의 피로 및 파괴 특성에 영향을 끼치는 인자로서, 레일의 가공 및 열처리 등 생산 과정 단계에서 이미 형성되며, 이를 정확하게 분석하는 기술은 매우 중요한 문제이다. 본 연구에서는 레일 내부에 존재하는 잔류응력을 측정하기 위하여, 잔류응력 분석방법의 하나인 파괴법 기반 굴곡측정법을 적용하여 레일 축 방향의 잔류응력을 평가하였다. 레일의 축 방향과 수직한 단면을 방전가공을 사용하여 느린 속도로 단면을 절단한 후 레이저 기반인 굴곡 측정기를 이용하여 단면의 굴곡을 정밀 측정하였다. 측정된 데이터는 유한요소해석 프로그램 ABAQUS를 활용하여 설정한 요소로 잔류응력으로 변환시켰으며, 총 3종의 다른 규격을 갖고 있는 신 레일 (50N, KR60, UIC60)의 잔류응력 값의 경향과 수치를 비교하였다.
