전기철도차량의 추진제어장치는 자동차의 엔진에 해당되는 핵심 주요부품이며 이를 제어하는 장치는 GDU(Gate Drive Unit)라는 장치를 이용한다. 또한, 추진제어장치의 고장 빈도를 파악해보면 GDU에 대한 부적합 비율이 가장 높았다. GDU는 외국산 도입으로 인하여 핵심기술의 접근이 불가하였고, 제작사의 GDU 단종으로 전반적인 유지보수 활동에 전반적인 문제점이 있었다. GDU는 최장 23년부터 최근 14년의 장기간 사용으로 수명이 도래하였다. 본 연구는 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 호환이 가능한 GDU의 확보와 고장을 분석하여 적정수명을 파악하기 위한 것으로, 기존의 상태검사 위주의 유지보수 방법 개선을 위해 설계를 변경하여 추진제어장치의 GDU를 커패시터 교환 형으로 개발하였다. 전체수명에 비해 비교적 수명이 짧은 구성부품의 유지보수는 필수이며, 대부분의 건설초기의 최초 외산도입 부품은 기술종속 및 장기운영의 결과로 관련 부품의 단종이 발생하면 고장발생 시 수급불가 등으로 기본적인 교환에 대한 유지보수에 문제점이 발생되고 있으나, 25년 이상으로 전체수명이 긴 철도차량의 특성상 앞으로도 상당기간 운영이 필요하여 개조 혹은 대체품 개발로 부품확보 및 일정수준의 품질을 유지할 필요가 강조되며, 이에 대한 연구는 보다 구체적이고 실증적으로 이루어져야 한다. 커패시터 교환 형 GDU는 커패시터 모듈의 분리를 통해 정전용량을 쉽게 측정하여 수명을 판단하고, 단품 시험과 커패시터의 수명을 측정하여 정확한 예방유지보수를 할 수 있어서 운행 중 열차의 부적합을 미리 예방할 수 있으며, 24개월 이상의 영업 운전을 통하여 한건의 부적합 없이 영업운행에 성공하여 기존품의 대체 가능여부를 검증하였다.

Transportation systems around the world are difficult to maintain sustainability that, in a broad sense, is the capacity to endure. By connecting Entropy theory and systems thinking, we find the current problems and seek alternative plans. Distortions of the current transportation system to improve individual's ease and increasing traffic congestion, impose us the heavy energy consumption and will make increase whole entropy. UNEP reports are presented following three reasons that undermine the sustainabillity. The first one is that the prevalent traffic system highlight benefits of accessibility than benefits of mobility, the second, deteriorate excessive energy consumption, and the last reason is that personal vehicles has inhibited the use of public transportation. Alternative ideas to enhance the sustainable transportation system are these; (1) changeover from 'Ease of movement' to 'space efficiency', (2) evolving the smart traffic system instead of the construction or expansion of the road and (3) creating more comfortable the use of mass transportation. In addition, there are another ways that encouraging modal shift that increase traffic of goods, transport over railway lines and waterways, decongesting transport corridors and elevating technology to improve public transportation. The most importantly, we converse our cognitive process to be willing to enjoy uncomfortable and annoying life.

The measurement of contact wire wear in electric railways is one of the key test parameters to increase speed and maintain safety in electric railways. Wear caused by continuous interaction between pantographs and contact wires has a negative effect on current collection quality and severely damaged contact wires might cause hazardous accidents. This paper introduces a non-contact optical-based contact wire wear measuring system that will replace conventional wear detecting methods conducted by maintenance vehicles or workers. The system is implemented by high-speed cameras that can collect images of contact wires during vehicle operation, a laser used to create images profile of the contact wire surface, and a computer used to process the collected images. The proposed system is designed to assist maintenance of overhead contact lines by creating geometrically plotted images of contact wires to detect contact wire wear during operation on conventional lines or high-speed lines.

In 2013, Korea will become the world's second country to operate the urban Maglev system with the inauguration of demonstration line at Incheon International Airport. A prototype Maglev is under the test at KIMM's(Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials, Daejeon) track. This Maglev is an EMS(Electromagnetic suspension)-type vehicle of controlled $8{\pm}3mm$ air gap. The air gap between electromagnet and the guiderail in an EMS-type Maglev must be maintained within an allowable deviation by controlling the magnet. The air gap response is strongly dependent on the structural characteristics of the elevated guideway. For this reason, the interaction between the vehicle with electromagnets and the elevated guideway must be understood to ensure safe running. The purpose of this paper is to compare vibration characteristics of the vehicle on the switching system and other sections when the full weight condition of urban maglev vehicle that 26.5 tons per car(empty car weight 19 tons + passenger condition 7.5 tons), is applied. Through such results, Maglev vehicles and switching system can be established and the levitation stability can be improved.

Diesel locomotive operates the generator with the power from the diesel engine, and it consists of the typical serial-hybrid system which operates the train wheels by converting its generated electric energy into the torque of DC (or AC) motor. However, the technology of locomotives is only focused on trains' controlling power generation mechanism. Hence, it is a current issue that the efficiency of its engine and its generator is relatively lower than that of auto vehicles'. Particularly, since there are no proper equipment to measure the amount of fuel which is essentially necessary for the efficient use of fuel, it is not easy to confirm the instant amount of fuel use as well as the exact average fuel consumption per an hour. Due to those difficulties, it is urgent to develop the device that measures the fuel consumption. Plus, this use of the developed measuring device allows the various and useful analysis relating to the fuel consumption, and this could lead to establishing the efficient driving pattern regarding to fuel saving. This device consists of two flux (fuel level) measuring censors, MCU for calculating the measured values, the information recorder for saving measured values, and the display device for indicating the fuel amount consumed during driving.

In the modern society various types of transportation mode are utilized, among them the subway system is the one of the main transportation mode which more than 7.21 million people ride a day. Because of interests on the indoor air quality (IAQ) of underground public facilities, concerns on IAQ of subway system by many people are increasing. There are several approach to improve IAQ of subway station, such as installing platform screen door (PSD), frequent tunnel washing-out, and etc, however there has not been any attempt to improve IAQ of subway cabin inside. Most technologies for removing airborne particulate matters are known to be difficult to adopt on the subway cabin since the problem of maintenance cost. Therefore, the ultimate object of this study is a practical development of cabin air cleaning system which can reduce the concentration of airborne particles and harmful gases at the same time. The subway cabin air purifier (SCAP) was developed for removing particulate matters and gases pollutants inside a cabin. The whole system was designed and the roll-filter device was manufactured based on numerical prediction results. It is expected that SCAP could reduce indoor air pollutants in the subway cabin practically and it can be applied to other part of transportation vehicles.

In the area of wheel on rail vehicle, hunting stability which is generated by lateral motion is one of important characteristics for running safety. It might cause not only oscillation of vehicle but also derailment in an unstable area of the high speed. A Maglev vehicle is usually controlled the voltage to maintain the air gap between electromagnet and track. However, in Maglev system, an occurrence possibility of hunting motion could be high, because Maglev vehicle is not controlled directly lateral force between electromagnet and track in the curved guideway. In this paper, running safety is evaluated when Maglev vehicle run on guideway at high speed according to installment of damper between maglev vehicles and bogies, and to analyze the effect of it. Also, the parametric study is carried out for selecting effective lateral damper properties through the simulation. To accurately predict the running safety, 3d multibody dynamics models which are included air spring, guideway conditions and irregularities profile are used. With the results acquired, suggestions were made whether to adopt the damper and how to optimize the damping characteristics.
