철도 시설사고 및 차량장애에서의 비상대응 주체별 행동요령에 관한 연구

In this paper, we performed analysis and comparison on emergency response action for passengers, drivers, workers and controllers in case of failure occurrence on rail infrastructure and rolling stock. In general, the subjects of emergency response action perform the response action with following emergency response procedures when accidents occurred. In reality, however, no matter how well the subjects are trained, it is hard to follow the emergency response procedures precisely without making any mistakes. As for emergency response action, the most significant factor for the subjects is to follow the emergency response procedures as learned, without any hesitation. In this paper, therefore, we analyzed the emergency response actions that should be performed by passengers and railway workers when emergency accidents occurred. We also examined the communication facilities for emergency response among train, wayside and station in order to provide the emergency reporting system for passenger and the method for cleaning out the accident area.
