When the trains runs at a high speed in the tunnel, passengers feel a pain in the ear that fast pressure fluctuation inside the tunnel being delivered with pressure fluctuation inside the passenger car. These phenomena are called "aural discomfort". Aural discomfort increase the passengers' uncomfort so that it is decreased a service level and serious case, it is able to damage the ear of the passenger. therefore aural discomfort must be considered the high-speed railroad tunnel cross-section design. To solve the problem of aural discomfort in a railway tunnel, some countries have standards on aural discomfort. It has been studied that different countries have different standards on aural discomfort. For that reason, the criteria of aural discomfort was reviewed through the standards of Kyungbu HSR line and different countries in this paper. And then Numerical Analysis of the Characteristics with tunnel cross-section change has been used for the selection of the optimum cross-section of Honam. The numerical analysis results were compared to field test results in order to verifying the reliability of the numerical analysis.

High speed railway can transport large quantity of people and commodities in a short time and has become one of the most desirable and environmentally friendly transportation. However, it is hard to have a complicated route for high speed railways, construction of tunnels is essential to pass through a mountain area. When a high speed train enters a tunnel, pressure wave is created in a tunnel and the wave causes micro pressure wave and discomfort to passengers. In order to alleviate pressure wave in a tunnel, constructing a vertical shaft is one of the most efficient ways. This study represents a numerical analysis module, which takes into account the effect of a vertical shaft in a tunnel. The module can be used in a numerical program (TTMA) specialized for aerodynamics in a tunnel, and it was validated by comparing numerical results with various measurements in Emmequerung tunnel and results from numerical analysis using Fluent.

현재까지 개발되고 있는 자기부상열차는 상전도 방식과 초전도 방식의 2종류로 대별 할 수 있다. 즉 상전도방식은 상전도 전자석에 의한 흡인력에 의해 지상에서 1cm정도를 부상하여 주행하는 시스템으로 영국의 버밍행공항의 People mover, 독일의 Transrapid, 일본의 HSST, 우리나라의 한양대, 자기 부상열차사업단, 대우중공업, 현대정공의 EXPO전시운행선등이 개발되어 있다. 초전도방식으로는 초전도전류에 의한 반발력에 의해 10cm이상 부상되어 운행되는 시스템으로 MLU 시스템이 있는데 지진이 심한 일본에서 개발되었다. 영국의 버밍햄공함의 People mover는 1984년부터 실용화되어 무인자동운전시스템으로 10년간을 아무 문제 없이 운행되고는 있지만 선로길이 620m 정도의 소규모 저속운송시스템에 지나지 않는다. 반면 독일의 Transrapid시스템은 31.5km의 트랙을 설치하여 시속 450km까지 운행을 계속하여 현재 15만km정도의 운행실적을 올리고 있다. 최근 독일내각은 함부르크-베를린 사이의 290km에 이르는 선로를 2005년까지 완공하기로 결정을 내리고 금년 상반기에 착공을 할 예정이다. 따라서 세계적으로 실용화단계에까지 도달한 대규모 고속시스템으로는 단연 Transrapid시스템을 꼽을 수 있다. 이에 Transrapid사와 미국, 일본등의 각 국에서 그간 세밀하게 조사하여 검토한 자료를 상세하게 소개하므로써 신교통시스템으로서의, 자기부상열차의 적합성과 개발의 타당성 및 당위성을 제시하여 이 분야에 관심있는 분들에게 참고는 물론 우리나라의 개발방향 설정에 유익한 자료가 되었으면 한다.

As a high-speed train enters a tunnel, a compression wave is generated ahead of it due to the piston action of train. The compression waves propagate along the tunnel and reflect at the exit of tunnel. A complex wave phenomenon appears in the tunnel, because of the successive reflections of the pressure waves at the exit and entrance of tunnel. The pressure waves give rise to large pressure transients which impose the fluctuating loads on the running train. It is highly needed that the pressure transients should be predicted to design the train body and to improve the comfortableness of the passengers in the train. In the present study, the pressure transients were calculated numerically for a wide range of train speed and compared with the previous tunnel tests. The calculation results agreed with ones of the tunnel tests, and the mechanism of pressure transients was made clear.

As a high-speed train enters a tunnel, a compression wave is generated ahead of it due to the piston action of train. The compression waves propagate along the tunnel and reflect backward at the exit of tunnel. A complex wave phenomenon appears in the tunnel, because of the successive reflections of the pressure waves at the exit and entrance of tunnel. The pressure waves can give rise to large pressure transients which impose the fluctuating loads on the running train. It is highly needed that the pressure transients should be predicted to design the train body and to improve the comfort for the passengers in the train. In the present study, the pressure transients and aerodynamic drag for two-trains running in a tunnel were calculated numerically for a wide range of train speed, and compared with the results of the previous tunnel tests and calculations for one train. The present calculation results agreed with ones of the tunnel tests, and the mechanism of pressure transients was made clear.

Train runs on high speed and the concrete track is constructed. Rail fastening device needs to reduce elasticity, transferred load, noise, and vibration etc. Consequently, low elastic pad has a great impact of the durability and stability of the track. In this study, discussed in previous studies, static numerical analysis and real scale repeated loading test, followed by dynamic response analysis were implemented. The most distinctive characteristics of the model proposed is to simulate the real wheel behavior on rail. And the main analysis object is to evaluate and compare the deformation characteristics of the transition track while load reduction effect of transfer on roadbed assessed by various low elastic pad.

Since the opening of the double-track railway for the Gyeongchun local electric train and the semi-high speed train ITX, floating population between Seoul and Chuncheon has rapidly increased. This is attributable to the competitiveness of the railway service in terms of punctuality and safety of operation, mass transportation and low fare. However, many passengers have expressed strong dissatisfaction and displeasure towards the interior noise and its high rate of increase, particularly in tunnel sections. In this study, the interior noise characteristics of Gyeongchun local electric train and ITX were analyzed and compared. Noise levels, frequency spectrum and sound quality indices were compared for the open land, tunnel and bridge. Finally, from the noise levels depending on the location in the vehicle compartment, the noise transmission path was determined and a basic strategy for reducing the interior noise was developed.

Aerodynamic noise generated by the surrounding flow of a train traveling at high speed affects both outdoor and indoor noise. This study's goal is to develop a test method to measure and quantitatively evaluate aerodynamic noise through pressure perturbation data on the train surface. To accurately evaluate aerodynamic noise, it is important to separate and evaluate the compressive and incompressible pressure fluctuations mixed in the acquired surface pressure fluctuation data. This is because the noise transmission characteristics of the two pressure fluctuations are different. First, the installation length and interval of the microphone were determined to acquire surface pressure fluctuation data, and wavenumber-frequency analysis was performed to separate incompressible pressure fluctuation and compressible pressure fluctuation to obtain a sound pressure level spectrum. Finally, as a result of comparing the test results measured in the train head and trail, It was confirmed that the pressure fluctuation on the train head surface was greater than that on the tail.

A trial run of locally-developed tilting train has been in process on Chungbuk line since the test vehicle was first produced. For the system stabilization, interface verification among the systems including track, structure, catenary and signaling system, not to mention the rolling stock, is very crucial. Therefore, in this study, the dynamic rail force of the tilting (Hanvit 200), high-speed (KTX) and general (Mugunghwa) vehicle caused by driving in transition curve track was measured. And, it compared the tilting response with the other by using the measured rail force data in transition curve track, and then evaluated probability the range of load fluctuation for the variable dynamic vertical and lateral wheel load. As a result, a range of rail force by occurred a change of cant from the high-speed and general vehicle which had fixed bogie structure was distributed throughout small deviation. Otherwise, in case of the tilting train which was consisted of the pendulum bogie structure was distributed wide range about large deviation by changed of cant.
