Carbody bolster must be a strong structural member of the underframe because it is in the direct line of weight transmission. On the other hand, carbody bolster is a heavy member that occupied about 20~25% in the weight of underframe. In order to reduce the weight of carbody bolster, we study the design factors such as bending stiffness, bending strength and deformation according to the change of carbody bolster's second moment of area. And we investigate the design factors of a total of 10 species of existing rail vehicles. The results of this study can be used as practicable method in designing carbody bolster in the future.

This paper has performed static, fatigue and nondestructive test of tilting' bolster frame for Korean tilting train. From the static test, the structural safety was investigated using Goodman diagram. After the static test, the fatigue test were conducted under tilting load conditions. The fatigue test was conducted for $10\times10^6$ cycles. During the fatigue test, the nondestructive tests using magnetic particle and liquid penetrant were performed at $6\times10^6$cycle and $10\times10^6$cycle. From the crack detection tests, it was known that there was no fatigue crack in the tilting bolster.

The carbody underframe of TTX vehicle should be modified a lot for the installation of new devices such as an active suspension system between the bogie and the carbody of TTX vehicle, because the carbody underframe is one body structure consisting of a center sill welded with a carbody bolster. Modification operation of the carbody takes a lot of time and cost, because the huge sized carbody structure should be moved to a machining apparatus and machined to guarantee the manufacture accuracy of new device installation brackets. For this reason, modification operation improvement is needed to install new devices more efficiently between the bogie and the carbody. This paper introduce the development of 'bogie/carbody interface bolster' that not only supports the carbody weight but also enables new devices to be installed more efficiently between the bogie and the carbody. This development has advantage to reduce working time and cost to install new devices such as an active suspension system between the bogie and the carbody by minimizing the modification of the carbody of TTX vehicle.

This investigation is the result of a structural analysis by the finite element method and static loading test for the optimal structural design of an electric railway vehicle made of stainless 301L materials. We analyzed the stress and displacement of the existing electric car-body structure for predicting the position of concentrated stress, the flow of stress, rigidity to be occurred in the car-body structure when it is subjected to the vertical load. It was exposed that the side sills and window corners around the bolsters are the weak parts of the electric car-body structure because the bolsters of the electric car-body structure were subjected to the vertical load and dynamic load to be occurred during running. The flow of stress and the cause of stress concentration in the weak zone were studied in order to prevent the concentration of stress and buckling. The rearrangement of the structure and the selection of the beam elements were also carried out for optimum design of the structure.

사이드 볼스터는 자동차 시트에서 탑승자가 시트에 착석하였을 때, 더욱 안정성을 줄 수 있도록 옆에서 탑승자의 몸을 잡아주는 부품이다. 본 연구에서는 A, B 두 가지의 모델을 가지고 자동차 시트에서 사이드 볼스터에 대한 구조 및 피로해석을 수행하였다. 하중이 많이 실리는 부분과 자동차 운행 시 피로로 인한 파손 및 구조에 따른 내구성의 차이를 연구하였고 응력, 변형량의 분포 및 피로 수명을 알아보았으며 또한 그 강도 및 내구성을 검토하였다. 본 연구 결과는 사이드 볼스터의 설계에 따라 피로 파손을 줄이고 그 피로 수명 및 내구성을 증가할 수 있는 데 기여가 될 것으로 사료된다. 그리고 본 결과를 자동차 사이드 볼스터의 설계를 실제적으로 적용함으로서 제품을 향상시킬 수 있고 본 연구결과를 미적 감각을 가진 융합 연구에 응용하는 것이 유리하다고 사료된다.
