최근 철도 차량은 안전성, 정시성, 대량 수송성이 우수하여 수송수요가 증가하고 있으며, 열차운행 횟수의 증가와 차량의 고속화로 운행조건이 가혹해짐에 따라 이에 대한 절대적인 안전성과 높은 신뢰성이 요구되고 있다. 철도차량과 같이 반복하중이 연속적으로 작용하는 구조물의 설계에 있어서는 구조물의 사용 환경이나 재료의 피로특성을 최우선의 고려사항으로 간주해야 한다. 실제로 철도차량의 대차 프레임은 맞대기 용접으로 제작되어 있으며, 용접부에서 파손이 발생하고 있다.(중략)

최근까지 용접구조물의 피로설계는 용접품질 수준에 따라 공칭응력 또는 핫스팟 응력에 의한 S-N선 도로부터 수행하였다. 본 연구에서는 유한요소망의 크기에 덜 민감하면서 기존의 하중모드형식, 두께 효과 및 용접결합형식에 상관없는 등가구조응력(E2S2) 접근법을 이용한 Master S-N선도로부터 철도차량 대차프레임의 피로수명을 평가하고자 한다. 또한 합리적인 철도차량 용접대차프레임의 피로해석 연구일환으로서, 다축피로조건인 EN규격의 피로시험조건하에 이의 피로수명을 평가하고자 한다.

We consider the position and thickness of reinforcement with respect to fatigue fracture of welded bogie frames and propose an appropriate reinforcement method for many cases. The bogie frame is usually designed in accordance with JIS and KS, and operates under harsh load conditions: dynamic loads generated while driving, various loads during operation, and large load differences between loading and unloading. Consequently, fatigue failure often occurs throughout the bogie frame. We modelled the reinforcing method using ANSYS software and reviewed stress in the vicinity of common fatigue failure sites through computer simulation, optimizing the position and thickness of reinforcement.

This study evaluated the fatigue strength of the bogie frame of an urban maglev train through fatigue analysis, cumulative damage, and fatigue tests based on a proposed fatigue evaluation method. The results of FEM analysis in which various load combinations were adopted showed that all data were under the fatigue limit of a butt welded joint made of A6005 in a Goodman diagram. The cumulative fatigue damage was calculated at the highest level from a bolt connecting the area of the electromagnetic pole in the casting block; however, the total sum was evaluated as D=0.808 based on $1{\times}10^7$ cycles, which indicates that it did not exceed the failure criteria. In addition, the results of the fatigue testshowed that there was no crack at any position in the bogie frame, which corresponded to the results of fatigue analyses.

Fatigue fracture of the welded joints of bogie frames is one of unsolved problems. To improve the fatigue strength of the welded joints, various techniques have been applied. In this study, we have investigated the effect of shot peening on the fatigue characteristics of SS400 welded specimens. The fatigue lives of four kinds of welded specimens were examined; welded, PWHT, shot peened, and shot peened after PWHT. The results of the fatigue tests show that the fatigue limit of the shot-peened specimens is higher than that of the welded specimens, and the PWHT specimens have a lower fatigue limit than the welded specimens. It was found that shot peening is a very effective method to improve the fatigue strength of SS400 welded joints.

For the design of welded bogie frame, the concept of multidisciplinary engineering activities, i.e. static, fatigue and dynamic analysis, has been applied, in which the sharing of design parameters related with each analysis and the collaboration of the working parts in charge should be fulfilled. However, in spite of these necessities, the multi-disciplinary engineering activities couldn't be performed in practice due to tack of the automation of the required analysis. In this paper, an automation of fatigue durability analysis of welded bogie frame according to UIC-Code was proposed by using the Model Center, which enables to integrate the several tools for the fatigue durability analysis, i.e. I-DEAS, ANSYS and BFAP, and to perform iterative analysis works in relation to the geometrical change of transom support bracket. Besides, the wrapping programs to control I/O-data and interfaces of these tools were developed. The developed automation technique brings not only significant decreasing man-hour required in the durability analysis, but also providing a platform of the multidisciplinary engineering activities.

There is a large interest to find reliable and automatic methods for crack detection and quantification in the railway bogie frame. The non-destructive inspection of railway bogie frame has been performed by ultrasonic and magnetic particle testing in general inspection. The magnetic particle method has been utilized in the defect inspection of the bogie frame but the grinding process is required before inspection and the dust is developed resulting from the processing. The objective of this paper is to apply the inspection method of bogie frame using infra-red thermography. The infra-red thermography system using the excitation of eddy current was performed for the defect evaluation of weld specimen inserted artificial defects. The result shows that the infra-red thermography method can detect the surface and inner defects in weld specimen for bogie frame.
