The track performance evaluation in curves of conventional line subjected to loading condition caused by tilting trains was carried out. And the correlations between train speed and track alignment was reviewed. The parameters of track alignment were determined by field investigation of all curves in conventional line. It was founded that the pressure of the rail did exceed the allowable stress when the tilting train speed was over 96km/hr in radius of 300m. As the radius of curvature is smaller, applied force on the track becomes larger in the curved track without regard to laying of the continuos welded rail. On the while, the change of applied force on the track corresponding to the change of the cant is not so large.

Maglev vehicles, which are levitated and propelled by electromagnets, often run on elevated flexible guideways comprised of steel, aluminum and concrete. Therefore. an analysis of the dynamic interaction between the Maglev vehicle and the flexible guideway is needed in the design of the critical speed, ride, controler design and weight reduction of the vehicle. This study introduces a dynamic interaction simulation technique that applies structural dynamics. Because the proposed method uses FEM, it is useful to calculate the deformation of the elevated flexible guideway, the dynamic stress, and the motion of the vehicle. By applying the proposed method to an urban transit Maglev vehicle, UTM01, the dynamic response is simulated and validated. From the result of the study, we concluded, that the dynamic interaction between the maglev vehicle and the flexible guideway is possible.

Train driving should be satisfied to run fixed distance within given time, and it is desirable to minimize energy consumption. Minimizing energy consumption depends on the train operation modes by driver or automatic operation. In this article, an optimal operation to minimize energy consumption by changing modes of train operation by a driver is investigated. First, powering model, braking model and consumed energy calculation model are introduced by using Matlab software. The accuracy of the model established by simulation is compared with the real experimental data, which is obtained from an authorized institution. Second, several simulations under a variety of operations in the ideal track are executed, and then the optimal pattern of train driving is found.

본 연구에서는 고속철도에서 차량·교량 구조물의 상호작용을 가능한 정밀하게 취급할 수 있는 3차원 해석모형을 개발하였다. 경부고속철도 교량형식인 PSC 박스거더 교량을 40m 단순 와 25-40-25m 3경간 연속 에 대해 뼈대요소를 사용하여 3차원으로 모형 하였으며, 궤도의 불규칙성은 정상확률과정으로 가정하고, 지수 스펙트럼 밀도함수를 사용하여 궤도의 형상을 생성시켰다. 열차는 경부고속철도 차량 하중효과가 가장 큰 동력차 만을 대상으로 17 자유도 모형과 38 자유도 모형으로 분리하여 개발하였다. 다양한 조건에 대한 분석결과를 검토하면 여러 가지 상황에서 38 자유도 모형의 필수 성이 보여지고 있다. 특히 교량의 솟음 및 장기 처짐에 의한 궤도형상변화가 있는 경우에는 반드시 38 자유도 모형이 적용되어야 하는 것으로 분석되었다. 또한 제동하중이 작용할 때 쏠림 효과에 의한 영향이 큰 것으로 평가되어, 제동에 의한 교량의 동적 거동은 종변 위에 대한 자유 도를 고려할 수 있는 주행차량모형으로 해석되어야 함이 규명되었다.

Running train is one of the most main factor for railway bridge vibration. The repeated forces with equidistant axles cause the magnification of dynamic responses which relates with maintenance of the track structure and structure-borne noises. The noise problem is one of the most important issues in services of light rail transit system which usually passes through towns. The noise of railway bridges can be divided into the noise from track-vehicle system and structure-borne noises. In the present study, The vibration and noise of the LRT bridge will be investigated with utilizing dynamics responses from moving train as input data for noise analysis.

During the passage of the train, the railway bridge undergoes vibration and noise. The noise of railway bridge can be occurred from various sources. The wheel-rail contact, noise from machinery parts, structural-borne noise, pantagraph noise and aerodynamic noise of the train work in combination.

An accurate railway environmental noise prediction model is required to make the proper solution of the railway noise problems. In this paper, an engineering model for predicting the noise of conventional passenger cars is presented considering the acoustic source strength in octave-band frequencies and the propagation over grounds with varying surface properties. Since the formation of a train can be variable, the source strength of each locomotive and passenger car was estimated by measuring the pass-by noise and analysing the wheel-rail rolling noise. Some validation cases show on the average small differences between the predictions of the present model and the measurement results.

철도나 고속철도 교량에 사용되는 장대레일은 차량에 의한 동적충격의 완화, 주행시 승차감의 향상과 같은 장점을 가져온 반면에, 인접한 교량의 연결부에서 레일과 교량 상부구조간의 거동 불일치로 인해 레일에 부가적인 응력을 발생시킨다. 이러한 부가적인 레일응력과 지반운동의 특성에 따른 구조적 응답의 민감도 및 열차의 안전한 정지를 고려하여, 지진 발생시 고속철도교량의 장대레일 응력을 해석하기 위해 레일의 재료비선형성, 지반운동의 위상차 등을 고려한 비선형 시간이력해석 방법을 제시하였다. 그리고 우리나라의 여러 지반조건을 고려하고 고속철도의 대표적인 연속교량 모델에 적용하여 제시한 방법의 타당성을 검토하였다.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the validation to passage of high speed train on conventional railway bridges. The dynamic behavior of bridge is analyzed by using the developed 3-D program. The train is assumed to moving loads and track to distributed masses. The centrifugal force due to curved track is also considered. The numerical results are compared with those measured in the site to demonstrate the efficiency of the developed program. From the parametric study, it is notified that conventional bridge gives good serviceability to passage of high speed train, specially such as TGV-K.
