PSD(platform screen door) was completely installed at all of Seoul subway station(line 1~8) using 640million people per day by 2010. After installation of PSD, the influence of train induced wind at platform decreased, but is estimated to increase in subway tunnel. In this paper, train induced wind occurred by pass of subway at platform was measured and analyzed using numerical analysis by computational fluid dynamics.

본 논문은 고속철도 역사의 통과구간 설계에 있어서 소음방지에 효과적인 설계안을 검토하기 위하여 7가지의 다양한 대안의 모델을 시뮬레이션하여 그 결과를 비교 분석하였다. 고속열차의 최대 운영속도 300 km/h 기준시 승강장의 허용소음도는 약 91 dB(A) 일 때 이를 만족하는 설계안은 통과구간의 양쪽에 설치하는 방음벽으로는 부족하며 통과구간을 곡면유리로 폐쇄한 터널식의 설계가 허용소음도를 만족하는 것으로 나타났다.

Platforms of many railroad stations are crowded with passengers regardless of the time throughout day. But the intensity of illumination of the existing lightening systems are so low enough to make passengers feel inconvenience in using platforms. Consequently there exists high possibility of accidents in platforms of low illumination. Hence, for the safety and convenience of passengers, it is necessary to improve the luminous intensity of lightening system for platforms. This paper points out the problems of existing system and presents the method to improve it.

The aerodynamic effect on platform during the train passage, the results of field test on the high-speed railway platform are discussed and the whole test results and conclusions are synthesized. The field test for the high-speed railway have been conducted on the Osong temporary platform in the newly constructed Seoul-Busan high-speed line and total 12 measurements have been conducted for G7 train and KTX train. The results shows that the high-speed trains have similar aerodynamic characteristics and have far better characteristics referring to the conventional trains such as Saemaul and Mugungwha trains. To discuss the actual aerodynamic effects on the platform at its own operational speed, Beaufort wind scale have been introduced and the criteria for the safety on railway platform has also been discussed.

In this study, unsteady wind pressure analyses on platform screen door (PSD) have been conducted considering the flow intereference effects between the moving train and the configuration of subway station. The major role of PSD prevents passenger accidents, wind pressure, polluted dust and noise when the train is entering the station platform. Computational fluid dynamic method with moving gird algorithm has been adopted to accurately predict unsteady pressure levels exerted on the PSD. Closed and open type station configuration are considered. Also, wind pressure levels for passing and stopping drive motion of the entering train are presented and practically compared each other.

The Seoul Metropolitan Subway Corp. have gradually installed screen doors in platforms of 115 subway stations in Seoul on lines 1, 2, 3, and 4. Installation in nine areas among those has been completed and screen doors are being operated as a model operation. Traffic signs should be clear for users. The essential functions of signs should be fully investigated from the aspect of user as well as the visual beauty and recognition. Signs should be able to provide users with information regarding location, position, directions, etc. Particularly, safety and convenient signs should be visually and sensually correlated. However, the entire screen doors in platforms installed in line 2 subway in Seoul are used for commercial advertisement, consequently, the functions and roles as public signs are not fulfilled aggravating inconvenience for users. In this study, cases have been studied to investigate requirements for user-oriented sign system in platform and public sign space to fulfill the functions of sign system in platform. Using an anthropometry approach, the study aimed to obtain the space to install the sign system and to systemize necessary and sufficient conditions for user-oriented system for platform in which screen doors have been installed using. The study suggests fundamental information to obtain the space of public sign system on the entire screen door.

This study analyzes the institutional status related to 'evacuation' and 'firefighting' in underground subway stations, derives institutional limitations for 'evacuation' in underground subway stations, and proposes guidelines in terms of architectural space based on this. As a result of the study, the following points were derived. First, since similar standards are separately enacted in individual laws and it is difficult to grasp the standards and they are dualized, it is necessary to standardize and regulate the space where users stay according to the movement of urban railway users, limited to urban railways. Second, in order to use trains, a special procedure called 'ticketing' must be considered, and regulations on evacuation safety zones and evacuation stairs between the waiting room and the platform are required. Finally, if there is a platform at a depth of more than 30m underground, it is necessary to install an evacuation floor in accordance with standards similar to the current building law.

In order to monitor internal risk factors such as fire, terror, etc. on the subway station, the surveillance systems using CCTV and various kinds of sensors have been implemented and recently, introduction of surveillance systems using an advanced IT technology, sensor network technology is tried on several areas. Since 2007, Korean government has made an effort to develop the intelligent surveillance and monitoring system, which can monitor fire, intrusion, passenger congestion, health-state of structure, etc., by using wireless sensor network technology and intelligent video analytic technique. For that purpose, this study carried out field wireless communication environment test on Chungmuro Station of Seoul Metro on the basis of ZigBee that is considered as a representative wireless sensor network before field application of the intelligent integrated surveillance system being developed, arranged and analyzed and ZigBee based wireless communication environment test results on the platform and waiting room of Chungmuro Station on this paper. Results of wireless spectrum analysis on the platform and waiting room showed that there is no radio frequency overlapped with that of ZigBee based sensor network and no frequency interference with adjacent frequencies separated 10MHz or more. As results of wireless data transmission test using ZigBee showed that data transmission is influenced by multi-path fading effect from the number and flow rate of passengers on the platform or the waiting room rather than effects from entrance and exit of the train to/from the platform, it should be considered when implementing the intelligent integrated surveillance system on the station.

철도 선진국을 중심으로 신재생에너지의 철도 시스템 적용이 가속화 되고 있고, 국내에서도 철도 시스템에 신재생에너지를 적용하려는 시도가 이루어지고 있다. 이미 상당수의 신규 역사가 BIPV(building integrated photovoltaic) 시스템을 적용하고 있고, 단순히 유휴지를 이용한 풍력 발전 시스템을 넘어서 차량의 주행풍을 이용하거나 차량 외부에 풍력 발전기를 설치하는 등의 다양한 시도들이 이루어지고 있다. 수소 에너지를 연료로 하는 연로전지의 경우 기존 전기철도의 대체 연료로서 주목을 받으며 많은 연구가 이루어졌고 현재는 시험 운전 단계에 이르러 있다. 지열의 경우에는 벌써 오래전부터 승강장 또는 선로의 해빙장치의 에너지원으로 사용 되고 있다. 이밖에 수력 및 해양 에너지의 경우 전철전력의 청정 에너지 공급원으로 보고되고 있으며, 차량이나 역사 내에서 발생하는 운동 에너지를 수확하여 전기 에너지로 변환하는 에너지 하베스팅 기술이 새로운 신재생에너지 기술로서 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 에너지 문제와 온실가스 감축 의무 부담이 날로 가중되는 현 시점에서 신재생에너지의 전기철도 시스템 적용은 이 같은 문제를 해결할 수 있는 확실한 대안이 될 것이다. 본 논문에서는 국내외 전기철도 시스템의 신재생에너지 적용 기술과 적용 방안에 대해 고찰한다.
