In this research, railway transportation by means of the characteristics of tourism in the selection of railroad tourism and to clarify the difference in IPA is a primary purpose of this research. In addition, the train travel experience would like to clarify the difference in the importance and performance. This research fellows the indication points. First, by means of transportation to select train tourism product is the difference in the importance and performance in the 25 items. Second, the urgent needs to improve part 'Concentrate Here' side of the train, the temperature of the reasonable air-conditioning, and the appropriate means of transport links to the information service has been identified.'Low Priority' side of the entry tourist train operation of the frequency and interval, a total of 26 items, including the efforts of more than the current level of commitment was expected to be unnecessary. Third, according to the experience of sightseeing train railway transportation as a means to help train tourism product selection was the difference in the importance and performance.

An 1 lbf of NASA standard monopropellant thruster, MRE-1, is used for KOMPSAT (Korea Multi-Purpose Satellite) which is launched in 2006 and provides reliable and cost-effective means for attitude and maneuvering control system. The monopropellant thruster obtains required thrust by thermal decomposition process of propellant through catalyst bed. During firing, the decomposition plays a role of a heat source that may occur an excessive radiation heat transfer to peripheral structures and electronics in relatively low temperature condition.Therefore, the radiation heat shield is needed to prevent the critical radiative heat exchange between thruster and satellite during firing. This paper summarizes an overall development process of radiation heat shield from the design engineering up to the manufacturing.

The South Korean rail authority is constructing a nationwide tourism belt by developing new rail tour routes in an effort to combine local tourism resources with rail service and to create value in regional areas. As massive financial resources are required to develop and operate such tourist trains, governing authorities are required to examine the feasibility of this project as a sound business model and to assess the public benefit and profitability of the project. In this study, the economic feasibility of the tourist trains was assessed with the contingent valuation method (CVM). According to an estimation of the willingness to pay of potential tour train passengers, the surveyed subjects were willing to pay fares that were higher than prices currently published at the time of this study, thereby demonstrating that the economic value they invest on tourist trains may be higher than published prices at the time. For instance, they were willing to pay 28.4% and 54.9% more for the O-train and V-train types, respectively, according to the study, suggesting that the quality as perceived by train passengers for tourist train services is relatively high. The study is significant in that it succeeded in quantifying the satisfaction level of tourist train passengers using quantitative data (additional funds people are willing to pay).

This paper shows development of 1-3 dimensional hybrid mesh method to analysis flow induced by ultra-high speed vehicle inside a long distance tunnel. For three-dimensional analysis of the tunnel system many meshes are required. However it is not efficient to calculate the whole tunnel system in three-dimension. Therefore in this paper, three-dimension meshes was used to describe stations, shafts and around vehicle, and one-dimension meshes was used to describe the tunnel except these three sections. And unsteady flow analysis of the ultra-high speed vehicle was performed with UDFs in commercial software, Ansys vr. 12.0.

In the major operation sections of the urban railway, there has been habitual delay, and delay propagation; another problem is the increase of crowds and of inconvenience to passengers. The urban railway has different characteristics from rural railways, such as uncertainty of demand and irregularity of train operation. In urban railways, recently, operators manage quality indicators of service using operation results, such as the delay of train operation and the congestion of trains. However, because the urban railway has characteristics in which demand, passenger behavior, and train operation mutually affect each other, it is difficult to express the quality of service that passengers actually feel. In this paper, we suggest a quality indicator of service from the viewpoint of passengers, and present a demand responsive multi-train simulation method to predict dynamic dwell time and train operation status; we also use simulation results to consider changes in the quality indicator of service.

In this paper, a concept design of a rail type ultra-high-speed train is proposed and its dynamic characteristics are analyzed. Instead of the existing solid axle, a new type bogie system and independently rotating wheels are applied in the proposed train. In order to analyze the dynamic characteristics, a multibody dynamic model of a vehicle is developed and the basic validity is verified by eigenvalue analysis. Also, it is shown that the critical speed is improved in comparison to that of existing high-speed train model HEMU-430X. Finally, through 7000R curved track driving analysis at a speed of 550 km/h, the lateral force of the wheels and the derailment quotient are estimated and the applicability of the new concept railway vehicle is confirmed.

The platform safety door is difficult to install in platform because the doors of railway vehicles and existing Passenger Safety doors should be alined. To be able to solve this problem, we propose the use of Rope Type Platform Safe Door (RPSD) which is a vertically retractable platform that is designed to close from top to bottom. This platform has installed safety gate pillars at intervals of 20-40 m which accommodates different types of train regardless of train length, gate opening and location. In this paper, we reviewed the application of existing PSD and RPSD in various train stops in Seoul Gyeongbu Line platform. The results of the review showed that the existing PSD may cause problem in construction, safety and cost efficiency. The use of RPSD however shows that minimal problems will be encountered.

In this paper, we verify the driverless operation possibility of MBS, which could overcome the defects of conventional track-circuit-based FBS, such as additional needs of maintenance and others problems according to short-circuit sensibility and, and which could allow the minimal interval between trains. With MBS, we can expect the reduction of headway, then the increase of transportation demand, and the protection of unnecessary speed variation because it allows the real time detection of train position from central office, and direct transmission of data between preceding trains and the following ones. In addition, it is possible to reduce the number of wayside-equipment substantially, to improve the passenger service, and to the achieve the positive economic effects by comfortable ride.
