Electric locomotive is adapted to high speed driving and mass transportation due to obtaining high traction force. The electric locomotive is operated by motor blocks and traction motors. Train speed is controlled by suppling power from motor blocks to traction motors according to reference speed. Speed control of the electric locomotive is efficient by spending energy between motor blocks and traction motors. Currently, switched reluctance motors have been studied because the efficient is higher than induction motors. In this paper, model of the switched reluctance motor is presented and the PID controller is applied to the model for the speed control by using Simulink. Asymmetry converter is used for real-time control and system performance is demonstrated by simulating the speed of switched reluctance motor including PID controller.

Constant slip frequency control has been conventionally used in thrust control of the linear induction motor(LIM) for magnetically levitated train. However in this paper variable slip frequency control method is presented to increase LIM efficiency according to change of driving notch. Thrust, attractive force, input power to inverter, regenerative power of the LIM are analyzed by finite element method when the train runs according to the presented control method. As a result it is proved experimentally that the electrical energy to inverter is reduced than the conventional method.

In this study, vertical and horizontal accelerometers were installed at the both side of car body and tachometer was installed on the bogie, for the purpose of stability analysis of Korail Airport Express Train during driving. By applying the developed algorithm, the peak-to-peaks of horizontal and vertical acceleration which were matched with location by tachometer were found and compared with the threshold values. The threshold values per velocities which were presented in the "Metro Train Performance Criteria" were applied here. The validity of the developed algorithm was shown by comparing the site investigation and the measured values at frost heave locations.

In this paper, noise source localization of the Korean high speed train was conducted by using delay and sum beam-forming method of a microphone array. At first, the microphone array having irregular configuration was designed and the resolution of which was analyzed from parameters such as 3-dB bandwidth and maximum side-lobe level. After the demonstration, the microphone array was applied on the high speed train and noise localization of the high speed train driving at 300 km/h was performed successfully.

A Vigilance control is a device fitted in the driving cab of a railway train to ensure that the driver is alert on the job. A simple vigilance control requires that the driver press a button at intervals not less than a certain amount and not more than another amount of time. If the driver fails to operate the vigilance control within those limits, a hooter sounds, and should the driver still doesn't operate the vigilance control then the brakes are applied. If the driver falls asleep or takes ill, then clearly such a vigilance control will sooner or later apply the brakes. The this vigilance control system which is applied to reduce the drive load at Syria diesel multiple unit train is proposed.

According to passengers gain and headway's contraction, railway vehicle is required quick and correct running. The importance of ATC device was increased gradually, and also is acting important role in safe train running and efficient use in this reason. Now, railway vehicle that is manufactured or is remodeled are designed to most automatic driving system, and ATC device design direction than other device of railway vehicle influences to whole system in this reason. Also, according as system becomes complicated gradually, importance of fault tracing function fur ATC device is emphasized gradually, and in this reason research about efficient fault tracing method is to act important role heightening reliability of ATC device. In this document, that analyzing about result through examination of automatic train operation system of localization model ATC device(SG-100) and application example, and do so that investigate about efficient fault Bracing.

Because the wage of railway crews is based on the duty hour rather than the working hour, most researches have focused on the balance of duty hour for the crews. In this paper, the structure of duty hour and its relationship to the crew wage are analyzed and some issues are identified. The duty hour consists of several different jobs which are weighed equally in calculating the crew's wage. Also, the difference between the working hour and duty hour is inconsistent with the train routes; i.e., the difference of a long distance train is larger than that of a small or medium distance train. To solve the problems, possible ways to link the duty hour to the wage better are proposed and exemplified

The bogie hunting sensor detects accelerations of a bogie. It transmits those accelerations using frequency modulated signal to the TCMS(Train Control and Management System) electronics for functional processing. TCMS decide undesirable bogie hunting and high speed instability with frequency modulated signal. The bogie hunting sensor is essential component for safety driving of high speed train. The bogie hunting sensor's quality inspection before sensor is installed on bogie is very important. Therefore it is required equipment for exact inspection of train bogie hunting sensor. This study is about development of Bogie Hunting sensor's inspection equipment that we can improve Bogie Hunting sensor's quality. Accordingly, I suppose that this thesis will be utilized to improve the bogie hunting sensor's quality thru exact inspection.

This paper introduces a novel system-level framework that derives energy efficient electric vehicle (EV) driving speed profile to extend EV driving range without additional cost. This paper first implements an EV power train model considering forces acting on a driving vehicle and motor efficiency. Then, it derivate the minimum-energy driving speed profile for a given driving mission defined by the route. This framework first formulates an optimization problem and uses the dynamic programming algorithm with a weighting factor to derive a speed profile minimizing both of energy consumption and driving time. This paper introduces various weighting factor tracking methods to satisfy the driving time constraint. Simulation results show that runtime of the proposed scaling algorithm is 34% and 50% smaller than those of the binary search algorithm and greedy algorithm, respectively.
