지진으로 인한 철도 고가교의 심각한 손상이 발생할 경우 구조물의 복구에 필요한 직접적인 손실과 통행제한에 따른 막대한 사회 간접적 손실이 발생한다. 따라서 철도 고가교 구조물은 적절한 내진성능을 확보하여야 하나, 기존 철도 시설에 대한 내진성능평가 결과 다수의 구조물에 대한 내진보강이 필요한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 5개의 고가교 기둥 축소모형을 제작하고, 4개의 기둥에 대하여 기존 보강공법의 단점을 개선한 HT-A 복합플레이트로 기둥을 보강하였다. 축력과 반복횡하중을 동시에 가하는 기둥의 실험을 실시하여 강성, 연성 및 에너지 소산능력 등의 내진성능을 평가한 결과 HT-A 복합플레이트로 보강된 철도 고가교 기둥의 향상된 내진성능을 확인하였다.

The noise from the elevated lines of rail transit has become a growing problem. This paper presents a new method for the rapid prediction of the structure-borne noise from steel or composite bridges, based on the receptance and Statistical Energy Analysis (SEA), which is essential to the study of the generation mechanism and the design of a low-noise bridge. First, the vertical track-bridge coupled vibration equations in the frequency domain are constructed by simplifying the rail and the bridge as an infinite Timoshenko beam and a finite Euler-Bernoulli beam respectively. Second, all wheel/rail forces acting upon the track are computed by taking a moving wheel-rail roughness spectrum as the excitation to the train-track-bridge system. The displacements of rail and bridge are obtained by substituting wheel/rail forces into the track-bridge coupled vibration equations, and all spring forces on the bridge are calculated by multiplying the stiffness by the deformation of each spring. Then, the input power to the bridge in the SEA model is derived from spring forces and the bridge receptance. The vibration response of the bridge is derived from the solution to the power balance equations of the bridge, and then the structure-borne noise from the bridge is obtained. Finally, a tri-span continuous steel-concrete composite bridge is taken as a numerical example, and the theoretical calculations in terms of the vibration and noise induced by a passing train agree well with the field measurements, verifying the method. The influence of various factors on wheel/rail and spring forces is investigated to simplify the train-track-bridge interaction calculation for predicting the vibration and noise from steel or composite bridges.

In 2013, Korea will become the world's second country to operate the urban Maglev system with the inauguration of demonstration line at Incheon International Airport. A prototype Maglev is under the test at KIMM's(Korea Institute of Machinery & Materials, Daejeon) track. This Maglev is an EMS(Electromagnetic suspension)-type vehicle of controlled $8{\pm}3mm$ air gap. The air gap between electromagnet and the guiderail in an EMS-type Maglev must be maintained within an allowable deviation by controlling the magnet. The air gap response is strongly dependent on the structural characteristics of the elevated guideway. For this reason, the interaction between the vehicle with electromagnets and the elevated guideway must be understood to ensure safe running. The purpose of this paper is to compare vibration characteristics of the vehicle on the switching system and other sections when the full weight condition of urban maglev vehicle that 26.5 tons per car(empty car weight 19 tons + passenger condition 7.5 tons), is applied. Through such results, Maglev vehicles and switching system can be established and the levitation stability can be improved.

As the density and height of the buildings nearby subway lines get higher, the unprecedented residents' appeals for noise are on the rise. Furthermore, in accordance with the revision of enforcement regulations on the Noise and Vibration Control Act, the night time noise standards have been reinforced by 5dB effective on January 1st 2010 and the appropriate measures shall be taken accordingly. For the settlement of the public grievances against noise and vibration generated on tracks in at-grade and elevated section, the installation of continuously-welded-rail, rail lubrication system, improved fastening system and higher noise barrier is currently executed. Nevertheless, the noise and vibration levels in some areas are still exceeding the limits required in the regulation. Among the measures, an installation of higher noise barrier or noise tunnel seems to be the most effective way; however, it has limitations owing to the structural stability of existing elevated structures. The paper in consideration of the local conditions and foreign practices discusses the installation of fairing system under the train body as an noise insulation panel in order to reduce the rolling noise and under-carriage noise. Based on the result of this study, a performance verification test during actual train operation is in progress for further study.

As the growing concern about environment and earthquake for the concrete structure, many seismic rehabilitation and retrofitting methods have recently been studied but they are not coping enough with the changes of structure, specificly various problems have been found in seismic rehabilitation method - both in exposure or non exposure - when they are implemented to the underground structure, utility conduit, water supply facilities, underground wall, parking lot, road pavement, and elevated structure etc. This study is about the seismic rehabilitation method using environmentally friendly functional inorganic mortar and resilient material, and it is effectively retrofitted seismic performance as it reinforces not only physical strength, but also flexural and bond strength from the resilient material, and it has been analyzed and evaluated when the environmentally friendly functional inorganic mortar and the resilient material are applied so as to countermeasure the effect of earthquake and viable problems and approved for possibility of various applications and wide use.

Computer simulation studies are a useful means to investigate the safety and performance of a high-speed magnetically levitated vehicle negotiating an elevated guideway. In this paper the dynamic interaction between moving vehicles and a span continuous guideway was discussed and with the consideration of the magnetic levitation system, the maglev levitation system and guideway dynamic interaction model was developed. Numerical simulation was performed to understand dynamic characteristics of the guideway used in practice. The result show that vehicle speed, span length and primary frequency of the guideway have an important influence on the dynamic responses of the guideway.

Faults are fractures along which there is visible offset by shear displacement parallel to the fracture surface. Faults can occur as single discrete breaks, but where the rock has been repeatedly faulted, or where the rock is especially weak, no discrete break may be evident. What forms instead is a fault zone composed of countless subparallel and interconnecting closely spaced fault surfaces. Faulting is fundamentally a brittle mechanism for achieving shear displacement. At deep crustal levels where rocks tend to deform plastically under conditions of elevated temperature and confining pressure, shear displacement is achieved by and development of shear zones. In this paper authors propose the fault grade in Korea.
