In this paper, the wearing characteristics of current collecting shoes, interruption phenomena and contact resistances between collecting shoes and conductor rails are established as design parameters for development of the third rail current collector. An experimental analysis for established design parameters is performed as the materials of current collector shoe, contact force, sliding velocity and contact condition(dry/wet condition) between current collectors shoe and conductor rails. As a result of this study, the magnitude of contact force is in proportion to the amount of wear in the collecting shoe, but is in inverse proportion to the interruption and contact resistance between the collecting shoe and the conductor rail. And optimal values of design parameters are pre sented through analyzing the experimental results of the amount of wear, interruption and contact resistance.

In this paper, we introduce the software and hardware of the measuring system for on-line test and performances evaluation of traction and braking in KTX(Korea Train Express). The measuring system focuses on the verification of the performance and acquisition of test data. The hardware is connected many kinds of sensors, such as speed sensor, thermocouple. The software controls the hardware of the measuring system, performs the analysis and calculation of measurement data and acts as interface between users and the hardware. For this purpose, three programs, such as a measuring program, a back-up program and a analysis program, have developed.

There are a lot of traffic jams in the metropolitan area and the commuting time has been longer nowadays. So the urban people has been interested in the GTX(Great Train Express) project in Korea. The GTX is the train which runs at 200km/h speed in underground tunnels. If the train also operates at high speed in tunnel section, the pressure wave will happen and the uplift force of pantograph may vary abruptly. If the rigid trolley bar system is used in tunnel section, it is difficult to improve the commercial speed of train. In order to improve the train speed in tunnel section, this paper presents the new pantograph concepts which can change the suspension stiffness and deals with the dynamic behavior characteristics of pantograph according to the parameter variation.

최근 실내공기질에 대한 관심이 높아지면서 실내공간에서의 이산화탄소 처리 방법에 대한 연구도 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 실내공간에서의 이산화탄소를 흡착으로 저감할 수 있도록 제올라이트를 개질한 흡착제를 만들고, 이를 통하여 실내공간용 저농도 이산화탄소의 흡착특성을 알아보았다. 흡착제 제조시에 흡착성능에 영향을 미치는 전처리 온도를 변수로 하여 흡착제의 이산화탄소 흡착 특성을 알아보았다. 실험결과 각 합성 변수에 따른 흡착제의 안정성과 특성을 이용하여 최적 합성 방법을 도출할 수 있었으며, 이를 통해 기존 제올라이트보다 우수한 흡착성능을 구현할 수 있었다.

전력변환장치를 사용하여 열차를 추진하고 열차내에 필요한 전원을 생산하는 전기철도차량은 차량 내외부에 전자파를 발생한다. 차내 전자파는 제어에 영향을 미칠 뿐만 아니라 승객의 인체 건강에 영향을 주며 차외 전자파는 통신선이나 선로주변 전자기기에 영향을 주게 된다. 본 논문에서는 국내 기술로 개발한 한국형 고속열차를 대상으로 차외 전자파에 대한 시험을 EN50121 규격에 따라 수행하고 그 영향을 평가한다.

Continuous as well as discrete measurement of the track geometry based on a track trolley are investigated to enhance the efficiency of the trolley and to minimize the measurement errors. A new kinematic model based on the track coordinates involving transition and circular curves is developed to improve the accuracy of the measurement; a nonlinear Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is employed to linearize the governing equations. The proposed model is verified with the ideal track geometry in terms of both discrete and continuous measurement. Comparison with the previous models is also made to prove the applicability of the kinematic model.

Reinforced trackbeds are an important layer that has a significant effect on the deformation of the track, therefore, a deeper understanding of reinforced trackbeds is necessary. In this paper, we conduct a large triaxial test in order to evaluate the resilient modulus ($M_R$) of reinforced trackbed materials through considering several factors such as the grain size distribution (GSD) and loading conditions. It is identified that the maximum size of the particle, GSD, and compacted water content affect the $M_R$ but the loading frequency does not. Because these tests are performed with consideration of the field environment, the test results are useful for analyzing tracks including reinforced trackbeds. The data are limited to evaluating the parameters of $M_R$ model; however the parameters of the deviatoric and bulk stress models that can be used in various loading conditions are proposed.

In this paper, an efficient Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE) packet transmission scheme for railroad communication is proposed. WAVE communication is a wireless local area network (WLAN) based communication and it is developed to be suitable for vehicular communication. There has been a lot of study on WAVE's applicability to Intelligent Transport System (ITS). As one of main transportation methods, by using WAVE, quality of railroad communication including WLAN based Communication Based Train Control (CBTC) can be enhanced and variety of railroad communication systems can be integrated into WAVE. However, there are technical challenges to adopt WAVE in railroad communications. For the simplest single-PHY WAVE, time division alternation of 50ms between Control Channel (CCH) and Service Channel (SCH) is required. Since there are delay sensitive railroad traffic types, alternation operation of CCH and SCH may cause performance degradation. In this paper, after identifying a couple of problems based on detailed analysis, a novel packet transmission scheme under railroad environment is proposed. In order to verify if the proposed scheme meets the requirement of railroad communication, WAVE transmission is mathematically modeled.
