본 논문은 레일빔의 길이 산정에 관해서 지반공학적 측면에서 다룬 내용을 담고 있다. 레일빔은 철도횡단공사에서 가설기간 중에 부등침하 방지 목적으로 레일의 내측과 외측에 설치하는 보강레일을 말한다. 이러한 레일빔은 최근 철도를 횡단하는 지하 구조물의 시공이 증가해서 기존 철도 시설물의 안정에 대응하고자 많이 설치하고 있다. 그러나 레일빔 길이 설계에 관한 기준이 없어 설계에 어려움이 있을 뿐만 아니라 레일빔 길이 부족으로 탈선사고까지 이어지는 경우가 발생하고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 레일빔 길이 산정 방식에 대하여 토사지반과 암반지반으로 분류하여 Flow chart를 제시하였으며 레일 조합 및 위치에 대한 Case study를 실시하여 효과적인 레일의 조합과 위치에 확보할 수 있었다.

철도시스템의 고장은 운행지연 또는 철도사고의 원인이 될 수 있으며, 철도안전을 확보하기 위하여 높은 신뢰성이 요구된다. 철도시스템은 신뢰도 및 가용도를 높이기 위하여 동일 시스템을 다중으로 구성하여 동작 중인 시스템에 고장이 발생한 경우에 대기 시스템이 정상 동작을 수행하도록 설계한다. 일반적으로 시스템의 신뢰도는 시스템을 구성하는 각 요소의 신뢰도를 사용하여 분석하며, 시스템간의 물리적, 기능적, 프로세스적 독립이 보장되지 않는 다중 시스템의 경우는 다중 시스템에 동시에 고장을 유발하는 공통원인고장을 고려하여야 한다. 본 논문에서는 철도 시스템에서 사용되고 있는 대기 이중계 시스템에 대하여 각 시스템이 독립일 경우와 공통원인고장을 고려한 종속일 경우에 대한 신뢰도를 분석하였다. 신뢰도 분석을 위하여 다중계 구조의 다양성과 시스템 상태 전이별로 모델링이 가능한 마코브 모델을 사용하였으며, 공통고장모드의 분석 유무의 차이점 평가를 통해 시스템 신뢰도평가의 정확도 향상 방안을 제시한다.

철도건설공사는 많은 예산, 인력, 장비가 투입되고 이에 따른 안전사고도 많이 발생하고 있다. 국가적 차원에서 철도건설현장의 안전사고를 줄이고자 노력하고 있으나 산업재해율은 감소 추세를 보이지 않고 있다. 안전사고를 감소시키고 재해자 수를 줄이기 위하여 그동안 다양한 관리적, 기술적 방법이 적용되었으나 효과가 미미하였고 최근 IoT 기반의 스마트 건설안전기술의 적용을 통해 이를 극복하려고 노력하고 있다. 하지만, 기술 효과에 대한 분석 없이 무분별하게 스마트 건설안전기술을 도입하다 보면 중복 투자가 발생할 수 있으며, 이는 국가 예산으로 건설되는 철도건설공사의 예산 낭비로 이어질 수 있을 것이다. 본 연구는 철도건설공사 관계자 설문조사를 통해 재해사례를 분석하여 발생 빈도가 높은 재해 유형을 파악하고, 해당 재해 유형에 효과가 높을 것으로 판단되는 스마트 건설안전기술을 제안하고자 한다.

Modern systems development becomes more and more complicated due to the need on the ever-increasing capability of the systems. In addition to the complexity issue, safety concern is also increasing since the malfunctions of the systems under development may result in the accidents in both the test and evaluation phase and the operation phase. Light rail transit(LRT) with passenger capacity between bus and subway is driven by an unmanned control, so safety issues of LRT in emergency shall be considered more carefully than other rolling stock. Modern railway system is a complex system and many actions in emergency are required. In this view, interoperability approach is effective to identify the related elements in emergency. In this paper, we propose the method to generate the fire response scenario of unmann ed LRT based on the outputs of systems engineering architecture design methodology. The proposed method is could be contributed to establish more reliable and applicable fire response scenario.

The performance requirements on the safety-based functionality of railway signal systems have been reinforced and the effort for enhancement of the existing system or development of the new system is being accordingly made. In particular, various technical researches on replacement or improvement of the existing ATS(Automatic Train Stop) signaling system are now in progress for better operational efficiency. In this study, the complementary points for improvement or replacement of the currently used system(i.e., ATS) will be derived in terms of operating efficiency in an integrated operating environment with the newly introduced system(e.g., ATC: Automatic Train Control). This study can contribute to derive the need for improvement of the signaling system by checking the interface problems and comparing between different systems through the analysis of real operation cases in the field. Eventually, this analysis can be applied to prevent and estimate the collision accidents can be caused by the failure of the signaling system in advance. In addition, the results can be used to provide a future direction to secure the reliability in the parallel operation by integration based on different railway signaling systems.

As a very important part in development of the protocol, verifications for developed protocol specification are complementary techniques that are used to increase the level of confidence in the system functions by their specifications. Using the informal method for specifying the protocol, some ambiguity may be contained therein. This indwelling ambiguity in control systems can cause the occurrence of accidents, especially in the case of safety-critical systems. To clear the vagueness contained in the designed protocol, we use the LTS (Labeled Transition System) model to design the protocol for railway signaling. And then, we verify the safety and the liveness properties formally through the model checking method. The modal ${\mu}$-calculus, which is an expressive method of temporal logic, has been applied to the model checking method. We verify the safety and liveness properties of Korean standard protocol for railway signaling systems. To perform automatic verification of the safety and liveness properties of the designed protocol, a communication verification tool is implemented. The developed tools are implemented by C++ language under Windows XP. It is expected to increase the safety and reliability of communication protocol for signaling systems by using the developed communication verification tool.

Railroad signaling systems are to control intervals and routes of trains. There are ATS, ATP, ATO and ATC system. Trains are operated in the section which is met on the signaling system because various signaling systems are used in Korea. Hence, trains are not operated in the section which is used in the other signaling system. To solve this problem, recently combined on-board system has been developed. The combined on-board system designed by doubling the ATS, ATP and ATC system to ensure the safety of system. The inductance of antenna is change and in return the resonance frequency of antenna is varied by the electromagnetic induction. Therefore, the information signal is not received exactly in the combined on-board system and in return accidents between trains occur. In this paper, electric model of the combined on-board system for considering the ATS and ATP antenna is presented. Moreover, the mutual inductance including the distance between the ATS and ATP antenna is calculated. As a result of the frequency response of the antennas, the mutual inductance met on operation range of resonance frequency is defined.

Railroad shunting movements connecting and disconnecting train sets are very susceptible to human errors since they depend on human decision-making and action procedure that are variable to situation to situation. Nevertheless, in the investigation of railroad accidents, all the accident causes related with human factors have merely been categorized as 'careless treatment' of the workers without any systematic approach of behavioral sciences or the analysis of human errors. In this research, therefore, 137 accident cases occurred during railroad shunting movements and 435 accident cases occurred during driving were analyzed with a special interest of human errors. According to results, the traditional accident investigation scheme used for last several decades did not seem to be appropriate for catching up true accident causes with respect to human errors. In addition, both signal men and locomotive drivers made many mistakes in judgement/action stage while the former mainly commit judgement tasks where as the latter mainly commit cognition tasks. Ant those tasks such as 'confirmation of signal and route', 'location check-up of connected train sets', and 'route identification for a shift of track' ranked highly for accident susceptibility.

When doing maintenance works at the trackside of railway, the method which delivers information on approaching of train to maintenance workers through alarm devices such as the flag or indication light, etc., is being used by locating persons in charge of safety alarm in addition to the maintenance workers at fixed distances in the front and rear of the workplace. Workers maintaining at the trackside may collide with the train since they cannot recognize the approach of train although it approaches to the vicinity of maintenance workplace because of the sensory block phenomenon occurred due to their long hours of continued monotonous maintenance work. The clash or rear-end collision accidents between many maintenance trains called motor-cars can be occurred since there are cases where the signal systems for safe operation of motor-car such as track circuit etc. are blocked or not operated normally. We developed the new safety equipment for protection of trackside maintenance workers using radio frequency signals and bidirectional detection mechanism. The developed safety equipment must analyze the several operational mechanism for each different operation situations. In this paper the analysis results are represented.

This study derives the risk-Influence factors for subway structures, the basis for the transition from the current subway disaster recovery-oriented maintenance system to a preemptive disaster management system, to reduce risk factors for existing subway structures. To apply reasonable risk assessment techniques, risk influence factors for subway underground structures using statistical information(spatial information) and risk influence factors according to frequency of accidents were selected to derive the risk factors. The significant risk factors were verified through ground subsidence (SI: Subsidence Impact)-based correlation analysis. This process confirmed that the subsidence of the ground was a risk influence factor for the subway structure. The main result of this study is that derive the risk factors to improve the risk factors of subway structures due to the rapid increase in disaster risk factors. The derived risk factors that were expected to affect the depression around subway stations and track structures did not show a noticeable correlation, but the cause of this may be that there is no physical connection between them, but on the other hand, the accumulated data may not accurately record the surrounding depression. Accordingly, in order to evaluate the risk of depression around the station and track, more intensive observation and data accumulation around the structure are required.
