Power supply system of electric railway has a diversity of safety problems since it should supply high electric power to the trains moving high speed with a lot of passengers on board. This paper provides a risk assessment approach to safety management of the electric railway facilities. Construction of database from field accident information, risk assessment and management of the risk are carried out systematically to ensure the safety. The risk assessment includes hazard identification, cause analysis by FTA(Fault Tree Analysis), consequence analysis by EVA(Event Tree Analysis), and loss analysis. In terms of the severity and the probability of the accidents deduced by these analyses, the risk of the accidents is assessed by using a risk matrix designed for electric railway facilities. Based on the risk assessment, possible risk mitigation options are identified and evaluated by analyzing their impact on the risk reduction and their cost benefit ratio. The long-term safety of the electric railway facilities can be ensured by renewal of the risk assessment and the risk mitigation option analysis with continuous accident database update. The proposed approach is applied to the electric railway facilities of Korean railway based on the accident data from 2002 to 2008.

Constructed structures, before the seismic design codes are established was not designed an earthquake resist. So, evaluate seismic performance of structures and appropriate strengthening are required. To seismic reinforcement of railway structures, literature investigation was conducted about a variety of domestic and international processing enhance and repair the existing maintenance. Also, facilities standardization group, in research group of railway standards, when applied the developed seismic reinforcement system to the railway, conducted the survey that can occur the uniqueness for construction. These specific changes that reflect the seismic reinforcement of the system was required to establish application requirements.

To meet demand for large-scale new personnel caused by active railway investment projects such as high-speed line construction, electrification and double-tracking of the existing lines, we KNR need to establish a subsidiary firm for each field instead of personnel augmentation. The establishment of subsidiaries is expected to solve the problem of the current outsourcing services, reduce costs and in the long term, improve the efficiency of railway business. In addition, we also suggest, as a pilot project, setting up Korean Freight Inspection Company in charge of conducting light and heavy maintenance for freight cars.

To establish the national railway safety system, the railway total safety technology development project has been promoted by Ministry of Construction and Transportation (MOCT) since August 2004. The project is mainly focused on the prevention of a critical railway accident and the reduction of accident/mortality rate. To achieve its goal effectively, the project is composed of 15 sub-projects each of which can be categorized into three different technological area. This work deals with the verification results for the outcomes of the sub-projects carried out at the 2nd year of the project. A new verification procedure is developed and applied to the project based on the system engineering. Three criterions - The suitability of the realization of a function, the suitability of a physical structure, the suitability of a design analysis report - are used for the verifications. The verification results are investigated by calculating standard deviations of scores of each results.

Railway systems are one of the best mass transit systems and many people have prevented incidents/accidents and reduced fatalities remarkably. Especially we have tried analyzing and finding the measures to prevent catastrophic accidents like train collision, derailment and fire because of their severities. It is important to assess the safety performances of railway systems like crash-worthiness analysis, body, derailment affecting factor analysis and so on for reducing and finding out the reasonable causes of disastrous accidents. In this paper the refined top-level system requirements to build-up national infra for assessing railway safety performance and the procedures and methodology for reviewing, verifying and validating infra requirements are explained. Basically the authors have used system engineering processes to analyze and verify the requirements and installation procedures and have tried maximizing the practicality of the various safety assessment systems.

A new type of girder named as Steel-Confined Prestressed Concrete Girder(SCP Girder) has been developed, which is composed of concrete, steel plate, and prestressing tendon. This girder may maximize structural advantages of these components, therefore it can be used to construct the middle or long span bridge with low-height girder. To verify the propriety of design, structural safety, and applicability of this girder, static load test was carried out. In this study, a design program was developed for practical design of railway bridge using SCP girder. And to verify the applicability of SCP girder to railway bridge, structural performance and economic efficiency based on the construction cost were compared with conventional railway bridges.

This paper describes the lightning protection system for railway signaling equipments installed at subway car depots in Seoul metropolitan Rapid Transit Cooperation. Several measures for improving lightning protection performance are adopted; newly organized grounding system for neutral line of power system, rolling method to minimize damages induced by direct lightning strike, new measures to reduce voltage differences between the signaling equipments and the ground, and improvement of grounding system. The proposed system has greatly reduced the grounding resistance and also the voltage difference between the signaling equipments and the ground, and has prevented the accident related with lightning surges since it was installed. The proposed approach can be viewed as a useful alternative of dealing with lightning protection for railway signaling equipments.

Railway has been pointed to the efficiency of transportation, rapid transit, and comfortable train ride. the construction of railway near the downtown area and station building are increasing for maximization of utilization and convenience. but the heavy of transportation and rapid transit lead to increase noise and vibration. the noise and vibration of railway may cause the civil appeal, decline in the serviceability and insufficiency of environmental standard. In this study, floating slab system which is one of the solution to avoid noise and vibration in railway has been introduced, and analyzed floating Slab Track into arrangement of reduction material of vibration. As a result of analysis, It was estimated the bearing installation though slab have not a negative factor and terminal arrangement of reduction material of vibration have advantage for static behavior.

There are lots of tunnel intervals in the KTX II stage construction line for the linearity of railway line passing mountain region. In order to use the rocks from tunnel excavations, railway subgrades are constructed with crushed rock-soil mixtures. In this study, plain strain test using large scale box was conducted in order to analyze the characteristics of deformation behavior of railway subgrades composed of crushed rock-soil mixtures. The effects of variation of degree of saturation, stress level of applied loadings, and number of loading cycles on the resilient and permanent deformation behavior were analyzed. The results show that degree of saturation have a great effect on the deformation behavior of crushed rock-soil mixtures. The axial strain ranges between $0.1{\sim}0.8%$ with variation of degree of saturation, in assumption that deviatoric stress applied on the subgrade by high-speed train load is 55kPa.

해중철도는 파도와 바람의 영향을 크게 받지 않는 해중을 통과하는 터널내에 고속열차가 운행하는 철도시스템으로 수심에 관계없이 설치할 수 있고, 모듈별 육상 제작후 해상 대조립으로 건설이 가능하기 때문에 건설비용이 획기적으로 절감될 수 있는 장점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 해중철도의 개념설계안을 소개하고 안전성 확보를 위해 해중에서 잠수함과 충돌하는 경우를 대상으로 해중철도의 구조적 거동을 해석할 수 있는 기법을 제시하고자 한다. 탄성지지된 보이론을 활용하여 해중철도 함체의 등가 질량을 계산하고 잠수함과 완전탄성 충돌시 속도를 계산하고 에너지 보존의 원리에 따라 함체의 변형량과 최대굽힘모멘트를 계산하였다. 결과의 검증을 위해 보요소를 사용하여 충돌 유한요소해석을 실시하였고, 비교를 통해 타당성을 확인하였다. 본 연구에서 제안한 충돌 이론 해법은 간편하게 함체의 변형량과 최대굽힘모멘트를 계산할 수 있어 초기 설계시에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있다.
