The existing city which consists of the downtown in Korea has been built spontaneously, and it is in difficulties for the distribution problem and traffic congestion since undersupply of social facilities cannot afford to handle the increasing traffic demand. So the traffic facilities have been reinforced to increase the competitiveness of the city and solve the related problems. The need of a new transit system considering the transport capacity and environment-friendliness is emerging as revitalization of public transportation is needed for reduce of personal transportation. In case of local governments that the Self-Reliance Ratio of local finance is high, if they promote the business by tram transit low which period could be shorten, it can correspond the traffic policy and invigorate the introduction of the new traffic system.

Korean Train Express (KTX) has been commercially operating and achieving elevation on transport capacity since 2004. And the first hish-speed prototype test train, HSR-350x, was developed and succeeded in testing of running over 350km/h. Now KTX-II based on HSR-350x was started in service run. The new high-speed train development project, HEMU-400x project, has started since 2007. The protype train is being designed and manufactured. After the train are developed completely, it will run on the commercial line and will be test to verify the estimated performance. The authors devised the performance evaluation method and process of the HEMU-400x prototype system. And we introduce the definite performance test items and the method to vitrificate them in this paper.

This paper proposed a new 2D multibody dynamic modeling technique to analyze overriding behavior taking place during train collision. This dynamic model is composed of nonlinear spring, damper and mass by considering the deformable characteristics of carbodies as well as energy absorbing structures and components. By solving this dynamic model of rollingstock, collision energy absorption capacity, acceleration of passenger sections, impact forces applied to interconnecting devices, and overriding displacements can be well estimated. For a case study, we choose KHST (Korean High Speed Train), obtained crush characteristic data of each carbody section from 3D finite element analysis, and established a 2D multibody dynamic model. This 2D dynamic model was suggested to describe the collision behavior of 3D Virtual Testing Model.

Power semiconductor which is adapted in the rolling stock has a high practicality for capacity of high voltage and high speed switching. but it has a trouble of fever cause of high speed On, Off switching loss and the operating junction temperature is limited to $150^{/circ}C$ because is made from the silicon for the foundation material. Therefore, it is important to find a way out of this trouble and must make the countermeasure. In this research, the caloric value of the integrated PEM is calculated to adapt the optimized heat pipe and the reliability of the heat pipe is demonstrated through the cooling performance test and vibration test.

The indoor air quality guideline of public transportation means was prepared recently. therefore we consider a countermeasure for the indoor air quality improvement of public transportation means. In this work, air-cleaner with roll filter system which developed alternative of indoor air quality guideline. The develpoed roll filter system is two function. the first function harmoniously circulated to heating and cooling air through HVAC system and secondary function removed PM(particluatie matters) which re-scatting to passenger's movement and suppled from outdoor air. Filter media of roll filter system select optimum electret mesh filter out of many filter media. Selected filter media was performanced tests of pressure drop, collection efficiency and dust holding capacity. Finally developed roll filter system was performanced bench test.

Urban transit or subway stations generally service for a long period of several decades. And, the urban transit or subway is public transportation which lots of people takes every day. During the service time, they are inevitably damaged from environmental corrosion, material aging, fatigue, and the coupling effects with long-term loads and extreme loads. The included damage accumulates and performance degenerates due to the above factors. They would inevitably reduce the resisting capacity of station against the disaster; even they result in collapse with the structural failure under extreme loads. And, if disaster such as earthquake, fire, etc. happens, it causes huge property damage and threatens the human lives. Because of these above reasons, the intelligent health surveillance system should be researched and developed for ensuring the safety of station. In this paper, the research plans of the intelligent health surveillance system of urban transit station are presented. And also, the development or establishment directions of this system are suggested.

Communications Based Train Control(CBTC) is a continuous, automatic train control system utilizing high-resolution, train location determination independent of track circuits; continuous, high capacity, bi-directional train-to-wayside data communications; and trainborne and wayside processors capable of implementing vital functions. In this paper, we present a basic design of CBTC system based on ERTMS/ETCS specifications. The basic design is composed of system requirements analysis, system functional analysis, system architectural design, sub-system requirements analysis, sub-system functional analysis. Each deliverable has been produced according to a development process based on UML/SysML.

The traction motor for High Speed Train is being required reliability and stability for high-speed operation. And also required low noise level, high performance, compact size owing to the space and weight limitation for attaching to train, etc. As a result of requiring the low noise level and high power capacity, it is adopted forced-air-ventilation insead of self-ventilation that is generally used on electric multiple unit. Traction motor is cooled by cooling air through the air-ventilation hole. When the traction motor is operated with forced-air-ventilation, there is some abnormal noise in the specific RPM. This paper is dealing with the method to reduce the resonance phenomena by adopting the rotor blade.

Radio frequency identification, or RFID, is a generic term for technologies that use radio wave to automatically identify people or objects. UHF RFID technology is used for everything from tracking goods within their supply chain, working in process and for other applications. If RFID is applied in wheel scanner that is a important equipment to measure a diameter, width, height of wheel, efficiency in maintenance will be improved because of checking data in real-time. In domestic technology, capacity of wheel scanner technology as well as RFID are less good than foreign goods there a up to current day a point of read range, anti-collision, a tolerance. Therefore, sturdy on the development of wheel scanner using RFID technology to measure wheel in maintenance of rolling stock was carried out in this paper.

Recently, the development of the paved track is required as a low-maintenance of conventional line. The main reason is that the line capacity and bearing of track are increased progressively. The important factors of paved track are stability and applicability. To be based on this subject, Cement Mortar Pouring(CMP) paved track is developed. CMP paved track is a kind of ballast reinforced track using the prepacked concrete technique. The most important thing to design the paved track is to optimize the track structure considering various conditions. In this study, the CMP track is constructed(30m) on a test line and the track performance tested by running train to evaluation the capability and workability. The track performance are tested to confirm the vibration acceleration of the car body, wheel and track, accumulated settlement, track irregularity and crack of surface.
