The maximum speed of the conventional railway rolling-stock which is restrained to 150km/h will be increased to 200km/h with the development of korean tilting train. The improvement of quality for railway wheel which is closely connected with the safety of train is needed. On the one hand, the speed limit of the wheel standard for the conventional rolling-stock is 150km/h. Thus, a study on the safety of wheel structure, test items and criteria is needed to apply this standard to tilting train wheel. This study is started to present the improvement scheme and to extend the speed limit for conventional wheel standard. For this, we studied the safety of wheel structure, wheel material tests and the criteria for wheel standard and show the results

Railway vehicles equipped with semi-active suspension system can improve the ride quality of car bodies. Semi-active suspension system is usually applied onto high speed train, and therefore higher running safety requirement is desirable. The influence of semi-active suspension system on safety of vehicles running on straight line and curve line is studied, and the influences of sky hook damping coefficient and system time-delay on operational safety of cars fitted with semiactive suspension system is analyzed. The results show that in vehicles equipped with semi-active suspension system, while the vibration of car body is decreased, the running safety of cars is not affected to any significant degree. As a result, the ride quality is much improved with negligible deterioration of the running safety of cars.

Railway vehicles equipped with semi-active suspension system can improve the ride quality of car bodies. Semi-active suspension system is usually applied onto high speed train, and therefore higher running safety requirement is proposed. The influence of semi-active suspension system on safety of vehicles running on straight line and curve line is studied, and the influences of sky hook damping coefficient and system time-delay on operation safety of cars fitted with semiactive suspension system is analyzed. The results show that the vehicles equipped with semi-active suspension system, not only the vibration of car body is decreased, it can also give little influence on running safety of cars, as a result, it will not endanger the running safety of cars.

As a railway is receiving attention as an environment-friendly transportation mode, many high speed, inter-city and urban railway are constructed and remodeled in the world. With this trend, railway RAMS was included in the international standard IEC 62278 in 2002. RAMS activity in domestic market is also increased with this international trend. However, IEC 62278 does not describe the methodology of substantial contents like how reliability target is set although it can be used as an overall guideline when RAMS requirements are included in the purchase specification. That is because RAMS requirements should be set with the specific railway condition. It is required to fully understand the meaning of railway RAMS parameters and apply those correspond to the specific railway system and environment condition especially when a quantitative RAMS requirement is set. In this study, the meaning and characteristics of RAMS parameters applicable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement of rolling stock is described. And the basic concept of RAMS and the definition of failure that IEC 62278 describes is modified and suggested in order to make more suitable to the development of quantitative RAMS requirement.

Facilities for disabled person are currently required for rolling stock and its requirements are increased. Researching and development to meet these requirements must be necessary. One of them, ramp between platform and train for wheelchair user was developed and applied in real project, the case is described as per the result. The main contents of this paper is for double leaves type wheelchair ramp development operated by manual. This ramp is fixed at floor area of interior with locking device. So operating is allowed for authorized person only. Beside of this, brief comparison with other types will be mentioned.

This study is to develop a Fe-based disc brake lining with sponge structure for rolling stock of 150km/h train and to concept design with 3 groove type for brake disc reducing hot hair-crack and certainly friction coefficient. The developing brake lining would be to presumption of saving 300 million won during one year

Underframes of rolling stock structure are made of hot rolled steel of SS400 or SM490A. While these underframe steels are designed to satisfy the mechanical requirements, their corrosion behavior also should taken into account. Underframes are coated to prevent corrosion, but they are often defected by external factors to result in local corrosion which may cause the weakness of mechanical strength. Thus, the corrosion of underframe steels was examined through atmospheric corrosion test to estimate service life and safety.

Ventilation system on passenger rooms should be designed for the health and comfort of the passengers. One of the main aim is to create an acceptable thermal environment without draught problems. The draught sensation increases when the air temperature decreases and the air velocity increases. Airflow in passenger rooms is turbulent. Lateral temperature and humidity gradients in the electric rolling stock have been studied. And, the difference in the mean temperatures measured at 0.7, 0.9, 1.2, 1.7 m above the floor. It has been found that temperature with large fluctuations caused more draught complains.

The machine structure or parts has been arrive at a fracture, depend on crack by repeated load. Machine designer is estimate of fatigue strength in early stages the design for prevent fatigue fracture, then necessary its load history. This research study is using diesel locomotive in measurement of load history for fatigue design of rolling stock. The relation between velocity and amplitude of load history was found. We confirmed that the increase of velocity make to increase the magnitude of amplitude.

In this study, test standards were developed for performance verification of the high speed(350km/h) rolling-stock. The performance test system consist of three type tests; the component test for core item, the completed car test for combined function & operation and the trial driving test for compatibility & interrelationship with infrastructure.
