  • Rolling Stock life cycle can not provide weakness of environment due to the absence DB on about environment information for contaminant, expense analysis on each step which consists of raw material-design-manufacture-running-waste step. In order to estimate environmental impacts on LCA for rolling stock system, scientifically and internationally fair standards of assessment method for pursuing environmental friendly in environment regulation policy, application of LCA system is proposed and introduced in the present paper.

  • En case of the fatigue life evaluation of rolling stock structures, mainly deterministic fatigue life evaluation has been carried out. But most of the parameters influencing on the fatigue life have a probabilistic distribution such as normal, log-normal, Weibull, etc. Therefore, to take probabilistic factors into fatigue life evaluation, probabilistic methods are being applied to the fatigue life evaluation of rolling stock. In this paper, probabilistic S-N analysis and methods using limit state functions are introduced. And some results of fatigue life evaluation obtained with these methods for rolling stock structures are shown.

  • This paper describes the evaluation methods and criteria used verify field performance of automatic multi-coupler for the PMC rolling stock. Automatic multi-coupler was designed and manufactured by KRRI , Woojin electric machinery CO., and Yujinchajeon MFG.CO., LTD in 1999. Through field performance test of PMC rolling stock, vibration, brake system, assembly and disassembly of complex train were measured on the condition of service operation. As a result, test results meet the criteria proposed by KNR and KRRI.

  • KTX Railway rolling stock wheel run its course to corrode, deteriorate and wear away through out the time. So it is natural that the performance and ability of wheel gets declined. The frequency characteristic analysis were accomplished to above trend and shock wave flow to wheels were examined. The result will be used to find Railway rolling stock wheel crack and maintenance method hereafter.

  • Static inverters are essential devices onboard of rolling stock. State-of-the-art static inverters have an impact on both rail infrastructure and vehicle maintenance due to their new topology with new features. The paper describes two important aspects as examples of new features available in state-of-the-art static inverters: active input current control and the effects on the rail infrastructure as well as the detection of the state of charge and the state of health of batteries to simplify vehicle maintenance.

  • The Centralized Traffic Control(CTC) System of Urban Railway is an element(subsystem) of the Urban Railway system to aim safety operation and efficient management of rolling stock in accordance with a train scheduling program in train operation ways. That's why the CTC System must be developed considering systematic and safety-guaranteed methods such as RAMS(Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, and Safety) refereed to IEC standards. The CTC System is consists of rolling stock, signaling, power supply, communication, and mechanical equipment and preforms control and remote monitoring functions. The technical activities considering safety process are very important at such an early stage of development in a railway project. This paper introduces RAMS activities and an independent safety assessment by $3^{rd}$ Party focused on a safety applied to a development of the CTC system of Urban Railway and proposes the experiences as well practices.
