Stainless rolling stocks are usually fabricated by spot welding process without painting. Indentation on the surface of the car body after spot welding injures the beauty of the stainless rolling stocks. In this study, insulated electrode tips to reduce the indentation are developed and applied to the actual spot welding works. The developed tips are composed of head, neck, hole for cooling water, body and resistance material. They provide large surface contact area with the base materials during spot welding and enhance the current density by necking. Experimental results using the developed tips show that small indentation and sufficient tensile shear strength is produced due to large contact area and enhanced current density.

Many papers have been conducted on the applications of honeycomb sandwich maintenance, and to improve the high speed and light weight in rolling stocks, aircrafts and so on. The end door of rolling stock is generally made of rolled steel or stainless steel. Thus, the weight of these materials are heavier than of nonferrous metals and thermal deformation by welding or complexity of manufacturing process is occurred. Therefore, this paper is aimed to develop the light weight by application of end door which is made of aluminum honeycomb sandwich panels in rolling stocks and to propose the standards of design and evaluation for its adhesively bonded strength.

Recently, STS 301L joints of side panels to frames for stainless steel rolling stock have been made out by using existing welding methods including Resistance Spot Welding, Laser Welding and Arc Welding. Most of the processes were jointed by spot welding because it is faster at welding and comparatively less expensive for investment in welding facilities than other methods. During spot welding, however, indentation of the metal surface was made due to pressure and melting property of welding. Moreover, since the melting metal was forced to periphery of the plate as indentation was made, sheet separation, which cracked apart between jointed sheets, was carried out. A slight deformation which resulted from sheet separation deteriorated the emotional quality of railway vehicles. This paper suggests that by processing conventional spot electrode tip appropriately, melting metal is able to push up around the processed part (Hollow Spot Electrode Tip) and prevent from being dislodged from first place to periphery. Consequently, sheet separation is remarkably decreased. Also, the emotional quality of appearance of stainless steel rolling stock is enhanced considerably.

Most advanced countries are researching to apply light weight materials far rolling stock because weight reduction for railway body derives cost-saving, energy-saving, and high-speed. Likewise, current Korea rolling stock field makes arduous effects of weight-reduction, miniaturization, and high-efficiency to achieve a high-speed railway. Aluminum becomes suitable material for these projects because it is much lighter than steel or stainless. Manufacturing the railway car body by using the Aluminum is increasing because Aluminum is not bringing the corrosion by unique oxidation-passivate. Aluminum extrusion profile far railway body requires a high mechanical property, accurate shape dimension, and stable quality because the railway body is composed with many different kinds of extruded profiles. Therefore, it is necessary to research about Aluminum precision-extrusion technology to maintain exit temperature and die load. The goal of this project is applying the Aluminum extrusion profile to next-generation railway car body by developing the Aluminum extrusion profile according to precision-extrusion technology which may maintain isothermal exit temperature.

Under frame side sill of rolling stock structure is designed for preventing corrosion in order to meet mechanical requirements. However during long operation time more than 20 years, there are corrosion in the under frame side sill caused by environmental effect, vibration and etc. So, detection and evaluation of the corrosion ill the under frame nondestructive is one of important issues to extend their life time. Most of nondestructive methods are not easy to apply for detecting corrosion in the under frame side sill, since the under frame side sill consist of there layered with different material (stainless steel - stainless steel - mild steel) and each layer is connected by spot weld and plug weld. Fortunately, pulsed eddy current method claimed that it can be measured not only thickness change but also corrosion under their insulation layers. So, in this study, we have investigated performance of pulsed eddy current testing method by measuring thickness variation of fabricate of mock-up specimens. The investigation results obtained from mock-up specimens and the corrosion evaluation results of the aged rolling stocks will be presented.

The operation of double deck train have increased in many countries such as Japan france, and the Netherlands as efficient, safe and convenient alternative transportation systems. Because of continuous concentration of population into Seoul metropolitan and serious traffic jam, the number of passengers using the commuter train have been increased rapidly. Considering these situations, we can find one of the solutions for heavy traffic problems through double deck trains. Stainless steel, and aluminum extruded panel are used to reduce the weight of double deck train. In this paper we compare the results of structural analysis of the double deck car body structures with Al extruded panels and stainless steel. We hope the results of this study may be used as basic guidelines in designing double deck trains in the future.

신규 개발된 초연성 듀플렉스 스테인레스강은 강도와 연성이 우수하기 때문에 철도차량 차체에 적용하여 경량화와 가공 효율화에 기여할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 듀플렉스 스테인레스강의 장점을 인터모달 트램 차체에 활용하기 위해 점용접성 시험을 수행하였다. 다양한 두께 (0.4mm에서 5.0mm까지)의 시편을 가공하고 점용접 시험을 통해 적정 용접조건을 찾아내었다. 인장하중 시험을 통해 점용접 이음의 인장-전단 강도를 평가하였고, 품질을 확인하기 위해 너깃 지름을 측정하였다. 인장-전단 하중 시험 결과의 분석을 통해, 이음부의 인장-전단 강도는 입열 파라미터에 비례함을 알 수 있었다. 인장-전단 강도와 너깃 지름는 모두 규격에서 요구하는 기준을 만족함도 입증되었다. 전체적인 용접성 시험 결과, 듀플렉스 스테인레스강 소재는 인터모달 트램 차체에 효과적으로 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

철도차량의 차체 구조는 초기의 전(全) 목제에서 강제 후레임과 목제 차체의 조합, 리벳으로 결합한 전(全)강제차체, 전(全) 용접결합의 모노코크(monocoque)차체로 변천해 왔다. 구체의 재료 또한 Mild Steel이 많이 사용되어 왔으나, 가볍고 내식성이 우수한 경량 스테인레스 구체와 알루미늄 구체의 적용 비율이 급격히 높아지고 있다. 구조적으로는 종래의 골조와 외판으로 구성된 싱글 스킨 구조인 SSD (Sheet_Stringer Design)에서, 알루미늄 구체와 같이 대형 중공압출형재로 구성된 전(全)더블스킨 구조인 AED(All Extrusion Design)가 실용화되고 있다. 종래의 알루미늄 차체는 소형 압출재로 제작되어 용접에 의한 열영향을 받는 범위가 매우 크고 매우 취약한 특성 때문에 나타나는 용접결합 부분의 강성 저하가 많은 문제점을 일으켰다. 본 연구에서는 확장형 알루미늄 압출형재를 사용하여 부재 수를 감소시킴으로서 용접 공수를 줄이고 결합부의 용접 집중을 최소화 하여 품질 및 차체 강성을 향상 시킬 수 있는 방안을 제시하였다.
