Using composite materials for the carbody of tilting train has many advantages such as manufacturing variety, specific high-strength ＆ stiffness characteristics, and long-life durability, but the strongest advantage could be the possibility of lightweight product. In the leading countries, the composite materials are used for the material fur drivers'cabs, interior/exterior equipments for railway train, and it is now developing the composite materials applied for the train carbody structure. In this paper, we conducted the evaluation of structural stability for the aluminum and composite carbody of the Korean Tilting Train express(TTX) with the service speed of 180km/h.

The weight reduction of carbody structures is of great concern in developing high speed tilting train for the normal operation of tilting system. The use of composite materials for the carbody structures has many advantages due to their excellent material properties. In this paper, finite element analysis was conducted to analysis and design the composite structure of Tilting Train eXpress(TTX). According to JIS E 7105, static load tests were performed and the structural safety of the composite carbody structure was verified by conducting finite element analysis of the model to which reinforcing frame are added in the composite carbody structure. In addition, modal analysis was conducted to estimate the natural frequency of a train.

섬유강화 적층 복합재 차체 구조물의 강도를 평가하기 위해 전체 적층판 접근방법의 적용을 제시하였다. 180km/h급의 한국형 틸팅열차의 하이브리드 복합재 자체 기본설계를 검증하기 위해서 구조해석을 수행하였으며 또한 복합재 적층판의 강도를 구하기 위해 기계적 물성시험을 수행하였다. 결과적으로, 한국형 틸팅열차의 복합재 자체 구조물에서 발생하는 응력값들은 모두 파손영역의 안전한 범위 내에 존재하였으며 전체 적층판 접근방법은 초기 기본석계 단계에서 하이브리드 복합재 자체 구조물의 파손을 예측하는데 매우 유용함을 증명하였다.

There are the marked differences between the design techniques of carbody structures made of composite materials and metal materials. The design techniques of carbody structures made of metal materials have already been guaranteed in the domestic field. But, in case of the hybrid composite carbody structures, it is the first attempt to be developed and there is no experience of the design in the railway applications. In this paper, the design techniques of hybrid composite structures were introduced and compared with that of the conventional metal carbody.

In order to evaluate the strength of carbody structures of railway rolling stock made of laminated fiber-reinforced composite materials, total laminate approach was introduced. Structural analyses were conducted to check the basic design of the hybrid composite carbody structure of the Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX) with the service speed of l80km/h. The mechanical tests were also conducted to obtain strengths of composite laminates. The results shown that all stress components of composite carbody structures were inside of failure envelopes and total laminate approach was recommended to predict the failure of composite carbody structures at the stage of the basic design.

The hybrid composite carbody structures were considered as the carbody system of Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX) to achieve the lightweight design. The TTX carbodies are composed of the carbody shell made of the sandwich composite structure and the undeframe made of the metal structure. The sandwich structures were used to minimize the weight of carbody, and the metal underframe was used to modify the design easily and to keep the strength of underframe by the installation of the electrical equipments. The sandwich carbody structures will be cured in an autoclave. In this paper, the manufacturing processes of the TTX carbody structures were introduced briefly.

Regarding some of the components of the Korean Tilting Train eXpress(TTX), the lightweight-vehicle development was mainly focused to this study, and so as using the materials, the existing material, steel or aluminum carbody was changed to the composite carbody with both design and manufacturing methods. Therefore the evaluation of the performance of joint strength between composite and metallic boundary area, especially the under frame and the carbody was required, and the compressive and the bending tests were conducted as the sub-scale specimen. In this evaluation, there was involved the sufficient strengths at the joint area between the underframe and the carbody, and is resulted as the increment of the safety factor through the observation of failure conditions.

This paper explains manufacturing process and experimental studies on a composite carbody of Korean tilting train. The composite carbody with length of 23m was manufactured as a sandwich structure composed of a 40mm-thick aluminium honeycomb core and 5mm-thick woven fabric carbon/epoxy face. In order to evaluate structural behavior and safety of the composite carbody, the static load tests such as vertical load, end compressive load, torsional load and 3-point support load tests have been conducted. These tests were performed under Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) 17105 standard. From the tests, maximum deflection was 12.3mm and equivalent bending stiffness of the carbody was 0.81$\times$10$^{14}$ kgf$\cdot$mm$^{2}$ Maximum stress of the composite body was lower than 12.2$\%$ of strength of the carbon/epoxy. Therefore, the composite body satisfied the Japanese Industrial Standard.

This research presents the manufacturing process and the structural strength assessment for the hybrid composite carbody. In this study, the manufacturing process for carbody with length of 23m was explained. The composite carbody was fabricated as one body using autoclave with length of 30m and 5m diameter. The structural behavior of the carbody under the 3-point supporting and the natural frequency were evaluated as well. In addition, the test results were compared with the numerical one. From the tests, the structural strength of the hybrid composite carbody was assessed.
