팬터그래프와 전차선간의 접촉력 특성은 열차의 집전성능을 나타내는 중요한 특성으로서 국제규격에 따른 엄격한 관리가 필요한 항목이다. 최근에는 소음저감 커버가 고속열차의 팬터그래프 주위에 설치가 되고 있으나 팬터그래프 커버에 의한 접촉력 특성에 대한 연구는 거의 수행되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 차세대고속열차(HEMU-430X)를 이용하여 팬터그래프 커버가 팬터그래프의 집전성능에 미치는 영향을 동적 접촉력 측정을 통하여 분석하였다. 그 결과 팬터그래프 커버가 부착이 되면 300km/h 주행 시 평균접촉력이 약 50N 낮아짐을 확인하였다. 또한 정적압상력을 제외한 순수한 팬터그래프 커버 유무에 의한 평균접촉력의 차이는 300km/h에서 최대 110N까지 측정되었다. 한편 팬터그래프 커버에 의하여 접촉력 표준편차가 약 3~5N 변화하는 것도 확인하였다.

Nowadays rolling stock has become a fast and convenient transportation and increased in its demands. But the improvement of speed has result in increase of aerodynamic noise and therefore residential districts near by the railroad are now constantly suffering from the racket. Thus the study regarding rolling stock's environmental noise measurement and appraisal has become important. The case of environmental noise, there are no changes of tone so prediction can be made by reducing areas around the railway. This is part of the study which estimates the noise around the railway using scaled model, and the source of the noise has been researched on. The scaled model of rolling stock will have to be able to make high frequency and it needs to be spread out in a short amount of time. When popping a balloon or firing a gun fits its condition and this study analyzed the characteristics of these two different noises. Measurement was held on a wide vacant lot and the reflection effect of the ground is additionally examined. It is judged to be used in the future when predicting the environmental noise of railway vehicles.

At the crossings of turnout systems, noise is generated by the impact of train on the connection points. However, rapid movement changes between rail and wheels on connection point are inevitable on existing turnout section which may cause safety concern as well as noise problem caused by repeated impact load by passing train. And given the turnout is a complicated system which combines various functions such as rolling stock, trackbed, signaling, communication and electrical system, it's very difficult to expect to improve the overall performance of the turnout in such a way of optimizing only particular part of such integrated system. Since the turnout is the only movable section among the integrated parts and has complicated structure that inevitably brings about quick and sudden movement, safety has been still put on the top of the list. This study was aimed at comparing and analyzing the noise data obtained around the turnout of existing railway, by categorizing them into tilting train, high speed train and traditional train, and by distance, speed and type of turnout. And based on the data measured, the forecast of noise level when tilting train accelerates around a turnout was conducted in the study.

제동 스킬소음은 승객과 선로 주변의 주민에게 불편을 끼쳐 시급히 해결해야 할 문제의 하나이지만 해결책을 찾는 것은 쉽지 않다. 제동 스킬소음을 저감하기 위한 해결책은 크게 제동 마찰재의 소재를 개량하거나 제동패드의 구조를 개선하는 것으로 구분할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 현재 KTX 차량에 사용되고 있는 제동패드를 기준으로 마찰재의 소재만을 바꾼 패드와, 동일한 마찰재 소재를 사용하지만 구조를 유연형으로 바꾼 제동패드를 제작하여 제동 다이나모미터에서 다양한 조건으로 마찰특성과 소음특성을 평가하고 영업차량이 역에 정차할 때 측정한 스킬소음과 비교 및 분석하였다. 제동 다이나모미터 시험이 실차 시험을 어느 정도 재현하는 것이 가능한다는 것을 발견하였고, 영업열차에서 최고 스킬소음이 발생한 4,500Hz 대역의 스킬소음은 다이나모미터 시험에서도 정확히 일치하고, 이 주파수는 제동디스크의 고유진동수와 일치하는 것을 규명하였다. 제동 스킬소음이 발생하는 주파수는 캘리퍼에 작용하는 압력, 시험온도, 그리고 제동 초속도에 따라 달라지지만 일정한 경향을 보여주지는 않았다. 개발된 제동패드의 평균 마찰계수는 0.35~0.45의 범위에 있고 마찰재 소재만을 바꾼 경우는 21.6dB(A), 구조를 변경한 경우는 17.3dB(A) 만큼 최대 소음을 줄일 수 있었다.

Recently, many technologies of the P.L.C (Power Line Carrier) are introduced for an efficient communication. P.L.C communication sends information in the carrier signals by conduction over the power wire. An arc detector is proposed in this paper for the effective transmission. The Power Line Carrier has an advantage in low cost because it uses existent power line. It can be easily applied anywhere that a power line socket is available. But the P.L.C. is very noisy, because many electronic devices in generate electronic noise in modulated signals. This problem should be considered carefully in the design of the arc detector system using P.L.C in railway. The proposed system can be applied for monitoring the arc detector system and the arc locator system in railway. Hence the system will be able to exchange the arc information to be T.C.M.S. (Train Control Management System), bogies and even between a station and trains in railway and use to suspicion fire in train.

In this paper, we propose a technique to determine the normal and arc of an alternating current using a mixed filter composed of an average filter and a band-pass filter and a frequency analysis. The proposed method uses the moving average filter of the FIR filter structure for noise removal and the band-pass filter of the IIR filter structure for detecting only specific frequency components after normalizing the measured current signal based on the maximum value. After performing Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) using the band-pass filtered signal, the total energy is calculated using the magnitude component of the frequency, and the arc is detected using the magnitude of the calculated energy. In order to show the validity of the proposed method, we experimented with various data and found that arc and steady state can be easily discriminated by calculating spectral energy. Therefore, it is considered that the proposed method can be applied to arc diagnosis of low voltage electric wire.

Reliable velocity estimation technology for trains is one of technologies used to operate trains safely and effectively. Various sensors such as tachometers, doppler radars, and global positioning systems are used to estimate velocity of a train. Tachometer is widely used to estimate velocity of a trains due to its simplicity, small volume, cost-effectiveness, continuously measurement at high speed, and robustness against noise. Accuracy in the velocity calculation using a tachometer depends on quantization error, measurement error of wheel radius or diameter, and tachometer's imperfection from manufacturing or installation process. In this paper, we present an accurate velocity estimation method using a low-resolution tachometer, which is commonly installed on a high-speed train. Baseline estimation method is proposed to accurately calculate the velocity of the high-speed train from tachometer's pulses. HEMU-430x test train is used for the experiment and verification of the proposed method. Experimental results with several routes show that the proposed method is more accurate than a conventional method.

The railway system requires safety and reliability of service of all railway vehicles. Suitable technical systems and working methods adapted to it, which meet the requirements on safety and good order of traffic, should be maintained. For detection of defects, non-destructive testing methods-which should be quick, reliable and cost-effective - are most often used. Since failure in railway wheelset can cause a disaster, regular inspection of defects in wheels and axles are mandatory. Ultrasonic testing, acoustic emission and eddy current testing method and so on regularly check railway wheelset in service. However, it is difficult to detect a crack initiation clearly with ultrasonic testing due to noise echoes. It is necessary to develop a non-destructive technique that is superior to conventional NDT techniques in order to ensure the safety of railway wheelset. In the present paper, the new NDT technique is applied to the detection of surface defects for railway wheelset. To detect the defects for railway wheelset, the sensor for defect detection is optimized and the tests are carried out with respect to surface and internal defects each other. The results show that the surface crack depth of 1.5 mm in press fitted axle and internal crack in wheel could be detected by using the new method. The ICFPD method is useful to detect the defect that initiated in railway wheelset.

The basic element of the EMS suspension is the electromagnet system, which suspends the vehicle without contact by attracting forces to the rails at the guideway. The suspension of a vehicle by attractive magnetic forces is inherently unstable and consequently it is continuously adjusted by the strength of the suspending electromagnet from rail irregularity and bending of the guideway. In order to improve reliable tracking, it needs to get feedback signals without measurement delay time. In this paper the concept of feedback control system with Kalman Filter in EMS is proposed. The input signals in the feedback control system are an air-gap and an acceleration signal. The air-gap signal with noise from the gap sensor is transformed to the filtered air-gap signal y without measurement delay time by using Kalman Filter. The filtered air-gap signal is transformed to a relative velocity and a relative acceleration signal. Then it multiplies these values by gain matrix in order to get the actuator's reference voltage value. The simulation results show that the dynamic responses of the suspension system can be improved by reducing the influence of measurement delay time of air-gap signals.

This research helps you understand the road traffic noise levels by using a noise map. We have observed the change of the road traffic noise levels around $07:00{\sim}08:30\;and\;22:00{\sim}23:00$ using the noise map in the city. The road traffic noise level is very high both at noon and at night around a beltway and an interchange that is linked with a highway. It seems that the main route of so many vehicles, which are at neighboring cities such as N city and D and H districts and which avoid traffic jams in the city, is the beltway and interchange. The road traffic noise level of a nearby express bus terminal, railroad station, and airport is more than 75 dB at noon and 65 dB at night. The road traffic noise level of G city at night is observed to be more than 55 dB. The noise levels of a residence area and a university are higher than a road with high noise levels when the commuters drive to work. The end of the day exceeds 11 o'clock because of a culture level of development that arouses spare time, eating out, adults' drinking culture, nightlife of the youth, etc. Therefore, the road traffic noise level is high during late night hours, and it exceeds regulatory guidelines(55 dB(A)). It also damages the residence area that is located near the road.
