The major objective of this study is to investigate the effective improvement plan for the curve sections in the conventional lines which the tilting train runs on. In order to the speed-up of conventional lines that have many curve lines, there needs a improvement construction of substructure such as the straight or double track work and so on. But in this case, it needs to have a plenty of the cost and the period. Therefore, the tilting train which provides the high-speed service effectively in curve tracks and is operating at abroad, was been studying to be suited to natural features. So, in this paper we investigate the improvement method at the sections only where need the extension of the transition curves, and the present status of them for the effective tiling train service using results which were examined on the preceding study which was the development of track system innovation technology for speed-up of them. And we look forward to playing a decisive role as reference material for the decision of the linear fitness in order to operate effectively on the conventional lines for the commercial service of the tilting train, on the basis of checking out the sufficient condition concerned in the track alignment and the velocity which are required in the railway construction rules and the design criteria.

A new railway line of about 17km length was planned between Dongbaeksan and the neighboring town Dokye to improve the existing decrepit railway system. New line about 17km of the distance will almost be in circular alignment tunnels owing to the difference of elevation about 380m. Since the geology of the area is rather unusual compared to the normal in South Korea, extensive geological investigations have been carried out to prepare geological maps and profiles along the planned tunnel routes. The tunnel will almost be in sedimentary rock formations, such as limestone, sandstone, shale, coal etc and be near abandoned mines Various rock formations have the complicated, alter ed those rocks, but are well developed with laminated formations. Each rock formations have been classified using the Q-system and the cost of tunnel excavation, support has been estimated and compared for three alternative routes in the design stage. Based on these estimates, the final route of t he railway line was chosen.

Railroad is the major factor of vibration source in railway vehicles, and it must carefully maintained the original condition to secure the safety and good ride comfort of passenger. Measuring the condition of rail irregularities such as surface, alignment, gauge, twist and cant etc is required to maintain the good performance of railroad. Currently, the various rail irregularity measurement systems(EM120, ROGER1000K and the Total Rail Irregularity Measurement system of Korea High Speed Train) are operated in Korea to estimate the rail irregularity. It is hard to verify the correlation of one rail irregularity data of a measurement system with the other, because they have been adopted different rail irregularity estimation methods. The best method securing the reliability of the irregularity data is the direct confirmation on the ground where the measurement system had detected as a fault section, but it is impossible to apply all sections simultaneously due to limitation of time, labor, cost and equipments. There is a method to secure the reliability of the data by using acceleration values. Rail irregularities, the major factor of vibration in railway vehicle, are transmitted to the vehicle acceleration through masses, springs, dampers and joints as the system dynamic formation. In this study, Transition Function has been adopted by using the rail irregularity and the acceleration value regarding as input & output parameters respectively. It has been verified by comparing the analyzed results with real measured irregularity data from the Total Rail Irregularity Measurement system of Korea High Speed Train. Also various methods has been accomplished to verify the correlation between rail irregularities and acceleration values.

In order to use BIM as a tool for improving the productivity and quality of products in the construction industry, a BIM model must be created from the design stage first. Infrastructure structures such as bridges and tunnels are mainly created based on three-dimensional alignment in the generation of BIM models. Especially, generation of BIM models based on three-dimensional linearity has high task difficulty and algorithms for automating BIM modeling for railway infra structures have been suggested in previous studies. This study improved the BIM modeling automation algorithm of railway infrastructures and developed a system based on the algorithm so that it can be easily used by ordinary users. The system was built as an add-in system of Autodesk's Revit. As an improvement first, it is possible to arrange different libraries for each pattern, enabling various uses. In addition, it can be created models of several members with a single process and the system can automatically places structures that are added periodically, such as Rock Bolt and Fore Polling. Finally, 3D length information and volume for each pattern are automatically calculated for more accurate 3D-based volume calculation. This study contributes to increasing user accessibility by building a BIM modeling automation algorithm into a system. The system is expected to improve the efficiency of BIM modeling creation of linear-based infra structures, including railway infrastructure.

In this paper, the inductive power collector using electromagnetic induction for the PRT(Personal Rapid Transit) system is suggested and some ideas for power collector design to improve the power transfer performance are presented. The proposed the inductive power collector is used for the PRT system, which has a large air-gap and demands a large electrical power capability. But, low output power is generated due to a loosely coupled characteristic of the large air-gap. Therefore, double layer construction of secondary winding. which was divided in half to increase both output current and output voltage was suggested. Also, model of power collector and parallel winding structure are presented, in addition, the performance of inductive power collector to alignment condition between the primary power line and the inductive power transformer was verified by computer simulation of 2kW model.

The improvement of speed and ride comfort requires a very horizontally and vertically rigid and non-flexible alignment. It is inevitable to construct many bridges depending on the topography of landscapes and obliged to lay turnouts on the bridges. In that case, special considerations have to be taken into account, i.e. permissible stresses of turnout components and limitations of displacements of bridge and turnouts. In this studies, numerical analyses for turnout/bridge interaction are carried out using commercial program LUSAS. The target of analytical model is the turnout layed near Pyeongrae-Hopyeng station on Kyeongchun line. The lead rail, stock rails, and the bridge are modelled using beam elements. Fasteners and ballast resistances are modelled using bi-linear spring elements. The turnout behaviors are investigated by varying the parameters such as span length of bridge, spring coefficients, and thermal loads.

The riding comfort and the durability of train are effected by the rail irregularities such as track gauge, superelevation, alignment, longitudinal level, twist, cant and cross level. Inspection and estimation of irregularities are very important to maintain the rail condition. Generally, the EM120 has been utilized to measure the rail irregularities once a month in Korea. However, the EM120 can be operated at night time only, because the inspection speed of EM120 is much slower than the speed of high-speed trains. Also, the EM120 is too slow to inspect effectively for the whole commercial line. Therefore, we have mounted the track inspection system on the High-Speed Rolling Stock 350 eXperimental (HSR350X) and measured the rail irregularities to confirm the condition of a rail while running 300km/h. In this paper, the track inspection system mounted on HSR350X is mainly considered, and the measured results through test run are introduced.

The occurrence of unexpected horizontal offset in the instrument or target will result in accumulated horizontal deviation in segment alignment with traditional short-line match method. A geometry control method, the four-point method, is developed for precast segmental bridges to avoid the influences of unexpected horizontal offset. The concept of the four-point method is elucidated. Furthermore, the detailed instruments and instructions are introduced. Finally, the four-point method is validated through a practical engineering application. According to the survey data, after short-line match precast construction, the vertical deviations on both sides vary between -5 mm and 5 mm in almost all segments, and the horizontal deviations vary between -4 mm and 4 mm in all segments. Without on-site adjustment, the maximum vertical and horizontal closure gaps are 12.3 and 26.1 mm, respectively. The four-point method is suggested to alleviate the issues associated with relatively poor soil conditions in casting yard.
