In order to reveal the independent relationship between track irregularity and wind loads, the stochastic characteristics of train-bridge coupling systems subjected to wind loads were investigated by the multi-sample calculation. The vehicle was selected as 23 degrees of freedom dynamical model, and the bridge was described by three-dimensional finite element model. It was assumed that the wind loads were random processes with strong spatial correlation, while the track irregularities were stationary random ones. As a case study, a high-speed train running on a cable-stayed bridge subjected to wind loads was studied. The effect of rail irregularities was deemed to be independent of the effect of wind excitations on the coupling system in the same wind circumstance for the same project, leading to the conclusion that the effect of wind loads and moving vehicle could be calculated separately. The variance results of the stochastic responses of vehicle-bridge coupling system under the action of wind loads and rail irregularities together were equivalent to the sum of the variance of the responses induced by each excitation. Therefore, when one of the input excitations is different, only the effect of changed loads needs to be assessed. Moreover, the new calculated results were combined with the effect of unchanged loads to present the stochastic response of coupling system subjected to the different excitations, reducing the cost of computations. The stochastic characteristics, the CFD (cumulative distribution function) of the coupling system with different wind velocities, vehicle speed, and vehicle marshalling were studied likewise.

차량의 승차감은 차체의 성능 뿐만 아니라 궤도의 특성에 의해서도 영향을 받게 되므로, 궤도선형 및 궤도틀림의 관리를 위하여 차량의 승차감 평가결과를 이용한다. 본 논문에서는 차체의 진동가속도 계측데이터를 이용하여 궤도유지보수와 상관성이 있는 Continuous comfort 승차감 평가방법을 통해 국내 경부고속철도노선 및 유럽 고속철도노선에 대한 승차감 평가를 수행하였다. 승차감 평가결과를 속도대역 별로 구분하여 국내외 고속철도노선의 승차감 분포현황을 정량적으로 분석하고 승차감 수준을 비교하였다. 국내의 경부고속철도의 승차감이 유럽 고속철도노선에 비하여 다소 우수한 것으로 평가되었으며, 이를 통해 국내 고속선의 궤도선형 및 궤도틀림의 관리가 적절하게 수행되고 있음을 유추할 수 있었다.

Hanging sleepers, which are not fully supported between the sleepers and the ballast, could cause large dynamic forces especially on high speed ballasted track. The dynamic forces resulting from insufficient supporting forces may badly affect the running stability and safety of train. These also accelerate track irregularities and deteriorate track components rapidly. Consequently, the hanging sleepers will lead to sharp increases in track maintenance cost. This paper introduces a rapid and easy method to detect hanging sleepers with portable light falling weight deflectometer (LFWD) and summarizes the results of experiments performed at the high speed ballasted track.

When vehicle travelling along the track which has irregularity such as vortical profile, dynamic forces arise at the Wheel/Rail contact patch by wheel/rail interaction. In particular short wavelength irregularities on dipped joint and small stiffness of connecting rail bring about intense wheel/rail dynamic effects at higher speed. In the paper, a new model for dipped joint rail is developed to study dynamic behavior of track. (omitted)

The gravel ballast in the ballasted track has the function to not only transfer/scatter the train loads to subgrade through rail and sleeper but also elastically support the train loads. Because track irregularities results inevitably from the repetitive train loads, the track maintenance should be undertaken for correcting them. By analyzing the track maintenance history in the Gyeongbu high speed railway, this study tries to choose the local two spots in the railway in which the repair frequencies are maximum and relative small; to analyze their dynamic characteristics as well as grade; and to compare them with maintenance history. As the dynamic characteristics of track, the vertical displacement and vibrating acceleration of sleeper as well as acceleration of ballast are measured/analyzed. Furthermore, by collecting soil and gravel on the reinforced roadbed and undertaking ballast screening test, the size distributions are compared with grade distribution standards of high speed railway.

When vehicle travelling along the track which has irregularity such as vertical profile, dynamic forces arise at the Wheel/Rail contact patch by wheel/rail interaction. In particular short wavelength irregularities on dipped joint and small stiffness of connecting rail bring about intense wheel/rail dynamic effects at higher speed. In the paper, a new model for dipped joint rail is developed to study dynamic behavior of track. A cusp behavior on dipped joint was defined by its amplitude and decay factor, which was presented by FRA track classes. The result of case study are presented, which show wheel rail contact force in each track classes, train operation speed and bending flexible rigidity ratio of fishplates which are connecting the rail.

As a new type of vibration reduction, the ladder track system has been successfully used in engineering. In this paper, a numerical model of the train-track-viaduct system is established to study the dynamic responses of an elevated bridge with ladder track. The system is composed of a vehicle submodel, a track submodel and a bridge submodel, with the measured track irregularities as the system self-excitation. The whole time histories of a train running through an elevated bridge with $3{\times}27m$ continuous PC box girders are simulated. The dynamic responses of the bridge such as deflections, lateral and vertical accelerations, and the vehicle responses such as derailment factors, offload factors and car-body accelerations are calculated. The calculated results are partly validated through the comparison with the experimental data. Compared to the common slab track, adapting the ladder sleeper can effectively reduce the accelerations of the bridge girder, and also reduce the car-body accelerations and offload factors of the train vehicle.

본 연구에서는 도시철도 콘크리트궤도 장대레일에 대한 실내피로시험을 수행하였고, 장대레일 잔존수명을 표현한 파괴확률 50% S-N 선도는 적은 실험데이터에 대한 가중치 확률 해석기법을 사용하여 도출하였다. 여기서 피로시험에 사용된 레일들이 누적통과톤수가 서로 다르기 때문에 누적통과톤수를 평균하여 반복횟수를 수정하였다. 또한, 레일표면요철 및 열차속도를 고려한 레일 저부 휨응력은 기존 연구결과 도출된 레일휨응력 예측식을 사용하여 콘크리트궤도 장대레일의 잔존수명을 평가하였다. 레일 피로수명 평가결과, 레일 피로수명이 기준치에 비해 약 2억톤이상 높았다. 또한, 자갈궤도에 비해 콘크리트궤도 레일의 피로수명이 약 3억톤이상 높은 것으로 분석되었다. 따라서 도시철도에서 레일교체기준을 자갈궤도와 콘크리트궤도로 구분할 필요가 있으며, 레일연마를 통한 레일관리가 이루어진다면 기준치가 아닌 목표치로 관리할 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다.

본 연구는 궤도 틀림을 관리하기 위한 궤도 품질 지수(TQI)의 진전율 추정에 관한 것이다. 이와 관련한 기존 연구 대부분은 시간에 따른 TQI 값의 선형 회귀분석을 통해 구해진 기울기를 기준으로 상수 진전율을 제시하는 데 그치고 있다. 본 연구는 과거 데이터 혹은 전문가의 식견으로부터 도출되는 파라미터의 사전 분포를 효과적으로 반영할 수 있으며, 파라미터값의 확률 분포를 유도해 낼 수 있는 베이지안 방법론에 기초한 진전율 추정 모델을 제안하고, 기존의 전통적인 회귀분석 모형과의 비교 연구를 통해, 베이지안 방법론의 활용 가능성을 검토해 보았다.
