In this paper, the combined system equation of motion, which can analyze the dynamic interaction between pantograph and catenary system, is derived by adopting absolute nodal coordinates and rigid body coordinates. The analysis results are compared with real experiment data from test running of Korean high-speed train (HSR 350x). In addition, a computation method for the dynamic stress of contact wire is presented using the derived system equation of motion. This method might be good example and significant in that the structural and multibody dynamics model can be unified into one numerical system.

A de-wiring trolley wire usually makes the electrical system complex and may have an adverse effect on the electrical system inside the train. It is important to analyze the effect on trains in de-wiring trolley wire. we accomplished an equivalent model of the electric train system. We used PSCAD/EMTDC, an electromagnetic transient program. The result of this study can be used as a facility design to use a power conversion system filter and needs to prove through actual field data in the main circuit of an electric train for a precise analysis about effect of de-wiring.

The analysis of mud pumping which causes track irregularities during softening of present roadbed is needed in order to prepare countermeasure that is efficient and reasonable against the softening of railway roadbed. In this study, model tests were performed in order to evaluate property of the railway softening under the train loading, considering the wheel load and the impact coefficient due to the train passing velocity. The existence of the mud pumping, settlements of roadbed and vertical earth pressure were measured under the train loading.

From the past, maglev technique study(mainly for transportation like maglev) has been done. In the domestic, urban maglev train is practical steps now. High-speed maglev train(550km/h) development comes complete, followed by Japan. This year, system of High-speed maglev train(550km/h) is expected to be verified. This paper simulate FEM model for EMS(Electro-Magnetic Suspension) maglev system and verify tendency of reducing disturbance.

When a wheel profile of a train-tram is designed, both train and tram tracks should be considered. This study designed a wheel profile that enables high-speed driving(200km/h) on the train track and low speed driving on the tram track with multiple sharp curves. The study used the approximation optimization method to reduce cost and time, used the sequential quadratic programming method as the optimized algorithm, and the central composite design and response surface method as an approximate model. The optimized wheel shape based on this approximation optimization method reduced wear of the initial wheel showed a better performance in terms of derailment and lateral force.

In this paper, the vibrational characteristics of a foot mount type gearbox for epicyclic gear train have been studied. The modal parameters and mode shapes of a gearbox have been computed using AN SYS code. Modal testing was carried out to verify the FEM analysis model. It has been shown that the analysis results are in good agreements with the experimental results. Harmonic analysis has been executed to verify the effect of thickness variance of gearbox housing on the modal response. Analyzing the calculated results, some guides for optimal vibration response has been deduced.

Currently, many countries in the world operate double deck trains as one of the efficient, reliable and comfortable mass transportation systems. However, double deck trains have relatively big cross sectional areas that cause interface problems between the vehicles and infrastructures, and do not have enough spaces for installing electric equipments. Therefore, prior to the operation of double deck trains on the existing lines in Korea, careful investigations should be performed. In this study, we have designed the concept model of a double deck EMU train system and analyzed related problems.

The design of current collection system of high speed train requires the fundamental understandings for the dynamic characteristics of catenary system and pantograph. The stiffness of catenary system of high speed train has the varying characteristics for the change of contact point with pantograph, since the supporting pole and hanger make the different boundary conditions for the up-down stiffness of a trolley wire. The variation of stiffness results in Mathiue equation, which characterizes the stability of the system. However, the two-term variation of the stiffness due to span length and hanger distance cannot be solved analytically. In this paper, the stiffness variations are calculated and the physical reasoning of linear model and one term Mathieu equation are reviewed. And the numerical analysis for the two-term variation of the stiffness is done for the several design parameters of pantograph.

A novel nondestructive testing (NDT) system, which is able to detect a crack with high speed and high spatial resolution, is urgently required for inspecting small cracks on express train wheels. This paper proposes a high speed scan type magnetic camera, which uses the multiple amplifying circuits and the crack indicating pulse output system. The linearly integrated Hall sensors are arrayed in parallel, and the Hall voltages from each sensor in the scanning direction are obtained and amplified. High-speed NDT can be achieved by using the exclusive analog-digital converter and micro-processor because the ${\partial}\;V_H/\;{\partial}$ x value, which provides the most important crack information, can be obtained by buffering and calculating. The effectiveness of the novel method was verified by examine using cracks on the wheel specimen model.
