철도교량의 설계는 장기간에 걸쳐 수행되고 대규모의 부지를 대상으로 하기 때문에 다양한 환경적인 요인과 불확실성을 동반하게 된다. 이러한 연유로 초기 설계단계에서 충분히 검토하였더라도 설계변경이 종종 발생하고 있다. 특히 철도교량과 같은 대규모 시설 물의 설계변경은 많은 시간과 인력을 소모하며, 매번 모든 절차를 반복하는 것은 매우 비효율적이다. 본 연구에서는 딥러닝 알고리즘 중 전이학습을 통해 설계변경 전의 학습 결과를 활용하여 설계변경 후의 학습의 효율성을 향상시킬 수 있는 기법을 제안하였다. 분석 을 위해 기개발한 철도교량 딥러닝 기반 예측 시스템을 활용하여 시나리오들을 작성하고 데이터베이스를 구축하였다. 제안된 기법은 설계변경 전 기존 도메인에서 학습에 사용한 8,000개의 학습데이터 대비 새로운 도메인에서 1,000개의 데이터만을 학습하여 유사한 정확도를 나타내었고 보다 빠른 수렴속도를 가지는 것을 확인하였다.

In this study, a finite element analysis was used to analyze the stress state and vibration characteristics generated by continuous contact between wheels and rails when driving urban railway vehicles. The rails applied to the analysis were divided into straight and curved shapes, and three-dimensional modeling was performed to analyze the changes in structural characteristics of wheels and rails when driving on straight and curved rails. As a result of the analysis, the stress characteristics were up to 6.5 MPa on a straight rail and 9.81 MPa on a curved rail, and it is believed that this increase in stress will increase noise due to an increase in friction at the interface. The vibration characteristics of the wheels and rails showed similar behavior from the 3rd mode to the 9th mode of the rail to the intrinsic vibration characteristics from the 4th mode to the 6th mode of the wheel.

고속철도 교량은 열차 하중에 의한 공진으로 인한 동적응답 증폭의 위험이 존재하므로 설계기준에 따른 동적해석을 통한 주행안전 성 및 승차감 검토를 반드시 수행하여야 한다. 그러나 주행안전성 및 승차감 산정 절차는 열차의 종류별로 임계속도를 포함하여 설계 속도의 110km/h까지 10km/h 간격으로 동적해석을 일일이 수행해야 하므로 많은 시간과 경비가 소요된다. 이 연구에서는 딥러닝 알 고리즘을 활용하여 별도의 동적해석 없이 주행안전성 및 승차감을 사전에 예측할 수 있는 딥러닝 기반 예측 시스템 개발하였다. 제안 된 시스템은 철도교량의 열차별, 속도별 동적해석 결과를 학습한 후 학습 완료된 신경망을 기반으로 한 예측 시스템이며, 열차속도, 교량 특성 등의 입력파라미터에 따른 주행안전성 및 승차감 산정 결과를 사전에 예측할 수 있다. 제안된 시스템의 성능을 확인하기 위 하여 단경간 직선 단순보 교량을 대상으로 한 주행안전성 및 승차감 예측을 수행하였고, 주행안전성 및 승차감 산정을 위한 상판 연직 변위 및 상판 연직가속도를 높은 정확도로 예측할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

As awareness about the danger of radon in indoor air has increased, various studies have been conducted to reduce the source of radon. This study was performed to investigate the effect of radon mitigation technology in a railway tunnel. Radon barrier paint and radon shield membrane developed to reduce the concentration of radon in soil and construction material were applied in the tunnel. The tunnel was divided into three sections, A, B, and C, and radon barrier paint, a buffer section, and radon shield membrane were applied, respectively. After securing a sealing screen to the floor and division of each section, radon concentrations were measured and compared before and after each product was applied, and statistical significance was confirmed through the Wilcoxon signed rank test. Measurement was performed with the In-Situ Method and Closed Chamber Method. Radon concentration measured by the in-situ method changed in A section to 124.1 Bq/m2/day from 614.1 Bq/m2/day (79.8%, z=-2.521, p<0.05), in B section to 416.2 Bq/m2/day from 467.1 Bq/m2/day (10.9%, z=-0.980, p=0.327), and in C section to 47.3 Bq/m2/day from 645.6 Bq/m2/day (92.7%, z=-2.521, p<0.05). Radon concentration measured by the closed chamber method recorded a decrease in A section to 88.8 Bq/m3 from 364.2 Bq/m3 (75.6%, z=-2.201, p<0.05), in B section to 471.8 Bq/m3 from 583.3 Bq/m3 (19.1%, z=-0.700, p=0.484), and in C section to 115.9 Bq/m3 from 718.8 Bq/m3 (83.9%, z=-2.521, p<0.05). In addition to soil, it is very important to mitigate radon from building materials with a high contribution rate of radon in order to manage radon by source. Due to the spatial characteristics of railway tunnels, soil and wall concrete structures are exposed as they are, so it is considered that radon mitigation actions are required utilizing verified methods with high mitigation efficiency.

This study examined the effect of railway traffic controllers’ negative perception of organizational culture on their job demand and job satisfaction in relation to the moderating effect of self-efficacy. Results showed that the aggressive/defensive culture based on power and competition, had a positive (+) effect on job demand and job satisfaction. On the other hand, in the conditional process model in which self-efficacy affects the relationship between organizational culture, job demand, and job satisfaction, self-efficacy played a significant role in lowering the level of job demand, and it contributed to the increase of job satisfaction through a mediating effect. This results suggest the needs for lowering the level of job demand by changing the present aggressive/defensive organizational culture into the constructive one. And also, much consideration for maintaining the level of their self-efficacy should be spent.

Subway trains with air cleaners have been newly deployed in the Seoul Metro system. The purpose of this study was to determine differences regarding in-cabin particulate matter with respect to concentrations less than 10 um (PM10) and 2.5 um (PM2.5) through the operation of air cleaners in subway trains. One subway train newly installed with in-cabin air cleaners on Seoul Metro Line number 2 was chosen monitoring in 2020. In-cabin air cleaners were turned-on at both front and back areas while those in the middle area were turned-off while the train was running. In-cabin PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations were measured in each area using a real-time aerosol monitor. Average in-cabin PM10 concentrations were statistically significantly lower (by 15%) in areas with air cleaners turned-on (43.8±12.1 μg/m3) compared to those areas where the air cleaners were turned-off (51.4±15.0 μg/m3). Average incabin PM2.5 concentrations were significantly lower (by 14%) in areas with air cleaners turned on (33.7±12.2 μg/m3) compared to those areas where air cleaners were turned-off (39.2± 14.4 μg/m3). In-cabin PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations ratios were similar regardless of area with air cleaners turned-on or turned-off. The in-cabin PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations were not associated with commute time. Use of air cleaners in subway trains effected reductions in in-cabin PM10 and PM2.5 concentrations.

The prospect of the new railway construction has led to resistance from residents, partly based on noise and vibration issues. Particularly, as tracks often pass closely to residential dwellings, constructors are then required to take account of noise and vibration. So the prediction of noise and vibration for train is very important thing. The train noise and vibration nearby the elevated railway make one specific issue. For the elevated railway, this paper concerns the rolling noise by the wheel/rail and the structure-borne noise by the bridge. Based on the results, this paper proposes the source model of elevated structure-borne noise and the calculation model for elevated railway noise. Also prediction model is presented with rolling noise and elevated structure noise which are calculated by considering the power level of a source for one-third octave band, ground absorption and barrier deflection. A lot of empirical data is needed to predict the noise and vibration. And one of the best ways to control the wayside noise is to analyze the noise level.

The railroad facilities are intended for long-term operation as the initial acquisition costs necessary for infrastructure construction are high. Therefore, regular maintenance of railroad facilities is essential, and furthermore, system reliability through systematic performance evaluation is required. In this study, the signal control system of railroad electrical equipment was selected as the subject of research and the performance evaluation target facility selection study was conducted using AHP. The results of the study can contribute to the reliability of the signal control system as well as to the reliability of the railroad system, which is a higher system.

This study developed a flame-retardant fiber-reinforced composite material that satisfies the required regulations of railway vehicle interior parts for the purpose of reducing weight and simplifying the production process using SMC(sheet molding compounds) composite materials. It is essential to secure flame-retardant performance that minimizes flames and smoke for the safe evacuation of passengers in case of fire for interior parts of railway vehicles. In this study, the resin for SMC was developed by adding various flame retardant materials such as vinyl ester (halogen-based and phosphorus-based) and antimony trioxide, and chopped glass fibers were used as the reinforcing material. As a result of preparing specimens for phosphorus-based and halogen-based SMC materials, and comparing the flame retardant performance, the phosphorus-based SMC material had an oxygen index of 36.1, smoke density (1minute 30 seconds, 4minutes, 10minutes) of 1.7, 51.5, 195.1. It was measured with a toxicity index of 0.05 R and average heat for sustained burning of 4.5MJ/m, which satisfies all the flame retardant standards required for interior parts of railway vehicles, and it was found that most of the performance was better than that of halogen-based SMC.

철도소음은 도시지역의 철도건설과 유지에 가장 큰 장애 요소 중 하나이므로 보다 효과적으로 철도소음을 저감하기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 방음터널은 철도소음을 저감할 수 있는 가장 효과적인 방법 중 하나이나, 하절기 높은 내부 온도 증가로 인하여 궤도좌굴 또는 전력, 신호 등 선로 설비의 안정성을 저하시킬 우려가 있다. 이러한 온도 상승 문제는 통기 형 방음판을 이용하여 해결할 수 있으나, 방음터널 적용 시의 소음저감 성능에 대한 연구는 미흡한 상황이다. 이 논문에서는 수치해석을 통하여 통기형 슬릿방음판의 효과적인 방음터널 적용 방법에 대한 연구 결과를 제시하였다. 수치해석은 음향해석 프로그램인 Pachyderm Acoustics으로 모델링한 복선 방음터널을 이용하여 수행하였다. 철도소음은 기존 연구결과를 이용하여 모사하였으며, 슬릿방음판의 적용 위치가 다른 6가지 경우에 대하여 소음저감 효과 변화를 검토하였다. 음향해석 결과 20% 정도 의 슬릿방음판 적용 시에도 철도소음을 최소 5dB 감소할 수 있는 것으로 나타났다.

The general contractor business in South Korea settled in the railway construction during the Daehan Empire, but depending on the construction intention and circumstances of the railroad, relationship among employer-contractor-subcontractor and their roles under the system of the construction process had changed. At the time of laying the Gyeongin and Gyeongbu-rail, the Empire, which had no capital and technology, passed all the power and responsibility of the rail laying to the contractor, who was involved in most of the process. After this, the empire tried to lay Gyeongui-railroad without the help of other countries. Japan prepared for the Russo-Japanese War and decided to construct the railway rapidly, and completed the railway in parallel with direct management work and contract work. From that time on, the general contractor would only do the work. During the construction of railroad in Daehan empire, the general contract business system was established. The ambiguous process was sorted out and divided. At this time, subjects in charge of design and construction has been divided. The internal organization of the project owner and the contractor were organaized and specialized.

Since 1974, the urban subway has been used as a major form of public transportation in Seoul, Korea. The air quality in the subway environment depends on the introduction of air pollutants from roadway air and its generation is caused by subway operation in the tunnel. In the subway tunnel, PM10 concentration was monitored from March 8 to 15, 2018 and from March 26 to 28, 2018, and compared with concentrations that are routinely monitored at the subway concourse and the nearest roadside air quality monitoring station (RAQMS). Overall PM10 concentration at the concourse was similar to that of the RAQMS. However, PM10 concentration in the tunnel was significantly higher than those of the subway concourse and RAQMS, and showed distinct diurnal variation caused by train operation. The dominant peak concentrations were highly correlated with the number of train operations per hour. The minimum PM10 concentration was observed between 2 am to 5 am when the train was not operated. This was similar to that of the RAQMS. Although the diurnal variation of the PM10 concentration at the concourse is not significant, the overall trend is similar to that in the tunnel.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the distribution patterns of displacement and acceleration fields in a nonlinear soil ground based on the interaction of high-speed train, wheel, rail, and ground. For this purpose, a high-speed train in motion was modeled as the actual wheel, and the vertical contact of wheel and rail and the lateral contact, caused by meandering motion, were simulated; this simulation was based on the moving mass analysis. The soil ground part was given the nonlinear behavior of the upper ground part by using the modified the Drucker– Prager model, and the changes in displacement and acceleration were compared with the behavior of the elastic and inelastic grounds. Using this analysis, the displacement and acceleration ranges close to the actual ground behavior were addressed. Additionally, the von-Mises stress and equivalent plastic strain at the ground were examined. Further, the equivalent plastic and total volumetric strains at each failure surface were examined. The variation in stresses, such as vertical stress, transverse pressure, and longitudinal restraint pressure of wheel-rail contact, with the time history was investigated using moving mass. In the case of nonlinear ground model, the displacement difference obtained based on the train travel is not large when compared to that of the elastic ground model, while the acceleration is caused to generate a large decrease.
