Dynamic behavior analysis of the high speed EMC(Electric Multiple Unit)

동력분산형 고속철도의 주행성능 해석기술 연구

The development of a new railway vehicle is under progress through the Next Generation High-Speed Rail Development Project in Korea. Its aim is to develope fundamental technology of the vehicle that can run over 400km/h. The new distributed traction bogie system, 'HEMU'(High-speed Electric Multiple Unit), will be used and is different from previously developed high speed railway vehicles. Previous vehicles adopted push-pull type system, which means one traction-car drives rest of the vehicle. Due to the difference, investigation on dynamic behavior and its safety evaluation are necessary, as a part of verification of the design specification. In this paper, current progresses of researches are presented. And the High-Speed Railway vehicle system is evaluated for a dynamic characteristic simulation. Proper models including air-suspension system, wheel-rail, bogie and car-body will be developed according to the vehicle simulation scenario. International safety standard will be applied for final verification of the system. This research can propose a better solution when test running shows a problem in the parts and elements. Finally, the vehicle that has excellent performance will be developed, promoting academic achievement and technical development.
