An effective approach to distributing budget to railway line facility improvement is to use investment priorities of railway line segments based on their deterioration. In this paper we present an evaluation method of railway line segment deterioration which can be used to distribute limited budget. Railway line facilities include rail track, railroad switch, subgrade, bridge, tunnel. These facilities and line shape can affect line segment deterioration. Deterioration evaluation method we present is a weighted sum of each component deterioration scores. The component weight can be obtained from experts using analytic hierarchy process.

Railway line segment deterioration can be affected by rail tracks, subgrades, bridges, tunnels, and line shapes. In this paper, an evaluation method is presented for the railway line segment deterioration using the analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and data envelopment analysis (DEA). The importance weights can be assessed systematically for component facilities from numerous experts using AHP. The importance weights provided by experts may differ according to each expert; however, the DEA enables the evaluation of railway line segment deterioration that reflects the variety of expert opinions using these importance weights.

This paper presents the use of the Petri Net Method for modeling railway tracks. The Petri Net is defined as having the characteristics of a parallel, asynchronous, distributed, inconclusive, statistical, etc. information handling system and is a graphical mathematical modeling tool to study the specifics of active movement. It's proven use can be seen at the Korean type Light Rail testing tracks where they modelled the Petri Net method using the train track encasing the segment, track, turnout, and platform as a singular factor and even though two trains either travelling in the same or opposite directions on a single test track equipped with a sidetrack can travel with the guarantee that the two will not collide.

The down town passage segment which follows in the straight line which follows recently in high speed of the railway and rail construction is increasing. Also according to quality of life improvement of the citizens whom follows in national income increase the resident demand only becomes larger day by day about a environmental creation which is comfortable and house environmental etc. Demand of the citizens is not the problem of today yesterday about like this railway mean of transportation and with the fact that continuously will increase in future. This study is to predict and reduce railway noise from the conventional PSC-beam bridges which passes through urban areas under the government strateges of speed and weight increases of railway. The purpose of this study is to recommend a proper noise prediction method for designing pleasant roadside environments. The railway design including existing line reconstructions should minimize curved alignment to increase train speed to 180~200km/hr under the government's long-term planing such as the 4th Comprehensive National Development Plan (2000~2020), National Intermodal Transportation Plan (2000~2019) and National Railroad Network Establishment Plan (2006~2015), Since the PSC-beam bridges are mainly used for bridge structures urban areas, noise measurements were performed and analyzed to recommend the noise prediction methods for each type and speed of train respectively.

This study proposes a policy for urban railway travel demand management system in order to decrease the load factor of the Seoul metro Circle line, particularly for the segment between Sadang and Samsung stations, through analyzing the transit smart card data. We propose mixed train operations of the existing Circle line and a line that goes toward Samsung station in order to transport passengers that have two distinct groups: those with the destination of Samsung station and those with destinations after Samsung station. The introduction of a mixed train operation that encourages passengers passing through Samsung station to take a Circle line train will decrease the congested load factor by 11.3% during the morning peak hours using the mixed train operation of the Circle and Samsung lines. This policy could be an effective method to decrease the load factor and improve the comfort of rail passengers without extra investment in the railway facilities.

The ascent and descent market screen door (PSD-Platform Screen Door) between the electromotive car which is in the process of operating from the subway ascent and descent market and the passenger it is an immediacy and crisis as the system which it intercepts currently the inside and outside of the country of course signal system automatic operation signal system (ATO) establishment is operated from the segment. Manual operation signal system (the ATS and the ATC) almost it is a condition which is wholly lacking from the segment. This year from second half of the year 2 line manual operation signal system (ATS). It established the shutting tightly elder brother and the railing elder brother in PSD system in segment 12 reverses and the death accident due to the passenger hurt accident which occurs from the subway. It prevented an energy curtailment in the same time when it raises air cooling efficiency, It gathered it restricted the underground space which is comfortable in the use citizen and and and service it did interface the electromotive car and PSD entrance and exit literature course from the manual operation segment to sleep technically optimizationt. It researched a minute dust diffusion.

This study analyzed the quality of a commuter rail service of Incheon line 1 with respect to two service measures such as occupancy (crowdedness) and punctuality based on transit smart card data collected in 2009. In order to analyze the metro services by individual fleet, we aggregated the personal level card data into the fleet operated in each planned schedule. The results show a low level of service for both crowdedness and punctuality during peak hours at the line segment from 'Gyeyang' to 'International business district'. Further, a close relationship between vehicle occupancy and punctuality is found, which illustrates high passenger demand causes successive metro delay.

Over-urbanization has contributed to the increase in traffic problems. This makes the need for effective road planning and design more important than ever. I have been able to learn how to build a new road, and how to use it. However, in spite of the importance of good road planning, there are no systematic standards or methods for calculating traffic volume on railroad routes. Therefore, in this study, to strengthen the competitiveness of railroads, the concept of line capacity is introduced to railroads, and a clear standard and method for calculating railroad line capacity are presented. Based on the results, the line capacity of main railway lines for domestic railways was calculated. By applying the method of calculating the line capacity presented in this study, the capacity of existing railway lines and newly expanded routes can be calculated. It is expected that our findings will be able to provide systematic standards that can be applied to yield a more effective investment and design planning stage; the findings will also help improve the efficiency of railroad operation.

In the new Seoul-Busan high speed railroad construction specially city center passage roadbed establishment is recommended the staibility for the existing subway tunnel segments of Busan subway line No. 1 and No.2. regarding the appearance condition, a quality condition and the durability of the objective facility site exact inspection, and it evaluates the numerical analysis which uses MIDAS GTS it leads and there is the objective of the place where the stability of the objective facility and this tunnel it investigates. To immediacy of the on-the-spot inspection result whole facility it is a condition where the reinforcement which is simple not to be hindrance is necessary, 2nd Line case it is a condition which transfer is good but the general defect and the damage which occur from the tunnel of NATM type were confirmed part. While roadbed establishment constructing that the continuous maintenance is necessary, it is judged. The result of 1st, 2nd Line maximum sinkage, unequal sinkage and the lining stress of numerical analysis are within permission and the damage degree is appearing with the fact that the degree it will can disregard it is slight. But it enforces necessary Pre-grouting in order to minimize an actual tunnel face conduct and when the tunnel is excavated it is judged with the fact that necessary to minimize the outflow possibility.
