일본 철도 총연(RTRI) 장비구축체계와 최신 연구방향 분석

초록

Well organized railway test equipment management systems are very important to create more reliable research results. Variety railway test equipments in RTRI(Railway Technical Research Institute) are investigated in this paper. The RTRI has 13 research departments. And each department has individual research laboratories. All the test equipments are divided by 10 different fields such as rolling stock, structural, track, prevention disaster, electric, environment, material science, magnetic levitation, human science and super computer. Test equipments must be controlled under the severe cold condition are installed far and independent place from The RTRI main office. Safety evaluation to prevent crossing accident, test method to evaluate chemical small in isolated railway space and evaluation method of passenger comfort under high-frequency vibration vehicle condition are new research works of the RTRI in 2009. These might be very useful information to railway research institute and railway operator.
