Abstract

It is connected with various gauges existing in Euro-Asian continents. Such differences impedes the operation seriously as on the contact of railway tracks of different gauge the cargo must be either transshipped or the running assemblies of rail vehicles must be exchanged. Those operations are costly, time-consuming and require extended infrastructure together with very expensive storage and transshipment facilities at border-crossing point. Moreover, those operations extend transportation time considerably. Therefore, effectiveness of railway transportation systems significantly depends on track gauge change 1435/1520mm, which connects with complicated handling-shifting operations. The paper concerns assessment of effectiveness in strategical rail systems with gauge changing. The paper presents short description of transport system with gauge changing and initial assessment of shifting technologies. Method of system assessment comparison based on Life Cycle Cost model is described here as well.

유라시아 대륙에는 다양한 궤간이 존재하고 있다. 이런 차이는 서로 다른 궤간의 접속점에서 화물을 환적하거나 혹은 차량 운행 조립체를 교환하여야 하는 등 철도수송 시스템의 운영에 많은 영향을 준다. 그러므로, 철도 수송 시스템의 효율성은 복잡한 하역 및 교환 기술에 관련된 궤간 극복 방법에 매우 의존한다. 본 논문은 대륙철도 연결을 통한 국제 화물 수송에서 발생되는 1520/1435mm 궤간차이를 극복하기 위한 철도 수송 시스템의 효율성 평가를 목적으로 하였다. 먼저 궤간 변경지점에서 현재 수행되고 있는 수송 시스템을 간략하게 설명하고, 교환 기술에 대한 사전 분석을 수행하였다. LCC 모델에 기초하여 리프트에 의한 대차교환 방식과 자동궤간가변 시스템의 효율성을 비교평가 하였다.
