While HSR has gained substantial market share in China over the past decade, LCCs have achieved only limited market penetration. The potential growth of LCCs in China, however, is promising given the growing travel demand and government policy support.

Empirical Analysis for Impact of High-Speed Rail Construction on Interregional Dependency
applied sciences Article Empirical Analysis for Impact of High-Speed Rail Construction on Interregional Dependency Meina Zheng 1, Feng Liu 2 , Xiucheng Guo 1,* and Juchen Li 1 1 Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Urban ITS, School of Transportation, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China; [email protected] (M.Z.); [email protected] (J.L.) 2 School of Economics and Management, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 July 2020; Accepted: 27 July 2020; Published: 30 July 2020 Abstract: The opening of the high-speed rail (HSR) resulted in significant changes in the transportation network of Korea. The new HSR construction was expected to become a new engine of local economic growth. However, there was a controversy regarding whether the connection between regions intensifies the concentration of socio-economic activities in the metropolis (straw effect) or contributes to the balance of regional development (sprawl effect). More increasing attention had been devoted to studying the “straw effects” caused by the newly built HSR networks on interregional social-economic activities. Despite considerable research on the benefit achieved from HSR construction, little has focused on the negative externalities resulting from it. This paper examined the potential “straw effects” of two new HSR lines through constructing the indicator of interregional dependency that measured one city’s level of dependency on another one. In order to exclude the interference of lurking variables, five metropolitan cities were selected as case studies. The empirical results, based on a panel data model, revealed that the larger the economic scale of the target city, the lower the level of dependency on other cities, and there existed a “straw effect” on HSR development in terms of Seoul.

Analytical Study of the Vibration Attenuation with Respect to Trackbed Systems
IJR International Journal of Railway The Korean Society for Railway Vol. 7, No. 2 / June 2014, pp. 40-45 Analytical Study of the Vibration Attenuation with respect to Trackbed Systems WooYoung Jung†, SeongHyeok Lee, JinWook Lee, MinHo Kwon and BuSeog Ju Abstract The vibration-attenuation was quantitatively compared by 3-Dimensional finite element analysis using ABAQUS, with respect to the change of the type of trackbed systems. Most common trackbed materials, including ballast and concrete were applied to the track structure, and the train-speed was set as 300km/h as Korea Train eXpress (KTX). The result of current study revealed that the ballast showed the most effective material for the vibration attenuation. Keywords: KTX, Trackbed, Ballast, Concrete, Finite element 1.

Low Carbon Green Growth Roadmap for Asia and the Pacific CASE STUDY trains on the Honam line reduced the rail travel time from Seoul to Mokpo by 35 per cent, to just 2 hours and 58 minutes. The efficiency of the KTX has been a major boon for Korail (Korea Railroad) – by bringing in about a third Fast track to high-speed rail of the total rail passengers, the KTX brought in approximately two thirds of the Korail’s income.7 Republic of Korea’s Train eXpress Air travel: Demand and supply of air service between the cities served by the KTX declined substantially with its opening: between 27.8 and 78.7 per cent decline, depending on the origin and destination cities.8 Flights between Seoul and Daegu, for example, dropped from 2,903 flights serving 338,559 passengers in the eight Key points months before KTX opening to just 375 flights serving 27,854 passengers during the same period two years later9 – a remarkable 92 per cent reduction in passengers.

High-Speed Rail in Korea: Lessons for the Midwest
High-Speed Rail in Korea: Lessons for the Midwest The Republic of Korea (South Korea) launched Korea Train eXpress (KTX) in 2004, becom- ing the fifth nation to launch high-speed rail service. South Korea has developed its high-speed rail infrastructure in a phased, blended approach that could provide an implementation model for high-speed rail development in the Midwest. The nation’s manufacturers have made great strides in developing next generation high-speed rail technology and could be a significant resource for equipment and expertise as the Midwest progresses with its plans. Midwest High Speed Rail Association, December 7, 2013 1 Routes Used by KTX Trains Midwest High Speed Rail Association, December 7, 2013 2 The Market South Korea has population of 50 million—which is slightly larger than the combined popula- tions of Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Indiana, Missouri, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. And yet this na- tion occupies only about 38,000 square miles, slightly less than the area of Ohio. The city proper of Seoul, the nation’s capital, has a population of more than 10 million. Nearly 26 million people live in the entire metropolitan area. The nation’s Gross Domestic Product, at just over $1 trillion, ranks 15th among the world’s economies—approximately equal to the combined economies of Illinois and Ohio, the Midwest’s two largest states. South Korea’s primary transportation axis runs from Seoul to Busan, the country’s second largest city with a population of 3.4 million. A secondary population belt stretches along the western coast from Seoul to Mokpo.
