For the high center of gravity vehicles the roll stiffness of their suspensions is arranged to be very high because such vehicles are in some danger of tipping over in cornering. In some cases, the effective roll stiffness is determined significantly by the compliance of the tires because of the very stiff anti-roll members incorporated in the suspension. In such cases, it is clear that the shock absorbers which may be effective in damping heave oscillations have little effect on roll oscillations. Therefore, wind gusts and roadway unevenness may cause large swaying oscillations. In this paper, to improve the stability for the high center of gravity vehicles a control scheme to augment the damping of the roll mode is proposed. As the feedback signals needed to provide damping of the roll motion, the front or rear steer angles or both are chosen because they are very related to roll motion. The scheme is effective from moderate to high speeds and stabilizes the roll mode without introducing disturbance moments from roadway unevenness as shock absorbers do. The validity on the proposed method is verified through the computer simulation.

During the process of oxide removal from work rolls in sheet metal manufacture, filamentary brushes frequently exhibit a bouncing or chatter behavior. The dynamics of this phenomenon is investigated through the development of expressions for the non-linear contact stiffness between the brush and the roll. With formulation of simple structural models, the time responses in the presence and absence of friction under random excitation are investigated. Possible solutions for the minimization or avoidance of this bouncing or chatter problem are also suggested.

항로표지는 해상에서 선박의 안전한 항행에 필수적인 요소이며, 현재는 LED를 광원으로 사용하는 등명기를 개발 및 사용하고 있다. LED 멀티롤 랜턴을 개발하여 항로표지의 표체조명, 교량표지, 방파제 표시등 등으로 개발하고하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이를 위하여 LED 멀티롤 랜턴의 내부 LED 배치에 따른 배광특성을 분석하였다. 본 논문에서 멀티롤 랜턴은 아크릴 환봉과 설치를 위한 금속재로 구성하였으며, 내부에 LED를 2열로 배치하였다. 최적의 설계를 위하여 아크릴 환봉을 투명한 것과 유백색인 것으로 구분하고 2열의 LED 모듈에 집광렌즈($45^{\circ}$, $60^{\circ}$, 미설치)에 따른 배광특성을 분석하였다. $60^{\circ}$ 집광렌즈를 사용한 경우의 시인효과가 우수하여 이를 바탕으로 LED 멀티롤 랜턴을 최종적으로 설계하였다. 투명 아크릴 환봉에 2열의 LED를 배치하고, $60^{\circ}$ 집광렌즈를 사용한 평판형 및 v형의 2종과 집광렌즈를 사용하지 않은 v형 1종으로 선정하고, 녹색과 홍색으로 제작하여 LED의 배열에 따른 배광특성을 본석하였다.

본 기사에서는 경사케이블의 자중의 현 방향성분을 고려하여 케이블의 동적 강성 행렬을 유도하였다. 이 동적 강성 행렬로부터 부재 자체의 동적특성을 자세히 파악할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라 다른 구조물과 결합되었을 경우 동해석에 소요되는 시간을 대폭적으로 줄일 수 있고 거동을 예측할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 유도된 동적 강성값을 다른 연구결과와 비교해본 결과, 실 구조물의 부재롤 사용되는 경사 케이블은 중량이 비교적 크기 때문에 현 방향 자중성분을 무시할 수 없으며 항상 복합 모드 현상을 보인다는 것을 알았다. 또한 이러한 복합 모드형성으로 인해 경사 케이블의 동적 강성값은 기존의 동적 강성값보다 좀 더 큰 값을 보인다.

A System for reducing vehicle body roll by active control is developed. The stabilizer bar with hydraulic rotary actuator produces anti-roll moment which suppresses roll tendency. This reduction of roll improves the driving safety as well as the ride comfort. Vehicle test data shows considerable reduction of roll angle during steady-state turning. Also improvement of ride comfort is achieved by making the actuator freely rotatable, i.e. by connecting all chambers of actuator in normal driving conditions. A control algorithm using steering wheel angle and vehicle speed signal as input valve is applied. It is compared with signal of the G-sensor.

Door impact beam plays a key role in minimizing the occupant injury within the side impacted vehicle through preventing intrusion of the impacting vehicle. Steel pipe type door impact beam has been widely adopted since it has simple structure and the overall strength is easily determined according to the pipe size. The brackets welded at pipe ends connect the door impact beam and the door panels by spot welds. In this study, first, the effect of pipe thickness, bracket thickness and door mounting stiffness was respectively analyzed. Next, application of the tailor rolled pipe was examined and several alterations of the bracket mounting method were considered. Application of tailor rolled pipes with superior bracket mounting method showed remarkable strength enhancement and weight reduction possibility in comparison with the current door impact beam.

Finite element modelling and analysis were conducted for the roll-type steel mats which were placed on loose sand and subjected to a standard truck wheel load in this study. The roll-type steel mats mean that the steel mats can be folded as a circle shape for the carrying to fields in cold regions where workability is limited and are developed for a rapid rehabilitation method for roadway across soft ground which is caused by thawing during the summer season in cold regions. The model is composed of link elements to simulate nonlinear behavior of connections between steel mats, thick shell elements to have flexural stiffness of the steel mats, and springs to simulate characteristics of foundation soils. The structural behaviors of the shell, link elements, and springs were verified at each modelling step through experiment and analysis. Beam and shell analysis without the link elements were conducted and compared to results obtained from the model presented in this study. Significant vertical displacement is shown in the shell model with hinge connections. Therefore, the results demonstrate that the analysis model for the roll-type steel mats on loose sand needs further detail parametric studies.

The door impact beam of the side-impacted vehicle plays a key role in securing occupant safety by preventing intrusion from the impacting vehicle. Despite the low production cost, the press door impact beam has been adopted sparingly because of the strength inferiority. In this study, the design technologies of the press beam aimed at improving bending strength were investigated. First, the effect of the section shape and size was examined. Next, thickness and material strength were increased. Also, the TRB beam application was simulated by varying combined thickness. Some TRB beams with reduced weight exhibited bending strength over the strength of the pipe beam. Then, the beam with a closed center section also showed remarkably enhanced maximum bending strength.
