The influence of tire belt angle on the Plysteer Residual Aligning Torque(PRAT) and the cornering stiffness by the FEM has been studied. The PRAT is a performance factor of the tire about vehicle pull, and the cornering stiffness has relation to vehicle steering response of outdoor test. To validate FE model for analysis, simulation data for both the static stiffness(vertical, lateral) and the PRAT have been compared with the experimental data. In addition to the characteristics of the PRAT and the cornering stiffness due to the tire belt angle, rolling and cornering contact characteristics have been studied. The tendency of the PRAT and the cornering stiffness due to the belt angle can be used as a guide line for the tire design in relation to vehicle pull and vehicle steering response.

It is generally known that the PRAT(Plysteer Residual Aligning Torque) is one of indicating a performance factors of a tire for assessing the vehicle pull, also tire pattern shape, which means lateral groove angle, is very important tire design factor in relation to the PRAT. Lateral grooves of tire pattern are widely divided into center and shoulder parts. So, this paper has studied the correlation between the PRAT and their lateral groove angles using FEM. Especially, the steady state rolling analysis among tire rolling analysis methods has been used for the PRAT performance study. Firstly, analysis result data have been compared with the experimental data to validate FE analysis for PRAT. Next, the PRAT due to the lateral groove angle about PCR(Passenger Car Radial) tire and SUV tire has been analyzed. The tendency of the PRAT due to the lateral groove angles can be used as a guide line for the tire design in relation to vehicle pull.

본 논문에서는 2개의 인-휠 브러쉬리스 모터로 구동하는 차량의 실시간 위치 추종 제어방법을 제안한다. 2개의 모터를 사용하여 구동되는 차량의 경우 방향 및 이동이 각 모터의 제어를 기반으로 결정된다. 하지만 컨트롤러에 의해 지령된 위치까지 모터의 제어가 정확하게 된다 하더라도 차량의 실제 위치는 바퀴와 바닥면사이의 슬립이나 외부 요인에 의해 오차가 발생하게 된다. 따라서 이렇게 발생하는 오차를 보상하기 위해 차량의 실시간 각도 추정이 가능한 IMU(Inertia Measrement Unit) 센서를 기반으로 진행 각도를 보정하며 주행 중 발생하는 위치오차를 보상하기 위해 모터의 홀센서로부터 계산되는 위치와 IMU 센서의 데이터를 조합하여 실시간 위치 추종 제어방법을 제안한다.

Tire is one of the most important to drive cars. There is high possibility to occur slip phenomenon and to increase braking distance depending on tire wear. Therefore, you should be check tire wear and replace tires periodically. In the past, most people manually check the wear level and judged whether or not to replace the tire. But, since the standard is different for each person, the replacement cycle becomes unclear. Since a clear replacement cycle is established, it is expected that the accident rate of a vehicle caused by a tire will be reduced. Therefore, i propose detection method for a tire wear using a motor rotation angle.

A urea-SCR system suffers from some issues associated with the ammonia slip phenomenon, which mainly occurs because of the shortage of evaporation and thermolysis time, and this makes it difficult to achieve an uniform distribution of injected urea. A numerical study was therefore performed by changing such various parameters as installed injector angle and application and angle of mixer to enhance evaporation and the mixing of urea water solution with exhaust gases. As a result, various parameters were found to affect the evaporation and mixing characteristics between exhaust gas and urea water solution, and their optimization is required. Finally, useful guidelines were suggested to achieve the optimum design of a urea-SCR injection system for improving the DeNOx performance and reducing ammonia slip.

본 논문에서는 자이로스코프를 이용한 자율이동로봇의 주행기록계에 대한 오차 보상을 제안한다. 자율이동로봇의 주행 시 주행기록계는 슬립과 마찰 등으로 인해 많은 방향각에 대해 오차를 포함하고 있어서 주행기록계에만 의존하여 주행하기 힘들다. 주행기록계가 슬립과, 회전에 대한 단점을 보안하기 위해 방향각에 대해 자이로스코프를 사용하여, 자이로스코프로부터 얻은 데이터와 주행기록계의 데이터를 융합하여 주행기록계의 오차누적에 의한 이동로봇의 방향각에 대한 비정확성을 보상하기 위한 알고리듬을 제안한다. 대부분의 주행 시 주행기록계의 값을 신뢰하고 자율이동로봇의 순간적인 각도변화에 대해서는 자이로스코프를 이용하였다. 이동로봇의 직진 주행 실험 결과 주행기록계만을 사용하여 주행했을 때는 방향각 오차가 크게 발생하였다. 그러나 주행기록계와 자이로스코프의 데이터를 융합하여 적용한 시스템의 성능이 주행기록계만 이용한 경우에 비해 보다 정확함을 실험을 통해 확인하였다. 이동로봇의 안정성 있는 경로 추종을 통해 이동로봇의 보다 넓은 영역에서의 작업이 기대된다.

The paper has analyzed the influence of tire design variable on the tire Force and Moment (F&M) characteristics, especially by the belt angle, the Plysteer Residual Aligning Torque (PRAT) which is considered as one of the causing factors for the vehicle pull. To validate the tire FE model, the tire stiffness and the PRAT which can be derived from the simulation data have been compared with the experimental data of test machine. In addition to PRAT characteristic, the tire stiffness and cornering characteristics due to the belt angle have been investigated. The effects of drum's curvature on the PRAT have been also investigated using the tire FE model and the usefulness of the current drum type F&M test machine can be confirmed.

This paper propose a study on the Feed Characteristics of Twist Friction Driver. We are using Twist Friction Driving mechanism system. The system consists of Twist Friction Driver elements such as driving shaft, driven roller, Spring for pre-load, Air bearing guide, Servo motor, and measuring devices such as Encoder of Servo motor, Laser interferometer, LVDT . The Twist Friction driver is mechanically simple and very quiet at high speed, and has low pre-load. So The Twist Friction driver can materialize an ultra precision feed-resolution. The feed characteristics of the driver is determined by slip and angular error, backlash.

This study is to propose and develop an integrated dynamics control system to improve and enhance the lateral stability and handling performance. To achieve this target, we integrate an AFS and a 4WS systems with a fuzzy logic controller. The IDCS determines active additional steering angle of front wheel and controls the steering angle of rear wheel. The results show that the IDCS improves the lateral stability and controllability on dry asphalt and snow paved road when double lane change and step steering inputs are applied. Yaw rate of the IDCS vehicle tracks reference yaw rate very well and body slip angle is reduced about by 50%. Response time of the IDCS vehicle is also decreased.

We investigated the stability of the DLC film coated on 304 stainless steel substrate by Radio frequency assisted chemical vapor deposition method. Fracture and spallation behaviour of the coating was observed during micro-tensile test of the fil $m_strate composite. As the tensile deformation progressed, the cracks of the film were observed in the perpendicular direction to the tensile axis. Further deformation resulted in the plastic deformation with $45^{\circ}$ slip bands on the substrate surface. Spallation of the film occurred with the plastic deformation, which was initiated at the cracks of the film and was aligned along the slip directions. We found that both the cracking and the spallation behaviors are strongly dependent on the pre-treatment condition, such as Ar plasma pre-treatment. The spallation of the film was considerably suppressed in an optimized condition of the substrate cleaning by Ar glow discharge. We observed the improved stability with increasing duration of Ar plasma pre-treatment.nt.
