In the curving detection method by using an accelerometer, the ride comfort in the first car is worse than one in the others due to spend the time to calculate the tilting command and drive the tilting mechanism after entering in the curve. In order to enhance the ride comfort in the first car, the preditive curve detection method which predicts the distance from a train to the starting point of curve by using the GPS, Tachometer, Ground balise and position DB for track. In this study, we predicted and evaluated the ride comfort for predictive curve detection method in transient curves according to the shape and dimension of transient curve and the various driving speed. Also, we predicted the improvement of the ride comfort for predictive curve detection method by comparing with the result of the ride comfort for predictive curve detection method and for curve detection method using an accelerometer in the short transient curve.

The ride quality of agricultural tractor seats is evaluated based on the vibration of the human bodies. Tractor ride vibration levels have been measured at the person-seat interface along 7 axes(3 translational axes at the feet, 3 translational axes on a seat surface and 1 axis at the seat back), under different operating conditions. Since one of the most important parameters for ride comfort is the level and duration of the root mean square acceleration experienced, the ride values, such as the seat effective amplitude transmissibility, the component ride value, and the overall ride value based on acceleration root mean square are evaluated for a conventional tractor using frequency weighting functions and axis multiplying factors. The ride indices are also studied considering to the variation of vehicle speed and road profile.

This paper presents the performance of a full vehicle MR suspension system at different tire pressure. The pressure of tire is related to tire stiffness, which is significantly affects the performance of suspension system. Therefore, in this research, the effectiveness of tire pressure on full vehicle MR suspension is evaluated. As a first step, the characteristic of tire with respect to pressure is experimentally tested and modeled. After that, the governing equation of MR damper and full vehicle MR suspension system are derived. The skyhook controller is implemented and the vibration control performance of full vehicle MR suspension is evaluated via simulation with respect to the tire pressure.

The ‘AEIPR’(Accelerometer Established Inertial Profiling Reference) method has been applied to measure the road profile. The dynamic road profiling method using AEIPR has the advantages of cost effectiveness, measuring speed and relatively high reliability. However, it is required to improve the double integration algorithm to get the measurement results with the accuracy of hither level. In the first part of this paper, the effective double integration algorithm is suggested and the ‘Road Profiler’ software is developed on the basis of the algorithm. Road profiling tests are performed using the developed ‘Road Profiler’ system on the specially designed tracks for the durability tests and the various types of pubic roads. Test results are shown and evaluated by the international road evaluation indicies and classification.

For the purpose of speed-up of conventional lines with many curves, the introduction and operation of tilting train is under process. Those are Joong-Ang, Jang-Hang and Ho-nam lines etc. Tilting trains can run a curve section faster than existing trains without a significant violation of passenger's comfort and enable to reduce operating time in the lines with many curves. In this study, the trains speeds are evaluated, based on the alignment of conventional line, criteria for passenger's comfort and investigated field conditions of the sections where the curves exist. Decision on whether the alignment(transition line) needs to be modified or not is also made. Relative efficiency on curve sections of tilting train to existing trains is approximately $50\%$ in average.

The Purpose of this paper is to characteristics and analysis of ride comfort by using HRV. Although the riding comfort of trains has been managed by setting allowable accelerations of 3-axis motion in cabins, it is impossible for this approach to express the psychophysical relationship between various vibrational factors and riding comfort. in order to propose a function to evaluate the riding comfort of train on conventional railroad, an experiment was performed with the Korea Tilting Tran eXpress(TTX). As a result, by referring to some international standards on the method of evaluating ride comfort, a modified method was proposed to evaluate the lateral vibration in addition to the roll motion on carve transitions.

최근 자동차 분야에 있어서 많은 변화가 급속히 일어나고 있다. 70년대의 오일쇼크 이후 전륜구동 승용차의 보급이 급속히 확산되고, 연비 경쟁이 늘어났으며 소형. 경량화의 요구는 점차 증가되고 있다. 이후 80년대 들어 전자기술이 접목되면서 혁명적이라 할 수 있는 변화가 일어났고, 그 변화의 추세는 급속히 가속화되고 있다. 자동차의 전자화는 초기에는 공해 및 연비 개선 차원에서 시작됐으나, 이후 안전성 및 주행성능 향상을 겨냥했고, 이제는 인간감성까지 고려한 최적제어 측면에서 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 이러한 변화는 소음. 진동분야에도 일어나, 차량이 점차 고성능. 경량화됨 에 따라 더욱 최적화된 구조물 설계를 요구하고 있고, 더 나아가 전자화를 도입 각종 노면 및 주행상태에 따라 최적의 승차감을 제공하는 전자제어 현가 시스템(E.C.S.)이 상품화되었고, 소리를 발생시켜 소음을 제거시키는 능동소음제어 시스템(ANC)의 실용화 단계를 앞두고 있다. 이러한 시점에 국내 자동차의 소음. 진동분야에 종사하는 많은 사람들에게, 실제 우리 국산화가 국내. 외적으로 소음. 진동부분이 어떻게 평가되고 있는지, 또 자동차 대중화 시대를 맞이한 국내의 많은 소비자들의 불만은 어느 정도인지를 인식시켜 각자의 사명감을 고양하고, 참고적으로 일본의 최근 자동차 분야의 소음. 진동 연구 동향을 소개하여 자동차 소음. 진동 대책 연구에 도움이 되고자 한다.

Recently "ride comfort" problem becomes increasingly important because of today's needs for train speedup. The concept of term "ride comfort" is equivocal. Generally it is defined as the vehicle vibration. There are many studies on evaluation method of ride comfort for railway. But each of them recommends the different assessment method and the different guidance. So users must review whether they can apply it to their system or not. In general, the evaluation methods defined in the standards - ISO 2631, UIC 513 R, and Ride Index suggested by Sperling - have been used in the railroad. We performed the ride comfort test in KNR line(Seoul - Kwangju) and simulated the relationship between them. And we compared our results to ERRI's.

This paper proposes a method for damping force modeling of magnetorheological (MR) damper featuring bypass hole. After describing configuration and of the MR damper, a damping force modeling of the MR damper is derived based on Bingham model of MR fluid. MR damper consists of piston, accumulator, gap, bypass hole and coil. Damping force is consists of spring force induced by accumulator, viscous force induced at gap and bypass hole, and controllable force induced at gap.
