As of December 2016, the number of registered automobiles in Korea exceeds 21million. As a result, greenhouse gas emission by transportation sector are increasing every year. It was concluded that the development of the driving strategy considering the driving behavior and the road conditions, which are known to affect the fuel efficiency and the greenhouse gas emissions, could be the most effective fuel economy improvement. Therefore, this study aims to develop a fuel efficient driving strategy in a complex linear section with uphill and curved sections. The road topography was designed according to 'Rules about the Road Structure & Facilities Standards'. Various scenarios were selected. After generating the speed profile, it was applied to the Comprehensive Modal Emission Model and fuel consumption was calculated. The scenarios with the lowest fuel consumption were selected. After that, the fuel consumption of the manual driver's driving record and the selected optimal driving strategy were compared and analyzed for verification. As a result of the analysis, the developed optimal driving strategy reduces fuel consumption by 21.2% on average compared to driving by manual drivers.

In this study, the effects of inertial driving on a fuel-cut zone were analyzed by measuring the instantaneous variations of fuel consumption and speed. Thirteen sites with 2-8% downhill slopes were selected for the vehicle experiments. The vehicles were driven on the sites in two different driving modes, and the various vehicle states were measured using OBD under driving. For the analysis of the effects of inertial driving, the characteristics of fuel consumption, speed, and rpm were compared between normal and inertial driving. As a result, the fuel consumption was reduced from 24% to 78% according to the downhill grade. The amount of fuel consumption reduction was about 30cc for driving 500m downhill. Fuel cost savings amounting to 35 billion won can be achieved if inertial driving will be done in the case of Munemi-ro3. It is also believed that the reduced fuel consumption and vehicle speed through inertial driving will have considerable environmental and safety benefits.

Large hydraulic excavator weighted 90 tons used the several pumps installed in parallel to use the hydraulic pump driving gearbox to improve fuel consumption by improving the energy efficiency of the hydraulic system. Gearbox connected to hydraulic pump supply the mechanical output to the high pressure and low pressure pump to be supplied by torque and rotation, which are the mechanical power, through a input shaft connected to large size engine of the excavator. So, gearbox connected to hydraulic pump is same as main artery in the human body and is required long life because it operates the hydraulic pump continuously during operating the engine. This study had used oil contamination analysis method to check the wear characteristics of the gearbox and frequency response characteristic analysis method to check the failure of the teeth failures of gearbox, while the test equipment adopted by the electrical feedback method to reduce the energy consumption was operating for the life assessment, in which the required power was 600 kW input power.

최근, 수송기기 분야는 국제 환경규제 강화에 따른 CO2 절감, 연비향상, 경량화를 위한 기술적 수요가 증대되고 있으며, 그린카, 그린선박 등 친환경 수송기기에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만, 기존의 금속소재가 가지는 경량화의 한계를 극복하기 위해서는 CFRP, GFRP 등 금속대체 복합소재를 적용한 수송용 경량부품 개발에 대한 필요성이 요구되고 있다. 복합소재는 섬유사이에서 응력을 전달하는 기지(Matrix)와 하중을 전달하는 섬유(Fiber)의 종류와 양 및 적층 각도에 따라 수송용 부품에 적합한 기계적 특성을 얻을 수 있고, 높은 비강도와 비강성의 값을 갖게 되어 경량화가 용이한 장점이 있다. 반면, 섬유재의 종류, 성형방법, 경화온도 등에 따라 물리적 특성에 큰 변화가 발생하며, 수지의 경화조건에 따라 성형시간이 많이 소요되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 자동차, 선박, 항공기, 철도차량 등 각종 수송기기의 경량화를 목적으로 생산성 향상 및 성형시간 절감을 위해 열가소성 수지, 저온속경화 수지를 적용하여, 경화 시간을 단축시키고, 3D-fabric 및 다층구조 직물을 Vacuum Infusion 공법으로 성형하여, 기존의 섬유재 적층시 소요되는 작업 공정을 간소화 할 수 있도록, 고속성형 복합소재를 적용한 수송용 경량부품 개발에 관한 연구를 수행하였다.

지구온난화의 심화로 사회적으로 환경의 중요성에 대한 인식이 확산되면서 $CO_2$ 배기가스 및 연비와 직결되어 있는 자동차 중량 절감의 중요성이 강조됨에 따라 차체 경량화 기술은 환경 친화적인 자동차 개발의 핵심기술로 연구되고 있다. 그러나 충돌보호 장치 및 편의장치의 증가로 차체 중량은 지속적으로 증가하고 있어 차체 중량을 혁신적으로 절감할 수 있는 초경량 차체기술이 요구된다. 차체 경량화 방법으로 기존 강재를 알루미늄재로 대체하는 방안이 연구되고 있으며, 일부 해외 고급 차종에서 알루미늄재를 이용한 스페이스 프레임 및 부품 개발을 검토 적용 중이다. 그러나 알루미늄 단일재 사용은 안전성등에서 요구 성능을 만족시키기 어렵기 때문에 강재와 알루미늄재의 적절한 사용이 필요하다. 이를 위하여 강재와 알루미늄간 이종접합부가 발생하며 이를 위한 적정 공정 개발이 필요하다. 전자기 펄스 용접(MPW)은 고상접합의 한 종류로서 고전류를 순간적으로 방전하여 발생된 고에너지를 통하여 접합이 이루어진다. 이러한 고에너지는 외부재의 전 자기적 성질에 의하여 에너지량이 결정되므로 외부재의 전도도(conductivity)는 매우 중요하며 이러한 이유로 Aluminum 1xxx계 중심의 전자기 펄스 용접 공정이 연구되었다. 그러나 자동차 스페이스 프레임 및 드라이브 샤프트등과 같은 부품에 알루미늄재를 적용하기 위해서는 일정 강도를 확보할 수 있는 6xxx계의 관련 연구가 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 고품질의 접합부 확보를 위한 1xxx계와 6xxx의 최적의 공정변수(충전전압, 외부재와 내부재 사이의 간격, 외부재 두께)를 도출하였다. 이를 위하여 전자기 펄스 용접 장치는 한국생산기술연구원과 웰메이트(주)에서 공동으로 개발한 $120{\mu}F$의 캐패시터 6개로 구성된 'W-MPW36'을 사용하였으며 접합 후 누수시험을 통하여 접합부의 품질을 검토하였다.

Recently, various alternatives for safety and efficiency of commercial vehicles have been considered, and one of the new alternatives is the application of a digital tachograph. In Korea, the installation of a digital tachograph to commercial vehicles was regulated from 2011 and Korea Transportation Safety Authority developed e-TAS to analyze the monitoring data from digital tachographs installed in the order of 100 commercial vehicles. This study performs the potential impact analysis of the DTG installation, which includes a trend of dangerous driving, a trend of traffic accidents and cost-effective analysis, a trend of fuel consumption and cost-effective analysis, a cost-effective analysis of social benefits using e-TAS data. Depending on the frequency of dangerous driving, the participants are divided into three groups; high-dangerous group, average-dangerous group and low-dangerous group. The high-dangerous driving group shows lower km/liter than the low-dangerous driving group by 15% for buses and taxis and by 30% for trucks. About $CO_2$ emission, the difference becomes bigger; 25%, 25% and 42% for buses, taxis and trucks, respectively. Although this study is a short-term period analysis, the methodology will be applicable for the long-term period analysis with larger data.

As late as middle of 1980s, what was referred to as new model cars consisted, on the premise of a standardized packaging layout, principally of the endeavor to transform their style images by changing little by little the form of layouts almosts similar to or with larger bodies than those of the old model ones. Afterwards even in the period of competition of engeineering and mechanical body styles for reducing fuel cost and improving comfortability in riding, the standardized packaging layout did not change visibly, simply trying to ameliorating commercialism through high output and high efficacy on the engineering part. Today the sudden prevalent motorization in every walk of life has brought about the development of the car industry, thus producing surplus supply and technical standardization. This phenomenon of technical standardization leads the concept of the renovation of car design to a way quite different from that of the past and so may be said to be confronted with an era that requires genuine-sense car design in a way. It seems that interior design plans are of much more importance than external shapes. This is because the effort for enhancing comfortability to keep car passengers' needs of transportation is one of the essences of car design. The objective of this study consists in inquiring into how to plan motorcar interior design, an essential prerequisite in determining the external or of a car, obtaining data needed via analysis of interior design plans of the car models that have won favorable criticism from consumers, thus contributing to the use of the data obtained for reference in car design activities in a genuine sense.
