In recent, recreational vehicles, which efficiently provide wide inner space for various utilities, are highly preferred in automobile market. Though those vehicles enable to load much luggage in space behind the last seat, in case of frontal impact with high velocity the luggage strongly collides into the seat back and the passengers in. the last seat could be severely injured. Therefore, high strength against luggage intrusion is required for the last seat, and it is regulated by law of ECE R17. In this study, for a recreational vehicle under developing, an analysis technique for simulating seat crash in accordance with luggage intrusion test of ECE R17 was investigated. The results exhibited good correlation with the test ones.

The purpose of this study is to develop an impact crusher with a radial rotating plate installed at the bottom, which is a shock absorber that can produce high-quality recycled coarse aggregate for concrete and to verify the effect of improving the quality performance of recycled coarse aggregate and its applicability through concrete tests. As a result, it showed improved quality in all items such as absolute dry density, absorption rate, abrasion resistance, Particle shape judgment rate, amount lost in the 0.08 mm sieve passing test, alkali aggregate reaction, clay mass, stability, and impurity content, and it was found to meet the criteria of recycled aggregate quality standards. In addition, the air volume and slump of concrete to which recycled coarse aggregate is applied meet all domestic standards. According to the test results of the compressive strength characteristics by age of concrete according to the mixing ratio of the recycled coarse aggregate, it was confirmed that the mixing ratio of the recycled coarse aggregate was applicable up to 60 %.

To verify the possibility of generating rattling noise from a motor on caliper brake system, a test was conducted using a caliper excited with vibrations similar to that in a vehicle running on actual roads; this test was conducted using a quiet shaker installed in an anechoic room. After several hours of external excitation, the test assembly was loosened, and the frequency of rattling noise generation increased. A microphone was used to record the generated noise. The measured signals were analyzed by conventional spectrum analysis. Since the noise is generated as an impact response, the advantages of employing Prony analysis was discussed, and the results were compared to those obtained using conventional fast Fourier transforms. The accuracy of Prony analysis was through endurance tests on different brake systems.
