In the design process of dynamic characteristics of a railway vehicle, demand for analysis, testing and estimation methods of running stability are increasing as railway vehicle speed is increasing. Critical speed tests and estimation have been carried out using computer simulation or special test facilities, like roller rigs, because real track testing at critical speed is very dangerous. This paper introduces a test and assessment method for critical speed and estimates the validity using several roller rig tests. The test results show that it is difficult to estimate the critical speed using safety and instability assessment method in UIC 518, but that there is good agreement between the reduction of the equivalent damping ratio and the critical speed.

The resistance to motion of the Korean next-generation high-speed train (HEUM-430X) was assessed on the basis of 12 coasting test runs at coasting speeds up to approximately 380km/h. Two different methods, a linear regression method and a time-integral method, were employed to calculate decelerations from the time-velocity data and the time-distance data, respectively, and an equation of resistance to motion was devised from the deceleration data calculated at each time section. The effect of an improvement of the aerodynamic shape on the resistance to motion was investigated, with the results showing that the running resistance was reduced by about 15% due to these improvements. An increase of approximately 28% of the running resistance was also noted when running in a tunnel relative to running through an open field.

Since the purpose of wheel tracking test is to find out relative difference of mixture's rut resistance, the wheel is an important part in the test for obtaining a consistent output. This study is performed to examine efficiency of different wheel material, rubber and steel in wheel tracking test. The rubber was inserted as a ring on the outer face of the steel wheel, and thickness of rubber ring was 15mm and 7.5mm and 0mm (steel wheel without rubber), making the total outer diameter 200mm. The objective of this study was to select reliable wheel material type in wheel tracking test at $60^{\circ}C$ based on variance in output (rut depth and dynamic stability) and correlation with SD (deformation strength). The result of regression analysis of rut depth with Sd showed that $R^2$ values of wheel rubber thickness of 15mm, 7.5mm and 0mm were 0.7, 0.8 and over 0.9, respectively. In a case of steel wheel (0mm), the highest $R^2$ value was 0.9569. Therefore, the wheel without rubber ring was the best in output consistency level and coefficient of determination $(R^2)$ with deformation strength. Therefore, the steel wheel without rubber ring is suggested as the best choice for wheel tracking test of asphalt concrete.

자율주행차는 운전자가 직접 조작하지 않아도 자동차가 주변 환경을 인식해 위험을 판단하고 주행경로를 계획하여 운전자 주행조작을 최소화하며, 스스로 안전운행이 가능한 인간 친화형 자동차이다. 각국은 프로젝트 등을 통해 기술개발을 지원하고 법제화로 후원하고 있는데, 사람이 운전하지 않는 자율주행차가 도로 위를 달릴 수 있는지 논란이 되고 있어 '운전자가 제어하는 차'를 기준으로 관련법을 제정하고 있다. 업체들은 공공도로에서 주행할 수 있는 임시허가를 받아 자율주행차를 시험주행하는 등 개발에 박차를 가하고 있다.

The driving environment of the vehicle has characteristics that the change of position, velocity and distance between vehicles is severe. The performance test of system must be carried out in the real road environments with consideration of the driving environment of vehicles to measure the performance correctly because the performance of vehicular communication systems is affected by the driving conditions of the vehicle. In this paper, we propose the test methods of V2V/V2I performance and V2V multi-hop transmission function and present the test results measured by the vehicular communication systems already developed. In the test result, we confirmed the fact that the distance of communication devices and the driving direction of vehicle are affecting the communication performance. We also confirmed the multi-hop transmission function using the driving vehicle in the limited area as the proposed test method.

The disk cover is installed to protect brake disk and calliper and it's removed right before delivering to customers. The temperature of disk cover was measured driving test vehicles(2000cc, diesel) in this study. The highest temperature measured for the driving test(120km/h-braking(0.3G)-stop-120km/h-braking(0.5G)-stop) was $260{\sim}270^{\circ}C$ in the upper part of the disk cover and the temperature varied considerably around the disk cover. It can be inferred from this temperature distribution around the cover that the major heat transfer from hot disk to cover was through convection. In other words, the hot air generated by braking friction moved up to the upper part of the disk cover. And only the upper area of the disk cover was melted down during this driving test. The thickness of disk cover was increased to 1.0mm from 0.7mm and 1 paper of masking tape was pasted in the upper region of the disk cover. Then the cover endured the heated air formed by braking friction during the driving test.

By using modeling and simulation. today's design engineers are simultaneously reducing time to market and decreasing the cost of development, while increasing the quality and reliability of their products. A driving simulator is the best example of this method and allows virtual designs of control systems, electronic systems, mechanical systems and hydraulic system of a vehicle to be evaluated before costly prototyping. The objective of this Paper is to develop the virtual Proving: ground using a driving simulator and to show its capabilities of an automotive system development tool. For this purpose, including a real-time vehicle dynamics analysis system, the PC-based driving simulator and the virtual proving ground are developed by using VR(Virtual Reality) techniques. Also ABS HIL(Hardware-In-the-Loop ) simulation is performed successfully.

The development of railway vehicles such as new mechanism of railway vehicle or design parameters of suspension have been used the application of scaled roller rig to the study of railway vehicle dynamics. In this paper, the critical speed was compared between full scale and 1:5 scale of numerical model. And to verify the simulation results, the critical speed was confirmed using the 1:5 scaled roller rig. According to the results, we expect that the developed roller rig will be used in the study for the dynamic characteristics of railway vehicle.

This paper presents an experimental evaluation of wandering effect on asphalt concrete pavement responses. A laser-based wandering system has been developed and its performance is verified under various field conditions. The portable wandering system composed of two laser sensors with Position Sensitive Devices can allow one to measure the distance between laser sensors and tire edges of moving vehicle. Therefore, lateral position of each wheel on the pavement can be determined in a real time manner. Pavement responses due to different loading paths are investigated using a roll over test which is carried out on one of asphalt surfaced pavements in the Korea Highway Corporation test road. The pavement section (A5) consists of 5 cm thick surface course; 7 cm intermediate course; and 18 mm base course, and is heavily instrumented with strain gauges, vertical soil pressure cells and thermo-couples. From the center of wheel paths, seven equally-spaced lateral loading paths are carefully selected over an 140 cm wandering zone. Test results show that lateral horizontal strains in both surface and intermediate courses are mostly compressive right under the loading path and tensile strains start to develop as the loading offset becomes 40 cm from the wheel path. The development of the vertical stresses in the top layers of subbase and anti-frost is found to be minimal once the loading offset becomes 50 cm.
