Mining diggers have been substituted with the robots for the mining works in dangerous and narrow tunnel, and those demands are increased in nowadays. In this study, experimental research on the remote controlled robots to perform after the development of the robot. According to the test results, performances of the developed robot and its working devices have been modified several times. It has been considered that the robot keeps its optimum performance in states as follows; driving speed 1.0 km/h, crawl angle $10^{\circ}$, spiking cycle 500bpm and breaking power $30kg_fm$. And also it has been found that sufficient cooling for the robot's working parts is essential to extend those working periods longer than 3 hours steadily under rating condition.

Leisure bicycles are fabricated in a variety of ways these days. Although, the bicycles are designed and manufactured in a variety of ways by numerous companies, customer has a difficulty in gaining information of bicycle which suits them. Accordingly most of buyers purchase bicycle considering body size. Employing the method is one of the ways to decide bike size on the ground of standard body measurement. However, the method above to purchase bicycle is not appropriate for customer considering his/her body. The research mainly aims to design bicycle which allows buyer to adjust optimal design system by himself/herself considering his/her body size. In addition, a device employing fuzzy controller implemented bicycle run test. Using on the result, the research explored an optimal bicycle system which makes a decision whether a bicycle fits body of customer.

The test facility of a 1/60-scale model for train-tunnel systems has been recently developed to investigate the effects of tunnel portal shapes, hood shapes and air-shafts for reducing the micro-pressure waves radiating towards the surroundings from the tunnel exit. The present test rig has been advanced from a 1/70-scale facility at NLR in Netherlands. The NLR test rig has the two-wise guidance system that needs two ears attached on the external surface of a model train nose. Therefore, their train models have irregular nose shapes. The main characteristics of the present facility are that the train model is guided by only one wire from the compressed air launcher to the absorber parts of test facility and the wire guidance hole is located at the axial center of a train model. In the present test rig, after a train model is launched, the air jet from the launcher does not enter the tunnel model. Experimental results were compared with numerical predictions to prove the performance of the test facility.

In this paper, main effects of bridge vibration were investigated by arranging static and dynamic test data on 30 highway bridges. The test were conducted using displacement transducers and strain gages attached at midspan of each bridges over which a heavy test vehicle was running. Then, vibrational characteristics of the bridges were obtained in the time domain analysis by distinguishing the forced and free vibration state. The results obtained in this paper will be used properly to simulate the vibrational behaviour of the bridges which is in the state of the beginning in the domestic.

For the reliability evaluation of the track drive unit(TDU), firstly, we analyzed the major failure modes through FMEA(failure mode & effects analysis), FTA(failure tree analysis), and 2-stage QFD(quality function deployment), and then quantitatively determined the priority order of test items. The Minitab analysis was also performed for prediction of life distribution and parameters of TDU by use of field failure data collected from 430 excavators for two years. In addition, we converted the fluctuation load in field conditions into the equivalent load, and for evaluation of the accelerated lift by the cumulative fatigues, the equivalent load is again divided into the fluctuation load by reference of test time. And then, by use of the test method in this paper, the acceleration factor(AF) of needle bearing inside planetary gear which is the most weakly designed part of TDU is achieved as 5.3. This paper presents the quantitative selection method of test items for reliability evaluation, the determination method of the accelerated life test time, and the method of non-failure test time based on a few of samples. And, we proved the propriety of the proposed methods by experiments using a TDU for a 30 ton excavator.

Vertical reaction force between ground and tire is an important parameter determining the ground behavior characteristics of aircraft. This parameter can be used to calculate the lateral force and friction. However, it is hard to obtain this parameter in real-time when the aircraft is taxiing. Therefore, pre-analysis of ground behavior and vertical reaction force should be conducted using ground simulation results to prevent rollover or hazardous scenarios. In this paper, a Landing Gear and Full-Aircraft model was constructed using VI-Aircraft S/W. The roll behavior of aircraft was analyzed using steering simulation results compared with taxi-test data.

The objective of this study is to test and modify the gantry travel mechanism of an ALV(automated lifting vehicle) as a main technology of development of ALV. For the purpose of the improvement of container terminal productivity, this study performed to develop the ALV as a part of R&D. In order to verify the design data and detect the errors of detailed drawings, we performed the various limited weight test under load and unload conditions. Through the reflect of final drawing based on the this test, we could use to produce the more complete vehicle.

본 논문에서는 틸팅열차의 안전성 확보 및 운행효율 향상을 위해 "한국형 틸팅열차 신뢰성 평가 및 운용기술개발" 연구과제의 한 분야로 추진된 ATP 차상장치의 중앙선 시험운행 중 우천시 발생한 이상 속도 현시 현상에 대한 원인 분석 및 조치사항을 제시하고 있다. 현재 한국철도기술연구원에서는 기존선의 속도 향상과 KTX 비 수혜지역의 여객 서비스 향상을 위해 틸팅열차를 개발하였으며, 개발된 틸팅열차의 신뢰성 평가를 위해 약 13만 km 주행 시험운행을 진행하였다. 틸팅열차 중앙선 시험운행 중 실제 약 143km/h로 운행 중이던 열차의 속도는 MMI 상에 최고 167km/h까지 현시 되었다. 이러한 현상은 기관사로 하여금 규정 속도를 준수하여 안전운행을 하는데 어려움을 줄 수 있다. 따라서 이러한 현상의 원인을 찾고 조치하였으며 시험운행을 통해 정상상태로 동작함을 확인하였다.

Recently green house gas emission problem has been issued because $CO_2$ emission is known to cause global warming. Hence, introduces more stringent emission and fuel economy requirements in various countries, including Korea. In this research, $CO_2$ emission factor characteristics of in-use cars, which are the most dominant vehicle type in Korea, were studied, and 129 gasoline vehicles, 100 diesel vehicles, and 34 LPG vehicles were tested on a chassis dynamometer. In the tests, CO and $CO_2$ emissions as well as fuel reduction rates weremeasured. The tests were conducted in the CVS-75 mode, which has been considered for developing emission factors for regulating emissions from light-duty vehicles in Korea. Through experiments, correlations among displacement, fuel consumption efficiency, fuel type, mileage, driving pattern, and $CO_2$ emission were investigated.
