In Early vessels did not provide an exact equation for preventig the capsizing vessels. On land, many vehicle rollover prevention technologies using the steady-state Conrning Equations were developed, which showed better performance than the exiting method at sea. For better performance, It is proposed to improve safety mangement when turning vessel using the Ackerman geometic model-based Cornering Equations in this paper.

When constructing a high-speed railroad, the reduction of the distance between track centers and the width of track bed will save the construction cost. However the shortening the distance between track centers may cause the stability problems due to higher wind pressure. Therefore the extensive technical review and aerodynamical study should be performed to determine the adequate distance between track centers. In this study, the impact that the increase in wind pressure due to the change of aerodynamic phenomena with the change of the distance between track centers may have on two trains passing by each other was predicted, and the stability of train operation was analyzed in order to review the distance between track centers suitable to Honam HSR trains. We conducted the parametric study of the effects of train wind on the running stability.

The dynamic stability of a robot vehicle can be enhanced by the Force-Angle Stability Margin concept that considers a variety of dynamic effects. To evaluate the robot vehicle stability, a SPI(stability performance index), which is a function of the suspension arm angles, was used. If the SPI has a minimum value, the robot vehicle has maximum stability. The FASM and SPI concepts were incorporated in the mobility simulation by using ADAMS and MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation results using these concepts showed significant improvements of the vehicle stability on rough terrains.

Entry speed of the vehicle and lateral acceleration acting on the vehicle, roll-angle associated with the overthrow, and then the structure of the road, the friction of road surface are important factors in turning on the curved road. In this study, we analyzed the state change of the vehicle causing entry speed of the vehicle and superelevation of the road, the friction coefficient by using a PC-crash Program for traffic accident reconstruction. As a result, when vehicle is turning the curved road, we could ascertain that the structure of the road and state of the road surface are a major factor about the set up of limited speed.

In this study, the side doors of mid-size sedan vehicles of models A and B which are currently prone to rollover accidents are compared with each other by the structural analyses. As a result of the structural analysis, both models showed the maximum deformation at the point of overturning or impact load, and the model A of the two models was able to withstand greater impact load compared to the model B. In addition, the maximum stress happened at the door edge, and model B was 2.5 times more stressed than model A. In the accident of a crash, model A, which has the smaller maximum stress, is able to withstand greater impact loads than model B. Since model B has a larger deformation than model A, it is considered to be more dangerous than model A in the side impact accident. By applying the impact analysis of automotive side door by the class of vehicle, the study result at this paper is considered to be favorable as the convergent research material which can apply the aesthetic design.

Vehicle rollover is an important issue for the traffic safety. Rollover can occur from the driver's action, the vehicle characteristics, or the road condition. This study is about the rollover propensity analysis of a jeep vehicle using the steering and braking maneuver, which is the combined result by the driver and the vehicle. Simple equations of roll motion is used to analyze the roll motion and a special purpose vehicle dynamics program is used to simulate the rollover of the jeep vehicle. From the simulation, an incipient rollover motion of the vehicle was found. However, the more complete rollover propensity analysis would require further investigation using roll dynamic sensitivity study.

Vehicle rollover is a serious kind of accident, particularly for sport utility vehicles, and its occurrence can be minimized by utilizing active rollover prevention systems. The performance of these protection systems is very sensitive to vehicle inertial parameters such as the vehicle's mass and center of mass. These parameters vary with the number of passengers and in different load situations. In this paper, a unified method for vehicle mass estimation is proposed that takes into account the available driving conditions. Three estimation algorithms are developed based on longitudinal, lateral, and vertical vehicle motion, respectively. Then, the three algorithms are combined to extract information on the vehicle's mass during arbitrary vehicle maneuvering. The performance of the proposed vehicle mass estimation method is demonstrated through real-time experiments.

The roll characteristic of railway vehicle is an important factor that affects the roll-over of vehicle and lateral ride comfort of passenger. Generally the roll characteristics of railway vehicle is defined by the term of roll-coefficient, s, which represents the ratio of incline or carbody to that of rail-cant. The limit values of roll coefficient recommended in UIC Bre 0.4 for coach without pantograph and 0.15 for vehicle with pantograph. The roll coefficient can be calculated by VAMPIRE that is the well-known commercial software for analysis of dynamic behavior of railway vehicle. The value of roll coefficient is effected by height of gravity center of carbody, stiffness of primary and secondary suspension and etc. The calculated roll-coefficient for electric locomotive and passenger coach is 0.12 and 0.77 respectively, The additional equipment such as anti-roll bar is considered in order to decrease roll-coefficient of passenger coach. In relation to roll characteristics, the analysis for roll-over due to wind is a1so performed. The results show that roll-characteristics affect the roll-over of vehicle.

This paper presents static output feedback LQ and $H_{\infty}$ controllers for rollover prevention. Linear quadratic static output feedback controllers have been proposed for rollover prevention in such a way to minimize the lateral acceleration and the roll angle. Rollover prevention capability can be enhanced if $H_{\infty}$ controller is designed. To avoid full-state measurement for feedback requirement or sensitiveness of an observer to nonlinear model error, static output feedback is adopted. To design static output feedback controllers, Kosut's method is adopted because it is simple to calculate. Differential braking and active anti-roll bar are adopted as actuators that generate yaw and roll moments, respectively. The proposed method is shown to be effective in preventing rollover through the simulations on nonlinear multi-body dynamic simulation software, CarSim.
