최근년의 철도차량의 동향을 살펴보면, 고속경량화와 더불어 차체강도 및 진동특성 등이 중요 시됨에 따라 안전운행을 위하여 제작된 차량의 실제강도가 설계치의 허용범위내에 있어야 하 므로, 우리나라에서도 차량안전성차량을 위하여 전기제한 스트레인 게이지를 이용한 능력해석을 개발하여 성능평가에 도입할 수 있게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 선진외국과 같은 방식의 스트레인 게이지 법을 사용하여 전동객차의 차체 및 대동수 측정에는 가속도계와 스트레인 게이지를 transducer 로 사용하여 진동특성을 기록 및 분석하고, 안정성을 평가하였다.

The purpose of this study is to verify the safety issue of the tinted vehicle based on the field study as well as the issue of the capacity reduction from the tinted vehicle. Through this study, an innovative experimental method to verify the issues was developed using RTK GPS receivers, and a data collection was conducted using the developed experimental method. Using the collected data, the effects of the ahead vehicle with the windows tinted on the traffic condition such as headways and acceleration noise were analyzed to test that the ahead vehicle with windows tinted too darkly affects the increasing vehicle maneuver as following the degree of tinting. This study was conducted as a frontier study and more studies, for example, full scale analyses considering various road and vehicle conditions need to be conducted in the future.

In this study, vehicle speeds at acceleration and deceleration lanes of rest areas for drowsy drivers were investigated to analyze effects of acceleration and deceleration lane lengths, grades and curve radius. In addition, we used VISSM to analyze proper lengths of rest area's acceleration and deceleration lanes. Several VISSIM scenarios with different lengths of acceleration and deceleration lane were constructed. Through VISSIM simulation, we collected individual vehicle speed data to analyze speed changes by different lengths of acceleration and deceleration lanes. As a result of the vehicle speed change investigation, grades and curve radii of the rest area affected the speed, most of all lengths of acceleration and deceleration lane showed a great effect on the vehicle speed. In the case of short lengths of acceleration and deceleration lane, speed variation among vehicles was significant. If the deceleration lane length is short, the vehicle enters a state in which the speed is not sufficiently reduced, and if the acceleration lane length is short, the vehicle enters a state in which the speed is not sufficiently accelerated showing high risks of conflicts and accidents. It is recommended that 245m length of deceleration lane and 370m length of acceleration lane should be installed at least to secure safety and manage conflicts relevantly.

현재 차량 위치 추적 시 사용빈도가 가장 많은 방법은, 지도상에 자신의 위치를 수치로 보여주는 GPS 수신기를 사용하여 지도상 실외의 위치를 측위 한다. 위의 GPS를 이용한 내비게이션은 차량의 진행방향, 출발 도착 지점을 설정하여 차량을 운행한다. 또한 GPS 음영지역 및 신호 지연의 문제를 해결하기 위한 지자기센서와 가속도센서를 사용하는 시스템도 있다. 그러나 센서를 활용할 경우 차량의 방향 정보를 얻을 수 있지만 음영 및 신호 왜곡 시간이 길어질 경우 정확한 차량의 위치를 판단 할 수 없다. 즉, GPS의 신호에 오류가 있을 경우 차량의 이동거리를 알 수 없으므로 차량의 회전 정보는 효용 가치가 떨어진다. 따라서 이를 보정하기 위해서는 정확한 차량의 위치를 판단할 수 있는 시스템이 필요하다. 본 논문에서는 기존 GPS의 문제를 해결하기 위해 차량의 속도정보와 스마트폰의 지자기센서를 활용한 실외 위치 추적 시스템과 WiFi 정보를 활용한 차량용 WPS시스템을 설계 하였다.

차량충돌에 대하여 운전자의 안전확보를 위하여 새로 개발한 철재 중앙분리대에 대한 안전성 분석을 위하여 인체모형을 탑재한 실물차량 충돌실험을 실시하였다. 인체모형의 두부와 흉부, 대퇴부 및 차량의 무게중심점에서 가속도와 충격하중을 계측하여 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리에 차량충돌시 운전자의 안전성을 검증한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 도출하였다. 1) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리는 콘크리트 중앙분리대 방호울타리에 비해 운전자의 신체 상해치와 차량파괴 등에 있어서 뛰어난 충격흡수성능을 보여주었다. 2) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리는 콘크리트 중앙분리대 방호울타리의 경우 빈번히 발생하는 차량전복과 같은 2차사고의 유발 가능성이 전혀 없는 구조적 안정성을 보여주었다. 3) 경량의 차량충돌에 대하여 자체 탄성영역내에서 충격을 흡수하여 유지보수 측면에서 유리함을 나타냈다. 4) 충돌 수 충돌차량에 대한 차량유도성능이 뛰어났으며, 차량의 충돌후 이탈각도는 충돌각도의 60% 이내로 나타났다. 5) 철재 중앙분리대 방호울타리로부터 분리된 파편이 거의 없어 도로소통에 지장을 초래하지 않는다.

Potholes are caused by the presence of water in the underlying soil structure, which weakens the road pavement by expansion and contraction of water at freezing and thawing temperatures. Recently, automatic pothole detection systems have been studied, such as vibration-based methods and laser scanning methods. However, the vibration-based methods have low detection accuracy and limited detection area. Moreover, the costs for laser scanning-based methods are significantly high. Thus, in this paper, we propose a new pothole detection system using a commercial black-box camera. Normally, the computing power of a commercial black-box camera is limited. Thus, the pothole detection algorithm should be designed to work with the embedded computing environment of a black-box camera. The designed pothole detection algorithm has been tested by implementing in a black-box camera. The experimental results are analyzed with specific evaluation metrics, such as sensitivity and precision. Our studies confirm that the proposed pothole detection system can be utilized to gather pothole information in real-time.

Traffic signal is one of the major factors that affect the amount of vehicle emissions on urban highway. The amount of vehicle emissions in urban area is highly affected by the vehicle's cruising speeds heavily influenced by the traffic signal lighting conditions. It was attempted in this study to trace the changing patterns of the vehicle emissions by collecting the emission data from a set of simulation studies and by categorizing vehicle cruising conditions into four different groups: idling, acceleration, deceleration, and running at a constant speed. Authors propose a simple emission model prepared based on Kinematic theory. The validation test results showed that the amount of the emission estimated by the proposed model was relatively satisfactory compared to the one of the existing model employing the average speed data only as the determinant.

As an Accident data recorder (ADR) is a system to record a vehicle's status and dynamics information on the before and after of accident, Traffic accident investigation agencies and parts developers have a lot of interest to analyze an accident objectively and develop automotive safety devices by using real accident data, This study is to analyze an accident objectively and scientifically on the basis of traffic accident reconstruction with the use of output data of an event data recorder. This study is conducted double lane change test six times and slalom test one time as a field driving test and simulation. Based on the vehicle speed, the longitudinal and transverse acceleration, steering angle, driving path, and other kinds of information obtained from the field driving test, this study performed a simulation with PC-Crash program of reenacting and analyzing a traffic accident. The simulation was performed twice in the acceleration-steering angle input method and in the acceleration-driving path input method. By comparing the result of the field driving test with the results of the two simulations, we drew an analysis method with the optimal path reconstruction.

In this work, the stability and safety analysis are carried out to predict the performance of a next generation high-speed railway vehicle (HEMU-400X). Since the safety of the high-speed railway vehicles is very important, it is meaningful to predict the dynamic performance and stability of the railway vehicles using a numerical model at a railway vehicle design step. The critical speed of the dynamic model depending on the conicity of the wheel is calculated in the stability analysis. The critical speed calculated in this analysis is over 400km/h for the conicity value of 0.15, which is determined on the basis of representative international standard, UIC 518. Also, the lateral and vertical accelerations at several points of the same dynamic model are calculated for the safety analysis. In the simulation, the dynamic model runs at the test speed of 440km/h, which is determined considering a maximum target speed, and the total driving distance is 30km. And those estimated values are less than the allowed maximum acceleration values of UIC 518.
