The noise generated from a treadband mechanism of a tire has been the subject of this research. In particular, the treadband has been treated as an infinite tensioned beam resting on an elastic foundation which includes damping. The main objective is to predict the sound power generated from a system mentioned above by locating harmonic point forces representing the excitation of treadband at the contact patch. It is possible to predict the sound power radiated from this structure by using wavenumber transformation techniques. In order to find out the minimum radiated sound power, All parameters were varied. Thus, this model can be used as a tire design guide for selecting parameters which produces the minimum noise radiation.

The development of low rolling resistance tire with weight reduction in tire and vehicle may induce high level of tire/road noise, especially the rumble road noise on rough road. In this paper, the design factor for good rumble noise is considered in view of tire and vehicle. For the 3 mid-sized sedans, the rumble noise is very sensitive to the test vehicle. And it is concluded that the tire with high tread part stiffness and low sidewall part stiffness shows best rumble noise performance, and the rumble noise is in trade-off relation with cavity resonance noise. So, it is desirable to select and change proper construction design factors to have good tire/vehicle rumble noise.

일반 소형 승용차의 고속 주행시 발생하는 진동 중 조향휠의 원주방향의 진동인 shimmy 현상을 연구하였다. Shimmy 현상은 쾌적한 차량 설계단계에서 예측할 수 있고 그 원인을 추정할 수 있도록 조 향계의 모델링 및 이론해석을 하였으며 실험결과치와의 비교검토를 통하여 모델링에 대한 타당성을 검 증하였다. 검증된 모델링을 이용하여 조향계를 구성하는 각 부재의 감쇠, 강성, 타이어의 트레일 및 stabilizer bar 의 강성등의 변화가 조향휠 진동에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 특히 shimmy 현상이 타이 어의 편마모등에 의한 unbalance mass에 얼마나 민감한가를 실험 및 이론적인 해석을 통하여 고찰하였다.

최근 승용차의 설계는 일반적으로 고속화, 경량화 추세에 있다. 이에 따라 심각하게 대두되고 있는 것이 진동문제로서, 그중에서도 조향계(steering system)의 진동은 보다 쾌적한 승차감 내지 조정성능을 저해하고 운전자에게 불쾌감을 초래하는 진동으로서 이에 대한 개선책이 요구되어 왔다. 따라서 이러한 조향계의 진동인 쉬미(shimmy)현상을 저감시키기 위해서는 다음과 같은 방법등이 있다. 1) 가진원이 되는 타이어의 불균형 질량을 줄이거나 타이어의 정밀도를 증가시키는 방법. 2) 진동전달 경고상의 감쇠특성과 조향계의 강성을 변화시켜 전달률을 줄이는 방법. 3) 차체의 동특성 변화를 통하여 고유진동수를 변화시켜 공진영역을 옮기는 방법. 이 글에서는 쉬미에 큰 영향을 줄 것으로 생각되어지는 여러 중요한 인자들을 단계적으로 포함 시켜가면서 이론해석 결과와 실험결과를 비교 . 검토 . 보완해갈 것이며, 그 결과 이론적으로 쉬미현상을 예측할 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다.

This paper is to investigate the reinforcing effects of newly devised Tire-cell mat made of waste tires in sand. Parametric study on number of connection bolts between Tirecells, relative density of sand, embedded depth, number of reinforced layers and width of Tirecell mat was made by using plate loading tests. It is found that the number of connection bolt was enough to maintain the given pressure. The bearing capacity ratio(BCR), which is defined as the rate of ultimate bearing capacity of reinforced soil to that of unreinforced soil, is the highest at the lowest density. And the reinforcing effect can be obtained in case of embedded depth within 1.0B, where B is loading width. Also settlement reduction is the highest at the lowest density of sand. The effect of number of Tirecell reinforced layers with 0.4B to 0.5B interval is limited to 2 layers and further reinforcing effects can not be obtained beyond 3 layers. Especially, the bearing capacity increased remarkably at 1 layer of reinforcement and the degree of increase was small from 1 layer to 2 layers of reinforcement. The effect of mat width of Tirecell was not significant because of high stiffness of Tirecell although the maximum bearing capacity was shown at the 2.0B mat width and the reinforcing effects of Tirecell, in general, was prominent compared with those of commercial Geoweb.

Vehicle is a dynamic system combined with various parameters. Dynamic characteristics of a vehicle can vary with the change of these parameters. To investigate the effect of the design parameter on vehicle handling performance the sensitivity analysis is carried out by the numerical method. The vehicle model is described by equivalent cornering stiffness that considers parameters of suspension and steering system. As the analysis results show the effect on the static and dynamic characteristics of the vehicle system, the sensitivity analysis can be used for synthesis of the design parameters to improve the vehicle handling characteristics at the design stage as well as during the vehicle test under development.

조화집중이동하중을 받는 무한보에서의 음향방사에 대한 연구는 선박, 비행기, 타이어 트레드 밴느 등과 같은 계의 설계시 계의 구조물로부터 발생하는 소음에 대한 해결방안을 제시해 준다. 구조물 표면에 발생하는 음향파워는 svktnqusghks방법을 이용하여 보의 전길이에 분포된 음향 인텐시티를 적분하여 구한다. 보의 표면에서 발생하는 음향파원는 미하수, 장력, 감쇠계수, 기초강성계수, 그리고 파수비에 의해서 결정된다. 각 인자에 따른 음향파워에 대한 정성적인 분석을 수행하기 위해 심프슨 적분방법을 이용하여 수치적분을 하였다. 무한보에 작용하는 유체하중에 3다라 진동에너지가 음향에너지로 변환되는 비율이 달라진다. 밀도가 큰 유체는 등가감쇠로 작용하여 보로부터 방사된 음향에너지는 빠르게 감소된다. 하중의 이동에 의하여 도플러이동효과가 발생하여 무한보의 공진부근에서의 음향파워 파크가 분리되고 보의 기초감쇠의 영향으로 음향에너지는 감소된다.

The vibration of a vehicle, which is caused by and transmitted from the engine, has significant effect on the ride comfort and the dynamic characteristics of the engine mount system has direct influence on the vibration and noise of the vehicle. This paper examines the body shake caused by the engine excitation force on engine key-off of a jeep by experiment and computer simulation using a general purpose mechanical system program, DADS. The computer simulation model consists of the engine, body including frame, and front and rear axles and each axle has right and left tires. The force element between body and suspension is modeled as a combination of suspension spring and damper, and the unsprung mass has roll and pitch motion. The body shake obtained from experiment was compared with the result of computer simulation. Parametric study of the body shake on engine key-off is performed with changing the stiffness of engine mount rubber, the engine mount installation angle and position of engine mounts by using the verified computer simulation model.
