According to the present highway design criteria, there are minimum standards which re ade from special design speeds. If some highways are satisfied the standards, it regards he highway as safety. In reality, however, most drivers drive a car at different speed compared with design speed. It is very dangerous for drivers especially at transition sections between curve and horizontal curve sections. Hence, this study calculated the rate of changing and horizontal acceleration at each section. Moreover, this study evaluated thesafety of design at curve transition sections and then calculated lateral acceleration and curve radii. This study found the minimum standards which are using as basic safety standards are not appropriate for measuring driver's safety.

With the rapid advances in automated driving technology, opportunities to experience automated driving directly or indirectly are being provided to the public. On the other hand, research on the preferred automated driving patterns from the user's perspective has not been conducted in Korea. This study used a driving simulator and an experimental vehicle capable of automated driving to evaluate the user satisfaction regarding longitudinal and lateral accelerations. Automated driving patterns were implemented in a virtual environment simulation using five values of longitudinal and lateral accelerations derived from driving experiments. Among these values, three were implemented through experimental vehicle-based automated driving to evaluate satisfaction and anxiety. The participants evaluated lateral acceleration more sensitively than longitudinal acceleration and showed higher levels of anxiety. Based on these results, the necessity of user-oriented evaluation research for automated driving patterns and the suitability of simulator-based evaluation methods were presented.

In this study, the method to predict the lateral response by using strain data is presented on the steel moment frame. For this, the reliability of the proposed method by applying the example of five-story frame structure were verified. Using the strain value of columns, it predicted the lateral response of structure. It is assumed that all of four strain sensors for one column set up and the strain responses of both end of the column are utilized. The lateral response of member is calculated by using the slope deflection method. Also, using the acceleration response of the one layer, the stiffness of the rotation spring located in the supporting point is predicted. As a result, it was effective to understand the lateral displacement and acceleration responses and to predict local damage and location.

Transition curves are located between curve and straight section in railway. These transition curves are vulnerable to the ride comfort of passengers and safety of a vehicle because lateral acceleration, lateral jerk and roll velocity increase as curvature and cant change along the transition curves. In this paper, ride comfort on the transition curve was calculated on the basis of lateral acceleration and roll velocity measurements. The evaluation of ride comfort was conducted according to the methodology specified in European Standard. The distribution characteristics of the comfort index were investigated for the korean conventional line from the evaluation results. The influence of the curve radius and the vehicle speed on the ride comfort index was also investigated. Finally, the relationship between ride comfort and the rate of cant changes on transition curves was analyzed.

Accelerometers are widely used to measure the lateral vibrations of pipe-like structures such as a gun tube under impulse loads. Stress waves that precede the lateral vibrations due to the explosion within a gun contribute little to the vibrations, but saturate the accelerometer input. A mechanical filter eliminates this high-frequency stress wave and only transmits the signal corresponding to the lateral vibrations. The mechanical filter consists of a mechanical structure for mounting the accelerometers and a damping material. The low-pass filter characteristics are determined from the equivalent damping and stiffness property of this damping material. In this paper, we tested nine commercially available damping materials for their vibration characteristics by using a test rig. We also observed the change in the vibration characteristics while compressing the material. We designed and manufactured a mechanical filter and verified its filtering performance.

As the ambient vibration test (AVT) of railway bridges has a limited range of speed, it has a limitation in examining the dynamic behavior of bridges accordingto speed. Thus, in order to analyze the correlation between the speed of a train passing over a bridge and the bridge's dynamic response, we conducted a speed-increasing experiment using a real diesel locomotive. To analyze the acceleration response characteristics, we attached seven vertical accelerometers at equal intervals throughout the entire section of the bridge except the supports, and one horizontal accelerometer to the middle span. Linear variable differential transformers (LVDT) were installed at the bridge's center in both vertical and horizontal directions to investigate the vertical and horizontal behaviors. The test train was statically loaded at the center and at the end of the bridge. And its speed was increased from 5 km/h to 90 km/h. With data obtained from the experiment, the vibration level was evaluated in each direction by the filtering frequency, and the level of horizontal vibration was examined in comparison with vertical vibration. The displacement and wheel load variation was analyzed by speed.

자동반송 장비의 주행축에 적용되는 횡자속 선형전동기는 위치제어를 목적으로 한다. 위치제어는 자동 반송 장비가 최소구동시간에 최대의 생산을 할 수 있도록 성능이 우수한 구동프로파일을 사용하게 되는데, 어떤 종류의 구동 프로파일을 적용하느냐에 따라 시스템 전체의 응답 속도는 물론이고 진동과 소음을 최소화하여 전체 시스템의 성능을 좌우하게 된다. 일반적으로 사용되는 사다리꼴 속도 프로파일은 변화가 일정한 가감속 전류를 필요로 하고, 전체 구동시간이 짧아 간단한 시스템에 널리 사용되고 있지만, 가속의 끝점과 감속 구간의 시작점에서 급격한 속도 변화에 따른 져크(Jerk)가 발생하여 기구부에 충격이 가해지며, 이로 인한 진동과 소음을 유발해 순간적으로 큰 동적 에러를 발생시킨다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 부드러운 속도 프로파일을 가지며 운동의 시작점과 끝점에서 '0'의 가속과 져크를 가지는 고차원의 구동 프로파일을 제시하고 횡자속 선형전동기에 적용하여 소음 특성을 분석하였다.

This paper addressed the problems of controlling the coupled pitch-roll motions in a marine vessel exposed to the regular waves in the longitudinal and transversal directions. Stabilization of the pitch and roll motions can be regarded as the essential task to ensure the safety of a ship's navigation. One of the important features in the pitch-roll motions is the resonance phenomena, which result in unexpected large responses in terms of pitch and roll modes in some specific conditions. Besides, owing to its inherent characteristics of coupled combination and nonlinearity of restoring terms, the vessel shows various dynamical behaviors according to the system parameters, especially in the pitch responses. Above all, it can be seen that suppression of pitch rate remains the most significant challenge to overcome for ship maneuvering safety studies. To secure the stable upright condition, a quasi-sliding mode control scheme is employed to reduce the undesirable pitch and roll responses as well as chattering elimination. The Lyapunov theory is adopted to guarantee the closed stability of the pitch-roll system. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the control scheme. Finally, the control goals of state convergences and chattering reduction are effectively realized through the proposed control synthesis.
