This paper is concerned with the robustness evaluations of the guidance controller for a bimodal tram which is being developed by the Korea Railroad Research Institute (KRRI). The bimodal tram is an all-wheel steered multiple-articulated vehicle as a new kind of transportation vehicle. This vehicle has to be equipped with an automatic guidance system. In [1], such a controller has been recently proposed. However, since the performance is affected by weight change of the vehicle due to number of the passenger, model parameter uncertainties depending on the state of friction and the elasticity of the tire, and a typhoon, the controller designed must be examined with these conditions. As expected, because the vehicle dynamics is highly nonlinear, for the sake of investigating the robustness of the controller we compose two simulation ways based on the vehicle models which are implemented by the ADAMS and the MATLAB/LabVIEW toolboxes. Different uncertainties and a typhoon disturbance have been considered for the simulation conditions. Simulation results are shown.

Widespread commercialization of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) is expected to be realized in various application fields with the advent of cost-effective fabrication of cells and stacks in high volumes. Cost-reduction efforts have focused on production yield, power density, operation temperature, and continuous manufacturing. In this article, we examine several issues associated with processing for SOFCs from the standpoint of the bimodal packing model, considering the external constraints imposed by rigid substrates. Optimum compositions of composite cathode materials with high volume fractions of the second phase (particles dispersed in matrix) have been analyzed using the bimodal packing model. Constrained sintering of thin electrolyte layers is also discussed in terms of bimodal packing, with emphasis on the clustering of dispersed particles during anisotropic shrinkage. Finally, the structural transition of dispersed particle clusters during constrained sintering has been correlated with the structural stability of thin-film electrolyte layers deposited on porous solid substrates.

음성인식 시스템과 입술독해 시스템을 결합한 하여 음향학적 잡음에 대하여 안정된 성능을 갖는 바이모달(bimodal) 시스템을 구현한다. 바이모달 시스템의 성능은 두 인식 시스템의 성능뿐만 아니라 입력 신호의 끝점검출 성능에도 크게 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서는 음성신호와 영상신호에서 끝점을 자각 자동 검출하여 입력 음성신호로부터 음성신호에서 추정한 신호대잡음비(signal-to-noise ratio: SNR)로 두 끝점검출 결과를 선택하는 방법을 제안한다. 즉 낮은 SNR에서는 영상신호로부터 검출된 끝점을 선택하고 높은 SNR에서는 음성신호로부터 검출된 끝점을 선택함으로써 음향학적 잡음에 대하여 견실하게 끝점을 검출한다. 제안한 끝점검출 방법이 적용된 바이모달 시스템이 강한 음향학적 잡음에 대하여 만족스러운 인식성능을 나타냄을 실험견과에서 확인할 수 있다.

With unexpected torrential rainfall, flash flooding is occurring frequently and its impacts are tremendous. Thus proper natural disaster management plans are required. The disaster management system of the Bimodal tram utilizes the SWMM as a core engine to simulate runoff and urban sewer networks for flooding simulation. To develop the efficient Bimodal tram disaster management system, very detailed subcatchment boundaries and flow networks have to be developed in a GIS data format. Thus the objective of this study is to develop ArcView GIS based module (AV2SWMM) for easy preparation of model input for the tram disaster management system. With the AV2SWMM module, very detailed subcatchment boundaries and flow networks can be developed for accurate simulation of flash flooding at the study site, which were not/hardly possible with SWMM 5.0 interface. The AV2SWMM can be used in developing accurate model input for other regions where the Bimodal tram system is expected to be introduced.

Since tram has the advantages to reduce construction cost of infrastructure, to improve accessibility of passengers, and to offer visual pleasures, nowadays, it is one of light rails attracting public attention. Tram can be classified into two groups, one is a conventional steel-wheeled type, and the other is a rubber-tired type (bi-modal tram). The bi-modal tram propelled by the serial CNG hybrid propulsion unit has been developing since 2003 in Korea, which can realize both scheduled operation of railway and route flexibility of bus. Because the bimodal will be operated on both railway mode and bus mode, however, specific criteria and regulations for its design, certification, construction, operation and maintenance have not been determined definitely yet. In consideration of mobility enhancement for the old and the handicapped, motor vehicle safety standard and urban transit (railway vehicle) safety standard, several design specifications were proposed for car body and interiors of the bimodal tram vehicle. The design specifications proposed in this paper can be expected to promote passengers' comfort and safety, operation efficiency of the bimodal tram.

최근 도입 논의가 활발히 이루어지고 있는 바이모달 트램은 버스와 경량전철의 중간 규모의 수요에 대하여 정시성, 효율성, 편리성을 갖춘 대중교통시스템으로 주목받고 있다. 특히 철도와 같이 물리적으로 분리된 전용로상에서 제어시스템과 운영시스템을 갖춰 운영할 수 있고, 일반도로에서도 버스와 같이 운영할 수 있는 장점이 있으나, 철도와 도로교통 관련 법령에서 정의되지 않고, 건설비에 대한 재정지원근 거가 없어 구체적인 도입계획이 수립되지 못하고 있다. 본 연구는 바이모달 트램 도입 활성화를 위한 제도 구축을 위하여 다음과 같은 분석을 수행하였다. 1) 바이모달 트램 도입 추진 현황을 파악하여 도입 활성화의 장애요소를 파악하고, 2) 바이모달 트램과 타 교통수단과의 특성 및 관련제도 분석을 통해 제도화에 필요한 요소를 파악하며, 3) 해외의 제도 사례를 통해 국내 도입 활성화에 필요한 제도적 필요 요소률 분석하였다.

In this study, the first and second electronically controlled cooling systems for a bimodal tram were developed. The performance characteristics of the cooling systems were assessed experimentally with actual and identical conditions, and a simulation was run using ANSYS Fluent. The results of the experimental and FEA method were standardized. In order to confirm the reliability of the experimental method, the experiment was carried out by a testing institution. The low-volume flow-rate condition was found to be better, but the cooling system performed in a minimal condition. Therefore, it is important to find the optimum performance levels. The cooling system equipment was revised to determine the optimized design parameters, after which the cooling performance levels increased at the radiation area. Specifically, with a greater fan diameter. Through this study, the newly developed cooling system will be reevaluated after being mounted on an actual bimodal tram. This will lead to a completely domestically produced bi-modal tram cooling system.
