This paper presents a geometrical error analysis of wheel curve generation method for micro aspheric surface machining using parallel grinding method. In aspheric grinding, wheel wear in process is crucial parameter for profile error of the ground surface. To decrease wheel weal parallel grinding method is adopted. Wheel and work piece (Tungsten carbide) contact point changes during machining process. In truing process of the wheel radius is determined by the angle and distance between wheel and truer. Wheel radius error is predominantly affected by vertical deviation between the wheel rotation center and the truer center Simulation for vertical error and wheel radius error shows same tendency that expected by geometrical analysis. Experimental results show that the analysis of curve generation method matches with simulations and wheel radius errors.

Understanding driver's characteristic of visual activity is important process because driver depends on a visual signal more than 90% for getting outside information needed to drive, thus a series of driving, including perception, judgement, and activity, is completed. This study analyzes quantified driver's sight range in curved section where recognition of various information is critical due to biggest speed change among sections. Simulation is utilized for this study because of safety problem on field experiment and difficulties in using equipment. Building 6 roads that have different in curve radius by virtual driving map, experiment is carried out recruiting 30 people. Through analytical researches, it shows that drivers keep an eye on direction of driving, and driver's visual range is narrowed on left curve than right curve, and the more curve radius become small, the more drivers see in narrow angle.

Determination of stress-strain relationship in torsional tests is complicated due to nonuniform stress-strain variation occurring linearly with the radius in a soil specimen in torsion. The equivalent radius approach is adequate when calculating strain at low to intermediate strains, however, the approach is less accurate when performing the test at higher strain levels. The modified equivalent radius approach was developed to account for the problem more precisely. This approach was extended to generate the plots of equivalent radius ratio versus strain using modified hyperbolic and Ramberg-Osgood models. Results showed the effects of soil nonlinearity on the equivalent radius ratio curves were observed. Curve fitting was also performed to find the stress-strain relationship by fitting the theoretical torque-rotation relationship to measured torque-rotation relationship.

It is found that there are many serious errors in deriving the existing governing equations of motion for a wheel-axle set negotiating an arbitrarily changing radius curve by Vijay K. Garg and Rao V. Dukkipati. Among other things, despite the hypothesis on arbitrarily changing radius of curve, there had been no taking a time derivative of the radius R in the first half of the derivation. Even if the D'lambert force arising from the centrifugal acceleration of vehicle body or bogie was appropriately taken into account while calculating cant deficiency, it is unnecessarily duplicated in the force vectors of governing equations. The graphical model given in Fig. 5.15 is not enough to follow those developed expressions from both physical and structural points of view. Besides, there are some blunders in assigning plus or minus sign not to be regarded as simple typographic ones and similar mistakes are committed in deriving creep force expressions as in the case of a wheel-axle set on a tangent track.

도로의 곡선부는 운전자의 시각변화가 현격하게 발생하여 속도편차가 크게 나타나며, 다양한 원인에 의해 직선부 보다 위험도가 더 큰 것으로 파악된다. 특히, 야간 또는 기상악화로 인한 시선유도시설의 시인성 마비는 도로선형에 대한 정보를 왜곡시켜 운전자의 안전을 위협할 뿐만 아니라, 주행속도에 영향을 미쳐 사고위험도를 증가시키게 된다. 이에 운전자의 시인성을 향상시킬 수 있는 시선유도시설물의 설치 및 관리가 절실히 요구된다. 본 연구는 곡선부에 기 설치 운영 중인 재귀반사식 시선유도시설과 도로안전을 향상시키기 위해 개발된 내부조명식 시선유도시설을 대상으로 설문조사와 주행실험을 실시하였다. 그 결과, 재귀반사식 보다 내부조명식 시선유도시설에서 시인성, 속도감속 필요성, 안전성에 대한 효과가 큰 것으로 분석되었다. 또한, 내부조명식 시선유도시설이 설치된 곡선부를 진입할 경우 주행차량의 완만한 속도감속으로 인해 주행 안전성을 확보하는 것으로 분석되었다. 결과적으로, 내부조명식 곡선부 시선유도시설은 기존 재귀반사식 시선유도시설에 비해 운전자에게 도로선형에 대한 정보를 더욱 효과적으로 제공함으로써, 곡선부 교통사고 위험도를 줄일 수 있으며, 도로 곡선부 구간의 교통안전 개선대안으로 이용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

곡선선로의 주행 속도를 향상하기 위한 가장 효과적인 방안은 차량성능 개선과 곡선 반경 증가이나, 많은 비용이 필요하므로 일반적으로 궤도 강화, 캔트량 변경의 방법을 적용한다. 본 논문은 기존선에 부설된 작은 반경의 곡선구간에서 효과적으로 주행속도를 향상하는 방법에 대한 연구이다. 연구방법으로 국내외 기준에 의한 곡선 반경별 주행속도 향상 한계치를 규정하고, 기 부설된 곡선을 변경하는 몇 가지 방안을 정립하여 완화곡선 연장 길이와 수평방향 이동량, 허용속도를 산정하였다. 그 결과 방법이 같으면 곡선반경이 커질수록 완화곡선 연장, 수평방향 이동량이 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 완화곡선 연장 증가치는 원곡선 반경을 고정하여 연장하는 방법이 가장 적고, 수평방향 이동량은 원곡선 반경 고정하고 사인반파장으로 변경하는 방법이 가장 적은 것으로 분석되었다. 향상된 주행속도를 경부선에 적용한 결과 원곡선 반경은 고정하고 완화곡선을 사인반파장으로 변경시 자갈도상 9.4%, 콘크리트도상 11.6%의 시간 단축과 표정속도 상승효과가 확인되었다. 기존선 주행속도 향상을 위한 우수한 방법은 완화곡선을 사인반파장으로 변경하는 C법이나, 평면 비틀림이 커져 유지보수가 불리해 지므로 도상을 콘크리트로 변경하면 효과적으로 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

Mass and radius of a neutron star in low-mass X-ray binary (LMXB) can be estimated simultaneously when the observed light curve and spectrum show the photospheric radius expansion feature. This method has been applied to 4U 1746-37 and the mass and radius were found to be unusually small in comparison with typical neutron stars. We re-estimate the mass and radius of this target by considering that the observed light curve and spectrum can be affected by other X-ray sources because this LMXB belongs to a very crowded globular cluster NGC 6441. The new estimation increases the mass and radius but they do not reach the typical values yet.

PURPOSES : Traffic safety facilities are used to prevent traffic accidents before they occur by providing drivers with information on traffic situations and the geometric design of roads. However, some facilities not defined in guidelines do not meet installation criteria, yet are being installed and used in order to increase efficiency in traffic flow and prevent traffic accidents in a specific expressway zone. In this study, we have evaluated the effect of delineation system which are not defined in the guideline criteria. METHODS : Different virtual scenarios were created for roads using expressway median barrier chevron signs, with a driving simulator used to evaluate the installation and operational effect of such signs. Ten experiments were performed with left- and right-curved roads at curve radius intervals of 500 m, from 500 m to 2,500 m. RESULTS : For sections with a curve radius of more than 1,500 m, drivers had a clear tendency toward stable driving regardless of delineation system. When a chevron sign is installed on a protection fence in the road curving left, an expanded installation is recommended up to the section with a curve radius of 1,000 m. According to the analysis results for the RHB (Relative High Beta spectrum), driving concentration also improved up to a curve radius of 1,000 m. CONCLUSIONS :The experiment result indicates the extent of biasing within a lane and the manipulation amount of steering handle, were analyzed and found to be affected by curve radius and road alignment regardless of delineation system.

PURPOSES: Recently, many local governments have applied chicanes for traffic calming to ensure environment-friendly comfortable and safe roads. However, the geometry of a chicane is designed for speed reduction using a curved portion. This study aims to improve the road geometry conditions of chicanes for reducing carbon emissions and maintaining appropriate driving speeds by considering the relationship between road geometry and carbon emissions. METHODS: This study was conducted as follows. First, carbon emissions corresponding to changing acceleration of vehicles were studied. Second, vehicle acceleration caused by the relationship between the curve radius and the straight length was studied. Accordingly, desirable conditions of curve radius and length of the straight section for reducing carbon emissions were proposed. RESULTS: The existing literature on chicanes present the minimum value of stagger length and path angle in the primary variable condition. This study suggests the maximum values of the curve radius and length of straight section in the primary variable condition. Therefore, if a vehicle's speed at a chicane is 30 km/h, this study suggests a curve radius of up to 24 m. In addition, if the vehicle's speed is 24 km/h, this study suggests a length of straight section of up to 6.6 m. These are the geometric conditions for considering the control of acceleration to the vehicle's maximum speed. CONCLUSIONS: This paper proposes an application of geometric conditions to reduce carbon emissions and maintain appropriate speeds of vehicles through a combination of curve radius and length of straight section.
