PURPOSES : Previous Speed Profile reflects the patterns of speeds in sections of tangents to curves in the roads. However these patterns are uniform of speeds and Acceleration/Deceleration. In oder to supplement these shortcomings. this study made a new profile which can contain factors of Acceleration/Deceleration through theories of Previous Speed Profiles. METHODS : For sakes, this study developed the speed prediction model of Rural Multi-Lane Highways and calculated Acceleration/Deceleration by appling a Polynomial model based on developed speed prediction model. Polynomial model is based on second by second. Acceleration/Deceleration Profile is developed with the various scenarios of road geometric conditions. RESULTS : The longer an ahead tangent length is, The higher an acceleration rate in curve occurs due to wide sight distance. However when there are big speed gaps between two curves, the longer tangent length alleviate acceleration rate. CONCLUSIONS : Acceleration/Deceleration Profile can overview th patterns of speeds and Accelerations/Decelerations in the various road geometric conditions. Also this result will help road designer have a proper guidance to exam a potential geometric conditions where may occur the acceleration/deceleration states.

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.

PURPOSES: To analyze the specific factors of drivers behaviors that amount of cause the greenhouse gas emissions per vehicle. METHODS: Drivers behaviors at intersections are analyzed on the conditions of acceleration and deceleration. RESULTS : First, it is resulted greenhouse gas emissions per vehicle is produced more at intersections than at the main lines of highway. Second, it is resulted that the average speed, the average acceleration rate and the maximum speed are three major factors to produce greenhouse gas per vehicle in acceleration sections. Third, it is resulted that rapid deceleration 20m before entering intersections is the major factor to produce greenhouse gas per vehicle in deceleration sections. CONCLUSIONS: At intersections, sudden acceleration and deceleration is not good for greenhouse gas emissions. Thus, and the average speed, the average acceleration rate and the maximum speed are the chosen as factors to be controlled for drivers' behavior to reduce vehicles' greenhouse gas at intersections.

The tapping is machining process that makes a female screw on the parts to be assembly together. It is used for the high-speed tapping machine with synchronizing function for the high productivity. This paper describes the development of the ultra high-speed tapping machine with 10,000rpm. The key factors in the tapping speed are the acceleration/deceleration velocity and the synchronizing errors between the spindle motor and feeding motor. To minimizing acceleration/deceleration time, the low inertia spindle with synchronous built-in servo motor is developed. To minimizing synchronizing errors, the tapping cycle algorithm under open architecture CNC environment is optimized. The developed tapping machine has 0.13sec/10,000rpm in acceleration/deceleration time and the synchronizing error below 4.0%. It has 0.55sec for cycle time of one female screw, M3 tap, 2 times depth of tap diameter.

If a wind speed decreases during inertial control of a wind turbine generator (WTG), the rotor speed might decrease below the minimum operating limit, which is called over-deceleration (OD). When OD occurs, inertial control should be disabled and then the output power of a WTG significantly decreases. This significant power reduction causes a subsequent frequency drop. This paper proposes the stepwise inertial control to prevent OD when a wind speed decreases during inertial control. To do this, the proposed scheme changes the additional power output based on the rotor speed. The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated using an EMTP-RV simulator. The results show that the proposed inertial control scheme prevent OD even when the wind speed decreases during inertial control.

Tapping is a machining process that makes a female screw on parts to be assembly together. Recently, as the number of small and compact products increases the radius of tap as small as 1 mm is not unusual and more accurate tapping is needed. In complying with those needs, some high-speed tapping machines with synchronizing function have been developed. This paper describes the development of an ultra high-speed tapping machine up to 10,000rpm. The key factors in the tapping speed are the acceleration/deceleration and the synchronizing errors between spindle motor and fred motor. To minimize the acceleration/deceleration time, a low inertia spindle with a synchronous built-in servo motor was developed. To minimize the synchronizing errors, the tapping cycle algorithm was optimized on an open architecture CNC. The developed tapping machine has the acceleration/deceleration time of 0.13sec/10,000rpm for rigid tapping and the synchronizing error below 4.4%. The cycle time for tapping a female screw of M3 and depth 2 times diameter was 0.55sec.

This paper describes action of synchronous error between z axis and spindle axis on rigid tapping. Because rigid tapping cuts the threads synchronizing the movement of z axis to spindle rotation, synchronous error between z axis and spindle is very important. Increase of synchronous error degrades the accuracy of thread and crushes the tap in worst case. So we developed the realtime measurement system of synchronous error in order to know the action of synchronous error on rigid tapping. In result, we have known that synchronous error was increased according to rise of spindle speed and z axis speed. And because the cutting torque(M3-30Ncm∼M10-300Ncm) on rigid tapping are less than maximum motor torque(3500Ncm), it specially doesn't affect the synchronous error. The most important parameter which has affected the increase of synchronous error was acceleration/deceleration time. On worst case, spindle motor was tripped because of the excess of synchronous error. Because the acceleration/deceleration time ocuupies the most of the total cutting time, in order to move on the high speed rigid tapping, the acceleration/deceleration time of spindle must be remarkably reduced.

Recently may investigations have been studied on the high-speed machining by using machine tools. A CNC machine tool makes some tool path errors caused by software acceleration/deceleration. The faster a cutting feedrate is, the bigger the tool path errors are. Some known methods reduce these kinds of errors, but they make the total cutting time increased. This paper presents a feed-forward algorithm that can be generated by distorting the original tool path, and reduces the tool path errors and the total cutting time. The algorithm to generate a new tool path is represented as following; 1)calculating each distance of software acceleration/deceleration between two adjacent blocks, 2) estimating the distorted distance which is the adjacent-ratio-constant(k1, k2) multiply the distance of software acceleration/deceleration, 3) generating a 3-degree Bezier curve approximating the distorted tool path, 4) symmetrically transforming the Bezier curve about the intersection point between two blocks, and 5) connecting the transformed Bezier curve with the original tool path. The algorithm is applied to FANUC 0M. The study is to promote the high-precision machining and to reduce the total cutting time.

PURPOSES : Ambiguous decision on whether rural or urban area for road design can increase the construction cost and restrict the land use of surrounding area. However, administrative classification on rural and urban area is not directly related to road design because of this classification is not based on the engineering viewpoint, so method which can explain the road design context is required. METHODS : Method which enables to identify the area for road design is suggested based on the deceleration expected to be experienced by drivers who use the road section concerned. Deceleration rate corresponding to the area such as rural or urban suggested in Road Design Guideline is used as the criteria to identify the area by comparing this value with the estimated deceleration rate at the road section concerned. Speed profile method is utilized to derive the deceleration rate, and speed estimation way for reflecting both road geometry and intersection is suggested using stopping sight distance concept. RESULTS : The procedure of the method application is suggested, and the design example utilizing the method is provided. CONCLUSIONS : The method is expected to be used to identify the area for road design with engineering viewpoint, and design consistency among the roads with similar driving environment can be made.
