The usage of electric-powered components consisting of several electrical and mechanical parts is continuously increasing in automobiles. Therefore, continuous assessment of the reliability and quality of these electric-powered parts is crucial. In this study, a noise and vibration measurement system for testing and evaluating the different electric-powered parts of automobiles was designed. Further, an FFT analysis was performed on some electric-powered steering assembly test equipment. In the FFT analysis of the noise and vibration signals for each essential fault part, the vibration FFT analysis was significantly compared with the noise analysis. The results showed that the vibration FFT analysis was more effective in determining the reliability and quality of the electric-powered parts.

Vibration of electric-powered hand grinder comes from the parts of motor, gear, bearing, and fan. Excessive vibration can be harmful to workers. To reduce vibration of a hand grinder we analyzed the frequency components from the routing electric-powered grinder and did modal test to find the natural frequencies of the each part. It shows that the vibration is due to the resonance of the case. To remove the resonance, the case structure is modified and the bearing cap is replaced on a basis of the results from the rotor dynamic analysis using SAMCEF. As a result the vibration of the hand grinder is reduced greatly.

With respect to a given structure, a stray current is to be defined as a current flowing on a structure that is not part of the intended electrical circuit. Most often DC-powered traction systems like railroads and tramlines are responsible for large dynamic stray currents. This type of stray current is generally results from the leakage of return currents from large DC traction systems that are grounded or have a bad earth-insulated return path. At the place where the current leaves the rail and metallic structures, electrolytic corrosion may take place. This paper investigates the domestic conditions on the electrolytic corrosion protection of buried metallic structures adjacent to DC traction systems by survey.

An eVTOL aircraft, which is required to operate with low pollution/low noise in urban environments, mostly use battery-powered electric propulsion systems as power sources, not traditional propulsion systems such as reciprocating or turbine engines. Accordingly, certification preparation for the electric propulsion system and securing the safety of the electric propulsion system, are important issues. In the U.S., special technical standards equivalent to FAR Part 33 were issued to certify electric engines, and in Europe, various special conditions were established to certify electric propulsion systems. Thus, in Korea, the technical standards for the electric propulsion system for eVTOL aircraft must also be prepared in line with the U.S. and Europe. In this paper, SC E-19, the technical standard of the electric/hybrid propulsion system (EHPS) in special conditions, was analyzed. Additionally, securing the safety of the electric propulsion system of the aircraft are proposed, through the collaboration of SC E-19 technical standards with the existing aircraft safety evaluation procedure ARP 4761. Finally, through a case study of the Ehang 184 electric propulsion system, it has been confirmed that the proposed safety assurance method is applicable at the aircraft level.

The aging and declining agricultural population in the modern society requires improvement of the agricultural environment and is one of the representative problems. And since most of the work systems always require a transport work, the ratio of labor consumed in the transport work is very high. Accordingly, many types of transport vehicles are being developed and sold, and in the early days, most of them are powered transport vehicles using fossil fuels. However, it is paying attention to next-generation eco-friendly energy such as hydrogen, fuel cells, solar power, and bio due to the strengthening of international environmental regulations such as global warming and the Convention on Climate Change and the depletion of fossil fuels. Therefore, in this study, the ultimate goal is to develop an eco-friendly, easy-to-operate, safe agricultural electric vehicle that replaces fossil fuels. It was designed with a focus on controlling a wide range of vehicle speeds and securing stability of electric agricultural vehicles. Considering the performance and design, it is composed of a frame, a driving part, a steering part, and a controller system, and we are going to review and manufacture each part. It is believed that the manufactured electric vehicle for agriculture can be easily and conveniently operated in an agricultural society where young manpower is scarce, and can be helpful to the agricultural society through high efficiency.

Some major companies representing Korea's ship building actively take part in building Oil & Gas offshore which produces both oil and gas from the ocean. Merchant ships become enlarge and high-powered electric as well as increasing number of Oil & Gas offshore. Thus, maritime university cadets are pushed to participate in onboard training on 440V to 6,660V high voltage ships. Although they have difficulty and danger from onboard training course on high voltage ships, their curriculum is still focusing on the training on low voltage ships. Therefore, this study is to suggest the upcoming education measures based on the questionnaire survey and analysis from the Maritime cadets who had experienced in high voltage ships.

The advances of semiconductor and circuitry technology dovetailed with nano processing techniques have further enhanced micro-miniaturization, sensitivity, longevity and reliability in MID(Medical Implant Device). Nevertheless, one of the remaining challenges is whether power can sufficiently and continuously be supplied for the operation of the MID. Self-powered MID that harvest biomechanical energy from human motion, respiratory and muscle movement are part of a paradigm shift. In this paper, we developed a rechargeable pacemaker through self-power generation with the triboelectric nanogenerator. We demonstrate a fully implanted pacemaker based on an implantable triboelectric nanogenerator, which act as a storage as well as active movement on a large-animal(dog) scale. The self-power pacemaker harvested from animal motion is 2.47V, which is higher than the required pacemaker device sensing voltage(1.35V).
