A fuzzy driver model based on a preview-predictor and yaw rate is developed. The model is used to investigate the handling performance of two wheel steering system(2WS) and four wheel steering system(4WS) vehicles. The two degree-of- freedom model which has yaw and lateral motion predicts the path of the vehicles. Based upon the yaw rate and lateral deviations, the fuzzy engine describes the human driver's complicated control behavior which is adjusted for the driving environment. Both typical single lane change maneuver and double lane change maneuver are adopted to demonstrate the feasibility of fuzzy driver model.

In order to understand the relationship between the phase angle of piston ring and oil consumption was measured by analyzing $CO_2$concentration in exhaust gas. The use of hydrogen fuel not gasoline makes this possible because all of the carbon component in exhaust gas can be assumed to be produced from oil. As a result of experiment, it is known that the oil consumption varies periodically and a specific location of ring end gap was found at each peak of oil consumption. Therefore, it was found that the oil consumption was not constant even at the same operating conditions and this is because the relative locations of top and 2'nd ring end gap change arbitrarily.

A numerical method is proposed to optimize automotive cam profiles. An acceleration curve of a cam follower motion is described by Hermite spline curves. Because of the intrinsic characteristics of the Hermite curve, it is possible to design an acceleration curve with arbitrary shape. Design variables in the optimization problem are location of control points which define the acceleration curve. Objective function includes dynamic performances as well as kinematic properties of a valve train. Similar optimization procedure was also performed using Polydyne cam profile synthesis method. Optimized profiles using the Hermite curve are proved to be superior to those using the Polydyne method.

Dual-fuel engines are being researched with emphasis on the possible types of natural gas supply systems. Hence, a three-dimensional combustion model by using finite volume method was developed to provide a fundamental understanding of the auto-ignition of pilot distillate and subsequent burning of natural gas, when the natural gas as well as the distillate was directly injected into a quiescent diesel engine like combustion bomb tests and the numerical results were investigated for the mixed combustion phenomena. With high-pressure natural gas injection, it was found that the gaseous fuel injection characteristics had to be well harmonised with that of the pilot distillate. For better combustion efficiency, however, further researches are required for the optimisation of injection system in the existence of air motion.

In general, crankshafts which are used in internal combustion reciprocating engines are subjects to high torsional vibration. Therefore, a damper is often used to minimize the torsional vibration in reciprocating engines. In this paper, in order to investigate damping performance of viscous damper, the real effective viscosity and complex damping coefficient of silicone oil, and the effective inertia moment of inertia ring are calculated considering the relative motion between damper casing and inertia ring. Based on these results multi-cylinder shaft is modeled into equivalent 2-degree of freedom system and optimum condition is estimated by calculating the amplification factor of viscous damper. Also the test damper was manufactured according to the result of theoretical investigation, the performance and durability was ascertained through experimental examination.

The original axisymmetric, stationary electrodynamic model of the central engine in an active galactic nucleus proposed by Macdonald and Thorne consists of a supermassive black hole with magnetic field lines that pass through the region just outside the event horizon of the black hole. Each magnetic field line rotates with a constant angular velocity which will exceed the speed of light at large radii. Even though the field lines are purely mathematical entities this condition sets a stringent physical constraint on the motion of the magnetic field lines and the particles on them. In this paper we will show that we can remove this auxiliary constraint in our model by allowing nonstationary processes. As a result the magnetic field lines can be twisted and wound up in a region lying outside of the quasi-stationary magnetosphere of the black hole. We conclude that astrophysical jets are formed in that region due to the twisted and wound magnetic field lines powered by the Blandford-Znajek process and the other driving forces.

An experiment was carried out to confirm the validity of time series evaluation of supersonic mixing condition by using catalytic reaction on a platinum wire. Geseous hydrogen was injected parallel to supersonic freestream (M$\infty$ $\approx$ 1.81) from a slit injector, which was located at backward facing step. Time series condition of supersonic mixing was evaluated by using W-type probe which has a platinum wire and reference wire (nickel wire). The evaluation was by simultaneously measuring each electric circuit which kept the temperature of wire constant. Investigations were also conducted for helium, air and no secondary injectant cases to compare with the hydrogen injectant case. The results indicated that it was possible to measure the time series behavior of air and hydrogen supersonic mixing layer or coherent motion of turbulence by using this evaluation.

This paper reports the grid resolution issues on the supersonic mixing simulation inside the engine for future aerospace vehicles. Unstructured finite volume method is used for the simulations. Three types of grids are used, namely, hybrid unstructured grids composed of prism and tetrahedron cells, locally refined grids, and hexahedral grids. Hexahedral grids are used to take advantage of fine distribution naturally behind the edge of the ramp where the vortex is generated. These latter two grids show much improved evaluations of the vortex motion and the mixing of the injected and the main flows.

A robust adaptive technique for the longitudinal control of a platoon of automated vehicles is presented. A nonlinear model is used to represent the dynamics of each vehicle within the platoon. The external disturbances such as wind gust and a disturbance term due to engine transmission variations and so on are considered. The state observer is used to avoid direct measurement of the relative velocity or acceleration between the controlled and leading vehicles or the controlled vehicles's acceleration. The proposed controller guarantees to recover platoon stability in operation even if a speed dependent spacing policy is adopted, which incorporates a constant time headway in addition to the constant distance. It is shown that the proposed observer is exponentially stable, and the at the robust adaptive controller is stable. The simulation results demonstrate excellent tracking even in the presence of disturbances.

This paper describes an implementation of a radiocontrolled airplane attitude control. To obtain the model of motion, stabilizing and control coefficients, we derive the related paramaters from aerodynamics, propulsion, gravity, wind correction and atmosphere. In this model, after separating longitudinal axis and lateral axis, we can get longitudinal axis model and lateral axis model by using actuator and dynamic characteristics of engine. From these two models, we experiment two divided parts-linear part, and nonlinear part.
