The evaluation of durability performance in Virtual Testing Laboratory(VTL) is a new concept of vehicle design, which can reduce the automotive design period and cost. In this study, the multibody dynamics model of a car is built with a reverse engineering design. Hard points and masses of components are measured by a surface scanning device and imported into CAD system. In order to simulate the non-linear dynamic behavior of force elements such as dampers and bushes, components and materials are tested with specialized test equipments. An optimized numerical model for the damping behavior is used and the hysteresis of bush rubber is considered in the simulation. Loads of components are calculated in VTL and used in the evaluation of durability performance. In order to verify simulation results, loads of components in the vehicle are measured and durability tests are performed.

The modal characteristics of rotating structures vary with the rotating speed. The material and the geometric properties of the structures as well as the rotating speed influence the variations of their modal characteristics. Very often, the modal characteristics of rotating structures need to be specified at some rotating speeds to meet their design requirements. In this paper, rotating cantilever beam is chosen as a design target structure. Optimization problems are formulated and solved to find the optimal shapes of rotating beams with rectangular cross section.

This study is a preview of characteristics of (1st/2nd) rubber suspension parts in low temperature, it will be researched before Trans Korean Railway and continental railway network connection. Rubber material characteristics are different to steel materials. Behavior of rubber material shows large deformation in hyper-elastic region. Moreover, added dashpot and low temperature condition shows various non-linear characteristics.

In high speed turbopumps, cavitation occurs and often causes the flow instabilities such as cavitation surge and rotating cavitation. The occurrence of these cavitation instabilities is considered to relate to dynamic characteristics of the cavitation, which are modelled using a cavitation compliance and a mass flow gain factor. Various types of cavitation such as a blade surface cavitation, a tip leakage vortex cavitation, and a backflow vortex cavitation occur at the same time in the inducer and the dynamic characteristics of each cavitation have not been clarified yet in experiments. Focusing on the blade surface cavitation as one of fundamental cavitation, we investigated the dynamic characteristics of the blade surface cavitation on a flat plate hydrofoil in experiments in the present study.

This paper presents characteristics analysis of brushless DC motor(BLDCM) which driven by two types of PWM mode. The phase current and torque ripples are generated differently at each PWM mode. So they have a different influence on motor characteristics. In this paper, we have analyzed characteristics of BLDCM using time-stepped voltage source finite element method. The effect of two types of PWM mode had been confirmed by comparing each phase current and torque ripple waveform. The compared simulation result is useful to select a better PWM mode.

In this work, a new type of MR damper with additional flow path in piston is proposed and damping force characteristics are numerically evaluated. Flow-mode type MR damper is considered and mathematical model is established based on Bingham rheological model of MR fluid to obtain accurate prediction of damping force characteristics. Damping force of the proposed MR damper are calculated with respect to piston velocity and input current. In addition, investigation on damping force characteristics is carried out according to number of additional flow path and excellence of the proposed MR damper is demonstrated.

We have investigated the latchup characteristics of BL/BILLI retrograde twin well CMOS that has the high energy ion implanted buried layer to intend for more improvement of latchup compare to conventional retrograde well and BILLI structures. We explored the dependence of various latchup characteristics such as n+ trigger latchup and p+ trigger latchup on the buried layer implant doses. We show various DC latchup characteristics that allow us to evaluate each technology and suggest guidelines for the reduction of latchup susceptibility.

The purpose of this work is to analyze the effect of structure parameter disturbance on the dynamic characteristics of a hydropower station powerhouse. A vibration model with a head-cover system is established, and then the general disturbance problem analysis methods are discussed. Two new formulae based on two types of disturbances are developed from existing methods. The correctness and feasibility of these two formulae are validated by analyzing the hydropower station powerhouse vibration model. The appropriate calculation method for disturbance of the hydropower station powerhouse vibration dynamic characteristics is derived.

Five parts of vehicle upholsteries were sampled to determine its combustion characteristics. Oxygen Indexer, Smoke chamber, Differential Scanning Calorimetry(DSC) are applied as the analysis apparatus. All LOI values of samples appear less than 21. The combustion phenomena of vehicle upholster primarily depends on properties of each layer material. The amount of smoke generated is the experiment reached the maximum value within 30-90sec after ignition. The experimental results of combustion characteristics and DSC of H/Line also indicated that the layer of foam was melt first and it caused the propagation of flame through the sample. The combustion characteristics of multi layer materials primarily depend on thermal characteristic of single layer material.

This paper deals with the effect of student characteristics from a case study on the different teaching evaluation scores under the same conditions of professor and course characteristics. In particular, focusing the evaluation score gabs caused by different course achievements of two classes, we can analyze the influence of the student characteristics and interpret the meaning. This case study shows that the student characteristics can lead out a distinct difference in the teaching evaluation scores under the most factors related to professors and courses are controlled, In conclusion, this case study could be appropriately used to support the interpretation of the student characteristic hypothesis among several hypotheses about the meaning of correlations between student achievement and teaching evaluation.
