It is important to determine the exact soot mass in a DPF system in order to control the timing of PM regeneration. The soot mass accumulated in a filter can be estimated from the pressure drop in the filter and the exhaust gas flow rates. In this study, the soot index is defined as the pressure drop in the DPF divided by the pressure drop in a DOC. An effective signal processing method for determining the soot index is proposed; the results yielded by this method indicate good correlation between the soot index and the amount of soot loaded into the filter for both steady-state and transient-state operating conditions in a 3L diesel engine for passenger vehicles.

The effects of sulfur on the catalytic reaction between CO and NO on polycrystalline Pt surface, which is very important in the development of catalyst for automobile exhaust gas control, have been studied using thermal desorption spectrometry(TDS) under ultra-high vacuum(UHV) conditions. Sulfur weakened both the adsorptions of CO and NO by direct site blocking and indirect electronic effect. S(a) desorbing below 800 K gave little effect on reaction activity whereas S(a) desorbing above 800 K, which adsorbs as an atomic state, gave much effect on it. The adsorbed sulfur existed on the surface of platinum in the form of islands, and also reduced the adsorption energies of adsorbates by the long-ranged electronic effect. The platinum catalyst in the reaction between CO and NO was poisoned selectively by S(a), poisoning firstly the active sites of this reaction.

The catalytic reaction between CO and NO on polycrystalline Pt surface, which is very important in the development of catalyst for automobile exhaust gas control, has been studied using thermal desorption spectrometry(TDS) and steady-state experiment under ultra-high vacuum(UHV) conditions. With the pressures of CO and NO of each $1{\times}10^{-7}Torr$, the $CO_2$ formation rate showed a maximum at 560K. At the reaction temperature of 560K and the NO pressure of $1{\times}10^{-7}Torr$, the production of $CO_2$ was first order in $CO_2$ was first order in CO pressure below $1.35{\times}10^{-7}Torr$ of CO pressure whereas at higher CO pressures the rate became minus 0.3 order in CO. But the efforts of reactant pressure on the reaction was understood in consideration of the surface concentrations of adsorbates. With the results, we proposed a new reaction mechanism for this reaction.

The bicycle use activation plan reduces a greenhouse gas exhaust, and economic convenience, movement timely shortening, health effect will be able to expect but the bicycle user is few. The nationwide bicycle road projects is advanced by the countermeasure for a bicycle use activation. It is advanced a bicycle road basic plan even from each local government. The research against a route selection is advanced actively. But the research against a data process is not coming out the accurate research method. It follows a financial one bicycle road design standard from ministry of land, Transport and maritime affairs. But vertical grade in bicycle road design standard is exception becoming that about unavoidable case with geomorphic environments. From the research which it sees the existing bicycle road consider should have to make the terrain situation of yeosu, slope standard connection about under considering it presented the bicycle road route selection which is possible. It included a lane and road width with additional element and establishment in the bicycle road was produced suitable bicycle road route. The area where the mountain district is many when selecting bicycle road, will be used with application plan of slope standard.

To assess the soil quality of Chonan City, soil analyses were conducted according to the 14 different sampling sites. The soil pH of the agricultural area near the expressway was lower than that of the other farming area, which indicated that this acidification was probably attributed to the acid rain caused by the traffic exhaust gas such as SOx and NOx. Acidification was more severe in the dry farming area than in the rice paddy area. All concentration of 6 different heavy metals (As, Cu, Cd, $Cr^{6+}$, Hg, Pb) and organic contaminants (cyanide, organic-p, PCBs, phenols) were found to be lower than the standard of soil pollution. The concentration of BTEX also lower than the standard of soil pollution. An assessment using the SPI (Soil Pollution Index). which was developed to estimate an overall soil quality, was performed. Each SPC (Soil Pollution Score) were evaluated with the results of the data from this study. The soil quality of most area of Chonan City was determined to Class 1 , which indicated that the soil was healthy.

The high temperature occurs due to the combustion gas from engine in unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV). The high temperature may cause serious damages in UAV structure. The Functionally Graded Material (FGM) is chosen as a candidate material of the engine duct structure. A functionally graded material (FGM) is a two- component mixture composed by compositional gradient materials from one material to the other. In contrast, traditional composite materials are homogeneous mixtures, and involve compositions between the desirable properties of the component materials. Since significant proportions of an FGM contain the pure form of each material, the need for compromise is eliminated. The properties of both components can be fully utilized. Thermal stress analysis of FGM layers (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100) is performed in this paper. In addition, the creep behavior of FGM applied in duct structure of an engine is analyzed for better understanding of FGM characteristics.

TiAl intermetallic compound was candidated for the application to the high temperature materials such as a gas turbine exhaust valve in the automobile. However, this material dose not have ductility allowing to machinability to product. To improve the ductility, many researches conduct alloy design and heat treatment methods. We observed that the microstructure of TiAl varied with Ni, Mn elements as well as a heat treatment condition. In the case of Ni element addition, the TiAlNi intermetallic compound was precipitated at the grain boundary. When the heat treatment temperature increased from $1000^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$, the TiAlNi intermetallic compound was uniformly dispersed on the matrix. In the case of Mn element addition, the mixed duplex structure of ${\gamma}$-TiAl and lamellar(TiAl/$Ti_3Al$) was obtained with $1250^{\circ}C$ and $1300^{\circ}C$ heat treatment for 1 hour. When the heat treatment temperature increased from $1250^{\circ}C$ to $1300^{\circ}C$, the lamellar domain of the duplex structure was transformed near-lamellar structure.

In order to meet the recently enhanced emission standards at home and abroad, it is necessary to develop the CRDI ECU control algorithm that users can adjust fuel injection timing and amount in response to their needs. Therefore, this study developed the simulator for knocking analysis that enables knocking discrimination and engine balance correction applicable to the ECU exclusive to the industrial CRDI engine. The purpose of this study is to provide the driver-oriented diagnostic service that enable drivers to diagnose vehicles directly by developing diagnostic devices for vehicles with ths use of the results of the developed simulator for knocing analysis according to the OBD-II standards. For this purpose, this study aims to improve the fuel efficiency of vehicles by proposing the S/W design method of the OBD-II diagnosis device that can provide real-time communcations with the use of wired system and bluetooth module as a wireless system to send and recevice automobile fault diagnosis signal and sensor output signal, and to suggest an improvement for engine efficiency by minimizing the generation of harmful exhaust gas.

In diesel engines, accurate EGR control is important due to its effect on nitrogen oxide and particulate matter emissions. Conventional EGR control system comprises a PI feedback controller for tracking target air mass flow and a feedforward controller for fast response. Physically, the EGR flow is affected by EGR valve lift and thermodynamic properties of the EGR path, such as pressures and temperatures. However, the conventional feedforward control output is indirectly derived from engine operating conditions, such as engine rotational speed and fuel injection quantity. Accordingly, the conventional feedforward control action counteracts the feedback controller in certain operating conditions. In order to improve this disadvantage, in this study, we proposed feedforward EGR control algorithm based on a physical model of the EGR system. The proposed EGR control strategy was validated with a 3.0 liter common rail direct injection diesel engine equipped with a DC motor type EGR valve.
