When trains run over a snow-covered track at high speed, the snow accereted under car bodies may drop during train running. The dropped snow lumps scatter the ballast on the track damaging the car body and the environment along the track in snowy regions. In this study, various countermeasures to prevent the ballast from scattering has been investigated and compared. Furthermore, the implementation of the ballast-flying prevention methods to passing-by station has been examined through which the KTX train passes about 300km/h speed.

To investigate the mechanism of ballast-flying phenomena by strong wind induced by high-speed trains, wind velocity in the vicinity of the track has been measured using 16-channel Kiel-probe array and detailed flow structure near the surface of the track has been analyzed. The position at which the underflow fully develop has been examined in order to assess the driving force of the turbulent flow under train and the results yields that the turbulent flow owing to the cavity of the inter-car as well as the friction force at the underbody of the train is the main reason of the strong wind under high-speed train. The preceding wind tunnel test results has been introduced to assess the probability of ballast-flying during the passage of the high-speed train by comparing the results from field-measuring. The results shows that when the G7 train as well as the KTX train runs at 300km/h, about 25m/s wind gust is induced just above the tie and the probability for small ballast under 50g to fly is about 50% when it is on the tie. If the G7 train runs at 350km/h, the wind gust just above the tie increases to 30m/s, therefore more radical countermeasure seems to be needed.

The MPI CyberMotion Simulator provides a unique motion platform, as it features an anthropomorphic robot with a large workspace, combined with an actuated cabin and a linear track for lateral movement. This paper introduces the simulator as a tool for studying human perception, and compares its characteristics to conventional Stewart platforms. Furthermore, an experimental evaluation is presented in which multimodal human control behavior is studied by identifying the visual and vestibular responses of participants in a roll-lateral helicopter hover task. The results show that the simulator motion allows participants to increase tracking performance by changing their control strategy, shifting from reliance on visual error perception to reliance on simulator motion cues. The MPI CyberMotion Simulator has proven to be a state-of-the-art motion simulator for psychophysical research to study humans with various experimental paradigms, ranging from passive perception experiments to active control tasks, such as driving a car or flying a helicopter.

The current development trend and status of a personal air vehicle, known as the novel concept of a transportation that combines a personal car with a light general aviation aircraft, is summarized to investigate its feasibility as a future transportation. In the paper, the development programs of a personal air vehicle such as AGATE, PAVE, SATS and NGATS are first summarized, and then the design, technical development and testing activities of Terrafugia's Transition and Moller International's M400 Skycar, which will be commercialized in a short time, are reviewed. Based on the assessment of technical issues with those vehicles, the key technologies for the future development of the personal air vehicle are suggested with two basic requirements of safety and mobility.

Networking services based on the flying drones may cause many handover events because the coverage radius is narrower than that of the existing infrastructure, such as cellular networks. Therefore, it copes with frequent handover by pre-caching data to target network provider before handover using a content store. As a result of the simulation, it can be confirmed that the delay is lowered. This is because the data that was requested before the handover is delivered to the target drones, and the car that has completed the handover receives the data through the target drones. On the other hand, if the proposed method is not used, it can be confirmed that the delay is increased. This is because it can not cope with the path change due to the handover and re-sends the packet requesting the data.
