Purpose: A simulator for the design and performance evaluation of a tractor with a hydro-mechanical transmission (HMT) was developed. Methods: The HMT consists of a hydro-static unit (HSU), a swash plate control system, and a planetary gear. It was modeled considering the input/output relationship of the torque and speed, and efficiency of HSU. Furthermore, a dynamic model of a tractor was developed considering the traction force, running resistance, and PTO (power take off) output power, and a tractor performance simulator was developed in the co-simulation environment of AMESim and MATLAB/Simulink. Results: The behaviors of the design parameters of the HMT tractor in the working and driving modes were investigated as follows; For the stepwise change of the drawbar load in the working mode, the tractor and engine speeds were maintained at the desired values by the engine torque and HSU stroke control. In the driving mode, the tractor followed the desired speed through the control of the engine torque and HSU stroke. In this case, the engine operated near the OOL (optimal operating line) for the minimum fuel consumption within the shift range of HMT. Conclusions: A simulator for the HMT tractor was developed. The simulations were conducted under two operation conditions. It was found that the tractor speed and the engine speed are maintained at the desired values through the control of the engine torque and the HSU stroke.

This study conducts numerical modeling and eigen-analysis of a rod-fastened rotor, which is mainly used in aircraft gas turbine engines in which multiple disks are in contact through curvic coupling. Nayak's theory is adopted to calculate surface parameters measured from the tooth profile of the curvic coupling gear. Surface parameters are important design parameters for predicting the stiffness between contact surfaces. Based on the calculated surface parameters, elastoplastic contact analysis is performed according to the interference between two surfaces based on the Greenwood-Williamson model. The equivalent bending stiffness is predicted based on the shape and elastoplastic contact stiffness of the curvic coupling. An equation of motion of the rod-fastened rotor, including the bending stiffness of the curvic coupling, is developed. Methods for applying the bending stiffness of a curvic coupling to the equation of motion and for modeling the equation of motion of a rotor that includes both inner and outer rotors are introduced. Rotordynamic analysis is performed through one-dimensional finite element analysis, and each element is modeled based on Timoshenko beam theory. Changes in bending stiffness and the resultant critical speed change in accordance with the rod fastening force are predicted, and the corresponding mode shapes are analyzed.

본 논문은 회전익 항공기의 와이퍼 시스템의 설계 개선에 관한 연구이다. 국내 회전익 항공기의 우천환경 운용 시, 와이퍼 닦임 성능 저하 및 떨림 현상이 발생하였다. 와이퍼 시스템은 크게 와이퍼 암 조립체, 전동기, 와이퍼 변환기 조립체, 플랙스 드라이브로 구성되며, 와이퍼 시스템에 문제가 발생하면 우천환경의 작전에 제한사항이 발생하여 작전능력이 감소한다. 이러한 와이퍼 시스템의 문제를 야기한 원인은 크게 2가지로 검토되었으며, 첫번째 사유는 항공기 기동조건에서 와이퍼 암에 작용하는 부상력 때문이며, 두번째는 구성품들의 과다한 유격 때문이다. 이 2가지 문제를 개선하기 위해서 본 연구가 수행되었으며, 4가지의 와이퍼 구성품 중 와이퍼 암을 개선하였다. 개선 내용으로는 와이퍼 암의 누름압(스프링 장력) 증가, 기어 공차 개선, 재질 및 형상 변경이 수행되었다. 개선형상의 검증은 구성품 단위 내구성 시험, 항공기 지상 시험, 비행 시험이 수행되었으며, 설계 개선된 와이퍼 암을 장착하였을 시 닦임 성능 및 유격문제가 해소된 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 닦임성능은 육안으로 확인하였으며, 유격문제는 와이퍼 작동거리를 측정하여 확인하였다. 현재 국내 회전익 항공기는 개선 형상을 적용하여 문제없이 운용하고 있으며, 이러한 설계 개선 과정은 향후 회전익 항공기 개발 시 유용한 참고자료가 될 것이다.

The full nonlinear equations of an unmanned aerial vehicle ground taxiing mathematical dynamic model are built based on a type of unmanned aerial vehicle data in LMS Virtual.Lab Motion. The flexible landing gear model is considered to make the aircraft ground motion more accurate. The electric braking control system is established in MATLAB/Simulink and the experiment of it verifies that the electric braking model with the pressure sensor is fitted well with the actual braking mechanism and it ensures the braking response speediness. The direction rectification control law combining the differential brake and the rudder with 30% anti-skid brake is built to improve the directional stability. Two other rectifying control laws are demonstrated to compare with the designed control law to verify that the designed control is of high directional stability and high braking efficiency. The lateral displacement increases by 445.45% with poor rectification performance under the only rudder rectifying control relative to the designed control law. The braking distance rises by 36m and the braking frequency increases by 85.71% under the control law without anti-skid brake. Different landing conditions are simulated to verify the good robustness of the designed rectifying control.

Purpose: The development of compact tractors that can be used in dry fields, greenhouses, and orchards for pest control, weeding, transportation, and harvesting is necessary. The development and performance evaluation of power transmission units are very important when it comes to tractor development. This study evaluates the performance of a driving power transmission unit of a 50 kW multi-purpose narrow tractor. Methods: The performance of the transmission and forward-reverse clutch, which are the main components of the driving power transmission unit of multi-purpose narrow tractors, was evaluated herein. The transmission performance was evaluated in terms of power transmission efficiency, noise, and axle load, while the forward-reverse clutch performance was evaluated in terms of durability. The transmission's power transmission efficiency accounts for the measurement of transmission losses, which occur in the transmission's gear, bearing, and oil seal. The motor's power was input in the transmission's input shaft. The rotational speed and torque were measured in the final output shaft. The noise was measured at each speed level after installing a microphone on the left, right, and upper sides. The axle load test was performed through a continuous equilibrium load test, in which a constant load was continuously applied. The forward-reverse clutch performance was calculated using the engine torque to axle torque ratio with the assembled engine and transmission. Results: The loss of power in the transmission efficiency test of the driving power unit was 6.0-9.7 kW based on all gear steps. This loss of horsepower was equal to 11-18% of the input power (52 kW). The transmission efficiency of the driving power unit was 81.5-89.0%. The noise of the driving power unit was 50-57 dB at 800 rpm, 70-77 dB at 1600 rpm, and 76-83 dB at 2400 rpm. The axle load test verified that the input torque and axle revolutions were constant. The results of the forward-reverse clutch performance test revealed that hydraulic pressure and torque changes were stably maintained when moving forward or backward, and its operation met the hydraulic design standards. Conclusions: When comprehensively examined, these research results were similar to the main driving power transmission systems from USA and Japan in terms of performance. Based on these results, tractor prototypes are expected to be created and supplied to farmhouses after going through sufficient in-situ adaptability tests.

전기기계식 제동장치(EMB : Electro Mechanical Brake)는 자동차 및 철도차량의 차세대 제동장치로서 현재 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 현재의 고속열차용 제동장치는 공압 실린더를 이용하여 제동 압부력을 발생시키나 전기기계식 제동장치 (EMB)에서는 전기 모터 및 기어와의 조합을 통하여 압부력을 발생시킨다. 본 연구에서는 고압부력 발생이 가능한 EMB 구동 메커니즘을 제안하고, 해당 메커니즘을 만드는 기구장치 중 핵심부품인 기어 및 샤프트 부품들에 대한 구조 및 진동해석을 수행하였다. 한편 모델에 대한 동적 진동해석 결과 압부력이 가해진 상태에서 외부가진이 주어졌을 때 부재의 최대 응력이 항복강도 이내임이 확인되었다. 또한, 구조해석 결과 모터샤프트의 축 직경을 최대한 크게하는 설계가 강도 상 유리함을 확인하였으며, 기어와 편심샤프트를 고정하는 볼트에서 큰 전단응력이 발생할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 한편 해석모델의 메커니즘을 재현할 수 있는 시험장치를 제작하여 가장 취약한 부위인 고정 볼트부의 변형률을 구동 토크가 가해진 상태에서 측정하였다. 변형률 측정결과는 해석결과와 오차가 10% 이내로서, 해석모델의 정확도를 검증할 수 있었다.

한국항공우주연구원에서는 정지궤도위성의 조립 및 시험을 프랑스 아스트리움(Astrium)사와 공동 수행하고 있다. 시험의 일환으로 태양전지판의 상태와 버스에 접속하여 전개 및 그 접속검증 시험을 수행하였다. 저궤도 위성의 경우 기계적 힌지구조로 전체 전개가 이루어지고 전기적 접속 또한 태양 전지판이 생산하는 전력, 태양센서의 신호 등이 전달되는 단순한 구조이나, 정지 궤도 태양전지판의 경우 기계적인 힌지와 전기적인 모터를 통하여 전체 전개가 이루어짐으로서 구동에 필요한 신호 등의 전기적접속이 다양하다. 이에 이를 구동하는 전기적 접속 및 파이로 신호전달 접속을 검증하기 위한 시험형상을 설계하고, 이 시험을 위한 지상지원장비의 구성 및 검증 결과의 특성을 분석하였다.

Recently, there are many cases to use a ship's engine performance analyzer(SEPA) to measure pressure in cylinder and top dead center(TDC) of piston of engine, and analyze its performance such as fuel injection time and horsepower as well as wear of piston ring. But, SEPA needs TDC pulses($T(1){\sim}T(n)$) generated when pistons of engine are located to the TDC position ($TDC(1){\sim}TDC(n)$), these pulses are gathered from sensors connected to gear wheel of the propeller shaft in the remote distance from the measurement point. Therefore, operators need a long wire cable(WRC) to TDC detecting sensor to get these pulses, but this method is a very uncomfortable and expensive in case of installation, and it might decrease user's purchase desire. In this paper, we design and fabricate a small and inexpensive MODEM cable(M0C) so that it may be available to transmit TDC pulse generated from sensor in propeller shaft through existing power line. We also verify the facts that this MOC can be applied to SEPA and the effectiveness of the system through the experiments.

An automatic transmission of automobiles enables comfortable driving experience with lower transmission shifting jerks. However, the assembly structure is more complicated and requires additional components with lower efficiency than the manual transmission system. Extensive research has been conducted to improve the overall transmission efficiency by optimizing each component of the automatic transmission assembly. This study focuses on enhancing the friction torque of double angular contact ball bearings used in automatic transmission. The friction torque of the bearing varies with the operating conditions such as the operational load and rotating speed. Since reducing the friction torque of the bearing tends to deteriorate the durability of the bearing, it is necessary to design the bearing having a minimum required friction torque by determining the durability life of an automatic transmission assembly, In this study, the theoretical life and friction torque of conventional and newly-developed bearings are calculated. The difference in the friction torque between the new and existing bearings are also evaluated.
