In this paper, driving functions of the Korea High-speed Trains were decomposed based on systems engineering architecture. In order to analyze the driving function, various systems engineering tools and methods were used. Moreover, interfaces of decomposed driving functions were analyzed to figure out purposes of the driving functions. Through activity modeling of driving function of the Korea High-Speed Trains, main functions were derived when starting, speeding and stopping. When the high speed train is speeding, pre-departure checks and wheel slide prevention are essential driving activities for the safety and when the high speed train runs high speed, maintaining driving stability by monitoring bogie hunting and monitoring drivers' safe operation by vigilance systems is important. Furthermore, when the train is braking, the driver should checks brake and suspensions as safety actions.

KTX (Korea Train eXpress) is the first high-speed train operated in Korea and its highest speed reaches 300 km/h. Korean high-speed trains are mostly operated on the railroads exclusively designed for high-speed trains, but the sections of Seoul~Gwangmyeong, nearby of Daejeon station and Dongdaegu are operated on the existing tracks having the speed less than 150 km/h. With this paper, we'd like to analyze the lateral force that occurs between the wheels and the rail when high-speed trains were operated on the existing track section to suggest an appropriate driving speed for high-speed trains. As the rigid wheel base of the high-speed train is 3m which is about 50% longer than normal vehicles, it works as an advantage for high-speed driving. However, as the lateral force becomes higher than normal vehicles when driving on curves, plans to reduce wear-outs on the wheels are required.

PURPOSES : The desire of drivers to increase their driving speeds is increasing in response to the technological advancements in vehicles and roads. Therefore, studies are being conducted to increase the maximum design speed in Korea to 140 km/h. The stopping sight distance (SSD) is an important criterion for acquiring sustained road safety in road design. Moreover, although the perception-reaction time (PRT) is a critical variable in the calculation of the SSD, there are not many current studies on PRT. Prior to increasing the design speed, it is necessary to confirm whether the domestic PRT standard (2.5 s) is applicable to high-speed driving. Thus, in this study, we have investigated the influence of high-speed driving on PRT. METHODS : A driving simulator was used to record the PRT of drivers. A virtual driving map was composed using UC-Win/Road software. Experiments were carried out at speeds of 100, 120, and 140 km/h while assuming the following three driving scenarios according to driver expectation: Expected, Unexpected, and Surprised. Lastly, we analyzed the gaze position of the driver as they drove in the simulated environment using Smarteye. RESULTS : Driving simulator experimental results showed that the PRT of drivers decreased as driving speed increased from 100 km/h to 140 km/h. Furthermore, the gaze position analysis results demonstrated that the decrease in PRT of drivers as the driving speed increased was directly related to their level of concentration. CONCLUSIONS : In the experimental results, 85% of drivers responded within 2.0 s at a driving speed of 140 km/h. Thus, the results obtained here verify that the current domestic standard of 2.5 s can be applied in the highways designated to have 140 km/h maximum speed.

In order to drive the high-density plasma displays, a high-speed driving technology must be researched. In this experiment, the relationship between the width of the address electrode and high-speed driving is analyzed using the Vt close curve and the panel structure for high-speed driving is proposed. In addition we show that the wider the width of the address electrode is, the narrower the width of the scan pulse becomes. Therefore, we could achieve the minimum data voltage of 50.1V at a scan pulse width of $1.0/{\mu}s$ and a ramp voltage of 210V at an address electrode width of $180/{\mu}m$ for the high-speed driving 4-inch test PDP.

본 논문에서는 고속 자율주행 중 차선을 이탈 하였을 때 사고를 방지하기 위해 주변 상황을 $360^{\circ}$ 카메라로 인식 후 경보를 울리는 경고 시스템을 설계하고자 한다. 자율주행 중 무리하게 차선을 바꾸려고 하거나 고속 주행 시 갑자기 나타나는 사람, 동물, 사물 등을 인지하지 못하여 사고가 발생하는 경우가 많다. 고속 자율 주행 중 차선 이탈시 카메라로 주변상황을 파악하고 차량 하부에 차선이탈 센서를 통해 경고 시스템이 울리는 자동차를 만들어 자율주행 시 일어나는 다양한 사고를 줄이고 보다 안전한 주행 시스템을 갖추고자 한다.

The purpose of this study was to examine drivers' driving behaviors and eye-movements according to driving speed and navigation- position while operation of the navigation in driving. For this purpose, two driving conditions (low-speed and high-speed) and two navigation-positions (top and bottom location of the center console) were set. Drivers' driving behaviors (speed, speed variation, coefficient of variation, and the number of collisions) and eye-movements (overall eye pattern, the average scanning time of navigation, and the number of gaze-out on the road for more 2 seconds) were measured. As a result, when the navigation was located at the bottom of the console, difficulties of lateral control was appeared in low-speed driving condition, and the that of longitudinal control was appeared in high-speed driving condition. In addition, above situation made the drivers' scanning times of navigation long, increased the number of gaze-out on the road for more 2 seconds, and made overall eye pattern monotonous. These results could be interpreted that the manipulation of the navigation at the bottom of console cause reduced attention capacity due to the cognitive load.

본 연구는 차량 운전 중 운전자가 원하는 속도만큼 속도를 내지 못하는 상황이 운전 스트레스에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지를 알아보고자 실시되었다. 운전자의 속도에 대한 욕구좌절은 희망 주행속도와 실제 주행속도의 차이로 구성개념화 되었다. 연구결과 4가지 도로조건(고속도로, 국도도로, 시내도로, 시골도로) 모두에서 운전자들의 희망 주행속도는 실제 주행속도보다 높게 나타났다. 4가지 도로조건(고속도로, 국도도로, 시내도로, 시골도로)을 종합한 평균 속도 욕구좌절은 운전 스트레스 척도 모든 점수(전체 DSQ점수, 전체 DSI점수, 전체 DSF점수, 진행장애 요인, 운전환경 요인, 사고단속 요인, 교통법규 요인, 시간압력 요인)들에 정적으로 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 특히, 속도 욕구좌절이 높아짐에 따라 운전 스트레스 척도의 강도 점수와 진행장애 요인, 시간압력 요인 등이 다른 운전 스트레스 척도 점수들보다 더 큰 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다. 평균 속도 욕구좌절을 백분위 점수에 따라 4가지 수준으로 구분하여 운전 스트레스 척도 점수들과 과속단속 그리고 가해·피해 교통사고 경험 차이를 분석하였다. 분석결과 속도 욕구좌절이 높은 운전자들은 속도 욕구좌절이 낮은 운전자들보다 운전 스트레스 척도의 점수들도 유의하게 높은 것으로 나타났다. 하지만, 속도 욕구좌절 정도에 따른 과속단속 경험이나 가해·피해사고 경험은 차이가 나타나지 않았다.

In this paper, we introduce the on-line test of the current collection characteristics for HSR 350x(Korea High Speed Train project) that have been performed in the Kyoung-bu high-speed line since 2002. Through the analysis of measured data during on-line test, the variation trends of contact force between pantograph and catenary according to the track conditions and driving patterns are reviewed. This study shows that the track conditions do not affect on the dynamic performance between pantograph and the driving patterns are important factors in determining the good interaction of them.

The robot mechanisms that were previously researched had only been conducted for the purpose of overcoming the obstacles stably at low speed driving and enhancing the stability against high speed circuitous driving, and yet, the mechanism satisfying two purposes. However, in order to stably drive with high speed on rough terrain, there is a need for satisfying both of these purposes, as well as testing the efficiency of the mechanisms at high speed driving. There, this paper simulated some of the passive mechanisms and focused on checking the performances of passive mechanisms through simulations and analyzing each mechanism on the basis of an evaluation index. The simulation was conducted by Adams (The Multi-body Dynamics Simulation Solution) and used various types of passive mechanisms which were introduced in the robotics field. As a result, the study confirmed that passive mechanisms have a number of situations that affect the driving stability on each direction of roll and pitch. Further study is needed about active mechanism.
