An $H\infty$ controller is designed for active suspensions of vehicles using 7-degree-of-freedom full-car model. Its performance robustness as well as stability robustness to system parameter variations and unmodelled dynamics are assured through the $\mu$-framework. The performance of the $H\infty$ controller is compared with that of a LQC controller in compute simulations. From the simulations it is found that the active suspension with the $H\infty$ controller reduces the acceleration and motion of the sprung mass in the heaving rolling and pitching directions when the car is driven on a normal road or through an asymmetric bump. The suspension stroke and the road holding capability are also improved with a relatively small level of power consumption. Overall the $H\infty$ controller shows a more robust performance than that of the LQG design.

In this study, to investigate a characteristics of slip ratio control of H.C.U for ABS, half car model tester were developed and a new H.C.U. was compactly designed comparing to the commercical H.C.U. for ABS. In half car model tester, variable inertia wheel has been used to load the car weights and braking forces according to the road surface conditions which were realized by pneumatic cylinder. And solenoid valves using P.W.M. (Pulse Width Modulation) method were installed in the new H.C.U The slip ratio characteristics of tire had been measured using half car model tester and the results were used in the control simulation for a new H.C.U.

The dynamic characteristics during gear ratio change including the disturbance of output torque has been one of the most important issues in the study of automatic transmissions of passenger cars. In this paper, to investigate the dynamic characteristics of a passenger car automatic transmission during gear ratio change, a dynamic model of the driveline of a passenger car focused on the automatic transmission is proposed and the dynamic simulation program is developed. The results of the simulation show good agreements with the experimental data, which process the use fullness of the dynamic model and the simulation of the driveline.

A friction damper is installed in the passenger car driveline in order to dissipate the torsional vibration energy. The frictional damping hysteresis has considerable influences on the driveline vibration characteristics and, therefore, it is one of the most important parameters in the damper design. To investigate the hysteresis effects on the driveline vibration, a dynamic model of the passenger car driveline with manual transmission has developed, and simulations were executed on the several different driving conditions for various hysteresis values. To verify the model, vehicle tests are preformed and the test data were compared with the simulations results. The simulation and test results show good agreements and the model could be used to determine the optimal hyteresis values in early design stage of the damper.

The dynamic analysis model is developed with the high-speed train (KTX) and a 2-span continuous prestressed concrete box girder bridge with a double track. The analytical results are compared with the dynamic field test results and found to be valid to yield quite accurate dynamic responses. The various trainset models with different number of cars are developed and compared with the results of the regular 20-car trainset model. It is concluded that the reduced trainset models, such as 7-car and 10-car models, cannot exactly produce the dynamic responses of bridges, especially when the train speed is high. Under the coincidence condition of two trains traveling with resonance velocity in the opposite directions, it is found that the impact factor under two-way coincidence is three times larger than that under one-way traffic. Consequently, for the bridge with a double-track it is necessary to check not only the dynamic responses of the bridge with one-way traffic but those with two-way coincidence.

Our study proposes the methods of distinguishing vehicle types using the interval and size of the car. The car videos converts the basic RGB model to Gray model for use and through Canny Edge Direction, it eliminates the background of the car while obtaining feature points through the detection of contours.

The circumstance as platform and tunnel is very important in evacuation from passenger train car on fire. The comparison of egress modeling by SIMULEX, PATHFINDER, STEPS was conducted in order to analyze for the influence of platform to egress from subway car. Model subway car is seoul metro subway car. Model platform was designed by code 'Complementary design guide for connecting and convenience facilities, and urban subway station'.

This study presents the structural analysis of car a seat frame by the finite element method. The load-deformation characteristics of seat frame are simulated according to the test requirements by FMVSS. Three dimensional modeling technique is applied to the components of the seat frame. The shell, solid , gap and rigid elements are employed to model the car seat frame assembly. Numerical results show that the recliner and kunckle plate are identified as the possible weak part of frame, and the results are well consistent with the experimental static load test. The current analysis model can provide useful informations to design a new car seat and can reduce the overall design cost and time.

We have developed a speaker dependent voice command system(VCS) to control the sunroof in the car using RSC-164 VRP(Voice Recognition Processor). VCS consists of control circuits, microphone, speaker and user switch box. The control circuits include RSC-164, input audio preamplifier, memory devices, and relay circuit for sunroof control. It is designed robustly in various car noisy situations like audio volume, air conditioner, and incoming noise when window or sunroof opened. Each two users can control the car sunroof using seven voice commands on the Super TVS model and five voice commands on the Onyx model. It works well when we drive the car at over 100 km/h with the sunroof opened.
