Recently, the automobile industry has developed ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance System) to prevent traffic accidents and reduce driver's driving burden. Among the ADAS, the LKAS (Lane Keeping Assistance System) is a support system for the convenience and safety of the driver, and the main function is to maintain the driving lane of the vehicle. LKAS is a system that uses radar sensor and camera sensor to collect information about the position of the vehicle in the lane and to support keeping the lane through control if necessary. In many countries, LKAS has already been commercialized and the convenience and safety of drivers have been improved. The international LKAS evaluation test procedure is being developed and discussed by standardization committees such as the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and the Euro NCAP (New Car Assessment Program). In Korean, the LKAS test method is specified in the KNCAP (Korean New Car Assessment Program), but the evaluation method is not defined. Therefore, the LKAS test procedure that meets international standards and is suitable for domestic road environment is necessary. In this paper, development of LKAS test evaluation scenarios that meets international standards and considering domestic road environment, and the formula that can evaluate the result value after control as the relative distance of lane and the front wheel are suggested. And a comparative analysis was conducted to verify the validity of the suggested scenario and formula. The test evaluation was conducted using the vehicle equipped with the LKAS.

Most of auto-body members are composed of stamping parts. These parts have the non-uniform thickness and plastic work hardening distribution during the forming process. This paper is concerned with the side impact analysis of the ULSAB-AVC model according to the US-SINCAP in order to compare the crashworthiness between the model with and without considering the forming effect. The forming effect is ca]ciliated by one-step forming analysis for several members. The crashworthiness is investigated by comparing the deformed shape of the cabin room the energy absorption characteristics and the intrusion velocity of a car. The result of the crash analysis demonstrates that the crash mode, the load-carrying capacity and energy absorption can be affected by the forming effect. It is noted that the design of an autobody should be carried out considering the forming effect for accurate assessment of crashworthiness.

For the robust passenger NCAP 5star and the stable neck injury performance, a new concept of passenger airbag has been required strongly. Especially, the deployment stability and the vent hole control technology of the passenger airbag should be improved. According to these requirements, the deployment stability technique has been studied and the 'Active Vent' technology has been developed. As a result, these technologies have led to achieve the robust NCAP rating and are applied to the production vehicles.

Many car manufacturers have frequently adopted an aggressive inflator and a lower threshold speed for airbag deployment in order to meet an injury requirement for unbolted occupant at high speed crash test. Consequently, today's occupant safety restraint system has a weakness due to an airbag induced injury at low speed crash event. This paper proposes a new crash algorithm to improve the weakness by suppressing airbag deployment at low speed crash event in case of belted condition. The proposed algorithm consists of two major blocks-crash severity algorithm and deployment logic block. The first block decides crash severity with two levels by means of velocity and crash energy calculation from acceleration signal. The second block implemented by simple AND/OR logic combines the crash severity level and seat belt status information to generate firing commands for airbag and belt pretensioner. Furthermore, it can be extended to adopt additional sensor information from passenger presence detection sensor and safing sensor. A simulation using real crash data for a 1,800cc passenger vehicle has been conducted to verify the performance of proposed algorithm.

In recent years, WorldSID dummy has been continuously developed and investigated to be a better represent biolfidelic ATD as well as a device for replacement of the current existing EuroSID-2. In Korea, the side impact accident is one of the major severe accidents in terms of numbers of accidents and fatality. Since 2003, 50kph 90degree side crash test has been initiated as a safety standard with EuroSID-1 at the first stage and also same time 55kph impact speed test has been conducted as a part of KNCAP program. Currently only EuroSID-2 is accepted as a regulatory tool for vehicle certification and KNCAP. In order to make use of WorldSID of KNCAP in the distant futuer the tests with WorldSID is conducted experimentally.

현대사회의 자동차 산업은 교통사고를 예방하고 운전자의 운전 부담을 줄이기 위해 첨단 운전 보조 장치(ADAS)를 개발 해왔다. ADAS중 차선유지지원장치(LKAS)는 안전과 운전 향상을 위해 차량 시스템을 자동화시키기 위해 개발되었다. LKAS의 주요 역할은 현재 차선 내에서 차량을 유지하는데 있어 운전자를 도와주는 것이다. LKAS는 레이더센서와 카메라센서를 사용하여 차선 내에서 차량의 위치에 대한 정보를 수집하고 필요한 경우 엑츄에이터에 명령을 전송하여 차량의 측면 이동에 영향을 미친다. 최근 LKAS가 장착된 차량 일부가 일부 선진국에서 상용화되며 안정성이 증가되었다. 국제적으로 LKAS 평가를 위한 시험절차는 ISO(International Organization for Standardization)와 UNECE(United Nations Economic Commission for Europe)와 같은 국제위원회에서 논의하며 개발중이다. 한국에서는 차량 안전을 위한 LKAS의 평가가 KNCAP(Korean New Car Assessment Program)에 의해 도입될 예정이다. 따라서 국제표준에 부합하는 국내 도로환경에 적합한 LKAS의 시험 절차가 개발되어야한다. 본 논문에서는 국내도로환경에 맞춘 LKAS 시험시나리오 개발 및 목표 상대거리를 구하는 수식을 제안한다. 그리고 제안한 시나리오와 수식을 평가하기 위해 LKAS가 장착된 상용차량을 사용하여 시험평가를 진행하였다.

Motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause (70%) of children injury and fatality. 98% of Children under the age of 9 who came to emergency room with a traffic accident are not seated in CRS. Reduction in mortality when using CRS (NHTSA study), 71% for infants of 1-2 years old, 54% for 3-6 years old and 7-12 years old. It is very important and essential to use CRS for child passenger safety. But in Korean market, the CRS fitment rate is relatively low (20~40%). For European market, at the start of 2013, Euro NCAP started to check how easy it is to install the most common seats. And US market, NHTSA is planning a new consumer information program of CRS fitment for near future. This study examines CRS installation performance of 3 vehicles which are produced by GM Korea and 21 CRS which are based on sales volume in Korean market. Purpose of this study is to identify both vehicle and CRS design that causes bad interaction for CRS installation.

Recently, the driver can be assisted by the advanced active safety devices such as ADAS from road traffic risks. With this system, driver and passenger may freed from can driving tasks or kept eyes on forward direction while on the road. Help from adoptive cruise control, auto parking and newly develped automated driving vehicles technologies, the driver positions will vary significantly from the current standard driver position during the travel time. On this hypothesis, the objective of this study is analyze the behavior and injuries of drivers in the event of frontal impact under these abnormal driver position. Based on the KNCAP frontal impact testing method, this simulation matrix was set-up with dummies of 5 th tile female Hybrid III dummy and 50 th tile male Hybrid III dummy. The small sedan type passenger car was modeled in this simulation. The series of simulation was performed to compare the injuries and behaviour of each dummy, varying the seating status and seat position of each dummy.

In order to protect occupant during car crash accident, Regulation and NCAP(New Car assessment Program) have been developed among various countries like U.S.A., Europe, Korea and Australia. Especially NCAP scores affect to sales of vehicles. So vehicle makers are trying to get good score in NCAP. Low leg injuries play an important role in Australia and Euro NCAP and these injuries are related with footrest design. Optimization of footrest design in early stage of vehicle development is necessary to obtain better and robust results of low legs during crash tests. In this paper, DFSS method and finite element model were used to optimize the low leg performance in small RHD vehicles. Compared with the lower leg injury of base model, the lower leg injury of proposed model was slightly improved and robustness was enhanced also.

자동차 전자 제어 장치의 확대 보급에 따라 관련 장치의 오동작으로 인해 발생하는 자동차 사고 및 인명 손실을 최소화하기 위해 ISO 26262가 제정되어 완성 차량 제작사는 물론 부품 공급사에 적용되고 있다. 이 규격에서는 자동차 전체 시스템을 대상으로 개발 초기부터 생산/폐기에 이르기까지 전체 생명주기에서의 안전 요구사항을 적용토록 요구하고 있으며, 전자파 적합성 분야도 중요한 검토 항목으로 규정되어 있다. 따라서 자동차의 설계, 제조, 검증, 사용, 유지보수기간 동안 각 단계별로 적용할 EFS(EMC for Functional Safety)에 대한 개발과 연구가 절실히 필요한 실정이다. 본 논문에서는 ISO26262의 적용에 따라 EFS를 어떻게 적용할 수 있는가를 검토하였다. 이러한 검토 결과를 적용하여 자동차의 기능 안전성 확보를 위해 EFS 평가를 강제 법규화하거나 또는 신차 안전도 평가(NCAP) 항목으로 확대 적용함으로써 제작사 스스로가 안전성 확보를 위한 절차를 수행하도록 규정할 필요가 있다.
