The cooling system for electric devices of hybrid vehicles is examined. The present system is composed of coolant paths, inlet diffuser and heat sinks whose shapes are diamond and circular. In this work, inlet duct and fin arrays are combined in proposed models and examined by numerical calculations. Nusselt number and Reynolds number are considered for heat transfer performance. Main focus lies on the looking for optimal model for the cooling system adopted to compact driving module of a hybrid vehicle. The optimal model shows uniform flow patterns in the inlet diffuser and secondary flows after the fins attached to heat source. It is found that the vortical flows around the heat sinks are effective for heat removal mechanism.

Two-wheeled balancing mobile robots are currently controlled in terms of linear control methods without considering the nonlinear dynamical characteristics. However, in the high maneuvering situations such as fast turn and abrupt start and stop, such neglected terms become dominant and greatly influence the overall driving performance. This paper addresses the SDRE nonlinear optimal control method to take advantage of the exact nonlinear dynamics of the balancing robot. Simulation results indicate that the SDRE control outperforms LQR in the respect of transient performance and required wheel torques. A design example is suggested for the state matrix that provides design flexibility in the SDRE control. It is shown that a well-planned state matrix by reflecting the physics of a balancing robot greatly contributes to the driving performance and stability.

Train driving should be satisfied to run fixed distance within given time, and it is desirable to minimize energy consumption. Minimizing energy consumption depends on the train operation modes by driver or automatic operation. In this article, an optimal operation to minimize energy consumption by changing modes of train operation by a driver is investigated. First, powering model, braking model and consumed energy calculation model are introduced by using Matlab software. The accuracy of the model established by simulation is compared with the real experimental data, which is obtained from an authorized institution. Second, several simulations under a variety of operations in the ideal track are executed, and then the optimal pattern of train driving is found.

This paper proposed optimal design and microcontroller driver for driving the thin-type ultrasonic motor. To find the optimal size of the stator, motions of the motor were simulated using ATILA by changing length, width and thickness of the ceramics. Two sinusoidal waves which have 90 degree phase difference were needed for driving the thin-type motor. The thin-type ultrasonic motor driver was composed of microcontroller(Atmega128), push-pull inverter, encoder and AD-converter. Microcontroller generates four square waves which have variable frequency and 25[%] duty ratio in $20{\sim}150$[kHz]. The output signals of microcontroller were converted to sine wave and cosine wave by push-pull inverter and were applied to the thin-type ultrasonic motor. The encoder and AD-converter were used for maintaining speed of the thin-type ultrasonic motor. The AD-converter controlled DC voltage of inverter in accordance with output signal of encoder. Using the driver, characteristics of the motor as speed and torque were measured.

자율주행시스템은 자율주행 센서, 판단 및 제어 알고리즘 등을 기반으로 스스로 자율주행할 수 있는 기능을 갖추고 있다. 자율주행의 안전성은 도로 네트워크의 운영 상태와 관련성이 높고 도로 인프라와의 협력이 필요하다. 자율주행의 안전한 운행을 위해서는 지속적으로 도로와 교통 조건이 적합한지를 모니터링 할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 자율주행시스템의 ODD (Operational Design Domain) 특성에 따라 선정된 모니터링 항목을 관리할 수 있는 체계를 구축하기 위한 노드와 링크 체계를 제시하였다. 확장성을 고려하여 기존의 ITS 표준 노드링크 체계를 기반으로 하였으며, 모니터링 대상을 노드와 링크로 표출하는 방안을 제시하였다. 위험도를 5단계로 구분하고 관리하는 방안과 최적경로 탐색 및 통제 시 노드와 링크의 정보를 활용하는 방안을 제시하였다. 세종시를 대상으로 제시된 노드와 링크체계를 기반으로 한 시스템구축 사례를 소개하였다.

Abnormal cab vibrations in the Y direction in commercial vehicles during driving(70~90kph) are not common vibrations that happen to vehicles during driving and can be an obstacle to normal driving. This study conducted Operation Deflection Shape(ODS) testing to identify the causes of those abnormal cab vibrations and find solutions for them and also a sine sweep test to find resonance and frequency in the cab suspension system and set directions for improvement. The study also altered the shape of the bush inner part for changes to the rigidity features of the cab bush in the Y direction and revised the design with optimal rigidity in the Y direction, thus improving abnormal cab vibrations in the Y direction during driving.

This study focuses on finding ways to derive train's optimal ECO driving pattern, which can improve the ride quality and reduce driving energy consumption with keeping the time interval between the stations. As research method, we compared difference of currently operating train's ATO and MCS driving patterns, and concentrated upon the things need to consider in simulation in order to improve the existing pattern of ATO driving pattern's issues with securing the train operation safety. Determining driving pattern minimizing energy consumption by controlling powering within speed limit and controlling switching to coasting at appropriate point considering the track conditions for each section, and determining braking control starting time considering ride comfort and precise stopping is considered to be most important.

2011년 교통부문 온실가스 배출량은 85.04백만$tonCO_2eq$이며 도로분야에서 발생한 온실가스 배출량은 95% 비율을 차지한다. 이러한 온실가스 배출량 감축의 일환으로 급가속 회피, 경제속도 준수 등 에코드라이빙 교육 및 홍보 프로그램이 활성화되고 있으나 근원적인 배출량 감축 기술 개발은 미비한 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구는 도로 경사도 별 최적가속도를 분석하고 하류부의 오르막 구간을 대상으로 연료 효율적인 주행방법의 제시를 목적으로 하였다. 오르막 주행 시 주행모드에 따른 시나리오를 설정하고 시나리오별 속도변화량을 다르게 설정하여 속도 프로파일을 생성하였다. 각 속도 프로파일을 Comprehensive Modal Emission Model에 적용하여 연료소모량을 산정하였다. 도로 경사도, 오르막길이 별 연료소모량이 가장 적게 소모된 주행모드와 속도변화량을 도출하였다. 도출된 주행모드와 속도변화량을 기반으로 에코드라이빙 시 소모된 연료소모량과 cruise control 주행 시 소모된 연료소모량을 비교 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 오르막 지형을 100kph, 90kph, 80kph 속도로 주행 시 에코드라이빙 주행의 연료소모량이 cruise control 주행 보다 각각 33.9%, 30.8%, 5.3% 감축효과가 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다.
