  • This dissertation tried to analyze passenger behaviors after an accident with the possibilities of a variety of accidents open reflecting the phases of the times of increasing interests in safety of passengers as the use of means of transportation such as cars and airplanes is increasing. Because a lot of data on head-on collisions, broadside collisions and reverse side collisions have been gathered through lots of experiments and interpretations, I chose to study a relatively unfamiliar subject, dropping collision. For example, I tried to study passenger behaviors in seating position after a dropping collision in preparation for falling accidents due to recent frequently-occurring sinkholes, driver's carelessness or mechanical problems. I used MADYMO, passenger behavior interpretation program, and experimented with 2 meters high Drop Test device which I made in person to increase the reliability of the results. On the basis of these, I compared the real experiments with interpretations.

  • There has been a recent upsurge in demand for the improvement of car reliability in the Northern American which is the primary market of South Korea automobile industry. It has been required that the warranty for transmission control unit for passenger cars directly related to passenger safety or security should be extended for 10 years and 160,000 km. In this paper, the test method for reliability and evaluation criteria is presented to evaluate the reliability on the automatic transmission controller. Reliability certification test can be roughly divided into two types: a quality test and life assessment test and a quality test can be subdivided into a basic performance test and environmental resistance test. There are 3 types of tests on the performance test for automatic transmission controller and environmental resistance test is composed of 14 items. Life test is performed with only the product passed this quality test. In this study, operation limit test at the high-temperatures, accelerated life test under specific temperature and accelerated life test for 2 or 3 stress levels are shown as a way for life test.

  • This paper describes an Electronically-controlled Power Steering system which is developed by the modification of a conventional power steering based on so called rotary valve technology. The steering effort is influenced by the electrohydraulic flow rate control of the pressurized oil to rotary valve. The vehicle speed and the steering angular velocity are used to calculate and output a signal to proportional flow rate control valve by the Electronic Control Unit. The improvement of the steering feel was satisfactory compared with that of the original conventional power steering.

  • 급증하는 자동차 수요로 인해 발생되는 배출량 증가는 자동차 운행의 특성상 대도시 대기오염의 주원인으로 작용하고 있다. 자동차 배출오염물질의 배출량 추정에 있어 국내 차량의 배출계수 개발도 시급하지만 우리 나라 자동차 운행패턴에 관한 연구도 같이 병행되어야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Cold start emission과 Evaporative VOC emission의 산정에 있어서 국내 승용차의 1회 주행거리(Trip length)를 이용하여 승용차 부문 배출량 영향정도와 계절별 배출량 변화를 추정하여 보았다. (중략)

  • 한국과 일본이 공동으로 개최한 월드컵 축구대회는 우리 국민을 하나되게 하였고 한국의 자랑스런 이미지를 지구촌 방방곳곳에 널리 알린 국제적인 큰 행사였다. 한일 양국은 각각 10개 도시에서 월드컵 게임을 유치하게 되었고, 월드컵 게임이 열렸던 각 도시에서는 자기도시를 홍보할 절호의 기회로 삼았다 따라서, 월드컵 기간동안에 좋은 환경, 특히 양호한 대기환경을 유지하려고 중앙정부 뿐만 아니라 지방자치 정부(단체)에서도 많은 노력을 기울이게 되었다. (중략)

  • In the design of the high-speed railway vehicles of low noise and vibration characteristics, it is desirable to develop efficient and systematic procedures for analyzing large structures. In this paper, some finite-element modelling techniques and an efficient analytical method are proposed for this purpose. The analytical method is based on substructuring approach such as a free-interface method and a generalized synthesis algorithm. In final, the proposed approaches are applied to the finite-element modelling, modal analysis and subsequent model updating procedures of the high-speed railway intermediate trailers.
