A dimensional analysis was carried out to investigate if model agricultural radial tire can predict the tractive performance of prototype tires. Experimental data was analyzed to prove the results of dimensional analysis. The results was summerized as follows ; 1. When the model and prototype tires are tested under the same soil conditions, inflation pressure, slip and dynamic load, traction coefficient ratio between two tires depend on the geometry of two tires. 2. According to the regression analysis of the experimental data, traction equation parameters of the prototype tires can be predicted from the that of model tire 3. Predicted traction coefficient of prototype tire, calculated from the traction equation paramters, showed good correlation with that of experimental results. Thus it was possible to predict net and gross traction of prototype tire from the model traction equation parameters.

A new scheme about a coupled bogie with Independently Rotating Wheels was put forward firstly. And then it is fund by theoretic analysis that the bogie takes on prominent radial capability on curved track and splendiferous restoring capability on tangent track. Lastly, a dynamic calculating model of the coupled bogie with independently rotating wheels has been established and a dynamic simulation analysis on steering capability of the bogie was made and the simulation results can inosculate foregoing theoretic analysis, which illuminates that the coupled bogie can solve drastically the difficulty about steering problem of independently rotating wheel.

Nonaxisymmetric bifurcation behaviours of composite tubes two different materials subjected to uniform radial shrinkage at the external surface have been investigated and compared with those of single tube. The effect of material parameters normalized with respect to those of outer tube upon the bifurcation point and corresponding mode has been clarified. The parameters substantially affect the bifurcation mode with long-wavelength so that the composite tube with low hardening exponent or with high yield stress of inner tube destabilizes the overall deformation of the tube. However surface type bifurcation, short-wavelength mode, shown on the traction-free inner surface is hardly affected by the material parameters. The surface type bifurcation completely depends on the material characteristics of inner tube and the bifurcation point of composite tube almost coincides with the of single tube.

In the design of the rotor of an interior permanent magnet synchronous motor (IPMSM), the bridge between the permanent magnets helps prevent the scattering of permanent magnets and pole pieces during high-speed operation. In the design of a motor, if the bridge is too thick, its performance will be largely degraded because of flux leakage. Additionally, if the bridge is too thin, its mechanical safety cannot be guaranteed. Thus, an accurate analysis method is required to determine the thickness of the bridge. Conventional stress analysis methods determine the thickness of the bridge by only considering the centrifugal force of the rotors. In this study, however, a method that additionally considers the radial force generated by the air-gap flux density based on the conventional methods is proposed and reflected in the design of a traction motor for electric vehicles. Finally, the validity of this study is verified through a reliability test related to high-speed operation.

1976년에 실시예정이었던 미국의 타이어 품질등급제(UTQGS)가 79년 3월부터 실시될 것 같다. UTQGS란 ①Tread 마모성능, ②Traction 성능, ③고속성능 등에 대해서 각각의 품질등급을 타이어에 표시할 것을 의무화시켜, 사용자가 타이어를 구입하는 경우 선택하기 쉽도록 편의를 도모하기 위한 목적이다. 이것은 당초 76년 1월부터 실시될 예정이었으나, 주로 Tread 마모성능의 테스트 방법과 표시방법을 둘러싸고 미국 High Way 안전청(NHTSA)과 미국의 타이어 메이커 간에 소송까지 벌어져서 그 실시가 지연되었다. 제1심에서는 타이어 메이커 측이 패소하여 타이어 메이커는 즉시 상소하였으나, 기간 재판의 진행 상태로 보아 UTQGS가 실시될 정망이 농후해졌다. 그러나 NHTSA는 내년부터 실시되는 동법령중에서 Radial을 제외하고 있어서, 세계의 주류로 되어 있는 Radial 타이어를 제외 하는 것은 「UTQGS의 효과를 반감하는 것」이라는 비판이 나오고 있다.

Vehicle dynamics control systems are. complex and non-linear, so they have difficulties in developing a controller for the anti-lock braking systems and the auto-traction systems. Currently the fuzzy-logic technique to estimate the absolute vehicle speed is good results in normal conditions. But the estimation error in severe braking is discontented. In this paper, we estimate the absolute vehicle speed by using the wheel speed data from standard 50-tooth anti-lock braking system wheel speed sensors. Radial symmetric basis function of the neural network model is proposed to implement and estimate the absolute vehicle speed, and principal component analysis on input data is used. Ten algorithms are verified experimentally to estimate the absolute vehicle speed and one of those is perfectly shown to estimate the vehicle speed with a 4% error during a braking maneuver.

Rapid flow advancement without void formation is essential in the liquid composite molding (LCM) such as resin transfer molding (RTM) and vacuum assisted resin transfer molding (VARTM). A highly permeable layer in multi-layered preform has an important role in improvement of the flow advancement. In this study, a multi-layered preform which consists of three layers is employed. Radial flow experiment is carried out for the multi-layered preform. A new analytic model for advancement of flow front is proposed and effective permeability is defined. The effective permeability for the multi-layered preform is obtained analytically and compared with experimental results. Compaction test is performed to determine the exact fiber volume traction of each layer in the multi-layered preform. Transverse permeability employed in modeling is measured experimentally unlike the previous studies. Accurate prediction of flow advancement is of great use for saving the processing time and enhancing product properties of the final part.

Bridge bearings are important connection elements between bridge superstructures and substructures, whose health states directly affect the performance of the bridges. This paper systematacially presents a new method to identify the bridge bearing damage based on the neural network theory. Firstly, based on the analysis of different damage types, a description of the bearing damage is introduced, and a uniform description for all the damage types is given. Then, the feasibility and sensitivity of identifying the bearing damage with bridge vibration modes are investigated. After that, a Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFNN) is built, whose input and output are the beam modal information and the damage information, respectively. Finally, trained by plenty of data samples formed by the numerical method, the network is employed to identify the bearing damage. Results show that the bridge bearing damage can be clearly reflected by the modal information of the bridge beam, which validates the effectiveness of the proposed method.

$DF_{21}$ diesel locomotive was designed to satisfy the requirement of Kunming Meter track and the 2Co self-guided radial bogie was used to suit the complex curve track. There are totally 12 locomotives was served on the track. The first two locomotives were devotion running on the track since April 2003, the wheel tread splling was occurred on the middle wheel set of the two locomotives after running nearly 150 thousands km on the track of the two locomotives at August 2004. The dynamic analysis was carried out to find the reason. The wheel set longitudinal vibration resonance phenomenon was existed on the locomotive dynamic performance, and this was caused by the too big longitudinal stiffness of the journal box bar on the middle wheel set. Wheel set longitudinal vibration resonance maybe an important reason of lead to wheel tread spalling. The corresponding mend methods were put forward from the point of view of wheel set longitudinal vibration resonance. All the wheel tread of the 12 locomotives on the middle wheel set were in good condition and not occurred the wheel tread spalling after the mend till December 2007 after 350 thousands km were finished. The mechanism of the wheel tread splling and corresponding mend method was discussed in detail in this paper.
