Driver's cab shall be designed ergonomically to provide the comfort for a driver to gather the information from the equipments and to operate the equipments effectively. The typical three design factors effected on the comfort are the access of driver's cab, freedom of movement inside the cabs and visibility condition. All control equipments shall be arranged so that those which are most often used or are of critical importance are the most convenient to the driver. The layout of driver's cab shall maximize the use of available space to be rugged and easily maintained. The visibility for the running direction along the track shall be secured. The visibility condition apply the seating position of the driver. Not only the environment condition(temperature, humidity, rattle, etc) but also the construction of driver's cab can be ergonomic design factor.

This paper applies the fuzzy logic controller to a semiactive seat suspension system in order to obtain the better ride comfort in constraint of specific rattle space. The seat suspension system used for this research is a scissors-type one with the MR (Magnetic Rheological) fluid damper. Since a seat suspension system with a driver can not be exactly modeled, it is effective to control with the fuzzy logic controller. The rule was carefully tuned to effectively reduce the vibration transmitted to a driver. The on-road ride was realized on a hydraulic excitor and the result shows that the fuzzy controller has reduced the vibration of a seat suspension system compared to the continuous skyhook controller.

The vibration of meshing gear system is originated form teeth deformation, teeth contact ratio, profile error, etc. The gear vibration is classified as whine vibration during meshing and as rattle vibration during idling. In this study, the whine vibration is investigated under the assumption of piecewise linearity of elastic stiffness due to the variation of meshing. Numerical, theoretical and experimental investigations show the existence of the superharmonic components of the second and the third order. consistently It can be concluded that the superharmonic components in whine vibration of meshing gear is originated from the stiffness variation. It also shows that the higher order harmonics are reduced on the increase of motor speed.

Potato (Solanum tuberosum) is one of the most important food crops worldwide and yields of potato can be affected by virus infection. While more than 40 viruses have been found in potato, only nine viruses (potato leafroll virus, potato viruses A, M, S, V, X and Y, potato moptop virus and tobacco rattle virus) and one viroid (potato spindle tuber viroid) have a significant economic impact on potato, worldwide. This review describes the geographical distribution of the most important viruses infecting potato and the genes for resistance or tolerance that have been identified against these various infectious agents. In some cases such resistance genes have been found only in other Solanum species. Few genes for resistance to the vectors of these viruses have been obtained and even fewer have been deployed successfully. However, transgenic resistance in potato has been achieved against seven of these disease agents.

The powertrain is a system of exciters which are connected by vibration transmitters and noise radiators. The powertrain has infinite natural frequencies. If the engine explosion, excites a certain natural frequency, then the powertrain system seriously vibrates. The torsional vibration arises from here. Torsional vibration like this can cause various noises as rattle and booming. In this study, the simulation models of multiple degrees of freedom were developed to reduce the torsional vibration of the powertrain. These models are combined mass moment of inertias with torsional springs. The free and forced vibration analyses were carried out by these models; and the validity of the simulation models were checked by the field test. The reduction effect of the torsional vibration along the driveline design factor is presented by the analytical results.

In most vehicle manufactures have traditionally relied on find-fix method of human auditor, mainly due to variation excitation source. To solve the BSR noise, the requirements for BSR test are presented in terms of detection of noise source, analysis of time-frequency and sound pressure, sound quality for noise. A number of new technology direction, particularly in the field of noise source identification application and psycho-acoustics from the Zwicker's sound quality parameter, the computed objective sound metrics and subjective jury test result.

변속기에서 발생하는 치타음을 클러치를 통하여 해결하려는 방법으로 자동차 중립시와 주행시 각기 다른 비틀림특성을 갖는 클러치를 대상으로 한 실험으로부터 엔진플라이휠, 인풋기어, 변속기 케이스의 진동을 측정하고 분석함으로써 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 자동차 중립시나 주행시에 수동변속기에서 발생하는 치타음은 클러치를 통하여 해결될 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 클러치의 프리댐퍼와 메인댐퍼의 비틀림강성과 히스테리시스는 중립시와 주행시 치타음에 대해 각기 다른 특성을 갖게 되는데 메인 댐퍼만으로 구성된 클러치는 주행시에는 치타음을 제거하는데 효과적이지만 중립시에는 인풋기어의 비틀림 공진에 의하여 변속기가 가진되어 치타음이 발생하였다. 주행시 변속기 치타음 제거효과를 감소시키지 않고 중립시 변속기에서 발생하는 치타음을 제거하기 위해 메인댐퍼만으로 이루어진 클러치디스크에 프리댐퍼 부분을 첨가하여 보았는데 자동차 주행시의 치타음 제거효과를 유지하면서 중립시의 치타음을 제거시킬 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

The Output feedback linear quadratic regulator control is applied to the design of active suspension system using 7 DOF full car model. The performance index reflects the vehicle vertical movement, pitch and roll motion, and minimization of suspension stroke displacements in the rattle space. The elements of gain matrix are approximately decoupled so that each suspension requires only local information to generate the control force. The simulation results indicates that the output feedback LQ controller is more effective than purely passive or full state feedback active LQ controllers in following the road profile at the low frequency range and suppressing the road disturbance at the high frequency ranges.

Active suspension controls stiffness and damping between unsprung mass and sprung mass in order to increase the ride quality. However, to increase the riding quality, the handling quality should be decreased and the rattle space should be increased. So, active suspension should cope with these conflict conditions. Therefore its actuating devices have to produce sufficient actuating force and have sufficiently short response time. In this paper, the dynamic characteristics of 1/4 car model with an active suspension is studied according to hydraulic design variables. The active suspension consists of a hydraulic servo valve and a hydraulic cylinder. It shows better performance when it has more powerful and faster actuator.
