The sequence which minimizes overall utility work in car assembly lines reduces the cycle time, the number of utility workers, and the risk of conveyor stopping. This study suggests mathematical formulation of the sequencing problem to minimize overall utility work, and present a genetic algorithm which can provide a near optimal solution in real time. To apply a genetic algorithm to the sequencing problem in car assembly lines, the representation, selection methods, and genetic parameters are studied. Experiments are carried out to compare selection methods such as roullette wheel selection, tournament selection and ranking selection. Experimental results show that ranking selection method outperforms the others in solution quality, whereas tournament selection provides the best performance in computation time.

This paper describes the result of load test of bogie frame. The purpose of test is to evaluate an safety which bogie frame shall be considered fully sufficient rigidity so as to satisfy proper system function under maximum load. Bogie system consist of bogie frame, suspensions, wheel-sets, brake system and transmission system. Among these component, the bogie frame is the most significant component subjected to the vehicle and passenger loads. The evaluation method is used the JIS E 4207 specification throughout the static load test. The test results have been very safety and stable for design load conditions.

This paper presents an anti-lock braking system for commercial vehicles with pneumatic brake system by using slip ratio. By virtue of system reliability, most commercial vehicles adopt pneumatic brake system. However, pneumatic brake systems control is more difficult than hydraulic systems due to a longer time delay and the system nonlinearity. One of the major factors in generating braking forces is the wheel slip ratio. Accordingly, the proposed ABS strategy employs the slip ratio threshold-based valve on/off control. This threshold-based algorithm is simple but effective to control the pneumatic brake systems. The control performance of the proposed algorithm has been validated via simulation studies using MATLAB/Simulink and Trucksim. The results show ABS by using slip ratio reduces the braking distance and improves vehicle control.

As many systems depend on electronics, concern for fault tolerance is growing rapidly. For example, a car with its steering controlled by electronics and no mechanical linkage from steering wheel to front tires (steer-by-wire) should be fault tolerant because a failure can come without any warning and its effect is devastating. In order to make system fault tolerant, there has been a body of research mainly from aerospace field. This paper presents the structure of predictive hybrid redundancy that can remove most erroneous values. In addition, several numerical simulation results are given where the predictive hybrid redundancy outperforms wellknown average and median voters.

This paper deals with a newly developed direction indicator system of a car which displays left turn and U-turn signal differently, so that the following driver can identify the intent of the next car ahead easily. In general, when a car want to change its direction, the driver move the blinker lever below the steering wheel up or down. However, as the left turn and U-turn signal are the same, there always be the risk of rear-end collision by misinterpreting U-turn signal as left turn signal. In this paper, a new direction indicator system which differentiates left turn and U-turn signal is developed. The left turn signal is the same as before, but when a driver want to U-turn, an additional U-turn signal blinks at the rear of the car. By identifying the direction signals clearly, the developed system is expected to alleviate the risk of car accident.

Providing safety training to construction workers is essential to reduce safety accidents at the construction site. With the prosperity of visualization technologies, Immersive Virtual Reality (IVR) has been adopted for construction safety training by providing interactive learning experiences in a virtual environment. Previous research efforts on IVR-based training have found that the level of fidelity of interaction between real and virtual worlds is one of the important factors contributing to the sense of presence that would affect training performance. Various interactive devices that link activities between real and virtual worlds have been applied in IVR-based training, ranging from existing computer input devices (e.g., keyboard, mouse, joystick, etc.) to specially designed devices such as high-end VR simulators. However, the need for high-fidelity interactive devices may hinder the applicability of IVR-based training as they would be more expensive than IVR headsets. In this regard, this study aims to understand the impact of the level of fidelity of interactive devices in the sense of presence in a virtual environment and the training performance during IVR-based forklift safety training. We conducted a comparative study by recruiting sixty participants, splitting them into two groups, and then providing different interactive devices such as a keyboard for a low fidelity group and a steering wheel and pedals for a high-fidelity group. The results showed that there was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of the sense of presence and task performance. These results indicate that the use of low-fidelity interactive devices would be acceptable for IVR-based safety training as safety training focuses on delivering safety knowledge, and thus would be different from skill transferring training that may need more realistic interaction between real and virtual worlds.

한글초록은 기존선 고속화의 여러 대안 중 선로의 직 복선화 및 신선 건설에 의한 기존철도의 고속화는 시간단축 효과나 선로용량 증대의 폭은 크지만 막대한 투자 재원이 소요된다. 이에 비해 기존선을 그대로 사용하면서 속도를 향상하기 위해 선형개량 및 준고속 틸팅열차의 투입은 기존 인프라를 이용함으로서 보다 경제적이며 실용적이라는 장점이 있다. 하지만, 틸팅열차의 경우 기존열차와는 주행 메카니즘이 다르기 때문에 주행 안전성을 확보하기 위해서는 기존에 부설되어 있는 궤도노반의 성능평가가 선행되어야 한다. 또한 열차주행에 따라 발생하는 노반의 침하는 궤도틀림이나 열차의 탈선 등을 유발할 수 있으므로 틸팅열차 주행에 의해 발생하는 궤도 부담력에 따른 노반의 거동 특성을 분석할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 현장계측을 통해 틸팅열차의 기존선 주행속도별(120~180km/h) 주행안전성과 노반성능을 평가하였다. 모든 주행속도에서 탈선계수와 윤중감소율 허용한계치를 만족하였으며, 또한 노반성능 면에서는 기존 운행 고속열차(KTX)에 비하여 작은 노반응답(노반압력, 노반침하, 노반진동가속도)을 보였다. 이러한 계측 결과를 기반으로, 기존열차와 혼용 투입될 틸팅열차는 본 연구의 계측대상 노선과 동일한 성능수준의 궤도노반에서는 최고운영속도(180km/h)에서 안전한 주행이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

In the area of wheel on rail vehicle, hunting stability which is generated by lateral motion is one of important characteristics for running safety. It might cause not only oscillation of vehicle but also derailment in an unstable area of the high speed. A Maglev vehicle is usually controlled the voltage to maintain the air gap between electromagnet and track. However, in Maglev system, an occurrence possibility of hunting motion could be high, because Maglev vehicle is not controlled directly lateral force between electromagnet and track in the curved guideway. In this paper, running safety is evaluated when Maglev vehicle run on guideway at high speed according to installment of damper between maglev vehicles and bogies, and to analyze the effect of it. Also, the parametric study is carried out for selecting effective lateral damper properties through the simulation. To accurately predict the running safety, 3d multibody dynamics models which are included air spring, guideway conditions and irregularities profile are used. With the results acquired, suggestions were made whether to adopt the damper and how to optimize the damping characteristics.
