An air spring which is a part of the railroad vehicle suspension system is used to reduce and absorb the vibration and the noise. Main components of the air spying are a cord reinforced rubber bellows, a upper plate, a lower plate and a stopper rubber spring. The characteristics of the air spring which are the load capacity, the vertical and the horizontal stiffness are depended on the configuration of rubber bellows, the angle of cord and the mechanical properties of cord. The computer simulation using commercial finite element analysis codes are executed to predict and evaluate the load capacity and the stiffness. The appropriate shape and cord angle of the air suing are selected to adjust the required performance of the air spring. Several samples of the air spring are manufectured and experimented. It is shown that the results by computer simulation are in close agreement with the test results.

Based on a two-degree of freedom vehicle model, this paper investigates ride comfort for a heavy off-road vehicle mounted a nonlinear hydropneumatic spring, which is influenced by nonlinear stiffness and damping characteristics of the hydropneumatic spring. Especially, the damping force is derived by applying H. Blasius formula in modeling process according to the real physical structure of the hydropneumatic spring, and the established model of nonlinear stiffness characteristics have been validated by experiments. Furthermore, the effects of parameter variations of the hydropneumatic spring, such as initial charge pressure and damping coefficient, on body acceleration, suspension deflection and dynamic tire deflection are also investigated.

A kart is a vehicle without the suspension system and the differential gear. The kart frame as an elastic body plays the role of a spring. By the cornering of a kart, rolling, pitching and twisting motions are induced in the kart frame. Also the slip or noncontact of the wheel and a permanent deformation of the kart frame can be induced. In order to examine closely this phenomenon, measurement on height-displacements with various sensors and tracking system and analysis on the kart frame twisting characteristics with the rolling and pitching angle are needed. According to the measurement result, while driving in a curve at high speed the kart frame is quite twisted. Analysis on the measurement results shows that a kart used primarily in high speed requires a frame with low torsional stiffness and a frame material with high tensile strength and large elongation.

The vibration of the dehydration process in a washing machine is important problem that affects the performance of products. In this paper, the upper structure of a washing machine is modeled as rigid body suspension system and, by numerical analysis, the amplitude of a spin basket and the transfer moment at a base plate are calculated. To examine the vibrational characteristics according to design variable change, the friction coefficient in anubber, the radius of curvature, the stiffness coefficient, initial length and locations of support springs are considered in the analysis. Experimental results are compared with those of analysis.

The axle spring is used in primary suspension component of railway vehicles. The most important factor of axle spring is to have adequate spring constant for comfortable feeling of ride. The non-linear properties of rubber which were important parameter to evaluate of rubber components, were determined by the characteristic test. The finite element analysis of the axle spring are executed to predict the behavior of deformation and stiffness by using commercial FEA code.

Air spring system in railway vehicles primarily ensure the air suspension of the vehicle body. The low natural frequency ensures a comfortable ride and an invariably good stiffness. In this paper, the characteristics and durability test was conducted in laboratory by using servo-hydraulic fatigue testing system to reliability evaluation of air spring for electric railway vehicle. The experimental results show that the characteristics and durability of domestic development productions are obtained the good results.

차량은 여러 가지 설계변수가 결합된 동적계이다. 차량의 운동특성은 이러한 설계변수의 변화에 따라 변하게 된다. 설계변수의 조종안정성에 대한 영향을 파악하기 위하여 현가장치나 조향장치 특성이 포함된 등가코너링강성을 고려한 차량의 조종안정성 모델에 대하여 수치해법에 의한 민감도 해석을 수행하였다. 민감도 해석결과로부터 차량설계변수인 무게중심위치, 타이어 코너링특성, 현가장치 및 조향장치의 특성의 변화에 대한 정상상태이득, 스테빌리티 팩타, 주파수응답 등 차량 조종안정성의 변화율을 파악할 수 있었다. 또한 민감도 해석은 정성적이고 정량적인 결과를 제공하므로 설계단계는 물론 차량개발단계에서도 차량의 성능향상을 위한 설계변수들의 최적화에 사용될 수 있다.

본 연구는 고속열차 시운전 시험과 이에 따른 주행동특성 고찰 및 개선에 관한 것이다. 고속열차 시운전 시험을 통한 선행 연구에서 도출한 요댐퍼 설치 방법에 따른 후미 진동 개선 방안을 실제 고속철도 차량의 시운전시에 적용하여 후미 진동 저감 효과가 있음을 확인하였다. 또한 전체 차량에 대한 진동저감 방안을 동역학 해석 소프트웨어를 사용하여 수치 해석적 방법으로 도출하였으며, 그 효과를 시운전 시험을 통하여 확인하였다. 개선된 설계안은 실제 2층 고속열차 객차에 적용되어 주행동특성 문제없이 시운전을 진행하였다. 차세대 고속열차 임계속도에 영향을 미치는 현가장치 파라미터들에 대한 민감도 분석을 수행하였으며, 임계속도에 크게 영향을 미치는 4개의 설계변수를 도출하였는데, 이는 1차 탄성조인트 열차진행 방향 강성, 2차 요댐퍼 시리즈 강성, 2차 횡댐퍼 댐핑계수, 차간 댐퍼 댐핑계수 순이었다. 이 설계변수에 대한 최적화를 통하여 임계속도를 23.3% 향상시키는 현가장치 파라미터를 제시하였으며, 이는 차세대 고속열차 상용화 모델의 설계에 이용될 수 있다.

To explore the favorable structural system of cable-stayed bridges with ultra-kilometer main span, based on a fully self-anchored cable-stayed bridge with 1400 m main span, a partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridge scheme with the same main span is designed. Numerical investigation on the dynamic characteristics, aerostatic and aerodynamic stability of both two bridge schemes is conducted, and the results are compared to those of a suspension bridge with similar main span, and considering from the aspect of wind stability, the feasibility of using partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridge in super long-span bridges with ultra-kilometer main span is discussed. Moreover, the effects of structural design parameters including the length of earth-anchored girder, the number of auxiliary piers in side span, the height and width of girder, the tower height etc on the dynamic characteristics, aerostatic and aerodynamic stability of a partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridge are analyzed, and their reasonable values are proposed. The results show that as compared to fully self-anchored cable-stayed bridge and suspension bridge with similar main span, the partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridge has greater structural stiffness and better aerostatic and aerodynamic stability, and consequently becomes a favorable structural system for super long-span bridges with ultra-kilometer main span. The partially earth-anchored cable-stayed bridge can achieve greater stiffness and better wind stability under the cases of increasing the earth-anchored girder length, increasing the height and width of girder, setting several auxiliary piers in side span and increasing the tower height.

본 연구에서는 한국형 PRT차량의 주행안정성 및 승차감 향상을 위해 현가장치 최적화를 진행하였다. ISO 3888(Double Lane Change Test)를 통하여 주행안정성을 분석하고 ISO 2631-1을 이용하여 승차감 분석을 진행하였다. 이를 통해 주행안정성과 승차감에 대하여 다중반응표면법을 적용하여 현가장치 최적화를 진행하였다. 그 결과 모든 반응함수가 초기설계치보다 모두 개선되는 만족함수의 비율은 3.9 : 6.1이며, 이때 현가장치의 특성은 Stiffness의 경우 S2와 S3 model의 사이 값인 30.68 N/mm과 Damping 계수의 경우 D1 model의 값을 갖는다. 초기설계인 현재 PRT차량의 현가장치와 비교했을 때, 최적화된 PRT 현가장치 설계는 Roll angle와 Yaw rate는 0.37%, Side slip angle은 2.8%, Ride comfort는 5% 향상된다.
