Pedestrians involved in traffic accidents manifest unique trajectory characteristics depending on the collision speed, vehicle configuration, and pedestrian postures. However, the existing analytical models for pedestrian movements do not fully include the rotational characteristics of the pedestrians because they assume a two dimensional parabolic trajectory. This faulty assumption in the development of these models limits their applicability and reliability This study investigated the pedestrians movement at collision by computer simulation. The simulations are carried out by using HADYMO, which is a special simulation software system for dynamic movement analysis. Vehicles and pedestrians are modeled and verified via real crash worthiness experiments. Simulations are performed for various collision speeds, vehicle configuration, and pedestrian postures. Since the simulation uses multi-body dynamics, It can express irregular phenomena of the bodies quite well. The results can be exploited for vehicle design and traffic accident reconstruction.

This paper presents the design of a new sliding mode controller to improve the rate of convergence by Lyapunov's stability analysis. The proposed controller shows that the elimination of the steady state position errors can be achieved by replacing the desired trajectory by the virtual reference trajectory. The proposed control scheme which consists of the upper bounded and estimated values of eac term of the manipulator dynamic equation does not require good knowledge of the parameters and the computation of matrix inversion. The performance of proposed controller is evaluated by the simulation for a two-link manipulator.

A method of trajectory error estimation of a hypersonic vehicle, by a covariance analysis technique is presented and discussed. The method itself is a wellkown technique, however, the thema has been rarely treated. As the importance is increasing, it is explained here and some of our newly deviced techniques are also presented.

The spherical aberration and optical integer (f) of the electron gun's main lens in color CRT is obtained, using electron beam trajectory. A spherical aberration is obtained from the relation between the object plane and the image of a beam trajectory. To analyze beam profile, 3rd and 1st order coefficient were obtained and used. It is shown that, in practice, they are applied to electron gun design.

In unmanned vehicles' navigation, the shapes of obstacles are generally irregular and complex. The motion of vehicles based on the range sensor system such as ultrasonic sensors or laser sensors can be unstable due to the irregular shape of the obstacles. In this case, to generate stable trajectory of unmanned vehicles equipped with range sensors, we need an approach that can simplify an obstacle's irregular shape information. In this paper, we propose the trajectory generation algorithm that an vehicle can stably navigate in the environments where irregular shaped obstacles are scattered. The proposed method is verified through the analysis of vehicle's trail and direction data acquired by simulations and implementations.

In this paper, the launch trajectory of the Japan scientific satellite M-3H-3 from launch to orbit injection is investigated. For the terminal conditions at a guidance target point, a guidance and control system is used. An open-loop and a closed-loop guidance schemes are used simultaneously. For the closed-loop guidance scheme, the velocity polynomial algorithm represented by the velocity difference between the target point and present velocity is used. A PD control system is used for activating gimbal type engines. The simulation result shows that all the terminal position and velocity conditions are satisfied and the trajectory for the M-3H-3 scientific satellite is reasonable.

In this paper, an arbitrary mission of a spacecraft from launch to orbit injection is investigated for some launch trajectories. Launch sites are selected arbitrarily from various locations in Korea. For this study, a general purpose simulation program is developed. In this program, the Earth is assumed to be a rotating ellipsold. The launch vehicle is treated as a 3-D, 6-DOF rigid body. The developed program has been evaluated by calibrating it to the 3-stage N-1 rocket developed in Japan and launched at Tanegasima. The simulated trajectory from the first-stage ignition to burnout of third-stage main engine is compared with the previously tested N-1 rocket trajectory in Japan. The result shows that the program works properly. Using the proven program, we have investigated possible launch locations in Korea, namely Marado, Sungsan and Kuryongpo. The problem of polar orbit injection is also examined.

In this study, we have developed the simulation tool in order to investigate driving trajectory of AGV for container transport. AGV for container transport is different from the indoor AGV in that it is a large size structure at being loaded the weight of 40 ton. and AGV for container transport is applied to front wheel steering, rear wheel steering, all wheel steering, and crap steering. Therefore, we have developed the simulation tool considering dynamic problems and a center of turning in accordance with fourth ways of steering mode. As the result of this study, we have confirmed that this tool is useful and cost-effective in the dynamic analysis or large size vehicles. Also, it is useful to calculate the minimum radius of turning for large size vehicles.

This paper deals with design and control of passive multiple trailer systems fer practical applications. Due to cost and complexity of trailer mechanism, passive systems are preferred to active systems in this research. The control objective is to minimize trajectory tracking errors of passive multiple trailers. Three types of passive trailer systems-direct-hooked, three-point, and off-hooked- are discussed in this paper. Trajectory tracking performance and stability issues under constant velocity motion are carried out for three types. Various simulations and experiments have been also performed for these three types. It is shown that the proposed off-hooked trailer system produces better tracking performance than the other types.
