A new optimization scheme and some key techniques are proposed in the development of a vehicle glass drop design software system. The key issues of the design system are how to regenerate the glass surface and make the vehicle glass drop down along the glass channels. To resolve these issues, a parameterized model was created at first, in which the optimizing method and Knowledge Fusion techniques were adopted the optimized process was then written into the glass drop design system by coding with C language and UGS/Open Application Programme Interface functions etc. Therefore, the designer or engineer can simulate the process of glass dropping along the channels to assess the potential interference between glass and door accessory by using this software system. All of the testing results demonstrate the validity of the optimizing scheme, and the parametric design software effectively solves the key issues on development of the door accessory package.

Occupant protection in the side impact of a vehicle becomes one of the most important issues today. So, to reduce development time and cost, it needs test equipment which conducts an accurate simulation of the side impact crash. This paper describes a new test method for side impact, which utilizes a standard 12inch-HYGE-type sled facility. If a side impact sled test can simulate vehicle intrusion very well, it will contribute to develop full-scale side impact crash performance. The newly developed sled test method enables simulation for dummy motion, injury, door velocity, trim crack, and vehicle structure to be accurate. Ant also this sled test method can be applied to the development of side air-bag.

Environmental issues are attracting increasing interest worldwide, and accordingly, environmental regulations for vehicles are being made more stringent. As a result, the car industry is conducting studies focusing on fuel efficiency and lightweight vehicles. To manufacture lightweight vehicles, existing steel parts are replaced by composite materials and lightweight metals. In this study, the fatigue life of a new material for manufacturing lightweight car door hinges was predicted using a finite-element analysis program. The existing steel material was replaced by carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic (CFRP) and aluminum alloy 6061, and the test results were analyzed. The maximum stress decreased by approximately three times, whereas the fatigue life and safety factor increased. When only CFRP was used, its allowable stress, safety factor, and fatigue life were excellent, but the sagging of the product exceeded the allowable value, which posed a limitation in use. Therefore, it seems desirable to use an appropriate combination of steel, AA6061, and CFRP for this product.

자동차 도어 래치는 스프링, 사출품, 소형 모터 등의 작은 부품들을 조립하여 제조된다. 이를 위해서는 각 부품의 정밀설계 및 조립기술이 요구된다. 도어 래치는 자동차의 문을 열리지 않게 고정시켜 운전자의 안전에 직접적인 영향을 미치는 중요한 역할을 한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 자동차 도어 래치의 주요 구성요소인 커넥터 단자의 트리밍 시, 롤오버를 저감하고 적합한 유효전단면을 찾기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 유한요소해석과 실험계획법의 직교배열을 통한 다구찌법을 이용하여 차량용 도어 래치커넥터 단자의 전단면 품질 향상을 위한 최적 설계변수를 설정하였다. 해석에 사용된 설계변수는 클리어런스, 곡률반경, 블랭크 홀딩력이며, 커넥터 단자의 재질은 C2600이다. 해석을 통해 제안된 최적 트리밍 공정 조건은 실험을 통해 검증되었으며, 최종제품의 전단면 형상과 치수가 성형해석 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 이상의 결과로부터 차량용 도어 래치커넥터 단자의 최종 롤오버 및 유효전단면 향상을 위한 최적화에 다구찌법을 유용하게 적용할 수 있음을 알 수 있으며, 트리밍 공정 이외의 다양한 금속성형공정에도 유용하게 적용할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

In this paper, we develop a planning system for the routing and scheduling of vehicles in pickup and delivery service such as door-to-door parcel service. Efficient routing and scheduling of vehicles is very important in pickup and delivery service. The routing and scheduling problem is a variation of vehicle routing problem which has various realistic constraints. We develop a heuristic algorithm based on tabu search to solve the routing and scheduling problem. We develop a routing and scheduling system installed the algorithm as a planning engine. The system manage the basic data and uses GIS data to make a realistic route plan.

본 연구에서는 현재 전복 사고가 자주 발생하는 Model A와 Model B의 중형 세단 차량들의 사이드 도어들을 구조 해석으로 서로 비교한다. 구조해석 결과, 두 모델 모두 전복 사고나 충격 시 하중이 작용되는 부분에서 최대 변형이 일어났고 2개의 모델 중 Model A가 Model B와 비교하면 충격력을 더 견딜 수 있다. 또한 도어의 모서리 부분에서 최대 응력이 일어났고 Model B가 Model A보다 2.5 배 더 응력이 커진다. 충돌 사고가 일어날 시, 2개의 모델 중 그 최대 응력이 작은 Model A가 Model B와 비교하면 더 큰 충격력을 견딜 수 있다. Model B가 Model A보다 더 큰 변형량을 갖는 것으로 보아 측면 충돌 사고에서는 Model A보다 위험할 것으로 사료된다. 차종별 차량 옆문의 충돌해석을 적용함으로서 본 논문에서의 연구 결과는 미적인 설계를 적용할 수 있는 융합 연구자료로서 유리하다고 여겨진다.

현재 우리나라를 포함한 다수의 국가에서 지상 교통수송 체계가 포화상태에 이르렀다. 이를 해결하기 위해 교통체계의 3차원 화로 교통체증을 완화하고 door-to-door 이동성을 달성하고자 도로주행형 개인용 항공기 (PAV; personal air vehicle)에 관한 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 도로주행형 PAV의 사이징에서 지상 활주거리, 상승률, 최대 순항속도, 최대 상승고도, 실속 속도 등의 구속조건하에서 주요 설계 변수인 추력대중량비, 익면하중, 동력대중량비를 구하기 위한 구속조건 해석을 수행하였다. 또한 사이징 과정에서 국내 환경과 일반항공기급 인증기준인 FAR PART 23을 고려한 임무형상에 대하여 추력대중량비, 익면하중, 동력대중량비, 그리고 제동마력의 그래프를 통해서 설계점을 결정하는 연구도 수행하였다.

Weather Strip(W/S) is a rubber part to proof water, sound and dust for opening and shutting devices including vehicle doors. And it requires high dimension precision and durability to proof water, noise, vibration and etc. But ironically it itself makes some wind noise because of some protuberance with glasses. The air flow analysis of door part of vehicle makes it possible to calculate and find out the cause of wind noise. In previous analysis, we focus on the numerical air flow analysis of the automobile side part. We do 2D-C.F.D first and 3D second. Through simulations, we can calculate the amount of sound pressure level at the glass run and find out the effects of glass run to make wind noise. Finally we can improve shape of glass run to reduce wind noise although it is small amounts of sound pressure reduction compared with total vehicle noise level.

In the automotive electronic industry, the development of vehicle's door wiring harness (W/H) system for new applications is driven continuously for the low-cost and the high strength performance for electronic components. The problem of the fatigue strength estimation for materials and components containing natural defects, inclusions, or inhomogeneities is of great importance both scientifically and industrially. This article gives some insight into the dimensioning process with special focus on the fatigue analysis of wiring harness (W/H) in vehicle's door structures. The results from endurance tests using slim test specimens were compared with the results from FEM for predicted fatigue life. The expectation for the life of components is affected by the microstructural features with complex stress state arising from the combined service loading and residual stresses.

Recently the trend of automobile industry is that IQS evaluation index against a sensitivity quality is increasing. To reduce rattle noise due to speaker sound at low frequencies, it is required the advanced investigation of a package tray panel and a door module panel. This paper optimized the design parameters of package tray panel according to the theoretical background about robust design and suggested the design guideline for resonance avoidance and the reduction of vibrational sensitivity considering the excitation frequency of woofer speaker. In addition, it is suggested the design guideline of a door module panel through the sensitivity analysis in case of the speaker excitation. Finally, the design factor analysis of the quality deviation of a mother-car will make it possible to guarantee the stable characteristics of vehicle vibration in the early stage of vehicle development. These improvements can lead to shortening the time needed to develop better vehicles.
