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 technology analysis process of body structure. 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. And this paper described the design process of a door module panel through the sensitivity analysis in case of the door speaker excitation. Finally, the analysis of the quality deviation using mother car is suggested 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.

Dwelling time is one of the factors that influence in rail. Current research in dwelling time has been focusing on railways, the state of the research in high-speed rail's dwelling time is not complete. Dwelling time is consisted of time to open door, time to get into and out of vehicle and time of the departure it takes after the passenger's door was closed, it was affected by various factors such as congestion's degree in vehicle, the number of persons that get into and out of vehicle, congestion's degree in station. In order to analyze theses, we need data analysis such as the number of persons that get into and out of vehicle, congestion's degree in station, congestion's degree in vehicle, but the congestion's degree and passenger's distribution chart in vehicle is excluded in this research due to difficulty of gathering data, and thus we will develop forecasting models through high-speed rail's demand most affected by the dwelling time.

With recent advance in automotive noise control engineering reducing major sound sources in the vehicle, customers perceive Buzz, Squeak and Rattle (BSR) as one of important indicators of vehicle quality and durability. As the long-term goal, we expect to establish the integrated design cycle for the reduction of the BSR noise in the early stage of vehicle development. which consist of design, prediction and evaluation procedures. This is possible only with great bulk of experimental data for BSR noise. In this paper, BSR noise is experimentally identified for vehicle doors, which have been traditionally considered as one of main sources of BSR noise. Based on this result, we proposed systematic method for the prevention of BSR noise in the vehicle doors.

The vehicle sound classified into driving sound due to power-train, operating sound due to electric motor like sunroof, door lock and electronic sound. These vehicle sound has various features depend on the characteristic of sound that user required. And it based on cultural and regional difference of user. In this study, the user required vehicle sound characteristics for luxury sedan was investigated in overall viewpoint. And virtual target sound was developed through the result of user preference investigation. Next, Jury test was carried out in Germany, USA and Korea for evaluating the target sound. And the regional and individual difference of preference was analyzed through the result of jury test. This result of research will be contributed to design of vehicle sound quality and target sound setting.

This study presents the design improvement process for door module. Its objective evades the resonance generated at module plate due to the operation of window regulator motor. For this study, the design improvement process is composed of experimental methods having three steps. First step is modal analysis at door assembly status for acquisition of dynamic characteristics which are modal frequency and damping. Second step is a vibration experiment to get the test mode considered an efficiency of window regulator motor. Last step is a vibration measurement by the form of $6{\times}6$ array on module plate. A vibration measurement of $6{\times}6$ array form can be got to three analysis results which are a transfer path of vibration using cross correlation function, a vibration map using OA level and a contribution by frequency band using coherent output power spectrum on module plate. These results are applied to SDM(structural dynamic modification) for design improvement to get around the resonance on module plate by the excitation of window regulator motor.

Dent resistance is an important characteristic to avoid damage on automotive outer panels. From a practical point of view, dents can be caused in a number of ways. Considering doors as an example, denting can occur from stone impacts or from the careless opening of an adjacently parked vehicle door. Denting can occur where the door surface is smooth and may not have sufficient curvature to resist dent. These exterior body parts are designed to improve dent resistance using a combination of work hardening and bake hardening. In brief, dent is affected by the shape of the parts and the material properties such as yield strength, strain and thickness. In this work, forming of door outer panel is investigated by Taguchi method. Main parameters are yield strength, thickness, blank size, blank holding force and so on. For the given value of design parameters, forming analysis of the eighteen cases are carried out according to L18 orthogonal array. After comparing the performance by simple conversion of simulation results into dent resistance, the final suggestion of the forming parameters is verified for the optimal improvement of dent resistance.

Electrical door system is one of the most essential items for the successful commercial operation of the railway vehicles. Nowadays, reliability values of electrical door system have a tendency to be included in technical requirements for design and manufacturing of rolling stocks. Manufacturer shall meet the reliability target values of electrical door system which is proposed by railway operator in procurement contract book. Railway operator shall approve the supplier's the reliability target values based on maintenance operation data. Railway operators are in the transition stage from the framework of maintenance interval based on time to the framework of maintenance interval based on distance. In this study, failure rates of the electrical door system currently used in railway vehicles are collected from maintenance field data. Failure rates are analyzed by using Minitab. Several kinds of plan for improving reliability are also suggested. It is necessary to keep studying on reliability prediction methodology, applying it in the field and implementing on improvement of reliability through feedback as well. Further, it will be useful for determining new maintenance policies or changing maintenance intervals for existing railway vehicles.

Since PSD(Platform Screen Door) is set up at many subway stations, its design related to a safety becomes gradually important. Especially the intereference check with a running railway vehicle is the most important of performance indices. This study proposes a dynamic analysis models for the railway vehicle and rail. Some design parameters are considered in the models to find a correlation to the performance.

In this paper, a research for the knowledge based configuration design software development of a train vehicle has been presented. Parametric design and knowledge based design concepts have been introduced for rapid design changes and analyses using a commercial CAD software, $CATIA^{/circledR}$ Knowledgeware module. Positions and dimensions of door, small window, large window, and number of seats were used as design parameters. It is crucial for train vehicle design because it enables rapid conceptual design by instant configuration changes. The results of this research can be used as one sub module of the multidisciplinary train vehicle design software and provide a basic data for rolling stock behavior and driver cab ergonomics of a train vehicle.
