This paper describes a new design of blimp having wheeled vehicle part. This system can work both on the ground using wheeled vehicle and in the air using the floating capability of the blimp part. The passive wheeled mechanism in the vehicle part enables the stable taking off, landing on as well as it is greatly helpful to keep a stationary position on the floor. On the other hand, the floating capability enables the wheeled blimp to fly freely regardless of the ground condition or obstacles. The wheeled blimp can be used as an agent robot for the tole-presence application. Using multimedia devices such as camera, speaker, LCD and microphone mounted on the blimp surface, this system can get necessary information at the local site and communicate with person from a distance. As a typical tele-presence application, the wheeled blimp is currently being developed to a tole-guidance robot working in public indoor areas such 35 exhibition halls, departments, hospitals, etc ...

This study was conducted to develop the mathematical model and the computer simulation program(TPPMWV) for predicting the tractive performance of off-road wheeled vehicles operated on various soil conditions. The model takes into account main design parameters of a wheeled vehicle, including the radius and width of front and rear tires, the weight of vehicle, wheelbase and driving type(4WD, 2WD). Soil characteristics, such as the peressure-sinkage and shearing characteristics and the response to repetitive loading, are also taken into consideration. The effectiveness of the developed model was verified by comparing the predicted drawbar pulls using TPPMWV with measured ones obtained by field tests for two different driving types of wheeled vehicle. As a results, the drawbar pulls predicted by the TPPMWV were well matched to the measured ones within the absolute errors of 5.25%(4WD) AND 9.42%(2WD)for two different driving types, respectively.

In this paper, mathematical model was developed for predicting the tractive performance of off-road wheeled vehicles operated on soft terrains. Based on the mathematical model, a computer simulation program(TPPMWV) was developed. The model takes into account main design parameters of wheeled vehicle, including radius and width of front and rear tire, weight of vehicle, wheelbase and driving type(4WD, 2WD). Soil characteristics, such as the peressure-sinkage and shearing characteristics and the response to repetitive loading and slip-sinkage effect, are also taken into consideration. The effectiveness of the developed model was verified by comparing the predicted drawbar pulls using TPPMWV with measured ones obtained by field tests for two different driving types of wheeled vehicle. As a results, the drawbar pulls predicted by the TPPMWV were well matched to the measured ones within the absolute errors of 3.916%(4WD) and 13.31%(2WD) for two different driving types, respectively.

Regenerative braking performance of an electrically powered vehicle is closely related to driving distance per battery charge. An electric vehicle uses appropriate amounts of mechanical braking force and electromagnetic regenerative braking force to recover energy and increase driving efficiency. In particular, when it drives on a downhill road, energy recovery rate is maximized through regenerative braking during coasting based on the mass inertia of the vehicle. Since an electric two-wheeled vehicle covered in this paper is lighter than an electric four-wheeled vehicle, the improvement of its driving distance per battery charge through regenerative braking is different from an electric four-wheeled vehicle. This study compared the driving characteristics of an electric two-wheeled vehicle based on regenerative braking. Two driving test modes were simulated with a chassis dynamometer system. By analyzing the measurement of a chassis dynamometer, the driving characteristics of a two-wheel electric vehicle, such as driving efficiency, were analyzed. In addition, test results were reviewed to draw the limitations of conventional test methods for regenerative braking performance of an electric two-wheel vehicle.

This paper presents a novel design of indoor airship having a passive wheeled mechanism and its stationary position control. This wheeled blimp can work both on the ground using wheeled vehicle part and in the air using the floating capability of the blimp part. The wheeled blimp stands on the floor keeping its balance using a caster-like passive wheel mechanism. In tele-guidance application, stationary position control is required to make the wheeled blimp naturally communicate with people in standing phase since the stationary blimp system responds sensitively to air flow even in indoor environments. To control the desired stationary position, a computed torque control method is adopted. By performing a controller design through dynamic analysis, the control characteristics of the wheeled blimp system have been found and finally the stable control system has been successfully developed. The effectiveness of the controller is verified by experiment for the real wheeled blimp system.

차륜형전투차량은 보병부대의 전투력 강화와 기동성 향상을 목적으로 운용하는 군용차량이다. 전투차량은 운용 특성상 험난한 지형의 주행이 불가피하고 높은 무게 중심으로 인해 전복 사고의 위험성이 크다. 이러한 이유로 전투차량의 내부는 전복 사고에 따른 승무원의 안전성을 고려하여 설계해야 할 필요가 있다. 하지만 실제 차량을 이용한 시험은 현실적으로 많은 어려움이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 차륜형전투차량의 전복 시험을 모사하여 승무원의 안전성을 측정하기 위한 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션 및 모델링 방법에 관한 연구를 수행한다. 본 논문의 연구 범위는 전투차량 전복 시험 조건, 전투차량 유한요소 모델링, 유한요소 인체 더미의 적용 방법, 전복 시험 시뮬레이션, 시뮬레이션 적용 시 발생 가능한 문제와 해결 방안 제시, 인체 상해치 계산 및 평가를 포함한다.

Environment has become a main issue nowadays. People began to show big interest in "futuristic means of transportation", which is an efficient method in $CO_2$ emissions reduction and decreasing use of oil. Due to the noise and emissions of two-wheel vehicle of internal combustion engine, electric two-wheeled vehicles have been supplied in downtown. The electric two-wheeled vehicles use battery as power source. The performance of lithium-ion battery changes as the ambient temperature changes. In this paper, analysis of performance variance of electric two-wheeled vehicles influenced by the temperature using the chassis dynamometer and the environmental chamber was carried out.

A waterjet propulsion system has many advantages compared with a conventional screw propeller especially for amphibious armored wheeled vehicles because of a good maneuverability at low speed, good operation ability at shallow water, high thrust at low speed to aid maneuverability and exit from water, etc. The POD type waterjet is adequate for the present wheeled vehicle because the weight is lighter and L/B is longer than the conventional armored amphibious vehicle. Resistance and self-propulsion tests with a 1/3.5-scale model are conducted at PNU towing tank. Based on these measurements, the performance is analyzed according to ITTC 96 standard analysis method and also according to the conventional propulsive factor analysis method. Based on these two methods, the full-scale effective and delivered powers of amphibious armored wheeled vehicle are estimated. This paper emphasizes the analysis method of model test of the waterjet propulsion system for a amphibious armored wheeled vehicle and the model test technique together with the comparison of the two analysis methods.

The climate change due to the increased consumption with fossil fuel and rise of the oil price have been serious global issues. Automobile industry consumes 30% of the oil every year and causes air pollution and global warming by the exhaust emissions and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$). The demand of two-wheeled vehicle increases every year due to the parking and traffic problem caused by the increased automobiles in the urban area. Approximately 50,000,000 two-wheeled vehicles were produced in 2008. The development and sales of the hybrid two-wheeled vehicle industry become active due to its increased market demands. In this paper, the change of the motor and battery efficiency, driving distance, hill climbing ability with the change of the motor capacity was analyzed. Simulation of the peculiarities in urban driving schedule(World-wide Motorcycle Test Cycle(WMTC), Manhattan driving schedule), constant speed(10 km/h, 35 km/h) of small electronic two-wheeled vehicle was also carried out. Through the simulation result, appropriate capacities of the motor and battery for urban driving was acquired.
