고속으로 주행하는 자동차에서 전면유리 와이퍼의 부상 현상은 와이퍼의 닦임 성능을 저해하여 운전자의 안전을 위협한다. 본 연구에서는 고속 주행 시 와이퍼가 작동하는 차량 주변의 3차원 CFD 해석을 수행하여 와이퍼의 닦임 성능 향상을 위한 방안을 모색하였다. 정확한 해석결과를 얻기 위하여 차량과 와이퍼의 자세한 형상을 모델링하였고, 해석 결과로 와이퍼의 양력계수와 항력계수를 산출하였다. 또한, 수치해석을 통하여 와이퍼 작동 각도와 후드 끝단 각도가 전면유리 와이퍼의 양력계수와 항력계수에 미치는 영향에 대하여 분석하였다.

The interior noise generated by the windshield wiper system including a wiper motor, the motor mountings and linkages is considered as a structure-borne noise. The structureborne noise is closely related with the system vibration which was transmitted into interior cabin through the car body. In this study, the frequency characteristics of vibration in the wiper motor system were first identified through the frequency analysis. Then effects of the wiper motor mountings and linkages on the vehicle interior noise were studied through in-vehicle measurements. Finally a possibility of noise reduction at a certain frequency was revealed from the study.

The windshield wiper consists of 4 parts: a blade, an arm, a linkage and a motor. The wiper blade makes contact with the windshield and is designed to be operated normally at an angle of 30~50 degrees to the front glass. If the contact pressure between the wiper blade and windshield surface is too high, noise and wear of the rubber will result. On the other hand, if the contact pressure is too low, the performance will do badly, since foreign substances such as dust and stains will not be removed well. The pressure and friction of the wiper blade has a great influence on its effectiveness in cleaning the front window. This is due to the contact of the rubber with the window. This paper presents the dynamic analysis method to estimate the performance of the flat type blade of the wiper system. The blade has a nonlinear characteristic since the rubber is an incompressible hyper-elastic and visco-elastic material. Thus, Structural dynamic analysis using a complex contact model for the blade is performed to find the characteristics of the blade. The flexible multi-body dynamic model is verified by the comparison between test and analysis result. Also, the optimization using the central composite design table is performed.

직류 모터의 생산 공정품질 확인 작업에 있어서 전체 소음레벨이 합격점에 이른다 할지라도 관능 평가시의 이음으로 인해 불량판정을 받게되는 경우가 있다. 이런 종류의 문제는 가공 또는 조립 공정상에서 발생될수 있는데 본 눈문에서는 과도기적 스펙트럴 분석 혹은 시간-주파수 분석 기법을 소음품질 문제에 적용해 보았다.Case Study로써 윈드쉴드 와이퍼 모터의 이음 발생원이 상세 분석되었으며, 결과적으로 정상적인 주파수 분석에서 발견되지 않았던 아마추어 축의 불량이 충격소음을 일으킨것으로 밝혀졌다. 이를 통해 회전체-기어 시스템의 이음 원인규명을 위한 시간-주파수 분석 기법의 효과적 활용이 잘 나타났다.

본 논문은 반도체를 이용한 열화방지형 파워폴딩 제어기 설계에 관한 연구이다. 파워기술은 자동차용 사이드 미러 접이 콘트롤러, 와이퍼 콜트롤러, 안테나 콘트롤러, 파워윈도우 콘트롤러 등에 사용되고 있는 모터제어기술로 기존의 제어 방식은 DC 모터, 스위칭 소자 그리고 Relay 등을 조합한 방식을 채택하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 방식은 동작에 대한 신뢰성 및 내구성, 노이즈 등의 문제점을 극복하는데 한계를 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 모터의 동작을 감시하기 위한 방법으로 부하감지부에서 Motor의 Brush Noise를 감지하도록 하였고, R, C 충 방전 시정수에 의한 정밀시간 제어 방법으로 모터의 열화현상을 최소화하였다. 그리고 스위칭 소자로 반도체 소자인 MOSFET를 사용함으로써 동작의 안정성과 수명의 한계를 극복할 수 있는 제어장치를 설계하였다. 연구결과 모터의 반복 동작시간, Cut-off Time, 동작전압 범위, 전원 발생 노이즈 등에서 최대 11배 이상 향상된 효과를 얻을 수 있었다.

With the increasing the importance of emotional quality of vehicle, the sound quality of systems with electric motor components has become increasingly important. Electric motors are used for windows, seats, sun roof, mirrors, steering columns, windshield wiper, climate control blowers, etc. In this paper, a study was conducted to identify sound quality factors that contribute to customer's satisfaction and preference of the window lift system. Jury test for subjective evaluation was carried out and sound quality index was developed. Averaged sound pressure level and sharpness were significant factors when glass moves down. Also, maximum loudness at stop section and averaged loudness were significant factor when glass moves up. Noise source identification was carried out for the reduced the loudness and sharpness during glass transferred section and impulsive noise at stop section, Using the source identification result, several improvement points were applied. And finally, the degree of sound quality improvement was judged using sound quality index.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to develop and evaluate smart secondary controls using iPad for the drivers with physical disabilities in the driving simulator. Background: The physically disabled drivers face problems in the operation of secondary control devices that accept a control input from a driver for the purpose of operating the subsystems of a motor vehicle. Many of conventional secondary controls consist of small knobs or switches that physically disabled drivers have difficulties in grasping, pulling or twisting. Therefore, their use while driving might increase distraction and workload because of longer operation time. Method: We examined the operation time of conventional and smart secondary controls, such as hazard warning, turn signal, window, windshield wiper, headlights, automatic transmission and horn. The hardware of smart secondary control system was composed of iPad, wireless router, digital input/output module and relay switch. We used the STISim Drive3 software for driving test, customized Labview and Xcode programs for interface control of smart secondary system. Nine subjects were involved in the study for measuring operation time of secondary controls. Results: When the driver was in the stationary condition, the average operation time of smart secondary devices decreased 32.5% in the normal subjects (p <0.01), 47.4% in the subjects with left hemiplegic disabilities (p <0.01) and 38.8% in the subjects with right hemiplegic disabilities (p <0.01) compared with conventional secondary devices. When the driver was driving for the test in the simulator, the average operation time of smart secondary devices decreased 36.1% in the normal subjects (p <0.01), 41.7% in the subjects with left hemiplegic disabilities (p <0.01) and 34.1% in the subjects with right hemiplegic disabilities (p <0.01) compared with conventional secondary devices. Conclusion: The smart secondary devices using iPad for people with hemiplegic disabilities showed significant reduction of operation time compared with conventional secondary controls. Application: This study can be used to design secondary controls for adaptive vehicles and to improve the quality of life of the people with disabilities.
