외부 충격에 대한 연료탱크의 구조 건전성을 확인하기 위해서는 연료탱크 내부 연료의 거동과 그에 따른 영향성을 파악할 수 있는 유체-구조 연성해석을 수행해야 한다. 과거에는 유체-구조 연성해석을 수행하기 위해서는 상당한 전산자원과 과도한 계산시간이 필요하여 수치해석 결과를 도출하기까지 많은 제약이 있었다. 하지만, 최근 컴퓨터 성능이 획기적으로 향상되어 유체-구조 연성해석 등의 복잡한 수치해석이 가능하게 되었다. 유체-구조 연성해석을 위해 주로 사용되는 방법은 ALE(Arbitrary Lagrangian and Eulerian)와 입자법(Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamic)이 있다. 두 방법에는 상호 장단점이 있기 때문에 수치해석의 목적에 따라 적합한 방법을 적용하는 것이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 ALE을 적용하여 연료탱크 충돌충격 시험 수치모사를 수행하였다. 수치해석 목적은 충돌충격하중에 의해 컨테이너 내부에 장착된 연료탱크의 파손 가능성을 확인하는 것인데, 수치해석의 결과로 연료탱크 내부의 유체 거동을 파악하고, 충격하중에 의해 연료탱크와 컨테이너 구조물에서 발생하는 응력을 계산하여 연료탱크 파손 여부에 따른 내부 유체의 누설 가능성을 제고하였다.

This paper presents a heuristic algorithm that a mobile robot avoids obstacles using optical flow. Using optical flow, the mobile robot can easily avoid static obstacles without a prior position information as well as moving obstacles with unknown trajectories. The mobile robot in this paper is able to recognize the locations or routes of obstacles, which can be detected by obtaining 2-dimensional optical flow information from a CCD camera. It predicts the possibilities of crash with obstacles based on the comparison between planned routes and the obstacle routes. Then it modifies its driving route if necessary. Driving acceleration and angular velocity of mobile robot are applied as controlling variables of avoidance. The corresponding simulation test is performed to verify the effectiveness of these factors. The results of simulation show that the mobile robot can reach the goal with avoiding obstacles which have variable routes and speed.

MADYMO human model with the detail neck was used to investigate the reaction force of neck and neck injury from rear impact directions. In the validation simulation, head acceleration, thorax acceleration and the global kinematics of the head and neck were correlated well with experimental data. Acceleration data from three 15 km/h low speed car rear impact pendulum tests(rear-end, offset, oblique) were used to simulate the model. In the simulation results, the reaction force on the facet joint and discs in the oblique rear impact were higher than rear-end, offset rear impacts. Further research is still needed in order to neck injury analysis about different crash parameters.

Airbag systems have improved the occupant safety in reducing the injuries of driver and passenger during collisions. They have occasionally caused fatalities; especially to small occupant and children. Recent airbag related fatalities of children have raised serious concerns on how to evaluate the safety of children in various crash environments. This paper present the development of the 3-year-old human model. Child human model is composed of skin, skeleton and joints. The positions of joint and mass properties of body segments are calculated from ARB(Ariticulated Rigid Body) program GEBOD. To verify the developed human model, ROM simulation and OOP simulations are conducted.

Telematics services include automatic location tracking for emergency rescue, which is available for use in case of a car accident due to falling off roadways. This paper presents a simulation study on how far a car will fall before it hits the ground if it drops off of a roadway due to an accident or a natural disaster. The greatest horizontal distance the falling car can travel is presented in this paper, based on the assumption that air resistance as well as the direction and degree of acceleration due to gravity is negligible. This paper also presents the depth of the dent caused by the car sinking into the ground, the time it took for the car to fall free, and the velocity at which it travelled and horizontal distance it traveled. In this paper, the damage done to cars that crash into the ground and the dangers thereof are graphically represented.

Approximate optimization has become popular in engineering field such as MDO and Crash analysis which is time consuming. To accomplish efficient approximate optimization, accuracy of approximate model is very important. As surrogate model, Kriging have been widely used approximating highly nonlinear system . Because Kriging employs interpolation method, it is adequate for deterministic computer simulation. Because there are no random errors and measurement errors in deterministic computer simulation, instead of classical DOE ,space filling experiment design which fills uniformly design space should be applied. In this work, various space filling designs such as maximin distance design, maximum entropy design are reviewed. And new design improving maximum entropy design is suggested and compared.

The safety problems of buses have been arisen due to the increasing of road traffic. Occupant injuries are always possible in the rollover accident and the frontal impact. Thus the structure of bus should have sufficient strength to protect passengers under accidental loads. ECE(Economic Commission for Europe) regulation No.66 prescribes that the superstructure of the vehicle shall be sufficient strength for passengers' surviving and the residual space shall be preserved in the passenger compartment during and after the standard rollover accident situation. Rollover test and simulation on a large-sized bus was completed according to the regulation. The coordinates of the points on the bus were measured by photogrammetry system. The rollover situation was revived by structural crashes simulation software, PAM-CRASH, and it was checked that the structure still complied with the requirements of residual space during rollover situation. The residual space was preserved during rollover, so it was proved that the structure of the investigated bus had much probability of survival in rollover accidents.

The severe frontal crash tests are NCAP with belted occupant at 35mph and FMVSS 208 with unbelted occupant at 25mph, This paper describes the design process of occupant protection systems, airbag and seat belt, under the two tests. In this study, NCAP simulations are performed by Monte Carlo search method and cluster analysis. The Monte Carlo search method is a global optimization technique and requires execution of a series of deterministic analyses, The procedure is as follows. 1) Define the region of interest 2) Perform Monte Carlo simulation with uniform distribution 3) Transform output to obtain points grouped around the local minima 4) Perform cluster analysis to obtain groups that are close to each other 5) Define the several feasible design ranges. The several feasible designs are acquired and checked under FMVSS 208 simulation with unbelted occupant at 25mph.

In the proto design stage of a new car, the performance of an occupant protection system is often evaluated by CAE instead of the real test. CAE predicts and recommends the appropriate design values hence reducing the number of the real tests. However, the existing researches using CAE in predicting the performances do not consider the uncertainties of parameters, in which inconsistency between the actual test results and CAE exists. In this research, the optimization procedure of a protection system such as airbag and load limiter is suggested for the frontal collision. The DACE modeling known as Kriging interpolation is introduced to obtain the meta model of the system followed by the tabu search method to determine a global optimum. Finally, the distribution of a suggested design is determined through the Monte-Carlo Simulation.

A fuel tank of a vehicle is an important part due to its flammable contents ant its importance during crash conditions. Therefore, the fuel tank's design should be assessed for durability and robustness to ensure safety during the early development phase. Previously, evaluation for the durability was done by testing in physical driving conditions which could only be done after the completion of the vehicle. Computation simulation is a more effective method to evaluate the strength and durability of the fuel tank during the early stage. In this paper, two outstanding computational simulation methods are studied. One evaluates PV cycle fatigue due to build up pressure in the fuel tank and the other evaluates the PSD vibration fatigue from modal characteristics. The results show that computational methods agree with physical tests and are thus suitable to analyze the strength and durability of the fuel tank at early development phase.
