In this driving simulation study, the impairing effects of various types of electronic devices usage(i. e., destination search by using in-vehicle navigation system, TV watching and dialing cellular phone) during driving on front-to-rear-end collision avoidance were investigated. Percentage of collisions, driving speeds when the drivers collided, and initial reaction time for collision avoidance were analyzed and compared as the dependent measures. The results indicated that (1) any types of electronic devices usage during driving induced more serious collision-related impairment than control condition where no additional task was required, and (2) in general, destination search task appeared to impair drivers collision avoidance performance more than the other task requirements in terms of percentage of collisions and initial reaction time for collision avoidance, but TV watching induced most serious collision impact. These results suggested that any types of electronic device usage could distract drivers attention from the primary task of driving, and be resulted in serious outcome in potentially risky situation of front-to-rear-end collision. In particular, mandatory use of eye-hand coordination and receiving feedback seemed to one of essential factor leading the drivers visual attentional distraction.

본 연구는 다양한 전자기기 사용 유형이 추돌 가능상황에서 운전자의 추돌회피 행동에 대해 어떠한지 상대적으로 평가하고, 이러한 추돌 가능 상황에서 운전자의 추돌 회피를 위한 가장 효과적인 추돌 경고 형태가 무엇인지 검토하는 것을 목적으로 수행되었다. 선행차량과의 추돌비율과 추돌회피를 위한 최초의 반응시간을 종속 측정치로 사용하여 분석한 결과, (1) 다양한전자기기 사용과제 유형 중에서 항행을 위한 목적지 검색과제가 다른 과제들(TV 시청 혹은 휴대전화 사용)에 비해 상대적으로 더 높은 추돌비율을 보였고, (2) 이러한 추돌을 방지하는데 청각경고의 형태가 가장 효과적이라는 것이 발견되었다. 특히, 운전 과제 자체뿐만 아니라, 전자기기와의 다양한 상호작용이 주로 시각적 부하를 초래하는 과제들이라는 점을 감안하면 추돌방지를 위한 경고 형태 중에서 시각경고 형태는 상대적으로 그 효과성이 감소될 수 있다는 것이 시사되었다.

The piezoelectric properties and the doping effect for$0.95Pb(Zr_xTi_{1-x})O_3+0.05Pb(Mn1/3Nb2/3)O_3$ compositions were studied. Also, the heat generation and the change of electromechanical characteristics, the important problem in practical usage, were investigated under high electric field driving. As a experiment results under low electric field, the values of kp and $\varepsilon33T$ were maximized, but Qm was minimized(Kp=0.57, Qm=1550) in the composition of x=0.51. In order to increase the values of Qm $Nb_2O_5$ was used as a dopant. As the result of that, the grain size was suppressed and the uniformity of grain was improved. Also, the values of kp decreased, and the values of Qm increased with doping concentration of $Nb_2O_5$. As a experiment results under high electric field driving, when vibration velocity was lower than 0.6[m/s], the temperature increase was $20[^{\circ}C]$, and the change ratio of mechanical quality factor was less than 10[%]. So, its electromechanical characteristics was very stable. Conclusively, piezoelectric ceramic composition investigated at this paper is suitable for application to high power piezoelectric devices.
