자율주행기술이 교통류에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위해서는 자율차와 비자율차 간의 상호작용을 분석하는 것이 중요한 이슈이다. 특히 자율주행기술을 활용한 유용한 서비스 중의 하나인 군집주행은 주변의 비자율 차량의 주행행태에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 본 연구의 목적은 군집주행 환경에서 비자율차의 차로변경행태 분석하는 것이며, 3단계의 실험 및 조사를 수행하였다. 1단계 영상기반 인지특성 분석을 통해 군집주행 환경에서 어떠한 반응행태를 보일 것인지를 조사하였으며, 2단계 주행시뮬레이션 실험을 통해 비자율차의 차로변경행태를 분석하였다. 차로변경행태를 분석하기 위해 차로변경시간과 교통류의 안전성을 나타낼 수 있는 지표인 가속소음을 이용하였으며, 자율차의 시스템 보급률(Market Penetration Rate, MPR)과 피실험자 인적요소에 따른 비자율차의 주행행태 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 마지막 단계인 NASA-TLX(NASA Task Load Index)를 통해 비자율차 운전자의 작업부하를 평가하였다. 분석결과 군집차량군 주변의 비자율차 운전자는 심리적인 부담감을 느끼며, MPR이 증가할수록 차로변경시간이 길어지고 30-40대 운전자 또는 여성 운전자의 경우 안전성이 낮아지는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 도출된 결과는 자율차와 비자율차의 상호작용을 반영한 보다 현실성 높은 교통시뮬레이션 실험 시 기초자료로 활용될 수 있고, 이를 기반으로 자율협력주행 환경에서 적용 가능한 교통운영관리전략 수립을 효과적으로 지원할 것으로 기대된다.

In this study, numerical analysis was conducted to understand the flow characteristics of lubrication system in a manual transmission installed in a commercial vehicle. Also, the analysis was conducted with the purpose of improving the heat and lubricative condition of the transmission. Discharging flow rates on each oil hole outlet according to various engine rotating speed and the length of oil hole branch was calculated. In conclusion, as engine rotating speed is high and the length of oil hole branch is long, the discharging flow rate is high by virtue of the centrifugal force. In addition, this study proposed data for optimal design of lubrication system in manual transmission for a commercial vehicle.

A high prevalence of protected horticulture farmer's work-related musculo-skeletal disorders (MSDs) have been reported in precedent studies. One of the tasks required ergonomic intervention to reduce the musculo-skeletal risks is the task of product transporting. The purpose of this study is to evaluate quantitatively the spinal load of operator using manual vehicles to predict and prevent musculo-skeletal risks. Spinal load in operators using 4 kinds of manual vehicle were analyzed. Before evaluating spinal load on operator using the manual vehicles by bio-mechanical approach, it is needed to validate human model. In this study, ADAMS LifeMOD human model shows satisfactory results, comparing with already validated model's results or measured results. While Operators pushed the manual vehicles(wheelbarrow, Trolley, 2 wheel cart, and 4 wheel cart) contained loads that were 0 N and 800 N, their spinal loads(compression force, shear force) were evaluated. The compression force demonstrated under the NIOSH action limits - 3410N - for all 4 manual vehicle's operators(McGill 1997; Marras 2000). However, the lateral shear force demonstrated over the University of Waterloo - 500N - for all 3 manual vehicle's operators except 4Wheel cart (Yingline and McGill, 1999). Therefore, operators have risks in prevalence of the musculo-skeletal disorders due to shear force. The findings of this study suggest that it need to be determine the spinal load, especially lateral shear force in designing the manual vehicles in the future.

본 논문에서는 유인과 무인주행이 가능한 전기자동차용 수동 및 자동 조향장치를 제안한다. 기존의 엔진방식의 자동차에 사용되는 자동 조향시스템인 EPS, MDPS는 주행 중에 과부하시엔 핸들 잠김 현상이 발생하는 문제점이 있어 유무인 전기자동차에 적용하는 것은 한계가 있다. 제안하는 수동 및 자동 조향장치는 전자클러치와 풀리를 이용함으로써 수동과 자동변환이 가능하도록 조향 메커니즘을 설계하였다. 제안한 조향장치의 성능을 실험하기 위해 실험용 전기자동차를 제작하고 조향성능을 실험하였다. 실험을 통해 제안하는 수동 및 자동 조향장치는 유무인 전기자동차에 유용함을 확인하였다.

Detailed mathematical models of hybrid drivertrain components are presented and numerical simulations are carried out to analyze the shift characteristics and to improve the driving comfortability when the hybrid drivetrain is applied at the vehicle . Theoretical results are compared with experimental ones from the dynamometer as same condition in order to prove the appropriateness of modeling . Adding the vehicle body modeling, included in the suspension and the engine mount, it is possible to predict the dynamic behavior and shift characteristics more actually when shifts are occurred by automated manual transmission(AMT). these additional results are also compared with the same simulation ones of internal combustion engined vehicle equipped conventional manual transmission. Hence, it can be expected that the hybrid vehicle with AMT has a good shift quality.

The aim of this research was to compare driver's workload among AHS (Automate Highway Systems) road sections in a virtual AHS environment that is based on a re Korean expressway in order to predict and compare the workloads imposed by the change (driver-vehicle interface and vehicle control authority. Road sections included the M (Manual Lane), TL1 (Transition Lane to enter the automated lane), AL (Automated Lane TL2 (Transition Lane to enter the manual lane after the end of automated driving), an post-AHS manual lane.

This paper presents evaluation and comparisons of manual driving and driving with intelligent cruise control(ICC) systems. An intelligent vehicle cruise control strategy has been designed to achieve natural vehicle behavior of the controlled vehicle that would make human driver feel comfortable and therefore would increase driver acceptance. The evaluation and comparisons of the ICC and manual driving have been conducted using real-world vehicle driving data and an ICC vehicle simulator.

With the rise in oil prices and ongoing concerns about environment, there is an increased amount of interest in automated manual transmission (AMT) vehicles. Torque control in an AMT vehicle is attained by controlling the displacement of the dry-type clutch's actuator. To provide good ride comfort akin to that of an automatic transmission vehicle, the clutch control is vital to an AMT vehicle. In this study, a method of obtaining the clutch torque from a dynamometer test is devised. This method is able to identify the relationship between the displacement of the clutch actuator and the clutch torque. A simulator for estimating the performance of an AMT vehicle is developed using MATLAB Simulink. The results obtained from both the vehicle and simulation exhibit a similar trend.

In this paper, we develop a joystick manual driving algorithm for an electric vehicle called Cycab. Cycab is developed as a public transportation vehicle, which can be driven either by a manual joystick or an automated driving mode. The vehicle uses six motors for driving four wheels, and front/rear steerings. Cycab utilizes one industrial PC with a real time Linux kernel and four Motorola MPC555 micro controllers, and a CAN network for the communication among the five processors. The developed algorithm consists of two automatic vehicle speed control algorithms for normal and emergency situations that override the driver's joystick command and an open loop torque distribution algorithm for the traction motors. In this study, the algorithm is developed using SynDEx, which is a system level CAD software dedicated to rapid prototyping and optimizing the implementation of real-time embedded applications on distributed architectures. The experimental results verify the usefulness of the two automatic vehicle control algorithms.

It is very important to predict the future position for the heavy vehicle with evasive maneuvering. In this paper, we considered for the manual image tracking system. The vehicle images are received from gyro stabilized mirror system, pass through the optical lens, processed, and displayed on the TV monitor. The operator try to lay the reticle to the center of vehicle image. When the vehicle is moving, the mirror platform (actually the line of sight) should follow the vehicle and the angular rate information is picked up from the mirror stabilized system. This rate signal should be used to predict the future vehicle position. The problem is that the visual system of the human operator is in the closed loop system. The rate signals are disturbed by the operator. In addition, there are some non linearities concerned with the control handle bar and the servo control system. The proposed Kalman filter, combined with some modifications for operator disturbance rejection, improved the predication of the future vehicle position when compared with the conventional passive filter used.
