In this study, the performance of a semi-active suspension system for heavy duty tracked vehicles has been investigated. To this end, continuous and on-off Sky-Hook control law have been evaluated for a 1/4 car model. Simulation results show that the semi-active suspension system has potential to improve ride quality of the vehicle. And we proposed a method for improving of variable damper performance.

The performance analysis is applied to the transmission of the tracked vehicle, comparing simulation results with vehicle test. The calculation method of hydrostatic pump/motor performance and power circulation is used for hydromechanical transmission simulation. And various shifting characteristics is analyzed by studying power flow at each range.

Currently, there are many kinds of tracked armored vehicles in service and they have encountered various environment and situations. So there are many obstacles to operate them improperly such as an engine stall. The causes of engine stall are an insufficient fueling, a mixture of air-fuel or vapor lock, and load increment which results from a rapid steering or increasing a viscosity of lubricant by low temperature. In this paper, engine stall by load increment due to a rapid steering or increasing of lubricant viscosity on tracked armored vehicles is analyzed, the ways to prevent it are applied, and their degrees of improvement are evaluated.

This paper describes a automatic video surveillance system(AVSS) with long range and 360$^{\circ}$ coverage that is automatically rotated in an elevation over azimuth mode in response to the TTM(tracked target message) signal of vessels tracked by ARPA(automatic radar plotting aids) radar. This AVSS that is a video security and tracking system supported by ARPA radar, CCTV(closed-circuit television) camera system and other sensors to automatically identify and track, detect the potential dangerous situations such as collision accidents at sea and berthing/deberthing accidents in harbor, can be used in monitoring the illegal fishing vessels in inshore and offshore fishing ground, and in more improving the security and safety of domestic fishing vessels in EEZ(exclusive economic zone) area. The movement of the target vessel chosen by the ARPA radar operator in the AVSS can be automatically tracked by a CCTV camera system interfaced to the ECDIS(electronic chart display and information system) with the special functions such as graphic presentation of CCTV image, camera position, camera azimuth and angle of view on the ENC, automatic and manual controls of pan and tilt angles for CCTV system, and the capability that can replay and record continuously all information of a selected target. The test results showed that the AVSS developed experimentally in this study can be used as an extra navigation aid for the operator on the bridge under the confusing traffic situations, to improve the detection efficiency of small targets in sea clutter, to enhance greatly an operator s ability to identify visually vessels tracked by ARPA radar and to provide a recorded history for reference or evidentiary purposes in EEZ area.

본 논문에서는 적외선 영상에서 영역확장 및 온라인 분산을 이용한 화염검출 방법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안된 화염검출 방법은 화염 후보영역을 효과적으로 검출하기 위하여, 먼저 적외선 자기 영상에 높은 임계값을 적용하여 초기 화염영역의 후보영역을 분할하고, 영역확장 방법을 이용하여 유사한 높은 값을 갖는 이웃영역으로 확장시켜 최종후보영역을 검출한다. 분할된 후보영역은 나대지 와 건물같은 비 화염 영역을 포함할 수 있기 때문에, 화염 영역을 검출하기 위하여 분할영역을 시간에 따라 추적하면서, 각 후보영역의 밝기 값의 변화 정도를 추적영역의 분산을 온라인 갱신에 의해 효과적으로 계산하였다. 적외선 영상에서의 실험을 통하여 영영 확장 방법과 온라인 분산에 의한 제안방법이 적외선 영상에서 효율적으로 화염을 검출함을 보였다.

The track tension is closely related to the maneuverability of tracked vehicles and the durability of tracks and suspension systems. In order to minimize the excessive load on the tracks and to pre vent the peal-off of tracks from the road wheels, it is required to maintain the optimum track tension throughout the maneuver. However, the track tension cannot be easily measured due to the limitation in the sensor technology, harsh environment, etc. In this paper an indirect track tension monitoring system is developed based on idler assembly models, a geometric relation around the idler, and the tractive force estimated by using the Extended Kalman Filter. The performance of the tension monitoring system is verified with the results obtained from the Multi-Body Dynamics model.

In general, tracked combat vehicles require excellent output performance of a power unit system to drive on special terrains and in extreme environmental conditions. However, high temperature and pressure are readily applied to the coolant hose in the power unit of the vehicles during high-speed driving under extreme road and weather conditions. These driving conditions can cause the separation phenomenon of the coolant hose in the power unit and consequentially engine overheating during driving. Therefore, a newly designed decompression device for the coolant hose has been proposed and manufactured to solve these problems in the present study. To validate of the newly proposed decompression device, the input and output pressures were measured under the before- and after-improvement conditions using experimental methods for different engine RPMs. In addition, the pre-heater temperature was measured under both conditions. From the experimental results, we expect that the current investigation can help to improve the driving performance of tracked combat vehicles.

The air cleaning unit of K00 IFV(or Infantry Fighting Vehicle) has important roles to make sure the engine of the vehicle works precisely as filtering foreign substances in the air such as dust and sands. The entire components including scavenge fan which is one of the important inner part of the air cleaning unit are developed so that we can produce it domestically and don't need to import it from P^⁎⁎ Co., the original maker in United Kingdom. This paper introduces a few verification processes including cleaning efficiency and reliability. As this core unit has developed successfully the improvement of military strength and logistics support can be expected. And design capability, manufacturing skills, maintenance ability of tracked weapon system will be increased thanks to the accumulated technical knowledge obtained from this developing project. Foreign currency savings and reducing operational cost can be expected as well in military industry.

This paper presents optimal design of controllable magnetorheological suspension unit for a tracked vehicle. As a first step, a double-rod type MR suspension unit is designed on the basis of the Bingham model of commercially available MR fluid, and its damping characteristics are evaluated with respect to the intensity of the magnetic field. Subsequently, the governing equation of motion of the MR suspension system featuring the MR valve is established. Then, the optimization problem to find optimal geometric dimensions of the MR supension unit is formulated by considering an objective function which is related to damping torque and control energy. The first order optimization method intergrated with a commercial finite element method(FEM) software is adopted to obtain optimal solution of the system. The performance characteristics of the optimized MR susepnsion unit is then evaluated and compared with initial one.
