차량이 증가함에 따라 전방의 상황을 운전자에게 알려주기 위한 운전자 도움 시스템(Advanced Drivers Assistance System)과 같은 체계가 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 전방의 상황을 운전자에게 알려 주기 위한 기본과정으로 연속된 컬러 영상으로부터 영상처리만을 이용하여 전방의 차량과 차선을 검출하는 방법을 제안한다. 도로 전방의 상황은 차량이 많다고 하더라도 도로의 영역이 많은 부분을 차지하고 있으며, 차량이 있는 경우에 차량의 하단에 그림자와 같이 어두운 영역이 존재하는 점을 이용하여 전방의 차량을 검출한다. 그리고 차선은 그림자 영역의 반대 특징으로 횐색계열이라는 점을 이용하여 차선 정보를 추출한다. 이 방법은 도로가 혼잡하거나 도로상에 방향 표시가 있는 경우에도 좋은 결과를 보인다. 차량과 차선을 검출하는데는 HSV 컬러 모델에서 태도 성분과 명도 성분을 이용하여 후보점을 검출하고, 차량과 타선의 영역을 검출하며 에지 정보를 이용하여 차량의 영역을 결정한다. 그리고 검출된 차량 영역이 이전 프레임의 차량 영역과 같은 차량인지 알기 위해서는 HSV 성분과 위치 정보의 통계적 특징을 이용한다. 제안된 방식의 효과를 검증하기 위해 노트북 PC와 PC용 CCD 카메라로 도로에서의 영상을 촬영하고 차량 및 차선 검출 알고리즘을 적용한 처리 시간, 정확도 및 차량검지 결과를 보인다.

The purpose of this study is to develop the models to predict the noise PCE (Passenger Car Equivalence) of large running vehicles through noise prediction models. The noises were measured at the distance of 7.5M, 11.0M, and 14.5M from the noise source with test vehicles running at the speed of 40 Km/h, 60 Km/h, and 80 Km/h while normal traffic were detoured. Total noise levels were measured while vehicles were running at given speeds, Engine noise level was considered as the noise of its idle running at the three vehicle speeds shown above friction noise level was ascertained by moving the vehicle at given speeds without the engin operating. The noise prediction models for each noise source were developed by factors which affect to the each noise level. As a result of this paper, the reduction of total vehicle noise by increasing the distance to the noise source from 10 M to 15 M is as much as that by dropping its speed from 60 Km/h to 40 Km/h. Also, the reduction of PCE of total noise of large vehicle by making the noise source to that by reducing its speed from 80 Km/h to 60 Km/h. Enging noise PCE, which is in range between 65 and 160, is larger than friction noise PCE which is in range 3.5 and 5.5. Engin noise is the main noise of the large vehicles while friction noise is that of the small vehicles. Machine noise for large vehicles, and engin noise for small vehicles should be tightly controlled to reduce the vehicle noise. A low noise engine and tire, and the shape of vehicle body are needed to be developed to reduce noise further.

최근에 스포츠유틸리티 차량이 점차 대중화되고 있다. 이것은 과거의 단순한 승용차 중심의 자동차 소비구조에서 보다 다양화 된 생활양식에 따라 보다 전문화 된 성능의 차량에 대한 수요가 늘어난 이유에서 인 것으로 보인다. 이러한 수요변화는 주 5일 근무에 의한 여가시간의 증가와 생활수준 향상에 따른 레저활동의 요구 증가 등도 원인이지만, 차량 자체의 성능향상과 차종 다양화 역시 중요한 요인으로 작용하고 있다. 자동차 발전의 역사 초기부터 다양한 유형의 다목적 차량들이 개발되고 사용되어오고 여는데, 이들은 미국의 $\ulcorner$지프$\lrcorner$에서 발전된 차량이 주류를 이루고 있다. 이 차량들은 여러 메이커들을 통해 각각의 기능적 전문성을 살린 다양한 정통적 유형과 복합개념의 차량들로 개발되고 있다. 복합개념의 차량들은 전반적으로 소형화를 추구하는 반면, 정통적 형태의 4륜 구동차량들은 대형화 및 고성능화 되는 양방향의 경향이 동시에 나타나고 있다. 향후에 이러한 경향은 다양한 메이커와 차종에서 확대되어 나타나게 될 것으로 예측된다.

To prevent the outbreak of infectious diseases that inflict huge economic and social losses, domestic livestock farms and related facilities have introduced automatic and semiautomatic disinfectant solution-spraying systems for vehicles. However, the facility standards and specifications vary by manufacturer, and no scientific performance evaluation has been conducted. The puropose of this study is to develop physical and biological evaluation methods. Physical and biological appraisals were conducted using two types of disinfection facilities (tunnel- and U-type) and two types of vehicles (passenger car, truck). Water-sensitive paper was used to evaluate the physical performance values for the disinfection facilities. In addition, to assess their biological performance, carriers containing low-pathogenic avian influenza virus were attached to vehicles, and the viral reduction was measured after the vehicles moved through the facility. The tunnel-type had rates of coverage in the range of 70-90% for the passenger car and 60-90% for the truck. At least 4-log virus reduction after spraying for 1-5 min was shown for both vehicles. For the U-type facility evaluation, the coverage rates were in the range of 60-90% for the passenger car and at least 90% for the truck. More than 4-log viral reduction was estimated within a spraying time of 5 min. To reduce viruses on the surface of vehicles by at least 4 log within a short period, the disinfectant solution should cover at least 71% of the pathogens. In conclusion, we were able to assess the physical and biological performance criteria for disinfection facilities aboard transportation vehicles.

Recently, as interest in eco-friendliness grows, the supply of hybrid electric vehicles and pure electric vehicles (EVs) for improving fuel efficiency of automobiles is rapidly expanding. The average daily energy consumption of electric vehicles is less than 20 [%] of the total ESS capacity of the vehicle, and research on additional functions using the ESS of the vehicle is urgently needed to expand the supply of electric vehicles. V2H(Vehicle to Home), like V2G(Vehicle to Grid), includes the concept of cooperating with system stabilization using ESS of electric vehicles. In addition, it includes various operations that can realize home welfare, such as uninterrupted power supply in case of power outage at home, and power supply for home DC devices. Therefore, in order to expand the supply of eco-friendly electric vehicles, it is urgently required to develop a V2H system with various functions that can realize home welfare. In this paper, we propose a V2H system with a CLLC resonant converter and a non-isolated step-up converter that can solve different impedance and resonant frequencies depending on the power transfer direction. The proposed V2H system is 6 [kVA] applicable to 150-450 [V], the voltage range that can use the ESS voltage for electric vehicles, and is designed with a capacity that can handle instantaneous electricity use at home. In addition, in order to verify the feasibility, an experiment by Psim simulation and prototype production was performed.

Test Results of noise, ride comfort and vibration tests are investigated for three kinds of light rail transit vehicles which have passed the performance test and the test criteria has been satisfied. Noise level of light rail transit vehicles was 64~69dB(A) at stop and 74~75dB(A) when operated at full speed. The ride comfort index according to UIC 513R was 2.02 to 2.45. Vibration level of rubber tired light rail transit vehicle was from 'normal' to 'good' and that of iron wheel light rail transit vehicle was 'good' to 'excellent'. These data are the results for three kinds of light rail transit vehicles and more data can be accumulated after further performance test. These data can be used for a reference for the design of light rail transit vehicles.

Maintaining track tension in tracked vehicles minimizes the excessive load on the tracks and prevents the peal-off of tracks from the road-wheel, and adequately guarantees the stable and improved driving of the tracked vehicles. However, the track tension cannot be easily measured due to the limitation in the sensor technology, harsh environment, etc. In this study, the track tension is estimated in realtime from the measurable signals of tracked vehicles and controlled based on a fuzzy logic controller. The proposed control system is implemented on tracked vehicles and its performance is evaluated under various driving conditions.

The objective of this paper is to estimate the PCE(Passenger Car Equivalents) of various vehicle types on expressway work zones. Headway samples of 5,359 vehicles were collected in 6 work zones in the Kyungbu Expressway between September and November of 1995. Average headways of 8 vehicle types based on the vehicle classification method of the Department of Construction and Transportation were calculated. A statistical test of effects of the types of the preceding vehicles were performed for the average headways between a vehicle type preceded by other vehicle types. The results show that the effects of the type of preceding vehicles are significant (exceeded 5% and 10% significance levels) and the PCEs of heavy vehicles on expressway work zones are higher than that of basic expressway section. Therefore, different adjustment factors should be applied for heavy vehicles in estimating saturation flow rates of expressway work zones. The study also derives an equation to determine PCEs of these vehicle types.
