레미콘의 품질성능을 좌우하는 것은 콘크리트 사용재료 및 배합뿐만 아니라 레미콘을 제조하는 믹서 및 이를 현장까지 운반하는 트럭 에지테이터의 품질성능에 크게 좌우된다. 그러나, 레미콘 공장의 혼합 설비인 믹서 및 트럭 에지테이터에 관한 국내 자료는 거의 전무한 실정이며 이에 관한 연구도 상대적으로 매우 부족하다. 특히, 최근에는 고강도 콘크리트, 고유동 콘크리트, 고강도 경량 콘크리트, 수중불분리 콘크리트, 섬유보강 콘크리트 등 고성능 콘크리트 성능에 대한 요구가 날로 증가하는 추세이며 이에 따라 레미콘 공장에서도 혼합설비 및 운반설비가 고성능화 되어 가는 추세이다.(중략)

To reduce fuel consumption by reducing the weight of the deck of a dump truck and to design an eco-friendly deck, accurate structural analysis is required. To date, the load on the deck has been calculated based on the hydrostatic pressure or by applying the earth pressure theory. However, these methods cannot be used to determine the non-uniformity of the load on the deck. Load distribution varies depending on the size distribution and interaction of aggregate particles. Compared with the finite element method, the discrete element method can simulate the behavior of aggregate particles more effectively. In this study, major properties were obtained by measuring bulk density and repose. The deck of a 15 ton dump truck was simulated using the obtained properties and bumping, breaking, and turning load conditions were applied. EDEM, which is a discrete element analysis software, was employed. The stress and strain distribution of the deck were calculated by NASTRAN and compared with the measured values. The study revealed that the results derived from a DEM simulation were more accurate than those based on mathematical assumption.

As the physical and mechanical properties of lightweight air-mixed soil change in the procedure of transportation of mix truck, it is necessary to assure whether the properties during construction satisfy those in design. In this study, variations of properties of mixed soil after transportation by mix truck are proved by field test. Lightweight air-mixed soil used field test the unit weight of $9.0{\pm}1.0kN/m^3$, the flow value of $190{\pm}20mm$ was produced. To analyze variations of properties of mixed soil the unit weight and flow value of the sample before and after transport was measured unconfined compressive strength tests were performed. Mixing time was 19~175 minutes diversified. As the test results, it is known that the density, the flow value and the unconfined compressive strength of lightweight air-mixed soil change by transportation, but these values satisfy the specifications of material of air-mixed soil. After transportation the average value of the unit weight and flow value change in the flow of the $(+)0.10kN/m^3$, 4.8 mm respectively, the average change in the unit weight and the flow value due to the mixing time was constant. And unconfined compressive strength of 28-day specimen increases from 20 to $150kN/m^2$. But, these values do not have some clear relationship with the transportation time within 175 minutes which is longest test time. Consequently, Within 175 minutes the changes of properties by transportation are too small to show some problems in the construction field.

In this study, the trucks(2.9-liter) have been developed to use DME as fuel, and performance test of the vehicle's DME engine, power, emissions, fuel economy and vehicle aspects was conducted. For experiments, the fuel system(common-rail injectors and high-pressure pump included) and the engine control logic was developed, and ECU mapping was performed. As a result, the rail pressure from 40MPa to approximately 65% increase compared to the base injector has been confirmed that. Also, the pump discharge flow is 15.5 kg/h when the fuel rail pressure is 400rpm(40MPa), and the pump discharge flow is 92.1 kg/h when the fuel rail pressure is 2,000rpm(40MPa). The maximum value of full-load torque capability is 25.5 kgfm(based on 2,000 rpm), and more than 90% compared to the level of the diesel engine were obtained. The DME vehicle was developed in this study, 120 km/h can drive to the stable, and calculated in accordance with the carbon-balance method of fuel consumptions is 5.7 km/L.

To reduce fuel consumption, research on the weight reduction of vehicles is being actively carried out. Researchers have typically tried to replace metal materials with composites materials, but these materials did not satisfy the required strength and rigidity of a vehicle. Composites are usually not used because of their high cost. There are incomplete studies on lightweight trucks that transport cargo. Therefore, in this paper, we enhance the lightness and mechanical strength through design optimization of the deck frame for a lightweight truck. For that purpose, the side member and cross member, which are mounted on the lower part of the truck to assure the safety of the vehicle and support the luggage load, were targeted. The result of numerical analysis on the safety of the frame was obtained by changing the shape of each cross-section. To verify the numerical analysis, we compared it with the theoretical value of a cantilever beam. As a result, the suitability of the cross-sectional shapes of each frame was confirmed through numerical analysis.

An aluminum radius rod using rheo-forging method has been developed for heavy commercial vehicles to decrease vehicle unsprung weight. To design the shape of the rod, structural simulations are performed using two load cases. To evaluate durability performance of the rods, a test system which has simultaneous 3 axes actuating system is developed. And 3 axes durability test conditions are established based on vehicle field tests. Using the test systems and the conditions, the durability test is carried out and the rods have passed the test conditions of 700,000 cycles. The weight of a developed aluminum radius rod is 4.2kg and it was drastically reduced by 48.8 percent in comparison with the weight of a steel radius rod.

The knuckle crane design in Korea has been performed by assuming a cantilever beam type structure and numerically analyzing design data and finally improving the stiffness by replacing material. In our study, a complete finite element model of the knuckle crane is constructed and finite element analysis is conducted using Optistruct. Structural optimization to reduce the weight of the knuckle crane is processed by applying maximum loading condition at the largest radius of motion, which is the worst case of loading condition. As the results, existing over stiff design in a knuckle crane is corrected to meet a desired design limit and overall weight is reduced, which eventually leads to a reduction of $CO_2$ emission.

4WD차의 특성은 출력이 뛰어남은 물론, 고속안정성을 추구하고 있으며, 견고한 차체로 이루어져 하물적재능력도 뛰어난 이른바 전천후 자동차라고 말할 수 있다. 4WD의 두드러진 특성은 전 시중 지프의 활약에서 나타났듯이 황무지, 사막 및 비포장도로에서의 주행능력이 우수한 것은 말할 것도 없으며 트럭 등에 이용되면서부터는 하물적재에 따른 주행능력의 감소도 극복하게 되 었다. 더욱이 오늘날에는 자동차에 대한 욕구가 다양해짐에 따라 각국에서는 고출력을 선호 하는 시대적 요구에 부응하여 미끄러운 노면에서의 안정주행 및 포장도로상에서의 고속안정성을 겸비한 4WD 차종의 개발을 서두르고 있다. 4WD 차는 기존 자동차의 능력을 확대시켜 노면의 조건에 구애받지 않고 자유롭게 주행할 수 있는 전천후 자동차로 개발되기는 하였지만 이에 따 르는 소음, 연비, 에너지 손실 등의 문제가 완전히 해결된 것은 아니다. 또한 악조건 상에서 운 행하는 만큼 차체의 경량화, 기관의 소형화 및 균형유지 등의 제반 사항을 해결하기 위해서도 노 력을 기울이지 않으면 안된다.

The armature core is a part responsible for the skeleton of the steering wheel. Currently, in the case of commercial trucks, the main parts of the parts are manufactured separately and then the product is produced through welding. In the case of this production method, quality and cost problems of the welded parts occur, and an integrated armature core made of magnesium alloy is used in passenger vehicles. However, in the case of commercial trucks, there is no application case and research is insufficient. Therefore, this study aims to develop an all-in-one armature core that simultaneously applies a magnesium alloy material and a die casting method to reduce the weight and improve the quality of the existing steel armature core. The product was modeled based on the shape of a commercial product, and finite element analysis (FEA) was performed through Ls-dyna, a general-purpose analysis program. Through digital image correlation (DIC) and uniaxial tensile test, the accurate physical properties of the material were obtained and applied to the analysis. A total of four types of compression were applied by changing the angle and ground contact area of the product according to the actual reliability test conditions. analysis was carried out. As a result of FEA, it was confirmed that damage occurred in the spoke area, and spoke thickness (t_spoke), base thickness (t_base), and rim and spoke connection (R) were designated as design variables, and the total weight and maximum equivalent stress occurring in the armature core We specify an objective function that simultaneously minimizes . A prediction function was derived using the sequential response surface method to identify design variables that minimized the objective function, and it was confirmed that it was improved by 22%.
