자동차용 Alloy Wheel은 차량의 수직하중이나 가로 방향 하중, 구동, 제동토크 등 주행 시에 발생하는 여러 형태의 응력을 받으면서 사용되므로 이러한 응력을 견딜 수 있는 강성은 물론 차량 부품으로서의 요구 수명도 만족하여야 한다. 알루미늄 휠은 개발 후 규격에 준하는 내구성 평가를 위하여 반경 방향 부하 내구시험과 굽힘모멘트 내구시험과 주행 중 요철이나 벽돌 등에 의한 노면으로부터 갑작스런 하중에 대한 내충격성 평가를 위한 충격시험이 실행되고 있다. 이러한 시험은 많은 시간이 소요되고 있으며, 또한 시험 중 불합격 판정이 날 경우 또다시 처음의 공정을 모두 거쳐 다시 시험을 하게 된다. 3 Piece와 같은 알루미늄 휠은 여러 공정에 의한 생산되어지기 때문에 많은 시간적, 물질적 손실이 일어나고 있다. 따라서 자동차용 알루미늄 휠의 요구조건을 충분히 만족시키며 소비자의 요구에 맞는 품질과 시간을 충족시켜 기업경쟁력 확보는 물론 원가절감에 의한 기업 경쟁력 향상을 위하여 설계 단계서부터 시험조건을 고려한 내구성 해석에 의한 알루미늄 휠의 시험횟수를 단축하고자 한다. 본 논문에서는 3 Piece 알루미늄 휠의 축(shaft)하중에 의한 내구성 평가에 대하여 CAE시스템을 이용하여 보다 빠르고 정확한 결과를 산출함으로서 설계시간의 단축은 물론 다양한 형상의 제품들을 설계단계에서부터 생산에 이르기까지의 해석활용법을 수립하고자 하였다.

Torsional vibrations, such as the gear rattle of the manual transmission in vehicle systems, are correlated with the firing stroke from the engine. These vibro-impacts can be examined based upon linear time-invariant analysis. In order to understand the gear dynamics, a specific manual transmission with a front-engine front-wheel drive configuration is investigated. A method to reduce the degrees of freedom is suggested based upon the eigensolutions and frequency response functions, which will lead to the development of an efficient matrix size. The dynamic characteristics of single- and dual-mass flywheels are then compared. The effect of the dual-mass flywheel is investigated based upon the mobility analysis, which will lead to understanding of the concepts for avoiding vibro-impacts. A linear time-invariant system model is examined by employing the effective clutch stiffness from a two-stage clutch damper. Thus, the relationship between the dynamic characteristics and the clutch damper can be predicted by assuming a combination of different stage stiffness levels.

Flexible display는 플라스틱 등 휠 수 있는 기판에 만들어진 평판 디스플레이로, 우수한 표시특성을 그대로 가지면서 접거나 구부리거나 두루마리 형태로 변형이 가능하기 때문에 현재의 평판 디스플레이 시장의 차세대 기술로 평가되어 전세계적으로 급격한 연구가 이루어지고 있다. Flexible display는 원리적으로 종이와 같은 수 센티미터 이내로 휘거나, 구부리거나, 말 수 있는 얇고 유연한 기판을 사용하게 되며, 기존의 딱딱한 유리기판을 사용하는 디스플레이와는 달리 가볍고, 얇고, 내충격성이 강하며, 구부림이 자유롭다. 본 고에서는 flexible display의 핵심 기술, 주요기관의 최근 flexibledisplay 연구 개발동향 및 발전전망 등에 대하여 살펴보기로 한다.

There have been many researches about SUGV (Small Unmanned Ground Vehicle) mechanism regarding off-road mobility and obstacle negotiation. This paper introduces an analysis of geometry parameters to enhance the vertical obstacle negotiation ability for the SUGV. Moreover, this paper proposes an anti-shock structure analysis of wheels to protect the main body of the SUGV when it falls off a vertical obstacle. Major system geometry parameters will be determined under certain constraints. The constraints and optimization problem for maximizing the ability of vertical obstacle negotiation will be presented and discussed. Dynamic simulation results and experiments with manufactured platform will also be presented to validate the analysis. Several types of wheel materials and structures will be compared to determine the best anti-shock wheel design through FEM (Finite Element Method) simulations.

The application of sulfur polymer emulsion (SPE) as an acrylate substitute for semi-rigid pavement grout was evaluated, and the performance improvement by employing PVA fibers were also evaluated. The result indicated that the filling ratio of semi-rigid pavement material decreased as the fiber content increased, but it was measured to be 92~94% in every mixing condition, which satisfies the target performance, 90%. The maximum Marshall stability value of semi-rigid pavement material was measured to be 25.4 kN, which is about 4.7 times higher than the Korean Standard required for semi-rigid pavement material, 5.0 kN. The dynamic stability evaluation of semi-rigid pavement material indicated that the resistance to deformation from the wheel tracking test was improved by an SPE substitution, and in every mixing condition, the deformation converged to a constant value after 45 minutes with the same dynamic stability of 31,500 times/mm. The strain at the flexural failure was about 0.53%, which shows superior rigidity to asphalt pavements. The examination of abrasion resistance and impact resistance showed that the loss ratio was 9.8~6.0% in every mixing condition, which indicates a good abrasion resistance. Also, when fiber content ratio was 0.3%, the impact resistance was 2.82 times higher compared to plain (i.e., when fibers were not added). In the limited range of this study, an SPE substitution ratio of 30% was found to be an optimal level considering the mechanical and durability performance. In addition, it is thought that semi-rigid pavement material with superior performance could be manufactured if fiber content ratio up to 0.3% is applied depending on the purpose of use.

This paper presents the accelerometer which is a key component of TPMS(Tire Pressure Monitoring System). Generally a piezoresistive accelerometer has characteristics of lower cost, better linearity and better immunity about the environmnet noise than a capacitive one. Three types of piezoresistive accelerometers are degined and simulated using ANSYS program. The best one is a piezoresistive sensor which is supported by four beams located at the center of the edge of the mass after comparing the characteristics of resonant frequency of the three types. Considering the sensor size and a simulated maximum stress and maximum displacement, the length of beams is set as $200{\mu}m$. The size of a piezoresistive accelerometer is $3.0mm{\times}3.0mm{\times}0.4mm$. The sensor output is characterized by measuring the output characteristic depending on angle. As a result the offset voltage of the accelerometer is 43.2 mV and its sensitivity is $42.5{\mu}V/V/g$. The temperature bias drift is measured. The shock durability of the sensor is 1500g and the measuring range is 0 ~ 60 g.
