With the development of the automobile industry, technologies for parts of an automobile with more convenient functions have progressed, but the manual clutch developed at the first phase of inventing means of transport still remains at the early stage of the automatic transmission despite numerous research and efforts. The traditional automatic transmission is mainly used in small cars and personal RV vehicles that include the slipped clutch disk. However, this research seeks an innovative technology that can be applied to all types of transportation operating the clutch, such as small cars, large vehicles, farm machines and vessels. In order to accurately decide the joint timing of the clutch disk according to the output of engine power that differs depending on driving conditions of vehicles, and to apply the half clutch state which frequently occurs in the manual transmission, the rpm of the engine can be used as the base to decide the joint timing of the clutch disk. This research has developed an electronic clutch module that can transmit the engine power by moving and jointing the clutch disk as much as the engine rpm increases.

The number of electronic embedded software in vehicle system is ever increasing for years. As a result, the electronic control units have been growing dramatically, and it is required to mutual link between these units. Due to separate API each and every embedded platform, it is difficult to develop and integrate in automotive industry. The AUTOSAR project consists suppliers and manufacturers, and the partnership is a standardized platform to establish and develop an industry standard. On the previous works, we implemented the RTE generated module design based on AUTOSAR architecture. This paper specifically focuses on the testing of the development tool that generates RTE source code. The result satisfied a need for a RTE requirements and AUTOSAR methodology in a vehicle applications.

One of the issues of the automotive industry today is autonomous driving vehicles. In order to achieve level 3 or higher as defined by SAE International, harmonization of autonomous driving technology and connected technology is essential. Current vehicles have new features such as autonomous driving, which not only increases the number of electrical components, but also the amount and complexity of software. As a result, the attack surface, which is the access point of attack, is widening, and software security vulnerabilities are also increasing. However, the reality is that the essential security requirements for vehicles are not defined. In this paper, based on real attacks and vulnerability cases and trends, we identify the assets in the in-vehicle network and derive the threats. We also defined the security requirements and derived essential security requirements that should be applied at least to the safety of the vehicle occupant through risk analysis.

Today, in order to improve fuel efficiency and dynamic behavior of automobiles, an era of light weight and simplification of automobile parts is being formed. In order to simplify and design and manufacture the shape of the product, various components are integrated. For example, in order to commercialize three products into one product, product processing is occurring to a very narrow area. In the case of existing parts, precision die casting or casting production is used for processing convenience, and the multi-piece method requires a lot of processes and reduces the precision and strength of the parts. It is very advantageous to manufacture integrally to simplify the processing air and secure the strength of the parts, but if a deep and narrow pocket part needs to be processed, it cannot be processed with the equipment's own spindle. To solve a problem, research on cutting processing is being actively conducted, and multi-axis composite processing technology not only solves this problem. It has many advantages, such as being able to cut into composite shapes that have been difficult to flexibly cut through various processes with one machine tool so far. However, the reality is that expensive equipment increases manufacturing costs and lacks engineers who can operate the machine. In the five-axis cutting processing machine, when producing products with deep and narrow sections, the cycle time increases in product production due to the indirectness of tools, and many problems occur in processing. Therefore, dedicated machine tools and multi-axis composite machines should be used. Alternatively, an angle spindle may be used as a special tool capable of multi-axis composite machining of five or more axes in a three-axis machining center. Various and continuous studies are needed in areas such as processing vibration absorption, low heat generation and operational stability, excellent dimensional stability, and strength securing by using the angle spindle.

실린더 형태의 유전체 관에 나선형으로 도전체 안테나를 설치하는 타입의 유도 결합 플라즈마원은 간단한 구조로 화학 조성 분석용부터 나노 분말 제조, 반도체용 식각/증착, 표면 처리, 자동차 및 일반 산업 부품용 증착 보조원등으로 널리 사용되고 있다. 고밀도 라디칼/이온의 공급을 위해서 투입 전력을 증가시키는 경우 높은 전력 밀도로 인해서 유전체 관에 인가되는 열응력이 대기압 및 관 고정용 구조물에 의한 구조 응력에 더해져서 파손에 이르는 경우가 발생될 수 있다. 실제 실린더 길이 전체를 안테나 코일로 감는 경우에도 플라즈마 발생 밀도가 높은 지역은 중심 일부 영역에 국한 되는 공정 영역도 있어서 이에 대한 분석이 필요하다. CFD-ACE+를 이용하여 플라즈마의 생성, 냉각수의 열전도, 외부 공냉식 팬의 역할등에 대해서 수치 모델을 작성하여 검토하였다. 나선형 냉각코일의 경우 냉각수량을 일정값 이상으로 증가시키는 경우 유속이 지나치게 빨라져서 열원이 있는 내경쪽 표면에서 열전도가 유속에 비례해서 증가하지 못하는 단점이 발생할 수 있으며 냉각팬의 경우 일반적으로 장치 내부에 대해서만 모델링을 하는 데 실제로 전체 시스템의 주변에서 공기의 흐름을 넓게 해석해야 실제 냉각 효과를 파악할 수 있다. 심한 경우 냉각용 공기 흡입구와 토출구의 간격이 좁아서 열원에 의해서 가열된 공기의 상당량이 다시 냉각용 공기 흡입구로 재순환 되는 경우도 발생하기 쉽다.

Self-driving technology is changing the paradigm of automotive industry. Since it is imperative to converge this emerging technology with ICT and there is a time lag between securing this emerging technology and occurrence of firm performance, it is difficult to make decisions on technology development. This study investigates patent indicators to understand the impact of self-driving technology on performance of automotive parts companies. We analyze 611 of self-driving technology patents from 2000 to 2016 and the financial performance of 270 small and medium businesses that register the corresponding patents with consideration of up to four years of time lag. Our analysis results show that patents related to self-driving has a positive impact on asset growth of 2 years and sales growth of 3 years in terms of time lag. This study contributes to the literature by analyzing the impact of technology development on the firm performance in case of convergence of the automotive and ICT industries. Additionally, this study provides a role of patent in knowledge management planning through technology development as a practical implication.

최근 수송기기 및 전자부품산업에서의 성능향상 요구에 따라 경량고강도 비철금속재료의 수요가 증대되고 있다. 특히, 세계적으로 에너지 절약 및 환경 공해 규제가 대폭 강화됨에 따라 자동차, 항공기 등 수송기기의 소재경량화 소재로 낮은 밀도 기계적 가공성이 우수한 마그네슘 합금이 각광을 받고 있다. 그러나 Mg합금은 알루미늄 합금과는 달리 보호성 산화피막이 형성되지 않아 내식성 및 고온강도가 매우 취약하다. 이를 보안하기 위해서 본 연구에서는 마그네슘의 강도 개선을 위한 원소로써 고용강화 원소로 많이 쓰이는 Zn과 입자 미세화로 인한 항복강도를 증가시키는 Mn의 3원계 합금에 고온에서 안정한 Mg2Sn상이 형성되는 Sn을 첨가하여 시효처리에 따른 기계적 특성과 미세조직을 관찰하였다. 실험 이전에 Pandat Program에 의한 열역학적 분석을 바탕으로 Mg-Zn-Mn 및 Mg-Zn-Mn-Sn의 상태도 계산 및 MgZn와 Mg2Sn 석출분율을 예측하였다. 열역학 계산을 통해 도출된 석출온도를 통해 Mg-Zn-Mn 및 Mg-Zn-Mn-Sn 합금의 열처리에 따른 경도 및 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 또한, 기계적 특성을 평가하기 위해 상온 및 고온 인장시험을 실시하였고 XRD, SEM을 이용하여 석출상을 분석하였다.

본 논문에서는 당사인 경신공업(주)와 스미토모전장(주)와의 기술제휴를 통한 신제품 개발 프로젝트를 통하여 진행 한 연구 내용이다. 현재 자동차의 주요 부품 중 하나인 Dash-Grommet는 실외에서 실내부로 직부되는 부분으로 방수성이 주요한 성능이다. 이에 따라 현재 방수성 향상을 위해 볼팅으로 씰링을 하는 구조로서 브라켓트를 적용하고 있으며, 볼팅 툴 사용에 따른 홀 위치가 센터로 이동함에 따라 와이어 하네스 성형성을 위해 프로텍터를 적용하고 있다. 이와 관련하여 작업자의 툴 사용에 따른 산업재해(근골격계)요인 및 원가 상승의 원인이 되고 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 그로멧 씰링구조를 최적화하여 브라켓트를 삭제시키고, 인간 공학적 구조 검토를 통한 저삽입력 구조의 Dash-Grommet 개발에 그 목적을 두었다. 그로멧 3중 씰링 구조를 이용하여 주요 성능인 방수(침수/살수) 성능에 대한 문제를 해결하였으며, 내부 파이프 구조를 이용하여 와이어를 통한 수분 유입에 대한 수밀 대책이 마련 되도록 하였다. 또한, 돌기부 구조를 이용하여 차량 장착시 판넬 접촉면을 최소화 함으로써 실제차량 장착 작업시 저삽입력을 가능하게 하였으며, 이와 더불어 홈부 구조를 이용하여 차량 장착시 그로멧의 수축을 용이하게 함으로써 새로운 그로멧 삽입 메커니즘을 구현하여 기존 대비 40~50%의 저 삽입력 그로멧을 개발할 수 있었다.

Magnesium has been used as parts of vehicles, case materials of notebook PC and mobile phone, and its demand has been increasing recently. Its extraction technologies were classified according to the two major reduction methods: the fused salt electrolysis and the thermal reduction method. A research on the extraction of magnesium from magnesite which has been being carried out at KIGAM was briefly introduced here. Magnesium was prepared using a fused salt electrolysis method through preparation of anhydrous magnesium chloride with lab scale experiments.
