All-wheel steering (AWS) system is applied to articulated vehicles to reduce turning radius. The swing-out suppression algorithm is applied to AWS ECU, a key component of AWS system. The swing-out suppression algorithm applied to AWS ECU has a problem when velocity of vehicle is changed. In this paper, new algorithm based on moving distance that solve velocity problem is proposed. The HILS simulation and the test articulated bus is used to validate algorithm.

Recently, novice driver or weak drivers was difficult to understand the movement characteristics of the car and are immature sense of width and length of the car according to various each driver's sex and age, model. To complement this problem, the use of rear sensor and the camera is increased. And the parking assistance system that improves the convenience of parking the driver is being developed. Accordingly, parking guide system is needed to reflect the difference in the steering angle and correct the error distance. In this study, it is proposed that the turning radius during backward by complementing the existing Ackerman Jentaud type. And it develops more accurate parking guideline to be able to generat algorithm by applying the formula to propose a steering wheel angle sensor value derived through the handle.

In this research a moving platform for a mobile robot which can run with upright posture is proposed. It is able to stand with standing arms and run uprightly based on an inverted pendulum mechanism. Conventional mobile robots generally may equip 4 wheels or 3 wheels including a caster and have good statistic stability. They need a steering mechanism to choose which way to go since they have a square or rectangular configuration with multiple wheels. When a mobile robot meets a sharply perpendicular and narrow crossroad, it may need a special steering scheme such as going forward and backward repeatedly or it sometimes cannot even pass through the crossroad because of its size. The proposed moving platform for a mobile robot changes to a upright posture which has a small planar area and is able to pass through the crossroad. We propose a moving platform for a mobile robot with a inverted pendulum mechanism and standing arms which can make the mobile robot upright.

Recently, the consideration of eco-friendly technology to reduce greenhouse gas is being emphasized in the aviation field. Various studies for applying electro-mechanical actuators that control mechanical linear and rotational movements using electricity as the primary power source are in progress. In this study, the fatigue analysis of the electro-mechanical actuator for the front wheel steering of a single aisle aircraft was carried out. A unit load stress table was constructed for the vulnerable part selected through structural analysis, and the representative stress for each load profile was calculated using the unit load stress table constructed for the vulnerable part. Then, individual profiles of representative stress group were extracted from continuous load profiles by applying the rainflow counting method. The damage of each profile was calculated by applying the S-N diagram. Finally, the total damage in the vulnerable parts was calculated by the linear cumulative damage law, and the fatigue life of the electro-mechanical actuator for the front wheel steering of a single aisle aircraft was evaluated.

This paper dedcribes the design. verification, and analysis techniques for an advanced phased array antenna. When applying an active phased array antenna to an aircraft or missile, miniaturization of the array antenna and wide-angle beam steering characteristics can be unavoidable antenna design considerations. In particular, the active reflection coefficient characteristics when electronically steering a wide-angle beam is a design parameter that must be minimized in terms of system survival and system performance. As a radiator suitable for broadband characteristics and wide-angle beam steering, this paper designed an array structure using SFN and minimized the active reflection coefficient according to beam steering of up to 40° based on the spherical coordivate system angle. The bandwidth of the radiator was confirmed to be 3GHz based on active reflection in the Ka-band. In addition, the performance of the actually manufactured 8by8 array antenna wsa analyzed by measuring the single pattern of the radiator through a near-field test, mathematically synthesizing it, and predicting the Tx/TRx beam used in the seeker system.

In this study a moving platform for a mobile robot that can be traveling with a full automatic standing arm was developed. Conventional mobile robots generally may equip 4 wheels or 3 wheels with a caster wheel or independent driven wheels and have good statistic stability. When a mobile robot travels on a sharply perpendicular and narrow crossroad, it may need a special steering scheme such as going forward and backward repeatedly or it is sometimes physically impossible for the robot to go through the crossroad because of the size limit. The upright running mobile robot changes its posture to the upright posture which has a small planar area and is able to go through the crossroad. The upright control which was manually performed step by step before such as sequences of uprighting (returning), checking, and balancing, is now automated.

본 연구의 목적은 DGPS와 자이로 센서를 장착하여 무인으로 콤바인을 직선주행, 선회 및 곡선주행, 직진주행 중 1 m 오프셋(offset) 주행시켰을 때, 무인 자율주행의 성능을 분석하고 개선하는데 있다. 콤바인의 무인자율주행 시스템은 콤바인의 현재위치를 인식하고, 주행하고 있는 콤바인의 주행방향을 감지하여 미리 설정된 경로를 따라 자율적으로 주행하며, 주행 중에 장애물이 검출되면 정지할 수 있도록 개발하였다. 콤바인의 무인 자율주행시스템은 DGPS의 입력 신호로부터 콤바인의 현재위치를 결정하고, 자이로 센서의 입력신호로부터 주행방향을 알 수 있다. 또한 장애물의 감지를 위한 초음파 센서, 콤바인의 주행방향을 조정하는 유압 작동부, 좌.우의 조향레버를 조정하는 서보모터 시스템, 마이크로 컴퓨터로 구성된 제어기와 입출력 인터페이스로 구성되어 있다. 콤바인 자율주행시스템의 프로그램은 DGPS 신호, 자이로 센서 등을 수신하는 수신 프로그램, DGPS 신호등으로부터 관련 변수들을 분석하여 콤바인의 조향수준을 결정하고, 유압실린더 등을 제어하는 제어 프로그램과 콤바인의 이동경로를 저장하는 저장 프로그램으로 구성되어 있다. 콤바인의 무인주행 실험결과 RMS 오차는 50 m 직선주행에서 7.52 cm, 20 m 직선주행 후 1 m 오프셋 된 30 m의 직선주행에서 21.85 cm, 20 m 직선주행 후 90$^{\circ}$선회하여 25 m 직선주행에서 7.55 cm, 반지름 23 m의 원주 사분면 곡선주행에서는 25.98 cm로 각각 나타났다. 소 구획의 포장에서 벼는 가로 방향으로 25~30 cm, 세로 방향으로 15~20 cm의 간격으로 심어져 있다. DGPS 신호에 의한 위치 결정을 할 때 자체 오차 10 cm를 고려하여도 콤바인이 직선구간 및 선회구간을 주행하며 수확작업이 가능함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 곡선구간에서는 최대오차가 65.5 cm로 매우 크게 나타나, 콤바인을 무인 자율주행으로 수확하기에는 어려움이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 실제 포장은 이론적인 완전한 직선보다는 작은 굴곡이 있는 곡선의 형태가 이루어져 있으므로 주행 오차를 감소하기 위해서는 기계시각을 이용하면 보다 정밀한 조향을 이룰 수 있을 것으로 예상된다. 포장에서 DGPS 신호, 자이로 센서 등을 이용한 콤바인의 무인주행 장치는 무인 수확작업을 위한 가능성을 보여주었고, 일부의 센서의 기능을 개선하면 만족한 성능을 나타낼 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

This paper proposes an analytical redundancy technique for fault diagnostics of the sensor in steer-by-wire system. We use incorporating vehicle dynamics modeling into the design of a diagnostic system for steer-by-wire system. The use of a model of vehicle dynamics improves the speed and accuracy of the diagnoses. The proposed fault diagnostics algorithm is based on parity-space methods to generate residuals. To reduce the effects of modeling uncertainty and dynamic transients, the residuals are subject to filtering. We construct diagnostic system consisting residual threshold for detection and isolator with using the directional residual vector.
