The critical speed of railway bogie is very important in terms of the verification of the vehicle design procedure and safety. The dynamic performance of bogie is tested on the railway roller rig in a laboratory in place of field testing on track. But, the testing on the full scale roller rig caused many problems relating to test costs, test time and has the difficulty in test condition setup. To overcome these problems, scaled models were used in the filed of railway vehicle design and test. In this paper, we have studied the critical speed of scaled bogie model. We have made the 1/5 scaled bogie, the scaled roller rig and analyzed the critical speed of the scaled bogie through the numerical simulation and running test of the scaled bogie. We have confirmed that the analysis results of the critical speed correspond with the test results.

The numerical analysis of the reduction of reaction mechanism for the ignition of dimethyl ether (DME) was performed. On the basis of a detailed reaction mechanism involving 79 species and 351 reactions, the peak molar concentration and sensitivity analysis were conducted in a homogeneous reactor model. The reduced reaction mechanism involving 44 species and 166 reactions at the threshold value $7.5{\times}10^{-5}$ of the molar peak concentration was established by comparing the ignition delays the reduced mechanism with those the detailed mechanism. The predicted results of the reduced mechanism applied to the single-zone homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) engine model were in agreement with those of the detailed mechanism. Therefore, this reduced mechanism can be used to accurately simulate the ignition and combustion process of compression ignition engine using DME fuel.

To predict the dynamics behavior, running stability, etc. of a railway vehicle and to understand its physical characteristics, analytical methods are used for the testing and manufacturing of a scale model along with numerical simulations in developed countries (England, France, Japan, etc.). The test of the dynamics characteristics of full-scale models is problematic in that it is expensive and time-consuming because an entire large-scale test plant needs to be constructed, difficulties are involved in the test configuration, etc. To overcome these problems, an analytical study involving dynamics tests and computer simulations using a scaled bogie model that applies the laws of similarity was carried out. In this study, we performed stability analysis on a 1/5 small scaled bogie for parameters such as the running speed and carbody weight by using an analysis model. Furthermore, we verified the reliability by using a small-scaled derailment simulator and examined the dynamic characteristic of the 1/5 small scaled bogie.

In this paper, we proposed development of improved model reduction and design of common controller using reduction model. The Algorithm of improved model reduction considered the transient response and the steady-state response in response curve. The generalized controller is designed not only to ensure specified phase margin and iso-damping property also optimized smith-predictor controller about real model using reduction model. Simulation examples are given to show the better performance of the proposed method than convention methods.

This paper presents a validation of the accuracy of a reduced order model(ROM) and the efficiency of the design optimization using a Proper Orthogonal Decomposition(POD) to transonic wing/fuselage system. Three dimensional Euler equations are solved to extrude snapshot data of the full order aerodynamic analysis, and then a set of POD basis vectors reproducing the behavior of flow around the wing/fuselage system is calculated from these snapshots. In this study, reduced order model constructed through this procedure is applied to several validation cases, and then it is confirmed that the ROM has the capability of the prediction of flow field in the space of interest. Additionally, after the design optimization of the wing/fuselage system with the ROM is performed, results of the ROM are compared with results of the design optimization using response surface model(RSM). From these, it can be confirmed that the design optimization with the ROM is more efficient than RSM.

Numerical simulation and experimental study to evaluate the critical speed of the railway bogie according to the tread inclination of wheel profile were conducted using 1/5 scale model. It has been shown that the results of the critical speed analysis for the scale bogie model is very close to the test results using scale bogie model and the critical speed is decreased in proportion to the increase of equivalent conicity of wheel profile. Results of this study show that the scale model could be applied to research area relating to vehicle stability as an alternative to overcome the experimental problems caused by full scale test on the roller rig.

A dynamically scaled model of the catenary with a nominal scaling factor of 18.5:1 is designed and constructed. The motivation for developing such a model is the great difficulty of making accurate measurements on the full-scale catenary and the difficulty of making experimental modifications to it. The scaled model is designed to be dynamically equivalent to the full scale catenary with respect to the mass and elastic strength. The scaled model is partially verified by comparing linear vibration and wave characteristics with those predicted by the simulation study.

In design of prestressed concrete structures, structural analysis is performed normally several times for selection of adequate sectional dimension and tendon amount. Especially for precast segmental multi-span bridges. time consuming structural analysis process due to time dependent material properties and structural system change could be effectively reduced by use of a reduced-span bridge model. 5-span and 3-span bridges are selected as reduced-span models for the 10-span full bridge to investigate the acceptability in practical design. The analytical results of deflection, total moment, statical moment, and ultimate moment of the reduced span-models are compared with those of the 10-span full bridge. Application of the load factors to structural analysis for ultimate moment calculation in prestressed concrete is reviewed and a rational method is proposed.

The Korean government developed an organizational maturity model for public data quality management based on international standards to evaluate the data quality management level of public organizations, However, as the model has too many indicators to apply on the site, a new model with reduced number of indicators is proposed in this paper. First, the number of processes is reduced by integrating and modifying the processes of the previous model. Second, a new maturity evaluation method is proposed based on capability levels focused on the activity, not on the process. Third, the maturity level of public data quality management is represented by five discrete levels or real values of 1 through 5. Finally, characteristics of the proposed model are compared with those of the previous model.
