In this study, the acceleration performance improvement was analyzed for a 2-speed transmission applied EV. An EV simulator was developed to analyze the EV acceleration performance. The EV simulator includes a load transfer model between the front and rear. Thus, the EV simulator can analyze the acceleration performance difference between the front-and rear-wheel drive EVs. From the simulation results, it is deduced that the acceleration performance can be improved by 7.96% for the front-wheel drive EV and 16.10% for the rear-wheel drive EV. The 2-speed transmission can improve the acceleration performance without decreasing its maximum velocity. Moreover, the 2-speed transmission can improve the acceleration performance of the rear wheel drive more than that of the front-wheel drive EV.

The purpose of this paper is to construct a control algorithm for improving the driving efficiency of 4-wheel-drive in-wheel electric vehicles. The main parts of the vehicle were modeled and the input-output relations of signals were summarized using MATLAB/Simulink. A performance simulator for 4-wheel-drive in-wheel electric vehicles was developed based on the co-simulation environment with a commercial dynamic behavior analysis program called Carsim. Moreover, for improving the driving efficiency of vehicles, a torque distribution algorithm, which distributes the torque to the front and rear wheels, was included in the performance simulator. The effectiveness of the torque distribution algorithm was validated by the SOC simulation using the FTP-75 driving cycle.

Test of Caterpillar Challenger 65 tractor which has rubber tracks, and articulated four wheel drive tractor with dual wheels and a mechanical front wheel drive tractor were conducted on an unplowed and plouwed wheat stubble field. The following parameters were analyzed : tractive efficiency (ηv), net tractive coefficient ($\phi$n), slip ($\sigma$) , drawbar pull(Fv), drawbar power (Pv) and forward velocity(v). The maximum net tractive coefficient was established at the tractive efficiency of 0.60 on the unplowed wheat stubble field : for the Challenger 65 tractor 0.855 ; 4WD 0.624 and MFWD 0.534 and on the plowed wheat stubble field with the tractive efficiency of 0.40 for the Challenger 65 tractor 0.82 : 4WD 0.57 and for tractor MFWD 0.48.

The purpose of this study is based on the electromagnet robot with a four-wheel drive which can climb up and down on structures of iron wall instead of human workers. Many of studies strive to develop wall riding-robots in terms of absorption system. However, the system needs additional devices too much to work out as well as electromagnetic wheel system also has much expense to make it. In this regard, this study makes efforts to find the way how to keep steady distance between wheel and wall while using general electromagnet to reduce motor load and to move robot so easily.

In a four-wheel independent drive platform, four wheels and motors are connected directly, and the rotation of the motors generates the power of the platform. It uses a skid steering system that steers based on the difference in rotational power between wheel motors. The platform can control the speed of each wheel individually and has excellent mobility on dirt roads. However, the difficulty of the straight-running is caused due to torque distribution variation in each wheel's motor, and the direction of rotation of the wheel, and moving direction of the platform, and the difference of the platform's target direction. This paper describes an algorithm to detect the slip generated on each wheel when a four-wheel independent drive platform is traveling in a harsh environment. When the slip is detected, a compensation control algorithm is activated to compensate the torque of the motor mounted on the platform to improve the trajectory tracking performance of the platform. The four-wheel independent drive platform developed for this study verified the algorithm. The wheel slip detection and the compensation control algorithm of the platform are expected to improve the stability of trajectory tracking.

자동차의 구동방식은 전륜구동, 후륜구동, 4륜구동의 방식이 있다. 구동방식에서 운전자가 원하는 방향으로 전환하는 것과 바퀴에 동력을 전달하여 구동하는 두 가지의 역할을 수행하는데 있어 가장 중요한 부품이 등속 조인트이다. 도로상에서 주행 시에는 노면의 상태에 따라서 동력을 전달하는 부품들에 충격이 가해질 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 각각 샤프트의 길이가 다른 3개의 등속 조인트 각 모델들은 CATIA로 모델링하였고 ANSYS를 이용하여 구조 및 피로해석을 수행하였다. 본 연구 결과로는 Model 2가 다른 모델 대비 뛰어난 내구성을 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 결과를 이용하여 충격에 대한 내구성을 가지는 등속 조인트 설계를 할 때에 유용한 자료가 될 것이라고 사료되며, 등속 조인트의 디자인을 융합기술에 접목하여 미적 감각을 나타낼 수 있다.

Torsional vibration is to vibrate strongly when the ignition pulses of the engine is excited with natural frequency of driveline. Torsional vibration like this can cause various noises as rattle and booming. For this study multi-degree of freedom analysis model of torsional vibration, which is combined with mass moment of inertia and torsional spring, was developed toward two wheel drive, four wheel drive and torsional vibration characteristics were compared and analyzed through the natural frequences, mode shapes and frequency response characteristics which was acquired by the simulation of it. The pertinence of that model was proved by the field test and the outcome of the simulations coincided with feeling test. Therefore, four wheel drive simulation model is considered to be useful thing for reducing torsional vibration of driveline and developing full-time four wheel drive vehicles.

사륜구동은 구동력을 4바퀴에 모두 전달하기 때문에 노면과의 접지력이 상승하여 구동력이 상승한다. 하지만 그로 인해 연비가 저하되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 평소에 이륜구동으로 주행하다가 필요에 의해 선택적 사륜구동으로 변환하는 방법으로 사륜구동을 많이 사용한다. 이러한 선택적 사륜구동은 운전자가 보내는 전기적 신호를 Transfer case에서 기계적으로 바꿔서 구동력을 변환시킨다. 본 연구에서는 전기적 신호를 기계적으로 바꿔주기 위해 모터에 감속기를 적용하여 토크를 증대시켜 기능을 수행하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 구동을 변환시켜주기 위해 적용되는 Transfer case내부에 있는 모터에 적용할 수 있는 감속메커니즘을 도출하고 그에 따른 유성기어형태를 적용한 감속비를 최적화하였다. 그리고 도출된 감속비를 토대로 링기어를 공통으로 사용하는 유성기어 2세트를 적용하여 입력축과 출력축이 동일상에서 감속이 진행되는 유성기어 기어치형의 개발 및 Transfer csae 내에 있는 구동변환장치 구동부의 최적화 설계를 진행하였다.

The present pesticide application technology widely used with a power sprayer in Korea is assessed as the problem awaiting solution in the point of view of its ineffectiveness, inefficiency, and environmental contamination. As one approach to get rid of these problems, the boom spraying with ultra-low volume and precision application technology has been recommended. The study was undertaken to investigate plants damages incurred by the self-propelled boom-sprayer vehicle, to develop the design criteria of vehicle wheel, and to compare plant damages caused by the front wheel steering vehicle, the 4-wheel drive vehicle and the articulated vehicle, by the computer simulation. The experiment showed that the amount of damaged plants incurred by the self-propelled boom sprayer were about 0.29% in average in the field size of 100m$\times$50m(0.5ha), about 60~80% of which recovering while growing. The recommandable wheel size was analyzed to be 70~100cm in diameter, 8~15cm in width from the vehicle-plant-soil relationship. The simulation on damaged plants anticipated to be incurred by various steering vehicles showed that the smaller the turning radius, the lesser the damaged plants within its range of 3~5m. Average plant damage rate by the front wheel steering vehicle, the 4-wheel drive vehicle and articulated vehicle was relatively assessed to be 2 : 1.8 : 1.
