  • The car ferry operating between the mainland and the island plays an important role on transportation of goods and passengers. Therefore, the improvement of efficiency and safety as well as economic factor are importantly considered in the development process of car ferry. Double-ended car ferry is already popularized because of its economic feasibility and convenience for passenger in Europe and developed countries, and the demand is booming in domestic. In this paper, dynamic characteristics of propeller shaft and strength in double-ended car ferry are analyzed using campbell diagram and modal analysis. Based on the analysis of dynamic characteristics, resonant phenomenon and critical speed are stable when occurring the propeller shaft vibration due to forward and reverse propeller shaft working.

  • As the use of public transportation increases, many researches are being carried out to increase the fuel economy of car. The goal of this study is to design a front body in order to increase the fuel economy of car through three models of cars. All models were designed with CATIA program and the flow analyses on the air outside car by model were carried out with ANSYS program. At the driving speed of 90km/h, the longer the body, the less air resistance it received. So, it is thought that there is the effect to increase fuel economy. Through this study, it can be helpful to design the front car body that can maximize train efficiency. By utilizing the design data on flow analysis according to the position of radiator inside car in this study, the esthetic sense can be given by being grafted onto the real automotive part.

  • One of the most important factors that affect a person's risk of injury in a motor vehicle crash is the age of the person. This study investigates the characteristics of crash injuries among young, middle-aged and older drivers and occupants. Based on the comprehensive claim data from automobile insurance from 2000 to 2007, this study examines in great detail the drivers and occupants injury body regions and severity by age in car-to-car frontal crashes. It has been shown that elderly drivers and occupants suffer more injuries at a chest region compared to the middle-aged group. This research calls attention to the need for design to make vehicles more protective for older drivers in car-to car frontal crashes.

  • Both an optimal design of the engine operating strategy and fuel economy prediction technique for a HEV under the vehicle driving condition are very crucial for the development of vehicle fuel economy performance. Thus, in this study, engine operating characteristics of PRIUS III were analyzed with vehicle running conditions and the correlations between vehicle tractive power and fuel consumption were introduced. As a result, fuel economy performance of PRIUS III with various test modes were predicted and verified. Errors of predicted fuel economy were between -5% and -1%.

  • Recently, it has been trending toward speed-up not only in the passenger car but in the freight cu. In this study, we thus performed stress analysis for the carbody for high speed container freight car in use and field test of the freight car in Gyungbu-line so that we may utilize the results as a design guide for speed-up hereafter- Five vertical loading conditions due to dynamic effect and the weight of the carbody and the container applied to locking devices of the carbody and its results are compared with that of a test, As a result, we found that there is need to complement the strength of the carbody in some measure when speed up the present freight car.

  • The development of railway vehicle and bogie involves the proper selection of design parameters not only to achieve high speed of the train but also to reduce the vibration. In this study, an analytical model of a high speed freight car is developed to find the critical speed. The high speed freight car can generate the snake motion of the lateral, rolling and yawing motion of the car body and the bogie. The numerical analysis for the equation motions with 17 degrees of freedom showed the running stability and the critical speed due to the snake motion. Also the vibration modes of the high speed freight car was calculated using ADAMS RAIL software, which showed that the critical speed have the yawing modes of the car body and the bogie.

  • This paper presents a practical method for reduction of interior noise and improvement of sound quality in compartment of passenger car. The tested vehicle has a booming noise problem at rear passenger seats. In order to identify the transfer path of interior noise, the running modal analysis, the vibro-acoustic frequency transfer response and the noise path analysis are systematically employed. Using these various methods, it has been founded that the rear part of the roof of the test car was a noise source for the booming noise. Through the modification of the roof, the booming noise has been reduced and sound quality inside car also has been improved.

  • The optimal design for a leading car considering the aerodynamic resistance is required on the high-speed train due to increasing of ratio of drag force with proportion for the square of velocity. The aerodynamic analysis using CFD in the stage of concept design offers more economical analysis method which is used to estimate the influence of flow and pressure around the leading car than the experimental method using the Mock-up. In this study, we want to assist the artistic design with aerodynamics analysis in order to get the optimal design for leading car made of composite material. The results of aerodynamic analysis for two leading car models, which one is expressed with lineal beauty and the other is with curvaceous beauty, are compared with each other and offer the proposal of modification for two models in order to decrease be drag force. The shape of curvaceous model is better for the pressure force but slightly worse for the viscous force than the other. The Fluent software is used for the calculation of flow profile in this study.

  • In this study, the model A with the existing shape used at racing car and the model B with light weight were designed. The structural analysis with thermal deformation and stress were carried out. Model A shows that the maximum temperature is lower than model B. The cooling performance due to the shape of the disk without any other cooling conditions can be shown to be better for model A. Model A was seen to be superior in durability as the thermal stress reduced by almost twice as much as model B. The part where the greatest stress occurred appeared to be the hole jointed with the hub regardless of its shape. The analysis results at this study are seen to be useful at designing the shape of the actual vehicle brake disc. The analysis results obtained in this study can be applied at grasping the strength of the brake disk for racing car practically. By utilizing the analysis result of the brake disk for racing car, this study is seen as the convergence study that the aesthetic design and analysis are applied.
