The rolling stock is composed of several cars. In order to operate in combination, it is necessary to connect the device, called coupler, between the rolling stocks. When the collision occurs between cars, couplers should be able to absorb the shock. Urban railway has used only rubber absorbers. But recently, the hydraulic buffer has been considered in general railway. In order to know the performance of the buffer it should be conducted to experiments. But whenever this combination change, we should experiments to know a lot of the dynamic behavior of each coupler. These experiments are generally replaced by the simulation, since a lot of time and cost consuming. The quasi-static map of hydraulic buffer obtained by the experiments is required for the simulation. However, the experiments for obtaining such a quasi-static map is costly and time consuming. In this paper, it proposes a method for deriving the quasi-static map of hydraulic buffer from the theoretical model.

By legislating safety regulations for design, manufacturing and operation of rolling stock through rolling stock safety law, diverse of safety requirements have been established. On the other hands, differences of technical level in practical circumstances between domestic and overseas are pointed out that not be able to be overcome in short period. About collision safety requirements for rolling stock, European countries have been applying TSI requirement to all of rolling stock and domestic collision safety requirements in rolling stock safety law are based on TSI. In following thesis, it is showing an analysis simulation for current rubber cushion and hydraulic buffer system to verify if they are fit to collision safety requirements and result of the simulation program for prior verification. This also suggests a method to prove the performances of coupler system for future.

Molecular simulations via the molecular dynamics method have been carried out to investigate the dynamic collision properties of penetrable-sphere model fluids. The collision frequencies, the mean free paths, the angle distributions of the hard-type reflection and the soft-type penetration, and the effective packing fractions are computed over a wide range of the packing fraction ${\phi}$ and the repulsive energy ${\varepsilon}^*$. The soft-type collisions are dominated for lower repulsive energy systems, while the hardtype collisions for higher repulsive energy systems. Very interestingly, the ratio of the soft-type (or, the hard-type) collision frequency to the total collision frequency is directly related with the Boltzmann factor of acceptance (or rejection) probabilities in the canonical ensemble Monte Carlo calculations. Such dynamic collision properties are shown to be restricted for highly repulsive and dense systems of ${\varepsilon}^*{\geqq}3.0 $and ${\phi}{\geqq}0.7$, indicating the cluster forming structures in the penetrable-sphere model.

Reconstruction of collision accidents is to analyze the cause of accidents and collision behavior using available information from vehicle accident circumstances. This paper introduces a collision reconstruction system which is developed to be applicable to traffic accident reconstruction. Our System combines both quantitative and qualitative collision models so as to compensate for weaknesses in each with strengths of each other. I It provides accurate predictions and causal explanations of the collision behavior. During r reverse analysis of collision. qualitative simulation is used to verify a hypothesis and to detect any conflict in early stage of reconstruction. It is implemented and applied to real car-to-car collision accidents. The test results verify the reliabilities of our techniques.

This paper presents a collision avoidance scheme for wireless sensor networks that use a GTS-based channel allocation scheme. Many sensor nodes can share a GTS channel for sending their data to the sink node. When a node tries to send a frame at a shared GTS channel, a collision can be occurred when there is a node that uses the same backoff number. For decreasing a wireless collision, the parent assigns a backoff number when a child node registers to it. Further, when a collision occurs during a data transfer, the parent node reassigns a new backoff number for the child node. Simulation results show that there is a decreased collision number with suggested parent-controlled collision avoidance scheme by effectively controlling the backoff number of the child.

Vehicular ad hoc network (VANET) is a dedicated network to connect vehicles without any centralized administration or infrastructure. The wireless access in vehicular environments (WAVE) protocol leveraging IEEE 1609/802.11p is widely implemented for VANETs. However, in congested traffic situation, the performance of the WAVE system degrades significantly due to serious collision, especially for safety related broadcast services on the control channel (CCH) interval due to the inherent drawback of its collision avoidance mechanisms called carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA). In this paper, we propose a method that can decrease the number of frame collisions in CCH with a few modifications to the IEEE 802.11p protocol. In the paper, vehicles still employ CSMA/CA to compete for the channel access opportunity. However, by taking advantage of periodicity of synchronization interval, a two-state switching scheme introducing two new inter frame space (IFS) is proposed to reduce the number of competing vehicles substantially and as a result, the collision probability is significantly decreased. The simulation results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method in packet collision rate.

In RFID System, one of the problem that we must slove is to devise a good anti-collision algorithms to improve the efficiency of tag identification which is usually low because of tag collision. Among of the existing RFID anti-collision algorithm, BS (Binary Search) algorithm, though simple, has a disadvantage that the stage of times used to identify the tags increase exponentially as the number of tags does. In this paper, I propose a new anti-collision algorithm called Multi-collision reflected frame which restricts the number of stages and decided bit. Since the proposal algorithm keep the length size of UID and density of total tag when have 100%. The simulation results showed that the proposed algorithm improves the efficiency by 30~50% compared to the existing algorithm.

RFID Anti-Collision technique is needed to avoid collision problem caused by Radio interference between tags in the same RFID Reader area. It affects the performance and reliability of the RFID System. This paper propose the QT-CBP(Query Tree with Collision-Bit Positioning) Algorithm based on the QT(Query Tree) algorithm. QT-CBP Algorithm use precise collision bit position to improve the performance. We demonstrated the proposed algorithm by simulation. Our algorithm outperformed when each tag bit streams are the more duplicate and the number of tags is increased, compared with QT.

This paper introduces a technique for calculating the degree of collision risk used in collision avoidance system of AUVs. The collision risk will be reckoned with the fuzzy inference, which uses TCPA(Time of the Closest Point of Approach) and DCPA(Distance of the Closest Point of Approach) as factors. A method to obtain TCPA and DCPA for 3-dimension is suggested. The degree of collision risk is provided to collision avoidance system, and is verified the effectiveness through simulation.

The wireless carrier sense multiple access with collision detection (WCSMA/CD) and carrier sense multiple access with collision resolution (CSMA/CR) protocols are considered representative distributed collision detection protocols for fully connected dense wireless local area networks. These protocols identify collisions through additional short-sensing within a collision detection (CD) period after the start of data transmission. In this study, we analyze their throughput numerically and show that the throughput has a trade-off that accords with the length of the CD period. Consequently, we obtain the optimal length of the CD period that maximizes the throughput as a closed-form solution. Analysis and simulation results show that the throughput of distributed collision detection protocols is considerably improved when the optimal CD period is allocated according to the number of stations and the length of the transmitted packet.
