Objective: The aim of this study is to investigate maritime officers' strategies to avoid the ship collision in crossing situations. Background: In a situation where there is a risk of collision between two ships, maritime officers can change the direction and speed of the own-ship to avoid the collision. They have four options to select; adjusting the speed only, the direction only, both the speed and direction at the same time and no action. Research questions were whether the strategy they are using differs according to the shipboard experience of maritime officers and the representation method of ARPA (automatic radar plotting aid) - radar graphic information. Method: Participants were 12. Six of them had more than 3 years of onboard experience, while the others were 4th grade students at Korea Maritime and Ocean University. For each participant, 32 ship encounter situations were provided with ARPA-radar information. 16 situations were presented by the north-up display and 16 situations were presented by the track-up display. Participants were asked to decide how to move the own-ship to avoid the ship collision for each case. Results: Most participants attempted to avoid the collision by adjusting the direction of the ship, representing an average of 22.4 times in 32 judgment trials (about 70%). Participants who did not have experience on board were more likely to control speed and direction at the same time than participants with onboard experience. Participants with onboard experience were more likely to control the direction of the ship only. On the other hand, although the same ARPA Information was provided to the participants, the participants in many cases made different judgments depending on the method of information representation; track-up display and north-up display. It was only 25% that the participants made the same judgment under the same collision situations. Participants with onboard experience did make the same judgment more than participants with no onboard experience. Conclusion: In marine collision situations, maritime officers tend to avoid collisions by adjusting only the direction of their ships, and this tendency is more pronounced among maritime officers with onboard experience. The effect of the method of information representation on their judgment was not significant. Application: The results of this research might help to train maritime officers for safe navigation and to design a collision avoidance support system.

In this paper, a motion control system based on 2-axis gimbal system is designed and implemented to drive a high speed and precision. The proposed system consists of the RS-422 interface, 2-axis gimbal platform, servo control unit integrated with a high speed DSP chip-set, servo amplifier unit, potentiometer sensor unit, and resolver sensor unit. The servo control unit using the high speed DSP firmware is designed to get a fast response without an overshoot with step input and a RMS error of low probability with ramp input. The servo amplifier unit using a voltage control is designed to resolve the zero-crossing distortion for precise motion. To verify the performance and stability of the implemented system, experiments are performed through a measurement of the time and frequency domain response in a laboratory environment by using a PXI(PCI eXtentions for Instrumentation).

열차운행주파수가 철도교의 고유진동수와 일치하면, 철도교의 공진은 피할 수 없다. 또한, 열차가 교량을 매우 빠르게 통과하면, 계측 가능한 시간응답의 샘플 수는 매우 적다. 본 논문은 그러한 경우에 대하여 철도 교량의 동특성을 매우 효과적으로 추출할 수 있는 TDD기법과 SI기법을 소개한다. 열차통과 직후에 교량의 자유진동 시간응답구간의 상호상관을 이용하여 모드형상은 TDD기법으로 추출하고, 고유진동수 및 감쇠비 등의 시간변수들은 SI기법으로 추출한다. 경부고속철도 시스템에 위치한 2경간 강합성교량의 동특성 추출실험을 통하여 TDD기법과 SI기법의 현장 적용성이 검토되었다. 동특성 추정결과는 기존의 ERADC기법의 결과와 비교 검토되었다. 추정결과는 기존의 방법을 이용하여 획득된 결과와 매우 잘 일치한다.

현재의 보행신호는 보행자 녹색신호가 일정시간을 경과하면 녹색점멸 신호로 바뀌게 되는데, 횡단보도를 지나는 보행자가 녹색점멸 신호의 잔여시간을 알 수 없어서 보행시 불안감을 느끼고 있으며, 이를 해소하기 위해 지난 2000년부터 보행신호 잔여시간 표시장치로 '역삼각형' 표시장치를 채택하여 설치 운영해 왔다. 이 보행신호 잔여시간을 도형이 아닌 '숫자'로 표시하는 방식이 새롭게 제안되어 시험운영 중인데, 본 연구는 두 가지의 잔여시간 표시장치에 대해 보행자의 보행속도를 비교한 것이다. 보행신호 잔여시간 표시장치에 따른 보행속도의 비교분석 결과 (1) 미설치시, 계수형 및 역삼각형 잔여시간 표시장치 설치시 평균보행속도는 각각 1.44, 1.39, 1.42m/sec로 분석되었으며 (2)미설치시, 계수형 및 역삼각형 잔여시간 표시장치 설치 시 보행자 보행속도 분포 차이 검정을 위해 Duncan's Multiple Range Test 결과 각각 유의수준 1.00으로 보행자 보행속도분포는 차이가 있는 것으로 검증되었다. (3)미설치시 보행속도분포는 Erlang(0.117, 10)분포, 계수형 및 역삼각형 잔여시간 표시장치 설치시 보행자 보행속도분포는 각각 Weibull(1.17, 3.72)분포, Gamma(0.137, 8.18)분포를 따르는 것으로 분석되었다.

Non-stationary extreme winds such as thunderstorm downbursts are responsible for many structural damages. This research presents a time domain approach for estimating along-wind load effects on tall buildings using multiple wind speed time history samples, which are simulated from evolutionary power spectra density (EPSD) functions of non-stationary wind fluctuations using the method developed by the authors' earlier research. The influence of transient wind loads on various responses including time-varying mean, root-mean-square value and peak factor is also studied. Furthermore, a simplified model is proposed to describe the non-stationary wind fluctuation as a uniformly modulated process with a modulation function following the time-varying mean. Finally, the probabilistic extreme response and peak factor are quantified based on the up-crossing theory of non-stationary process. As compared to the time domain response analysis using limited samples of wind record, usually one sample, the analysis using multiple samples presented in this study will provide more statistical information of responses. The time domain simulation also facilitates consideration of nonlinearities of structural and wind load characteristics over previous frequency domain analysis.

Due to the friction characteristics of pump, cylinder packing and passenger car, in the elevation system actuated with hydraulic inverter, there exist dead zones. which cannot be controlled by a PID controller. To overcome the drawbacks, in this paper, we propose a new hybrid fuzzy-sliding mode control scheme, which controls the controller output between a sliding mode control output and a PID control output by fuzzy control method. The proposed hybrid control scheme achieves an improved control performance by using both controllers. We first propose a design method of the hybrid controller far a hydraulic system controlled by inverters, then propose a design method of a hybrid fuzzy-sliding mode centre] scheme. The effectiveness of the proposed control scheme is shown by simulation results, in which the proposed hybrid control method yields better control performance then the PID controlled scheme, not only in the zero-crossing speed region but also in the overall control region including steady-state region.

More than 80 percent of traffic accidents related with lane departure believed to be the result of crossing the lane due to either negligence or drowsiness of the driver. Lane-departure related accident in the highway usually involve high fatality. Even though LDWS is believed to prevent accident 25% and reduce fatalities by 15% respectively, its effectiveness in performance is yet to be confirmed in many aspects. In this study, the vehicle lateral locations relative to warning zone envelop (earliest and latest warning zone) defined in ISO standard, ECE and NHTSA regulations are compared with respect to various factors including delays, vehicle speed and vehicle heading angle with respect to the lane. Since LDWS is designed to be activated at the speed over 60 km/h, vehicle speed range for the study is set to be from 60 to 100 km/h. The vehicle heading angle (yaw angle) is set to be up to 5 degree away from the lane (abrupt lane change) considering standard for lane change test using double lane-change test specification. The TLC is calculated using factors like vehicle speed, yaw angle and reaction time. In addition, the effect of vehicle type has been considered to assess LDWS safety.

The aim of this study was to evaluate driving performance of normal subjects for controlling the steering wheel by using foot operated steering devices in the driving simulator. Many people with complete bilateral loss or loss of use of upper limbs but with normal lower limbs are frequently left without use and/ or control of their hands, arms, or the upper extremities of their bodies. As a result, persons disabled in this manner have problems in operation an automobile because they cannot grasp and manipulate a conventional steering wheel. Therefore, if foot operated steering devices are used for controlling the vehicle on in people with disabilities, the disabled people could improve their community mobility by driving a car safely. Ten normal subjects were involved in this research to evaluate steering performance by using three types of steering devices(conventional steering wheel, pedal type foot steering, circular type foot steering) in driving simulator. STISim Drive 3 program was used for testing the driving performance in two road scenarios: straight road and curved road at low and high speed of vehicle (40 km/h and 80 km/h). This study used two-way ANOVA to compare the influences of two factors(type of foot steering device and road scenario) in the three dependent variables of steering performance(standard deviation of lateral position, the lateral position of vehicle and the number of line crossing). The average values of the three dependent variables(standard deviation of lateral position, lateral position and the number of line crossing) of driving performance were significantly smaller for conventional steering wheel or pedal type foot steering than circular type foot steering.
