This study is about a semi-active quarter car simulation method including a MR(magneto-rheological) damper. The MR damper was modeled as Spencer model that can capture nonlinear and hysteretic behavior. The parameters of the Spencer model were extracted from a random excitation test and optimum treatment of the test data. Then, a suspension control algorithm based on Sky-hook theory was applied for the quarter car simulation. Also, an experiment was done using a quarter car simulator to confirm the simulation results with the Spencer MR damper model.

In this paper, a server and client simulator for the web-based multi-view 3D image communication system is implemented by using the IEEE 1394 digital cameras, Intel Xeon server computer and Microsoft's DirectShow programming library. In the proposed system, two-view image is initially captured by using the IEEE 1394 stereo camera and then, this data is compressed through extraction of its disparity information in the Intel Xeon server computer and transmitted to the client system, in which multi-view images are generated through the intermediate views reconstruction method and finally display on the 3D display monitor. Through some experiments it is found that the proposed system can display 8-view image having a grey level of 8 bits with a frame rate of 15 fps.

The concurrent engineering technologies have been broadly used in the field of the design, testing, manufacturing and maintenance works to reduce development time and costs. For this purpose, many design environments with the product data management system, the virtual engineering system and web database system are developed. In this research, we developed the driving simulator of the KTX(Korea Train Express) as a basic study for building the concurrent engineering design environment of rolling stock. The virtual track was developed from the Seoul to the Busan and the Daejeon to Mockpo to generate immersible driving environment. Also. fault generation systems were developed to educate drivers of the KTX. We expect to reduce the time and costs of newly developed rolling stock using the design environment developed in the research.

Generally, it is well known that driving in tunnel imposes large burden to driver because of spatial constraint, limited visual field and so on. And such a burden of driver result in high accident occurrence. In this reason, studies dealing with features of driving and traffic flow in tunnel have been performed. However, information about characteristics of drivers and traffic in a very long tunnel is not accumulated yet. The purpose of this study is to identify the relations between tunnel length and burden of driver, driving patterns, traffic flow characteristics using the tunnel simulator that realizing various tunnel situations. For this, the tunnel simulation program was developed along 11km-length section. And biological data of 10 subjects gained from driving condition in simulation program was analyzed and compared with the result of real driving condition.

This paper describes the design and manufacturing of a focused-ion-beam machining system which can make small features of nano size. We use a SIMION simulator in order to obtain the design data of an ion column. The simulation result shows that the focal length of ion beam decreases as the applied voltage of object lens increases. Finally, we obtained the good images of a mesh of 50 micrometers by using the adjustment of applied voltage, acceleration power, and dimension of each elements.

The effects of secondary task on driving performance and subjective workload were investigated during a simulated driving. The driving performance was determined by the appropriateness of break timing. The driving simulator was provided by the Korea Road Traffic Safety Association. The subjective workload was tested by using a multidimensional measure such as NASA-TLX. Road was categorized into two types: narrow alley and wide street. The secondary task included pushing the number on the cellular phone, pushing radio channel, and conversing with a passenger. Seventeen subjects volunteered in the study. The data were analyzed by using SAS. Results showed that using the cellular phone and pushing channel during driving caused 3∼22% decline of driving performance and 42∼59% increase of subjective workload respectively. These results indicated that the secondary task could be potentially dangerous although there was not a significant performance decrease due to the notable increase of mental workload. In the future, if we can use a more sensitive and realistic driving simulator, the effects of secondary task under a dynamic driving situation can be investigated.

This paper presents a model for the optimal design of dendritic water distribution systems using linear progranning technique. The optimization model was formulated and applied to a coastal region reclamation project site located in Hae-Ham, Jun-Nam province. The water distribution systems in the region had aleady been designed using a hydraulic simulator(BRANCH). The optimization model developed in this research utilized the data given in the report of the project. The comparison between the systems designed by the simulator and by the optimization model shows that the optimization model provides better results and can be utilized more efficiently in the design of dendritic water distribution systems.

This paper presents evaluation and comparisons of manual driving and driving with intelligent cruise control(ICC) systems. An intelligent vehicle cruise control strategy has been designed to achieve natural vehicle behavior of the controlled vehicle that would make human driver feel comfortable and therefore would increase driver acceptance. The evaluation and comparisons of the ICC and manual driving have been conducted using real-world vehicle driving data and an ICC vehicle simulator.

Hybrid simulation may employ different types of simulation based on which models in different system types are developed. The simulation requires simulation time synchronization and data exchange between such simulators, which is called simulators interoperation. This paper develops such interoperable simulation environments for modeling and simulation of hybrid systems whose components consist of continuous and discrete event systems. The environments, one for centerized and the other for distribute, support interoperation between a discrete event simulator of DEVSim++ and a continuous simulator of MATLAB. The centerized environment, HDEVSim++, is developed by extending the sxisting DEVSim++ environment; the distributed environment, HDEVSimHLA, is developed using the HLA/RTl library. Verification of both environments is made and performance comparison between the two using a simple example is presented. .
