The effects of the main bearing stiffness combined with vertical non-torque force on the input load and shaft deflection of a gearbox were investigated for the three-point suspension drive train of a wind turbine. A finite element analysis model for the drive train was studied experimentally, and its applicability to the present study was verified. The results show that, as the main bearing stiffness is increased, the input load of the gearbox decreases, whereas the input shaft deflection increases. The stiffness component for the pitch moment has the largest influence on the gearbox input load. Although the gearbox life increases at a higher main bearing stiffness, the economic efficiency and durability of the entire drive train system should also be considered in the selection of the main bearing stiffness.

Modern vehicles require a high degree of refinement, including good driveability to meet customer demands. Vehicle driveability, which becomes a key decisive factor for marketability, is affected by many parameters such as engine control and the dynamic characteristics in drive lines. Therefore, Engine and drive train characteristics should be considered to achieve a well balanced vehicle response simultaneously. This paper describes analysis procedures using a mathematical model which has been developed to simulate spark timing control logic. Inertia mass moment, stiffness and damping coefficient of engine and drive train were simulated to analyze the effect of parameters which were related vehicle dynamic behavior. Inertia mass moment of engine and stiffness of drive line were shown key factors for the shuffle characteristics. It was found that torque increase rate, torque reduction rate and torque recovery timing and rate influenced the shuffle characteristics at the tip-in condition for the given system in this study.

Pitch control of wind turbine is activated above rated wind speed for the purpose of rated power regulation. When we design pitch controller, its gain-scheduling is essential due to nonlinear characteristics of aerodynamic torque. In this study, 2-mass model including a vibration mode of drive-train for a 2 MW wind turbine is considered and pitch control with gain-scheduling using a linearization analysis of the nonlinear aerodynamic torque is applied. Some simulation results for the pitch gain-scheduling under step wind speed are presented and investigated. It is shown that gain-scheduling in pitch control is important especially in the region of high wind speeds when there exists a vibration mode of drive-train.

It is essential to examine and analyze the power output and load responses together using real-world turbulent wind speeds. In this paper, the power controller and the drive train damper are simultaneously considered using the NREL 5MW wind turbine model, and the damage equivalent load(DEL) of the low speed shaft torque and power output responses according to the natural frequency of the second order low pass filter are simultaneously investigated. Numerical testing is carried out above rated wind speed using commercially available Bladed software. From the viewpoints of DEL reduction of the drive train shaft torque and power output responses, it is shown that the natural frequency of the low pass filter is appropriately about 6 to 10rad/s. And the reduction ratio of the DEL of the low-speed shaft torque decreases as the wind speed becomes higher, and it is confirmed that the reduction ratio is limited to about 20% at high wind speeds.

Modern vehicles require a high degree of refinement including good driveability. Vehicle driveability, which becomes a key decisive factor f3r marketability, is affected by many parameters such as engine control and the dynamic characteristics in drive lines. Therefore engine and drive train characteristics should be considered to achieve a well balanced vehicle response simultaneously. This paper describes experimental procedures which have been developed to measure engine torque and investigate shuffle characteristics. To analyze the vehicle dynamic behavior, fractional torques and inertia mass moment of engine, and drive train were measured. Shuffle characteristics during tip-in condition were investigated in an experimental vehicle at 2nd and 3rd gear stages. It was found that the shuffle characteristics were caused by sudden changes of engine torque and have a different vibration frequency with gear stage variation. Inertia mass moment of engine including flywheel rotation showed a key factor for the shuffle characteristics.

Wind turbine requires service life of about 20 years and each components of wind turbine requires high durability, because installation and maintenance costs are more expensive than generated electricity by wind turbine. So the design of wind turbine must be verified in various condition before production step. This paper demonstrates the application of a generic methodology, based on the flexible multibody simulation technique, for the dynamic analysis of a wind turbine and its drive train. The concern of the paper is the computation of dynamic loads of wind turbine in emergency-stop condition. The finite element model is used to analyse the dynamic behaviour of the wind turbine.

In the previous research, dynamic results have been analyzed in the time and frequency regions. Time and frequency region can be transformed by the Fourier transform. This transform is very useful about analyzing system behaviors. However, because of coupling, it cannot give clear results in the real system including lots of defects. In this paper, we introduced the analysis based on quefrency region to represent physical means clearly from complicated results. We simulated the drive train system which has defects, and compared between frequency and quefrency region to show its excellence. To do this process, We established mathematical model. The equation of motion was derived by the Lagrange equation and constraint equations. The constraint equation included relationships about gear mesh, flexibility of shaft. About numerical analysis, the Newmark beta method was used to get results. And FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) which converts results from time domain to frequency, qufrequency was used.

A drive shaft is used to transmit torque and rotation through the connection of components of a drive train. Recently, a monobloc drive shaft without welding regions is developed to improve the safety of the drive shaft. The drive shaft bears the shear stress induced by torque. The objective of this paper is to investigate into the structural safety of a monobloc tubular drive shaft subjected to torque. Elasto-plastic finite element (FE) analysis is performed to estimate the deformation behavior of the drive shaft and stress-strain distribution in the drive shaft. Several techniques are used to create finite element (FE) model of the monobloc tubular drive shaft subjected to torque. Through the comparison of the results of FE analyses with those of experiments from the viewpoint of rotational angle, appropriate correction coefficients for different load conditions are estimated. The safety of the tubular drive shaft is examined using the results of FE analyses for different load conditions. Finally, it is noted that the designed tubular drive shaft has a sufficient structural safety.

This article proposes an integrated systems engineering and safety analysis model for safety-critical systems development. A methodology in system design for safety is considered during the early phase of the development life cycle of systems engineering process. The evolution of the design automation technology has enabled engineers to perform the model-based systems engineering. A Computer-Aided Systems Engineering(CASE) tool, CORE, is utilized to integrate the systems engineering model with a system safety analysis model. The results of the functional analysis phase can drive the analysis of the system safety. An example of Communications-Based Train Control(CBTC) system for an Automated Guided Transit(AGT) system demonstrated an application of the integrated model.

분기기 거더 경량화는 제작비 감소 및 제작의 용이함을 위해 필수적이다. 자기부상열차용 3방향 분기기 경량화를 위한 설계변수는 부상안정성과 관련 있기 때문에 신중히 결정되어야 한다. 도시형 자기부상열차는 대차가 레일을 감싸는 구조로 되어 있기 때문에 거더 높이 변경을 통해서 경량화가 가능하다. 실제 테스트베드에서 반복 주행시험을 통해 안정성을 확보해야 하지만 공간적, 비용적 제한에 의해 여러 거더 높이의 테스트베드 제작은 불가능하며 이를 보완하기 위한 설계 파라미터 연구는 필수적이다. 본 논문에서는 자기부상열차 주행 시 3방향 분기기 경량화에 따른 부상안정성을 고려한 설계 파라미터 연구에 그 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 분기기 거더 높이 변경을 통해 경량화하였고 모달 중첩법을 이용하여 유연체로 모델링 하였다. 유연체 분기기와 자기부상열차 동역학 모델과의 연동해석을 통해 차량의 통과속도, 횡 공극, 부상 공극을 비교하고 부상안정성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 통해 거더높이와 부상안정성과의 상관관계에 대해 분석하였다. 본 논문의 연구 결과는 자기부상열차용 분기기 설계에 활용 가능할 것이다.
