Acceleration performance, maximum velocity, urban driving energy consumption, and high-way driving energy consumption are important characteristics of electric vehicle driving. This study analyzes the effect of a gear ratio on these characteristics for a front wheel drive electric vehicle. The normalized sensitivity metric is used to compare the sensitivity of these scaled characteristics to the changes in the gear ratio. The sensitivity analysis results show that the normalized values are 0.95 for maximum velocity, 0.91 for acceleration performance, 0.51 for urban driving energy consumption, and 0.24 for high-way driving energy consumption. Therefore, the maximum velocity was affected the most by the changes in the gear ratio. These results can be used to determine the gear ratio of a front wheel drive electric vehicle to optimize the driving characteristics simultaneously.

Automobile black boxes store and provide accident and driving information. The accident and driving information can be utilized to build scientific traffic-event database and can be applied in various industries. The objective of this study is to develop a recognition system of dangerous driving through analyzing the driving characteristic patterns. In this paper, possible dangerous driving models are classified into four models on the basis of vehicle behaviors(acceleration, deceleration, rotation) and accident types from existing statistical data. Dangerous driving data have been acquired through vehicle tests using automobile black boxes. Characteristics of driving patterns have been analyzed in order to classify dangerous driving models. For the recognition of dangerous driving, this study selected critical value of each dangerous driving model and developed the recognition algorithm of dangerous driving. The study has been verified by the application of recognition algorithm of dangerous driving and vehicle tests using automobile black boxes. The presented recognition methods of dangerous driving can be used for on-line/off-line management of drivers and vehicles.

The durability prediction of emission control components, especially 02 sensor and catalytic converter, is getting more important as emission regulation is getting stricter and vehicle durability mileage requirement is also extended from 80,000 ㎞ to 160,000 km in Korean market. And the duration of vehicle mileage accumulation to get vehicle exhaust emission deterioration factor for certification is required to be shorter in order to reduce the vehicle development time. Since most of the vehicle emission development tests are done on chassis dynamometer and aging bench by using vehicle aging modes, real road condition and in-use driving patterns must be reflected into them to predict the vehicle emission level and to meet emission regulation especially at high mileage. In order to get the frequent driving pattern of vehicle and the aging characteristic of emission components, a vehicle was tested by changing drivers and driving roads around Seoul. Real road driving patterns were analyzed and compared with those of the certification modes which are well known in automotive industry.

Piles are widely used in structural foundations of engineering projects. However, the deformation of the soil around the pile caused by driving process has an adverse effect on adjacent existing underground buildings. Many previous studies have addressed related problems in sand and saturated clay. Nevertheless, the failure mechanism of pile driving in unsaturated soil remains scarcely reported, and this issue needs to be studied. In this study, a modeling test system based on particle image velocimetry (PIV) was developed for studying deformation characteristics of pile driving in unsaturated silt with different water contents. Meanwhile, a series of direct shear tests and soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) tests also were conducted. The test results show that the displacement field shows an apparent squeezing effect under the pile end. The installation pressure and displacement field characteristics are sensitive to the water content. The installation pressure is the largest and the total displacement field is the smallest, for specimens compacted at water content of 11.5%. These observations can be reasonably interpreted according to the relevant unsaturated silt theory derived from SWCC tests and direct shear tests. The variation characteristics of the soil displacement field reflect the macroscopic mechanical properties of the soil around the pile.

In this study, contour-vibration-mode Pb($Ni_{1/2}$,$W_{1/2}$)$O_3$-Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ piezoelectric transformers for driving a 28W(T5) fluorescent lamp were fabricated to the modified filter structure with ring and dot electrodes which has been developed for application in 455kHz AM radios. The piezoelectric transformers were fabricated to the size of $31.5$\times$31.5$\times$2.5$mm^3$ with the variations of ring/dot electrode area ratio. Driving of piezoelectric transformer was carried out with input region for the ring electrode and output region for the dot electrode. The electrical properties and characteristic temperature rises caused by the vibration were measured at various load resistances. A 28 W fluorescent lamp, T5, was successfully driven by the fabricated transformer. The transformer with ring/dot electrode area ratio of 1.83 exhibited the best properties in terms of output power, efficiency and characteristic temperature rise, 30.95 W, 97.57% and8.3$^{\circ}C$ respectively.

In this paper the optimized overlap driving scheme for improving the reduction problem of the operating voltage range occured by the overlap driving scheme proposed precedently and increasing the contrast ratio of screen image in the simple matrix LCDs is proposed. The characteristic estimation of the proposed method was performed in a condition that the number of scan electrodes was 120 and the threshold voltage of LC pixel was 2V and the overlap rate of scan signal was varied from 0% to 40% . As a result of estimation compared with the overlap driving scheme proposed precedently, this new method was certified as a method which it could increase the operating voltage range of the LC pixel by 16% in 20% overlap condition and it's operating voltage range was also increased very much with the increase of the overlap rate. Consequently this newly proposed method was certified as a method which it could maintain the improvement effect of the operating characteristics obtained by the overlap driving scheme proposed precedently with the big improvement in the contrast ratio of screen image.
