The skid proof pavement is used for safety driving on curved bridges and high level roads. This study analyzed the effect of skid proof pavement on the bridge using actual spot test and computer analysis. In the actual spot test, the natural frequency and dynamic deflection of steel box girder bridges were measured before and after skid proof pavement. Likewise, in the computer analysis, the dynamic response of the finite element model was evaluated. The model was based on real steel box girder bridge according to the skid proof pavement. The analyzed results provide basic data on the effect of skid proof pavement on road structure.

In modern society, rooftops and underground spaces are utilized for overcoming a confined space limitation of metropolitan areas. Therefore, floor covering construction is also increasing steadily. From the user's viewpoint, skid resistance performance of floor covering methods is a very important performance criterion for safety and amenity, but an appropriate design and assessment criteria for skid resistance performance are not available. This study presents the skid resistance performance assessment method of floor covering methods considering the sidewalk skid resistance standard of Seoul city and the guideline of the Ministry of Land, Transport and Maritime Affairs(MLTM) of Korea for road safety facilities'installation and maintenance. For this research, three alternatives among urethane floor covering methods are selected and their skid resistance performance is analyzed through an experimental study. The analyzed performance is also evaluated by the skid resistance performance assessment method. Finally, the comprehensive performance assessment including the results of skid resistance performance assessment is conducted by Value Analysis(VA) in order to encourage the construction methods of floor covering which have a high skid resistance performance. As a result of VA, the particle method which the skid resistance performance is improved up to four times more than other alternatives shows the highest performance index of 83.86.

Since the skid-steer loader is able to work for excavating, lifting and transporting load even at the narrow space, they are widely used in the regular farm and the livestock farm. The skid-steer loader normally adopts the hydrostatic transmission because the power to move the machine backward and forward should be delivered independently on both sides of wheels. Contrast to the mechanical system such as chain and belt transmissions, however, the hydrostatic transmission is less efficient in the use of energy and more difficult in the maintenance. This study was intended to investigate the feasibility of using triangular-type belt clutch and V-belt transmission for the newly developed skid-steer loader in order to overcome the problems stated in the hydrostatic transmission. In the developed triangular-type belt clutch, the centers of driving, driven and idler sheaves are arranged in the triangular shape in a plane, and V-belts were loaded loosely on three sheaves. The power is transmitted by pressing the idler connected to a lever on the loosened V-belt. Contrast to the normal belt clutch using two sheaves, the newly developed belt clutch has the characteristics of small contact-angle of the driving sheave at no bucket load and increasing contact-angle at the time of power transmission. The results of research can be summarized as follows: 1) The developed triangular-type belt clutch adopted a spring-loaded slackside idler which could transmit more power than a fixed idler could by sacrificing the belt life. The life of V-belt used in the power transmission reached at 500 hours(6 months) when the engine power of 11.8 ㎾ was transmitted. Also, it was feasible to develop the large industrial skid-loader with the V-belt transmission by using the proper set of sheaves. 2) The developed skid-steer loader changed the rotating radius and speed with bucket loads as the conventional skid steer loader did. The rotating speed was 47 deg/s at the maximum bucket load of 2.74 kN when the minimum rotating radius was 1.5m. 3) The power required in turning at the bucket load of 2.74 kN was 4 ㎾ and the slippage of V-belt was less than 1%.

Skid resistance is defined as the friction between pavement surfaces and vehicle tires. Lower skid resistances were observed as the vehicle speeds the water film thicknesses were increased according to the analysis results using computer modeling. The lift force is calculated from the analysis results and depends on vehicle speeds and the water film thickness. A modified IFI(international friction index) skid resistance prediction model was developed to reduce the differences between the IFI resistance prediction model and the actual skid resistance. The correlation analysis results between the IFI prediction model and the actual skid resistance revealed that the $R^2$ using the modified IFI prediction model was 0.64 whereas the $R^2$ using the conventional IFI prediction model was 0.49. This presents the modified prediction model is better than the conventional one. An improved precise prediction model is to be obtained if water film thicknesses are considered in the modified prediction model.

Traffic accidents due to excessive speed frequently occur in places where traffic signal controllers are installed, places where sharp curves exist, or places where the traffic signal cycle does not match the current time. These traffic accidents cause economic loss due to the destruction of road facilities and structures, and cause a big problem of increasing the number of traffic accident deaths. When a traffic accident occurs, leaving a tire mark before or after a car crash, pre-collision speed of the car is calculated using the law of conservation of momentum or the skid mark formula. In the skip skid mark generated in ABS brake vehicles and the combshaped yaw mark generated by tire trace caused by lateral sliding, there is a difference of 30-40% in the reliability of the vehicle speed calculated by the smite mark. In this paper, we propose an algorithm that can improve the calculation reliability in vehicle speed by using skid marks in order to compensate for this problem. In addition, we present an intelligent speed calculation algorithm for traffic safety and a computer simulation in order to prevent traffic accidents by estimating the speed of a vehicle, using Skid marks, Yaw marks, and ABS brake characteristics and fuzzy rules.

Recently, skid steering methods have been increasingly applied to unmanned ground vehicles since they can provide a narrow turn that general steering methods like ackerman steering may not provide. However, dynamic behaviors of the skid steering vehicles with articulating arms which occur during a steering are very complicated and coupled. This makes it difficult to control vehicles and in severe case vehicles may loose stability. There are two methods to control unmanned ground vehicles. The first one is speed control method generally used with easiness and robustness in remote vehicle control. The next one is torque control allowing the vehicles to get better performance in several cases provided careful application is achieved. This paper addresses dynamic phenomena of skid steering vehicles during steering and compares with vehicle driving control methods between torque(traction force) control and speed control.

ROK military helicopters are frequently exposed to the hazard situations due to the characteristic of operation. Especially, helicopter accident may lead to critical damage of human and structure. Accordingly, pilots have to train the autorotation procedures and learn the skill to prevent hard landing. In this paper, the behavior of skid gear subject to the helicopter autorotation was conducted by using numerical method. The computer simulation approach by using finite element method was employed to accomplish this goal. Additionally, the behavior of skid gear was evaluated for the different landing conditions. In conclusion, the maximum stress concentration was occurred at the attached area of skid cross-tube to the fuselage. Also, it was revealed that the most proper attitude was level landing to prevent hard landing.

In this paper, we propose a novel genetic algorithm to reduce the overall span time by optimizing the skid insertion sequence in the shipyard subassembly process. We represented a solution by a permutation of a set of skid ids and applied genetic operators suitable for such a representation. In addition, we combined the genetic algorithm and the existing heuristic algorithm called UniDev which is properly modified to improve the search performance. In particular, the slow skid search part in UniDev was changed to a greedy algorithm. Through extensive large-scaled simulations, it was observed that the span time of our method was stably minimized compared to Multi-Start search and a genetic algorithm combined with UniDev.
