Recent, The propeller had high performance according as high performance of small ship. So, We has the development for azimuth thrusters. This Paper has structure improvement of steering support flange in azimuth thrusters. Steering support flange is very important part. because, Steering support flange supports all weight of azimuth thrusters. We has static & dynamic analysis of Steering support flange, and we discover the very safety. So, We has optimum design for the cost reduction. The first method of optimum design, We has the thickness reduce to 30mm from 5mm. Next method of optimum design, We had added stiffener. And we has the structure & dynamic behavior analysis. We had to dynamic behavior analysis. The first, We had to modal analysis. The result of 1st-modal analysis is that original model had to 76.48hz and new model had to 200.9hz. The second, We had to harmonic analysis. The result, We gave the thrust power to steering support flange. and We had to frequency analysis to $0{\sim}500hz$. The result, Deflection ration reduce to 16.64.

The steering wheel vibrations such as shimmy, brake judder and shake are affected by the vibration characters of steering and suspension. For the analysis of shimmy, nonuniformities of tire can be considered the major sources. This study investigates unbalances and uniformities of tire in which the lateral force variation is highly correlated with shimmy. The hardness of suspension bushes can be modified to change the dynamic behavior of suspension that is effective to reduce the sensitivity of shimmy.

When emergency evasion during running is required, a driver sometimes causes a vehicle to drift, that is, a condition in which the rear wheels skid due to rapid steering. Under such conditions, the vehicle enters a very unstable state and often becomes uncontrollable. An unstable state of the vehicle induced by rapid steering was simulated and the effect of differential steering assistance was examined. Results indicate that, in emergency evasion while cornering and during which the vehicle begins to drift, unstable behavior like spins can be avoided by differential steering assistance and both the stability and control of the vehicle is improved remarkably. In addition, reduction of overshoot during spin evasion by the differential steering assistance has been shown to enable the vehicle to return to a state of stability in a short time in emergency evasion during straight-line running. Moreover, the effectiveness of differential steering assistance during emergency evasion was confirmed using a driving simulator.

Steering system is typically one of the vehicle parts that may injure an unrestrained driver in a frontal collision. Therefore, the engineers of vehicle safety parts researched the allowable injury criteria such as HIC(head injury criterion). chest acceleration and knee impact force. From their research, they recognized that development of energy absorbing steering system was necessary to protect the driver. Energy absorbing parts of steering system consist of shear capsule, ball sleeve and shaft assembly. We performed the modelling and dynamic analysis of the energy absorbing steering column with the unrestrained driver model. The conclusions of this study are as follows. 1) The variation of column angle has an important effects on the dynamic responses of steering system and driver behavior. 2) The energy absorbing steering system satisfies the safety criterion of FMVSS 203, 208, but not the safety criterion of FMVSS 204.

Most of the work of construction equipment and agricultural machinery is done in off-road conditions. Autonomous driving required in these conditions uses GPS sensors, and PID controllers to control their speed and position. The hydrostatic steering, which is composed of a PSU, hydraulic hoses, and cylinders, rather than a mechanical coupling is used in these equipments. The PSU plays a key role in hydrostatic steering. Precise control of the position under various conditions requires detailed behavioral analysis of the basic components and operation. Two Gerotor PSU is now a commonly used safer option. The components of the PSU can be divided into mechanical and hydraulic actuating elements by its behavior. Since the system is combined by mechanical and hydraulic elements, the modelings are performed using Amesim, which is one of the most effective for the multi-domain dynamic system analysis. To confirm the validity of the model, input torque and pressures are checked with varying steering speed. The opening and the steering speed of normal and newly designed control valve set is investigated with the effect of centering spring force and friction. Finally, simulation results with fully detailed model with two gerotors are analyzed and compared with simple model.

동물이나 곤충, 혹은 사람 같은 군중이 등장하는 장면을 영화나 게임 등에서 종종 볼 수 있다. 이러한 대규모의 군중을 제어하기 위해서는 일반적인 에이전트별 제어 방식이 아닌 군중적인 움직임을 보일 수 있는 특별한 군중 제어가 필요하다. 자연스러운 군중의 제어를 위해선 지능적인 행동을 보여야하며 움직임은 자연스러워야한다. 또한 게임 등의 실시간 환경을 위해선 연산의 속도도 고려해야 한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 조종 행동을 이용한 실시간 대규모 군중 제어 기법을 제안한다.

The navigation algorithms enable autonomous mobile robots to reach given target points without collision against obstacles. To achieve safe navigations in unknown environments, this paper presents an effective navigation algorithm for the autonomous mobile robots with ultrasonic sensors. The proposed navigation algorithm consists of an obstacle-avoidance behavior, a target-reaching behavior and a fuzzy-based decision maker. In the obstacle-avoidance behavior and the target-reaching behavior, artificial immune networks are used to select a proper steering angle, make the autonomous mobile robot avoid obstacles and approach a given target point. The fuzzy-based decision maker combines the steering angles from the target-reaching behavior and the obstacle-avoidance behavior in order to steer the autonomous mobile robot appropriately. Simulational and experimental results show that the proposed navigation algorithm is very effective in unknown environments.

An adhesively bonded power steering cylinder with a steel tube and an aluminum bracket was developed to reduce the weight of steering systems. To achieve the joint strength between the steel tube and of the aluminum bracket, the shape aluminum bracket re-designed by using the FE-analysis. Fracture behavior of the adhesive layer was considered by a cohesive zone model(CZM), which is based on the two-parameter fracture phenomenon with critical stress and fracture toughness. From the result of FE-analysis with CZM, re-designed power steering cylinder satisfied the desired joint strength for axial and torsion modes. And its joint strength was verified by the fracture test in each mode.

The skid-steering method that applied a number of mobile robot currently is very effective in narrow area. But it contains several problems of its natural properties, slip, occurred by different direction between vehicle's driving and wheel's rotary. From this thesis we want to suggest suitable structure of $6{\times}6$ skid steering wheeled vehicle and method of driving by analyzing the behavior of $6{\times}6$ skid-steered wheeled vehicle by engineering analytical method
