An analysis of handling characteristics of a vehicle is performed for step and pulse steering input, which may be very useful in suspension design stage. Many developed computer programs for vehicle dynamics require test data of compliance effects for proto type car. Therefore, these programs are not suitable for automobile development stage. Using the raw design data of suspension and steering system, we analyze the vehicle behavior for step and pulse steering input with commercial multibody dynamics program, ADAMS. Simulated results are in good agreement with vehicle test results. Vehicle handling characteristics parameters which are very useful in automobile suspension design are evaluated from the analysis.

In this paper, the equations of motion about vehicle, powertrain and brake system were derived. The vehicle has eight degrees of freedom with nonlinear tire model and the powertrain has two degrees of freedom containing engine, torque converter and four speed automatic transmission. The brake system has two states about front and rear brake line pressures. The transient tire model with first order time lag is also subjoined for low speed or stop-and-go simulation. The modeling was derived considering two points - the fidelity and the simplicity. The simulation using this model is similar with real vehicle dynamic behavior and the model is made as simple as possible far fast simulation. It is validated that the derived vehicle model can be applicable to the real time simulation.

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.

This paper develops a finite element model for studying the occupant behavior and injury cofficients of a large-sized cab-over type truck. Since it does not have a room to absorb collision energy and deformation in front of the passenger compartment the deformation is directly transmitted to the passenger compartment. Moreover, since its steering column is attached on the frame, severe deformation of the frame directly affects on the steering wheel's movement. Therefore, if the occupant behavior and injury coefficients analysis is performed using a finite element model developed based on a sled test, it is very difficult to expect acquiring satisfactory results. Thus, the finite element model developing in this paper is based on the frontal crash test in order to overcome the inherent problems of the sled test based model commonly used in the passenger car. The occupant behavior and injury coefficients analysis is performed using PAM-CRASH installed in super-computer SP2. In order to validate the reliability of the developed finite element model, a frontal crash test is carried out according to a test method used fur developing truck occupant's secondary safety system in european community and japan. That is, test vehicle's collision direction is vertical to the rigid barrier and collision velocity is 45kph. Thus, measured vehicle pulses at the lower parts of the left and right B-pilla., dummy chest and head deceleration profiles, HIC(head injury criterial) and CA(chest acceleration) values, and dummy behavior from the frontal crash test are compared to the analysis results to validate reliability of the developed model.

A fundamental structural design consideration for a vehicle system is the overall vibration characteristics in bending and torsion. Vibration characteristics of such vehicle system are mainly influenced by the static and dynamic stiffness of the vehicle body structure and also by the material and physical properties of the components attached to the vehicle body structure. In this paper, modeling techniques for the vehicle components are presented and the flexibility and mass effects of the components for the vibration characteristics of the vehicle are investigated. The $1^{st}$ torsional frequency is increased by attaching windshields to the B.I.W. (body-in-white), but the $1^{st}$ bending frequency is decreased by the mass effect. And also, the natural frequencies of the vehicle are large decreased by attaching bumpers, seats, doors, trunk-lid etc. But, suspension system rarely affects the natural frequencies of the vehicle. The study shows thai the dynamic characteristics of the vehicle system can be effectively predicted in the initial design stage.

The response characteristics of a CVT vehicle is investigated numerically by using a Bondgraph model. Simulation result show the continuous behavior of the engine and the speed ratio for the CVT vehicle compared to the discrete behavior of the automatic transmission. Also, the optimal operation of the CVT which is derived from the speed ratio-torque-axial force equation from the previous works. It is found that the speed ratio of CVT has to be controlled corresponding to the optimal CVT ratio that makes the engine run on the optimal operating line.

본 본 연구에서는 교량의 동적거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하기 위한 교량-차량거동을 파악 하고자 실험적 연구를 수행하였다. 이를 위하여 차량 교량 간 상호작용이 포함된 이동질량 형 윤하중 시험기를 조립식 프리캐스트 패널형식의 단순교량에 적용하여 이동질량 반복주행실험을 수행하였다. 실험분석 결과 차량-교량간 상호작용은 교량의 동적거동에 예측 가능한 거동뿐 아니라 상반거동 및 반전현상등의 추가적인 다양한 거동을 발생시킴을 알 수 있었다.

When developing a vehicle control system, simulation methods are widely used to validate the whole system in the early development phase. With this regard, the simulator should correctly behave just like the real parts that are not yet implemented while interacting with already implemented parts in real-time. However, most simulators cannot provide functionally and temporally accurate behaviors of the target system. In order to overcome this limitation, this paper proposes a novel real-time simulation technique that can efficiently simulate the temporal behavior as well as the functional behavior of the simulation target system.

In this study, the steady state cornering behavior of a vehicle is investigated by using a numerical model that has parameters associated with roll motion. The nonlinear characteristics of tire cornering forces and aligning torques are presented in analytical forms using the magic formula. The sets of nonlinear algebraic equations that govern the cornering motion are solved by the Newton-Raphson iteration method. The vehicle design parameters are measured by SPMD(Suspension Parameter Measuring Device), and its results are verified by carrying out a skid pad test. The design parameters that are most affecting the steady state cornering behavior are classified into four factors, and the contributions of the factors to understeer gradient are then calculated.
