The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of the secondary tasks such as sending text message (STM) and searching navigation (SN) on skin conductance level (SCL) and driving performance of relatively aged and high-experienced drivers. The subjects included 26 taxi drivers; 12 males aged $56.3{\pm}4.4$ with $28.4{\pm}6.4$ years of driving experiences and 14 females aged $55.5{\pm}3.5$ with $19.4{\pm}5.0$ years of driving experiences. All subjects were instructed to keep a constant following distance (30m) from the car ahead and a given vehicle speed (80km/h or 100km/h) in a driving simulator. The relative change of SCL, vehicle velocity deviations, and average following distances were measured during driving only and driving with secondary tasks. The relative change of SCL, average following distance, and vehicle velocity deviation were more increased during the driving with secondary tasks than driving only. The relative change of SCL, vehicle velocity deviation, and average following distance were more affected by driving with 100km/hr than 80km/hr of a given vehicle speed. Secondary tasks increased a work load of drivers in term of SCL change, and decreased driving performance in terms of the vehicle velocity deviation and average following distance.

본 연구에서는 Solomon이 제안한 속도편차 (주행속도와 평균속도와의 차) 개념을 이용하여 주행위험도를 정립하고, 순서프로빗모형을 이용하여 주행속도선택 기반 주행위험도평가모델을 개발한다. 제안모델을 고속도로의 차내 교통안전정보 제공효과 평가실험에 적용하여, 주행위험에 미치는 다양한 요인의 효과를 분석한 결과, 다음과 같은 연구결과가 도출되었다. 첫째, 남성이 여성보다, 경력 운전자가 초보 운전자보다, 교통사고의 경험이 적은 운전자가 고속도로를 안전하게 주행할 확률이 높다. 둘째, 고속도로를 오후에 주행하는 경우, 도로표면이 젖어있는 경우, 교통량이 한산하여 서비스수준이 너무 좋은 경우 주행위험도는 증가한다. 셋째, 경사진 회전구간을 주행하는 경우와 도로연장이 긴 곡선부 구간을 주행하는 경우 주행위험도는 증가한다. 한편, 주행위험도 증가는 차내 교통안전정보를 제공함으로써 어느 정도 감소될 수 있는 것으로 나타나 차내 교통안전정보의 제공의 중요성이 확인되었다. 본 제안 모델은 새로 도입된 교통안전시설물의 교통안전도 효과를 평가 시 교통사고 자료가 부족하거나 없는 경우 교통안전도를 평가하는데 활용할 수 있다.

Since high-speed train is a dynamic load in which electric power is externally supplied, contact loss between the catenary and pantograph occurs. This phenomena including vibrations generates frequently irregular arcs, which, in turn causes EMI. Thus it is very important to develop the approach to reduce arc phenomenon by contact loss, as speed of electric railway vehicle increases. In case of an electric railway vehicle using electrical power, compared with diesel rolling stock, Power Line Disturbance(PLD) such as harmonics, transient voltage and current, Electromagnetic Interference(EMI), and dummy signal injection etc usually occur. In this study, the dynamic characteristics of a contact wire and a pantograph suppling electrical power to high-speed train are investigated with an electrical response point. To implement power line disturbance induced by contact loss phenomenon for high speed train operation, a hardware simulator which considers contact loss between contact wire and pantograph as well as contact wire deviation is developed. It is confirmed by the experiments that contact loss effect is largely dependent on voltage conditions when the contact loss occurs. Also, a passive filter is designed to reduce power disturbance and the designed system is verified by experiment.

본 연구에서는 2D 화면과 3D화면으로 각각 제시된 운전 시뮬레이션 환경에서 운전자의 종적 차량통제, 주관적 피로감 및 지각된 현실감에서의 차이를 비교하였다. 본 연구의 결과들을 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째, 실험참가자들은 미리 정해진 네 가지 수준의 목표속도(60, 80, 100 및 120km/h)를 유지할 때 3D 조건보다는 2D 조건에서, 그리고 목표속도가 낮을수록 목표속도에 비해 더 빠르게 운전하였고, 이러한 경향은 목표속도 조건과 상관없이 일정하였다. 둘째, 선행차량과의 차간거리 유지수행에 대한 분석 결과, 2D 조건에 비해 3D 조건에서 실험참가자들은 선행차량과 더 근접한 차간거리를 유지하며 주행하였는데, 특히 선행차량의 주행속도가 비교적 느렸던 조건(즉, 60km/h)에 비해 비교적 빨랐던 조건(즉, 80 및 100km/h)에서 이러한 경향이 두드러졌다. 셋째, 속도 유지 과제와 선행차량과의 차간거리 유지수행 모두에서 2D 조건에 비해 3D 조건에서 실험참가자들이 경험하는 피로감의 수준이 더 높았으나 주관적 현실감에 대한 평가에서는 두 가지 과제 모두에서 2D와 3D 조건에 따라 유의한 차이가 관찰되지 않았다.

As an important and relatively easy to implement technology for realizing Intelligent Transportation Systems(ITS), Adaptive Cruise Control(ACC) automatically adjusts vehicle speed and distance to a preceding vehicle, thus enhancing driver comfort and safety. One of the key issues associated with ACC development is usability and user acceptance. Control parameters in ACC should be optimized in such a way that the system does not conflict with driving behavior of the driver and further that the driver feels comfortable with ACC. A driving simulator is a comprehensive research tool that can be applied to various human factor studies and vehicle system development in a safe and controlled environment. This study investigated driving behavior with ACC for drivers with different driving styles using the driving simulator. The ACC simulation system was implemented on the simulator and its performance was evaluated first. The Driving Style Questionnaire(DSQ) was used to classify the driving styles of the drivers in the simulator experiment. The experiment results show that, when driving with ACC, preferred headway-time was 1.5 seconds regardless of the driving styles, implying consistency in driving speed and safe distance. However, the lane keeping ability reduced, showing the larger deviation in vehicle lateral position and larger head and eye movement. It is suggested that integration of ACC and lateral control can enhance driver safety and comfort even further.

도로 상의 안개는 교통류에 영향을 미치는 요인으로 알려져 있다. 이를 해소하기 위한 방안으로 최근 실시간 도로 및 기상조건에 따라 적절한 제한속도를 제공하는 가변제한속도시스템 VSL(Variable Speed Limit)을 도입하여 운영하고 있다. 하지만, VSL은 운전자가 제한속도를 준수하지 않을 경우 차량 간 속도 편차가 증가하여 오히려 교통사고의 위험도를 가중시킬 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구는 기상조건별 VSL 유 무에 따른 운전자의 가변속도제한의 순응 경향 및 교통특성 분석을 목적으로 한다. 차량 시뮬레이터를 이용한 주행 환경을 구현하여 실험을 수행하였으며 기상조건은 크게 맑음, 안개로 나누었다. 분석 결과, 피험자의 평균 속도는 대부분 제한속도를 순응하였지만 전체적으로 속도 편차는 가변제한속도를 적용할 경우에 감소하는 것으로 분석되었고 특히, 안개가 발생할 경우 더욱 뚜렷하게 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 기상조건이 운전자의 전방 시거에 영향을 미치면 VSL에 대한 운전자의 순응도는 높아지고, 속도 편차가 감소하여 교통안전성 향상에 도움을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 이는 향후 가변속도제한 운영속도를 산정하는데 기초자료로 사용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Since the application of chemicals in confined spaces under the canopy of an orchard is hazardous work, it is needed to develop an autonomous guidance system for an orchard sprayer. The autonomous guidance system developed in this research could steer the vehicle by tracking an overhead guidance rail, which was installed on an existing frame structure. The autonomous guidance system consisted of an 80196 kc microprocessor, an inclinometer, two interface circuits of actuators for steering and ground speed control, and a fuzzy control algorithm. In addition, overhead guidance rails for both straight and curved paths were devised, and a trolley was designed to move smoothly along the overhead guidance rails. Evaluation tests showed that the experimental vehicle could travel along the desired path at a ground speed of 30 $\sim$ 50 cm/s with a RMS error of 5 cm and maximum deviation of less than 12 cm. Even when the vehicle started with an initial offset or a deflected heading angle, it could move quickly to track the desired path after traveling 2 $\sim$ 3 m. The vehicle could also complete turns with a curvature of 1 m. However, at a ground speed of 50 cm/s, the vehicle tended to over-steer, resulting in a zigzag motion along the straight path, and tended to turn outward from the projected line of the guidance rail.

국내에서 개발된 한국형 틸팅열차는 현재 시제차량 제작을 마치고, 충북선을 시작으로 시운전 시험이 단계적으로 진행되고 있다. 시운전 시험에서는 한국형 틸팅열차의 시스템 안정화를 위해 차량 외에 궤도, 구조물, 전차선, 신호 등 각 시스템 상호간의 인터페이스 검증이 필요하며, 선로구축물 분야에서는 개발차량의 증속이 궤도구조에 미치는 영향을 비롯한 궤도부담력 검토를 통해 궤도구조의 안정성과 주행안정성 평가가 수행되어야 한다. 따라서 본 연구에 서는 완화곡선구간을 주행하는 틸팅차량(한빛200호), 고속차량(KTX) 및 일반차량(무궁화)에 의해 궤도에서 발생하는 동적 윤중 및 횡압을 측정하였다. 측정데이터를 통해 차종별 주행패턴을 비교하고 윤중과 횡압의 증감율을 확률적으로 분석하였다. 분석결과, 고정식 대치구조를 갖는 기존 차량의 캔트변화에 따른 발생 윤중 및 횡압의 분포범위는 일정 범위 내에서 작은 편차로 분포하였다. 반면 진자식 대차구조인 틸팅차량의 경우 캔트변화에 따른 차체의 틸팅작용에 의해 비교적 넓은 범위에 큰 편차로 궤도작용력이 분포하는 것으로 나타났다.

It has been applied several ways in order to prevent traffic accidents and speed management on the road which is one of very important factors to prevent accidents. In this study, it is analyzed whether the facility such as the flashing and crosswalk, speed cameras and intermittent warning signs affect on a driving deceleration or not. It has been shown that the flashing and crosswalk and speed cameras except intermittent warning signs play a role of reducing the driving speed. The result showed that these traffic safety facilities help to improve the average speed as well as velocity distribution which was derived by the speed deviation even if there were the difference between facilities. Speed limit display does not affect the deceleration of the driver. Therefore, it was founded in this research that there were the driving speed reduction effect due to the facilities on the road. In order to control the driving speed on the road, it is necessary to install facilities with appropriate location and spacing on the road. In addition, place that turns out suppressed speeding through speed management also are required adequate facilities such as speed cameras.

In this study, the driving performances of elderly who's age is over 65 were evaluated. The driving simulation was conducted using a compact driving simulation (CDS) and the simulation scenarios were developed from actual roads by replicating geometry of skewed intersection and traffic control devices located in Jungnang-gu, Seoul, Korea. 27 elderly drivers and 10 non-elderly drivers were recruited and participated on the virtual turning right and going straight driving experiment of CDS. Virtual driving data of driving time, speed, distance, acceleration and deceleration speeds, brake power, and steering wheel rotation angle were recorded and analyzed. Generally, elderly driver took more times to pass through the skewed intersection road and showed lower approaching speed as much as 40% and 25% in case of turning right and going straight scenarios respectively. The speed deviation at skewed intersection road between elderly and non-elderly driver is expected to cause frequent lane changes and overtaking.
