  • In this paper, a study of the design of automotive communication lamps using microlens arrays (MLAs) was conducted. With the development of autonomous driving technology, automobiles need communication lamps to communicate with pedestrians. To reduce the size of the optical system and secure high light intensity, the communication lamp's optical system was designed using an MLA. In addition, to secure a clear image on inclined ground, the design was carried out considering the overlap method. After that, the improved performance was confirmed by comparing it to the MLA optical system before overlapping.

  • At present, with the development of precision instruments, high dimensional accuracy of workpieces must be ensured. In particular, for the aluminum alloys used in automobiles, the surface roughness of the workpiece is extremely important. The dimensional accuracy and surface roughness of the workpiece is considerably affected by the rotational accuracy of the rotor. Therefore, to enhance the rotational accuracy, various variables such as those related to the components such as bearings, motors, and end mills, rotational speeds, and vibrations must be considered. In this study, the difference in the quality of the workpieces was compared considering the weight imbalance and rotational speed as variables.

  • When a dispute or conflict occurs, standard methods for resolving them include resolution by trial or resolutions outside of courts. An alternative dispute resolution method called ADR that aims at remedying disputes instead of filing lawsuits is used commonly throughout the world, including the US and China. ADR, which is a remedy method outside of courts, includes negotiation, arbitration, or mediation between the concerned parties, and the arbitration system has several advantages. The Lemon Law is a consumer protection law of the United States that was enacted in 1975. This law prescribes that when specified quality standards are not met repeatedly due to defects in vehicles or electronic products, the manufacturer must provide exchanges or refunds to consumers. Korea also enacted a newly revised automobile management act, the Korea "Lemon Law," on January 1, 2019, which allows consumers to receive exchanges or refunds from the manufacturer if the same malfunction repeatedly occurs after purchasing a new automobile. There have recently been many cases of large fires occurring while driving import vehicles, causing huge public rage; therefore, interest is being focused on the revised automobile management act. Part 5-2 of the automobile management act was newly added to implement automobile exchange or refund arbitration systems. It is desirable to utilize the arbitration system to smoothly resolve automobile-related disputes that have recently increased significantly, and it is thus being used frequently for practical purposes.

  • In this study, the thermal characteristics of cold and hot water mattress units equipped with thermoelectric modules were investigated via numerical analyses. Cold and hot water mattress products that are currently in existence use manual methods requiring refrigerants to be added to the hot water boiler. However, the cold and hot water mattress units using thermoelectric modules can provide improved efficiency via energy savings and actively resolving environmental pollution problems. To determine the efficiency of the thermoelectric module, the mattress was modeled and its efficiency was analyzed for the cooling and heating processes using two 100-W-class and one 200-W-class thermoelectric modules, respectively. From the results of this study, it was confirmed that when two 100-W-class modules were used, the application area was larger than when a single 200-W-class module was used, with uniform temperature distribution and improved performance compared to existing products in terms of electrical energy.

  • Purpose This study verified the moderating effect of consumer knowledge in relation to the factors affecting the acceptance intention of autonomous vehicles by adding trust to the United Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology model for the commercialization of autonomous vehicles. Design/methodology/approach For this purpose, this study conducted a survey on general consumers who are interested in automobiles. A total of 250 questionnaires were distributed and collected, and 242 questionnaires were used for analysis. To test the hypotheses, multiple regression analysis and multiple group analysis were performed. Findings Performance expectations, effort expectations, social influence, and trust were found to have a positive effect on the acceptance intention of autonomous vehicles. In addition, consumer knowledge between performance expectation and acceptance intention and between effort expectation and acceptance intention was confirmed as a variable that can moderate the relationship.

  • In this study, the cause of the decrease in transmittance of the outer lens among the causes of the decrease in the amount of light in the automobile headlamp was identified, and the improvement method was selected to determine the effect. The causes of defects that lower the transmittance of the outer lens are divided into a moisture problem and a haze problem. The moisture problem is caused by the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the head lamp, and the haze problem occurs when the heat inside the head lamp evaporates the haze component contained in the plastic material and attaches it to the outer lens. In order to improve the haze problem that occurs in plastic raw materials, the structures of the bulb light source type headlamp and the LED chip light source type headlamp were analyzed. Among them, the housing material of the LED chip light source type headlamp, which is structurally prone to haze gas, was selected as the test target. In the mass-production injection process of the housing, the drying process was selected as a method to minimize haze gas without adding a separate production process. After extracting a sample every drying time at a constant drying temperature, the sample was put into a haze tester and the residual amount of haze gas was measured. As a result, it was confirmed that the residual amount of Haze gas in the material decreased as the drying time increased.

  • In the automotive industry, the development of automobiles to meet safety requirements is becoming increasingly complex. This is because quality evaluation agencies in each country are continually strengthening new safety standards for vehicles. Among these various requirements, collision safety must be satisfied by controlling airbags, seat belts, etc., and can be defined as post-crash safety. Apart from this safety system, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) use advanced detection sensors, GPS, communication, and video equipment to detect the hazard and notify driver before the collision. However, research to improve passenger safety in case of an accident by using the sensor of active safety represented by ADAS in the existing passive safety is limited to the level that utilizes the sudden braking level of the FCA (Forward Collision-avoidance Assist) system. Therefore, this study aims to develop logic that can improve passenger protection in case of an accident by using ADAS information and driving information secured before a collision. The proposed logic was constructed based on LSTM deep learning techniques and trained using crash test data.
