The styling of passenger car wheels and their effect on vehicle appearance has increased in importance in recent years. The wheel designer has been given the task of insuring that a wheel design meets its engineering objectives without affecting the styling theme. The wheel and tire system is considered as a vehicle component whose dynamic modal information of the tire/wheel system are employed in the modal synthesis model of the vehicle. The Vibration characteristics of a passenger car wheel play an important role to judge a ride comfortability and quality for a passenger car. In this paper, the vibration characteristics of a AI-alloy and steel wheel for passenger car are studied. Natural frequency, damping and mode shape are determined experimentally by frequency response function method. Results show that wheel material property, size and design are parameter for shift of natural frequency and damping.

The dynamic characteristics during gear ratio change including the disturbance of output torque has been one of the most important issues in the study of automatic transmissions of passenger cars. In this paper, to investigate the dynamic characteristics of a passenger car automatic transmission during gear ratio change, a dynamic model of the driveline of a passenger car focused on the automatic transmission is proposed and the dynamic simulation program is developed. The results of the simulation show good agreements with the experimental data, which process the use fullness of the dynamic model and the simulation of the driveline.

This paper describes the launching characteristics of a passenger car using a Push-Belt type Continuously Variable Transmission(CVT) which equipped a wet type multi-plate clutch asa starting device and a solid flywheel with a torsional damper for a torsional coupling device. To reduce the torsional vibration of the drive-line , some torsional coupling devices were used for the passenger car equipped CVT having the clutch as a starting device especially . In this study, we developed the computer simulation program to investigate the launching characteristics of a passenger car equipped CVT using the mathematical models of this system. For the mathematical models of the vehicle, the CVT, the we type multi-plate clutch and the torsional damper, we obtained the specification and the necessary data through the reverse engineering of those. For the verification of our analysis, we performed the test of prototype car with different throttle positions at road and dynamometer. The launching characteristics of a passenger car considered here an acceleration performance and an ascending performance.

The nonlinear characteristics of a suspension is directly related to the ride quality of a passenger car. In this study, the nonlinear characteristics of a spring and a damper of a passenger car is analyzed by dynamic experiments using the MTS single-axial testing machine. Also, a mathematical nonlinear dynamic model for the suspension is devised to estimate the ride quality using the K factor. And the effect on the variation of the parameters of the suspension is examined. The results showed that the dynamic viscosity of the oil in a damper was the parameter that most influeced the ride quality of a passenger car for the ride quality of a passenger car.

Since 2000, sports utility vehicles(SUVs) occupy about 40% of domestic vehicle sales. As sports utility vehicle sales are increased the probability of crash accident between SUVs and passenger vehicles increases. Generally, SUVs are heavier than passenger vehicles and their drive height and front end stillness are higher than passenger vehicles. Because of these characteristics SUVs cause more severe injury and fatal injury in SUV to passenger vehicle head-on impact. To evaluate SUV's aggessivity to passenger vehicle, we carried out SUV to passenger vehicle head-on crash test. And finally the way how to reduce incompatibility between SUVs and passenger vehicles is suggested.

In this study we have studied running stability, safety and passenger comfort of the Chinese first class passenger car made by our company and CCRW. A fine analysis model of 72 d.o.f. was constructed for simulating dynamic behavior of the car on straight and curved tracks having irregularity configurations. We have calculated the various characteristic values such as critical speed, lateral force, derailment ratio, wheel unloading ratio and passenger comfort index, then evaluated them by comparing with reference values.

지난 10년간 대한민국에서 발생한 전체 교통사고 수는 감소했지만, 사업용 차량의 교통사고는 꾸준히 증가하는 추세를 보이고 있다. 특히, 연중 많은 관광객이 방문하고 렌터카를 주 교통 수단으로 이용하는 제주도의 경우 렌터카 사고 문제로 심각한 인명 피해와 사회적 비용이 야기되고 있다. 이에 본 연구는 제주지역에서 발생한 렌터카 사고의 특성을 비사업용 일반승용차 사고 특성과 비교 분석하였고, 사고 감소 방안을 제시하였다. 본 연구에서는 지난 2년간(2014-2015년) 제주지역에서 발생한 918건의 렌터카 사고와 4,201건의 일반승용차 사고 데이터를 카이제곱검정 및 z-검정 등의 통계적 방법론을 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석결과 렌터카 사고와 일반승용차 사고의 특성은 상이한 것으로 나타났다. 렌터카 사고는 20-30대 젊은 운전자와 면허를 취득한지 얼마 되지 않은 운전자 비율이 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 인적 및 환경적 요인에 관련된 사고특성이 일반승용차와 유의한 수준 하에서 통계적으로 다르게 나타났다. 특히 운전 미숙, 낯선 지리, 익숙하지 않은 차량 등은 렌터카 사고를 유발하는 주요 원인으로 판단된다. 반면, 렌터카 사고 분석결과 차량적 요인에 대한 명확한 특징은 나타나지 않았다. 본 연구의 결과는 제주지역 뿐만 아니라 렌터카 운행이 증가하는 지역, 관광지 특성이 강한 지역에서 교통사고 특성 분석 및 교통안전대책 수립과정에서 유용하게 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

The nonlinear characteristics of a suspension is directly related to the ride quality of a passenger car. In this study, a dynamic experiment for a spring and a damper of a passenger car is performed to analyze the nonlinear characteristics using MTS 1-axial testing machine and a mathematical nonlinear dynamic suspension model based on experimental data is devised to estimate the ride quality using Billings' method. The devised nonlinear model is applied to the ride quality analysis using K factor and the effect of suspension parameters is examined. As a result, the friction between the cylinder and the piston of a damper is the most effective parameter for the ride quality of a passenger car.

Market segmentation is the act of dividing a market into distinct groups of buyers who might require separate products and/or marketing mixes. For the selection of target markets which is the first stage for the development of international market, international market segmentation should be preceded and objective criteria(variables) for the markets segmentation are necessory. Criteria of international market segmentation for passenger car are constituted with consumer characteristics, characteristics of consumer response, manufacturer characteristics and environment. Criteria of consumer characteristics include geographic variables(nation), G.N.P per capita and so on, criteria of characteristics of consumer response contain the number of possessed car, the number of registered car, the number of imported car and the number of possessed car per 1,000 persons.
