To estimate the reliability of the standard electric multiple unit developed by Korea Railroad Research Institute, the vehicle system composed of 4 cars is divided into 14 subsystems. The 14 subsystems are connected in series. For each subsystem except for car body and bogie, failure rate is evaluated by an optimal failure model used in reliability engineering. For car body and bogie probabilistic structural integrity analysis is carried out. The distribution of failure rate of each part and system is assumed to be exponential. The estimated MTBF of the vehicle satisfies the planned MTBF.

It appears that it is possible for us to make a wireless communication of even home-network system within car by integrating with the Ubiquitous such as mobile phone, wireless Internet, GPS and DMB in the future. If the present wireless surroundings within the car are connected with very high-speed wireless network as measurement system for wireless communication surroundings within this car in the future, it will develop the complicated communication conditions such as safe checkup, communication between systems within car, and wireless communication for user entertainment unlike universal communication conditions. Accordingly, there is the necessity of the device that can measure the interference of electric wave, communication speed and communication quality by a kind of each car. This paper aims at making the real measurement device to raise the reliability of each Application for inquiring into the interference about each other in the frequency band used under Telematics surroundings.

In recent days, according as ergonomics and aesthetic engineering are important factors in the product market, there is a demand to develop automobile seat and interior designs which are focused on sensitive elements such as aesthetic and comfort features in order to satisfy the sensitive needs of consumers. To meet such demands, car seats are turning into functional and sensitive products that reflect elements of function and entertainment. According to such trends, this research is aimed to develop the illuminating car seat fabric that serve such functions as recognizing and reacting to car environments, which includes sensing over-speed, open doors, and unfastened safety belts through the illuminating car seat fabrics by optical fiber. For this purpose, basic physical properties of optical fiber are analyzed, appropriate weaving and etching technologies are applied, and the woven fabric of optical fiber for car seats are illuminating depend upon car environments. Moreover, the applicable woven fabric of optical fiber is deduced after evaluating the physical properties (such as tensile strength, heatproof, anti-fouling, washable and combustible traits) for the appropriateness of applying the woven fabric of optical fiber to car seats. For this purpose, the woven fabric of optical fiber is covered according to car seat processes; the optical fiber applied to seats is composed that it may be connected to one end of the connector linked to a LED so that it may perform functions like sensing over-speed, open doors, and unfastened safety belts; the sensed signals are transmitted to the control part, and luminescent signals are transmitted to LED.

In this paper, an algorithm of reconstructing the armature current of the battery car is presented by using MOSFET's on-voltage of the dc chopper and a corresponding circuit is developed with the low-cost analog multiplexer. For driving comfort, the armature current of the motor or the traction force should be properly controlled when the car changes the direction and is accelerated or decelerated and climbs up or down the hill. Therefore, an information of the current is needed for the traction control. The proposed reconstruction algorithm is experimentally verified.

This paper presents the case studies on the friction related wears of an automotive tire, which is strongly connected to the safety and comfort of a driver during a running of a car. Wear scars of a tire tread are affected by various causes such as an air pressure, a wheel alignment, a driving speed, road conditions, starting and braking habits of a driver. The data were collected from used tires for a replacement at the car service center. Most of the wear problems came from the improper repair and adjustment of revolving components, which cause an unbalanced wear of a tread part of a tire. Thus, the regular checking of a tire radically reduces the wear scars of a tire and may increase a driving safety and a fuel economy of a car and a wear life of a tire.

As the amount of vehicle's diagnostics data increases, the actors in automotive ecosystem will encounter difficulties to perform a real time analysis in order to simulate or to design new services according to the data gathered from the connected cars. In this paper, we have conducted a study of a Big Data solution that expresses the essential deep analytics to process and analyze vast quantities of vehicles on board diagnostics data generated by cars. Hadoop and its ecosystems have been deployed to process a large data and delivered useful outcomes that may be used by actors in automotive ecosystem to deliver new services to car owners. As the Intelligent transport system is involved to guarantee safety, reduce rate of crash and injured in the accident due to speed, addressing big data solution based on vehicle diagnostics data is upcoming to monitor real time outcome from it and making collection of data from several connected cars, facilitating reliable processing and easier storage of data collected.

To protect the occurrence of the oxidation of car body, we developed antioxidizing device made with sacrificial anode. Because car body is made of iron and iron-alloy and oxidation potential of Mg, Al and Zn is higher than that of iron, sacrificial anodes were made with Mg, Al and Zn. Accordingly, Mg, Al and Zn are better oxidizing than car body, iron and iron-alloy can be protected from oxidizing. We have made an antioxidizing device and evaluated their anti-corrosive effect for iron piece in the solution of hydrochloric, nitric and sulfuric acid using balance, SEM and XPS. When iron pieces were connected with antioxidizing device of car body, weight loss by oxidation was remarkably reduced and surface corrosion of iron piece was protected. It was shown that the surface of iron pieces which is not con-nected to the device was changed to iron(Ⅲ) oxide, Fe$_2$O$_3$. Therefore, if this device is attached to car body, corrosion and oxidation of car body will be reduced, considerably.

To improve passenger convenience and safety, today's vehicle is evolving into a "connected vehicle," which mounts various sensors, electronic control devices, and wired/wireless communication devices. However, as the number of connections to external networks via the various electronic devices of connected vehicles increases and the internal structures of vehicles become more complex, there is an increasing chance of encountering issues such as malfunctions due to various functional defects and hacking. Recalls and indemnifications due to such hacking or defects, which may occur as vehicles evolve into connected vehicles, are becoming a new risk for automakers, causing devastating financial losses. Therefore, automakers need to make voluntary efforts to comply with security ethics and strengthen their responsibilities. In this study, we investigated potential security issues that may occur under a connected vehicle environment (vehicle-to-vehicle, vehicle-to-infrastructure, and internal communication). Furthermore, we analyzed several case studies related to automaker's legal risks and responsibilities and identified the security requirements and necessary roles to be played by each player in the automobile development process (design, manufacturing, sales, and post-sales management) to enhance their responsibility, along with measures to manage their legal risks.
