Remote-controlled and autonomous driving based on artificial intelligence are key elements required for unmanned combat vehicles. The required capability of such an unmanned combat vehicle should be expressed in reasonable required operational capability(ROC). To this end, in this paper, the requirements of an unmanned combat vehicle operated under a manned-unmanned teaming were analyzed. The functional requirements are remote operation and control, communication, sensor-based situational awareness, field environment recognition, autonomous return, vehicle tracking, collision prevention, fault diagnosis, and simultaneous localization and mapping. Remote-controlled and autonomous driving of unmanned combat vehicles could be achieved through the combination of these functional requirements. It is expected that the requirement analysis results presented in this study will be utilized to satisfy the military operational concept and provide reasonable technical indicators in the system development stage.

This paper describes autonomous emergency braking systems (AEB) for elderly drivers designed to consider their driving characteristics. With aging, perception-reaction time, and decision-making time increase accordingly. Without being aware of these performance degradations, however, changes in driving patterns due to increased alertness while driving lead to vehicle crashes. Therefore, it is necessary to develop an autonomous emergency braking system by incorporating the characteristics of the elderly driver. In order to enhance the driver acceptance of older people, perception-reaction time, alertness, and ride comfort need to be considered for conventional autonomous emergency braking systems (C-AEB). Proactive AEB(P-AEB) algorithm has been proposed to reflect human factor of elderly driver above. The performance of the proposed algorithm has been evaluated through MATLAB simulink simulation studies. It has been shown from the computer simulations that the proposed P-AEB algorithm enhances the driver acceptance of older people by improving ride comfort while ensuring safety of vehicle.

Computer simulation significantly reduces the high costs associated with actual crash tests and is expanding due to its ability to analyze various test results quantitatively that are difficult to measure in real tests. Research on evaluation technologies is limited according to the finite element analysis, which aims to replace structural verification testing. In this study, considerations for virtual crash tests were derived, and the validity of the zero-energy mode (hourglass mode) was analyzed as part of the considerations for validating the results of vehicle crash simulations. The study reflects on the considerations for virtual crash tests and the variation in hourglass coefficient values affects the occurrence of the hourglass mode. As the hourglass coefficient changes, the maximum hourglass energy reaches over 5% of the maximum internal energy, necessitating a conservative review. A comprehensive study of the maximum hourglass energy is required, considering additional analysis results for various models and collision conditions.

In the world, traffic accidents and environmental pollution caused by the increase of vehicles are becoming a serious social problem. According to the 2016 data published by the Korea Highway Traffic Authority, Korea owns 49.9 vehicles per 100 people. This is the 28th largest number among the 35 OECD member countries. In addition, the number of deaths from traffic accidents in Korea totaled 4,292, of which 1,714 were caused by traffic accidents involving vehicles and pedestrians. To reduce these human casualties, the automotive industry is constantly working on the development and commercialization of Adaptive Driver Assist System (ADAS). ADAS is the system providing convenience and safeness for drivers. In general, ADAS consists of Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), Highway Driving Assist (HDA), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS). Among them, the AEB detects the possibility of collision by the vehicle itself and plays a role of avoiding the collision or reducing the damage through active braking. For such AEB, Euro NCAP has been developing test-evaluation methods for the vulnerable since 2017. Therefore, In this paper analyzes the scenario of Euro NCAP VRU Test Protocol v3.0.1, which will be established in 2020, and proposes test conditions according to the Korean road traffic law. In addition, the reliability of the proposed scenario and test conditions was verified by comparing and analyzing the proposed theoretical evaluation formulas and actual test results.

교통 신호 위반 사고는 운전자의 주장이 서로 상반되면 원인 규명이 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 사례를 중심으로 교통 사고 분석을 위해 사용하는 차량 충돌 해석 시뮬레이션 프로그램인 PC-CRASH을 이용하여 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고, 이를 통하여 교차로에서 신호 위반 차량을 규명하는 과정을 제시하였다. 첫째, 신호 위반의 원인 규명이 분명하지 않은 운전자나 목격자의 진술을 배제한다. 둘째, 사고 차량의 최종 자세, 최종위치, 파손 부위, 조향 여부, 제동 여부, 노면 흔적을 수집하고, 정지선으로부터 충돌지점까지 조사한다. 셋째, 사고 차량의 충돌 상황과 최종 정지 자세에 부합될 때까지 시뮬레이션 자료를 수정 입력한다. 넷째, 시뮬레이션 결과가 충돌 상황과 부합되면 운전자의 진술과 부합되는지 교차 검증하여 사실 규명을 입증한다. 본 연구의 시뮬레이션의 결과는 교차로 내 좌회전 신호에 렉서스는 약 55 km/h로 진입하였고 소나타는 교차로의 차량 직진 신호를 보고 72km/h로 교차로에 진입하여 렉서스와 충돌하였다. 그러므로 소나타의 신호위반으로 규명되고 소나타 운전자, 목격자, 경찰의 주장은 모순이다.

철도차량에서 있어서 충돌 시 철도차량의 전두부가 운전자 및 승객의 공간을 침투하는 위험성을 항상 내포하고 있다. 이러한 위험성을 줄이기 위해서, 철도차량의 충돌에 관한 연구들이 전세계적으로 활발히 진행 중에 있다. 2010 년에 미국연방법규인 CFR (Code of Federal Regulations)은 단부 구조물 (end frame)의 구성요소인 충돌 기둥 및 모서리 기둥에 대한 압괴조건을 추가하여 개정되었다. 본 연구에서는 충돌 기둥에 대해서 CFR 법규에 명시된 조건에 대해서 압괴해석 및 압괴시험을 수행하였고, 법규에서 근본적으로 고려한 충돌체와의 충돌해석을 수행하여 그 결과들을 비교하였다. 이를 통하여, 단부 구조물의 압괴특성과 충돌특성을 파악하고 해석의 신뢰성을 검토하여 다양한 단부 구조물의 개발에 있어서 압괴해석의 유용성을 확인하는데 그 목적이 있다.

차량충돌은 가장 빈도가 높은 교량 붕괴의 원인 중 하나로 알려져 있으며, 최근 재해에 대하여 대책 수립 및 관리의 필요성이 공익 안전을 위해 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 차량 충돌로 인한 교량 피해에 대하여 위험도 분석을 실시하였다. 위험도 분석 단계는 세 단계로 구분하였고, 예비위험분석 단계에서는 충돌의 발생가능성을 확인하며, 기본위험분석 단계에서는 발생가능성, 취약성, 중요도에 대한 위험도 점수평가를 통한 위험도 등급을 산정하였다. 마지막 상세위험분석 단계에서는 위험도가 높은 등급에 대하여 상세분석을 실시한다. 본 연구에서는 예비위험분석과 기본위험 단계에 집중하여 위험도 등급 구분을 위한 네 가지의 급간분류법을 적용하였다. 충돌 사례와 분석 결과를 비교하여 적절한 급간분류법을 결정하고자 하였다. 본 연구에서 사용된 위험도 분석법은 유사한 재난에 대한 대책수립을 위해 사용될 수 있을 것이다.

This paper presents a path planning method of the sensor based intelligent vehicle using fuzzy logic controller for avoidance of moving obstacles in unknown environments. Generally it is too difficult and complicated to control intelligent vehicle properly by recognizing unknown terrain with sensors because the great amount of imprecise and ambiguous information has to be considered. In this respect a fuzzy logic can manage such the enormous information in a quite efficient manner. Furthermore it is necessary to use the relative velocity to consider the mobility of obstacles, In order to avoid moving obstacles we must deliberate not only vehicle's relative speed toward obstacles but also self-determined acceleration and steering for the satisfaction of avoidance efficiency. In this study all the primary factors mentioned before are used as the input elements of fuzzy controllers and output signals to control velocity and steering angle of the vehicle. The main purpose of this study is to develop fuzzy controllers for avoiding collision with moving obstacles when they approach the vehicle travelling with straight line and for returning to original trajectory. The ability are and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are demonstrated by simulations and experiments.

This study was conducted to develop a vehicle, leading or following a worker at a certain distance to assist laborious transporting works in greenhouses. A prototype vehicle was tested in the practical field conditions using a developed control algorithm. Results of this study were summarized as following: 1. The sensing device consisted of infrared sensors was attached to the front of the vehicle and turning following algorithm was developed to make the vehicle turned as it follows a worker simultaneously. 2. The measured average power consumptions were 110W and 89W, equivalent to 5.2-6.4 hrs battery durations, at low speed with and without the maximum payload, respectively. 3. Results of the travel tests showed that the deviations from the center of row spacing were $\pm$100 mm along the ridge and $\pm$85 mm along the hydroponic bed in the greenhouse. Therefore, the worker-following transport vehicle was feasible to travel along the row without collision in the greenhouse.
