In recent times, fuel economy enhancement and environmental regulation compliance have become the main topics of interest in the automobile industry. Electric vehicles are desirable alternatives to the existing cars that employ internal combustion engines. Specifically, electric vehicles are equipped with inverters, motors, and a gearbox instead of engines and transmission mechanisms. The gearbox is a key component, used to transmit power from the electric motor to the wheel. Therefore, the design of the gearbox is critical. However, most engineers design gears based only on their experience because no standards pertaining to the design factor exist, other than those for the gear ratios. To overcome this problem, the structural stabilities must be examined considering the design factors of the gears. In this study, we considered the module and number of teeth as the main factors. The constraints corresponded to the final gear ratio and fixed distance between each axle of the shafts. Moreover, a structural analysis was conducted, and the variation trend of the maximum equivalent stress against changes in the gear module and number of teeth was examined. By performing such an analysis, the structural stability in the design of a gear system could be effectively investigated.

최근 KTX (Korean Train Express) 열차의 사고의 대부분은 기기의 오작동, 차량 부품의 노후와에 따른 고장 및 장애발생, 신호장치에 대한 인적오류 등이 주된 원인이였다. 특히, 차량부품 중 제동 디스크의 파손은 하부 차축 및 차륜에 충격을 가해 탈선의 우려와 고속 충돌 등 대형 인명 피해를 낳을 수 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서 KTX의 제동 디스크(Solid Type, Ventilation Type)를 형상화하고, 이를 동작시켜 균열을 측정하여 DB화 할 수 있는 균열검측시스템을 구축하였다. 제동 디스크의 표면균열을 검사하기 위하여 Rayleigh wave를 이용하였으며 수침기법으로는 제동디스크 장착상태에서 탐상의 어려움이 인하여 국부수침 탐상기법을 활용하여 제동디스크의 초음파 검사모듈을 개발하였다. 또한 제동디스크의 회전에 따라 측정된 균열을 저장할 수 있는 균열검측 자동화장치와 제동 디스크의 초음파 검사모듈을 이용하여 제동 디스크의 표면결함을 평가하였다.

Korean High Speed Train(KHST) has been tested on the high speed test line in Osung site of Korea High Speed Rail Construction Authority (KHRC). since it was developed as G7 Project Plan In 2002. This paper introduces the dynamic test devices in KHST and shows the comparison between the results of test and theoretical computing results which derive from the new model for KHST dynamic behavior. Previous computer simulation model for KHST was developed to review wether the vehicle system was satisfied with the dynamic performance requirements during the design procedure. But It should be applied the results of the parts test for suspension elements in order to compare between the results of computation and real test. Using VAMPIRE Program made by AEA Technology in UK. the new model also was modified. This paper shows that the static wheel loads calculated from new model is similar to test results. For test on high speed line, we prepared the test devices for evaluating the dynamic performances. which was consisted of the accelerometers( based on Kisler Co.) and the data aquisition systems (based on National instrument Co.), and test program coded by LabView 6i program. These lest devices and programs are flexible to extension the channels for adding sensors and connect to the ethernet network. The acceleration of car bodies, bogie frames and axle boxes were compared between the results of computation and test at 150km/. This paper shows that the results of test were high in high frequency band range but similar frequency band range. It might be considered that these differences were caused by the test which did not performed at constant speed for comparison analysis. Also. It will be able to understand the differences and make better results through a lot of tests planed in future.

본 다축 차량은 험지와 야전에서 높은 이동성 때문에 비포장도로를 주행해야 하는 군용차량으로 사용된다. 특히 군용차량은 군 요구 사항에 의거 기본적으로 60% 경사로에서 안정적인 등판 성능을 지녀야 한다. 따라서 본 논문은 최적 타이어 힘 분배 방법을 통한 6WD/6WS차량의 등판능력 향상을 다루었다. 경사로 등판 시 사용할 최적 타이어 힘 분배 방법을 위하여 운전자로부터, 목표로 하는 종 방향 힘과 횡 방향 힘, 요 모멘트를 계산하였고, 마찰 원이론과 목적함수에 따른 최적화 된 토크가 각 륜에 분배되었다. 알고리즘 성능을 확인하기 위해서, 트럭심 소프트웨어를 이용하여 시뮬레이션 하였고, 비교를 위하여 2대의 차량을 제안하였다. 한 대의 차량은 최적타이어 힘 분배 방법이 적용되었고, 나머지 한 대는 궤도 차량과 같은 균등 힘 분배 방법이 적용되었다. 경사로에서 등판능력은 최적 타이어 힘 분배 방법에 의해서 향상 되어졌다.

Traction performance of a tractor varies depending on soil conditions. Sinkage and slip of the driving wheel for tractor frequently occur in a reclaimed land. The objective of this study was to develop a tractor suitable for a reclaimed land. Traction performance was evaluated according to soil conditions of reclaimed land and paddy field. Field experiments were conducted at two test sites (Fields A: paddy field; and Field B: reclaimed land). The tractor load measurement system was composed of an axle rotation speed sensor, a torque meter, a six-component load cell, GPS, and a DAQ (Data Acquisition System). Soil properties including soil texture, water content, cone index, and electrical conductivity (EC) were measured. Referring to previous researches, the tractor traveling speed was set to B3 (7.05 km/h), which was frequently used in ridge plow tillage. Soil moisture contents were 33.2% and 48.6% in fields A and B, respectively. Cone index was 2.1 times higher in field A than in field B. When working in the reclaimed land, slip ratios were about 10.5% and 33.1% for fields A and B, respectively. The engine load was used almost 100% of all tractors under the two field conditions. Traction powers were 31.9 kW and 24.2 kW for fields A and B, respectively. Tractive efficiencies were 83.3% and 54.4% for fields A and B, respectively. As soil moisture increased by 16.4%, the tractive efficiency was lowered by about 28.9%. Traction performance of tractor was significantly different according to soil conditions of fields A and B. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the traction performance of tractor for smooth operations in all soil conditions including a reclaimed land by reflecting data of this study.
