The bonding interface of the concrete slab track and cement-asphalt mortar layer plays an important role in transferring load and restraining the track slab's deformation for slab track structures without concrete bollards in high-speed railway. However, the interfacial bond-slip behavior is seldom considered in the structural analysis; no credible constitutive model has been presented until now. Elaborating the field tests of concrete to cement-asphalt mortar interface subjected to longitudinal and transverse shear loads, this paper revealed its bond capacity and failure characteristics. Interfacial fractures all happen on the contact surface of the concrete track slab and mortar-layer in the experiments. Aiming at this failure mechanism, an interfacial mechanical model that employed the bilinear local bond-slip law was established. Then, the interfacial shear stresses of different loading stages and the load-displacement response were derived. By ensuring that the theoretical load-displacement curve is consistent with the experiment result, an interfacial bond-slip constitutive model including its the corresponding parameters was proposed in this paper. Additionally, a finite element model was used to validate this constitutive model further. The constitutive model presented in this paper can be used to describe the real interfacial bonding effect of slab track structures with similar materials under shear loads.

차량의 엔진성능에 따라 구동성능이 결정되는 도로주행차량과 달리, 포장되지 않은 지반 위를 주행하는 야지궤도차량의 구동성능은 지반-궤도 접지면에서 발생하는 지반의 전단 및 침하현상에 의해 제한된다. 특히 차량의 중량에 의해 발생하는 정적침하 및 슬립에 의해 유발되는 슬립침하는 지반-궤도 접지면에서 지반저항력을 발현시켜 야지궤도 차량의 구동을 직접적으로 방해하는 요소로 작용한다. 따라서 야지궤도차량의 구동성능을 확보하기 위해서는 정적침하 및 슬립침하를 평가하고 제한할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 야지궤도차량의 중량 및 구동지반의 특성이 슬립침하에 미치는 영향을 종합적으로 평가하기 위하여, 다양한 연직하중 및 지반조건에서 모형궤도시험을 수행하였다. 모형 시험 결과, 모든 시험조건에 대해 슬립율이 증가할수록 슬립침하가 증가했지만, 그 증가량은 점차 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 궤도시스템에 재하 된 상부 연직하중이 크고 모형지반의 상대밀도가 작을수록 슬립침하가 커지며 이에 따라 지반저항력도 증가하는 것으로 평가되었다. 추가적으로, 평가된 슬립침하를 각 시험조건 별로 산정된 정적침하로 정규화 시킨 뒤 이를 슬립율에 관한 함수로 나타내어 야지궤도차량의 침하량 및 지반저항력 산정 시 활용 가능하도록 하였다.

The longitudinal velocity (forward speed) having significant importance in proper running of railway wheelset on track, depends greatly upon the adhesion ratio and creep analysis by implementation of suitable dynamic system on contamination. The wet track condition causes slip and slide of vehicle on railway tracking, whereas high speed may also increase slip and skidding to severe wear and deterioration of mechanical parts. The basic aim of this research is to design appropriate model aimed estimator that can be used to control railway vehicle forward velocity to avoid slip. For the filtration of disturbance procured during running of vehicle, the kalman filter is applied to estimate the actual signal on preferered samples of creep co-efficient for observing the applied attitude of noise. Thus error level is detected on higher and lower co-efficient of creep to analyze adhesion to avoid slip and sliding. The skidding is usually occurred due to higher forward speed owing to procured disturbance. This paper guides to minimize the noise and error based upon creep coefficient.

The mobility of tracked vehicles is mainly influenced by the interaction between the tracks and soil. When the track of a tracked vehicle rotates, there will be a slip effect between the track and the soil, which creates a track shear force and the vehicle’s driving force. In this paper, the modeling of a working tool such as a trenching cutter and a tracked vehicle that is the lower frame of a track-based operating robot was performed. In addition, a numerical simulation was executed to verify the performance of the design objectives and the motion characteristics of the combined system.

This paper describes a robust and fast wheel slip tracking control using a moving sliding surface technique. A traction control system (TCS) is the active safety system used to prevent the wheel slipping and thus improve acceleration performance, stability and steerability on slippery roads through the engine torque and/or brake torque control. This paper presents a wheel slip control for TCS through the engine torque control. The proposed controller can track a reference input wheel slip in a predetermined time. The design strategy investigated is based on a moving sliding surface that only contains the error between the reference input wheel slip and the actual wheel slip. The used moving sliding mode was originally designed to ensure that the states remain on a sliding surface, thereby achieving robustness and eliminating chattering. The improved robustness in driving is important due to changes, such as from dry road to wet road or vice versa which always happen in working conditions. Simulations are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed moving sliding mode controller.

A computer program was developed to simulate effect of the initial track tension on the tractive performance of tracked vehicles. The performance was evaluated in terms of drawbar pull, motion resistance, tractive coefficient and tractive efficiency. Results of the simulation showed that increase in track tension decreases the sinkage and mean maximum pressure in clay, making the ground pressure distribution more uniform. This tendency became more evident when the number of roadwheels increased. However, such change in MMPs was negligible in firm soils. Motion resistance was also decreased with increase in track tension and the number of roadwheels. Under weak soil conditions, tractive coefficient and efficiency increased generally as the track tension increased for a slip range of 10∼30%. For slippage less than 3∼4%, however, the tractive coefficient decreased with increase in track tension. In general, it was known that increasing track tension improves tractive performance in weak soil conditions. However, high track tension can reduce efficiency due to the increment of internal motion resistance caused by increased track tension.

A test miner named MineRo was constructed for the purpose of shallow water test of mining performance. In June of 2009, the performance test was conducted in depth of 100 m, 5 km away from Hupo-port (Korean East Sea), to assess if the developed system is able to collect and lift manganese nodules from seafloor. In August of 2010, in-situ test of automatic path tracking control of MineRo was performed in depth of 120 m at the same site. For path tracking control, a localization algorithm determining MineRo's position on seabed is prerequisite. This study proposes an improved underwater navigation algorithm through estimation of MineRo's kinematic parameters. In general, the kinematic parameters such as track slips and slip angle are indirectly calculated using the position data from USBL (Ultra-Short Base Line) system and heading data from gyro sensors. However, the obtained data values are likely to be different from the real values, primarily due to the random noise of position data. The aim of this study is to enhance the reliability of the algorithm by measuring kinematic parameters, track slips and slip angle.

This paper presents the sliding mode control methods for anti-lock brake system (ABS) with the friction force observer. Using a simplified quarter car model, the sliding mode controller for ABS is designed to track the desired wheel slip ratio. Here, new method to find the desired wheel slip ratio which produces the maximum friction force between road and tire is suggested. The desired wheel slip ratio is varying according road and tire conditions to produce maximum friction force. In order to find optimum desired wheel slip ratio, the sliding mode observer for friction force is used. The proposed sliding mode controller with observer is evaluated in simulation, and the control design is shown to have high performance on roads with constant and varying adhesion coefficients.

In this paper, a simulator hardware and control design for an electronic parking brake (EPB) are proposed for emergency vehicle braking when the hydraulic break and anti-lock brake systems (ABS) fail to function. EPB systems are designed specifically for park braking and are usually installed on the rear wheels. However, in an emergency situation when all vehicle brake systems fail, the EPB can be utilized to stop the vehicle and track the target slip ratio as the ABS. This paper analyzed the non-linear EBP of the type of motor on caliper (MoC) based on experiments. A simulator hardware is also designed to validate the performance of the designed EPB controller in terms of braking distance and performance in tracking the target slip ratio. Through the experimental analysis, it is confirmed that a sliding mode controller can be applied on a non-linear EPB to track the target slip ratio.

본 논문에서는 실내모형실험 및 유한요소 프로그램인 CRISP을 이용하여 사질토 지반에 근입되어있는 선단지지 말뚝의 하중-침하(P-S) 관계를 규명하였다. 선단지지말뚝의 효과를 유한요소 해석에서 모사하기 위하여 몇 가지 형태의 인터페이스 요소들(slip elements)을 말뚝 주변 및 선단에 도입하였다. 비관련 소성흐름 법칙의 정도, 즉 지반강도 정수인 내부마찰각과 팽창각의 차이 정도를 고려한 Mo-Coulomb 지반 모델에 있어서, 인터페이스 요소들이 포함된 선단지지말뚝은 내부마찰각과 팽창각의 차이가 유한요소 해의 수렴에 매우 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 나타났다. 한편, 이와는 대조적으로 말뚝 주변에 적용한 인터페이스 요소 대신 Roller로 모사된 선단지지말뚝의 유한요소 해는 비관련 소성흐름 법칙의 정도에 대해서 영향을 받지 않고 수렴되는 것으로 나타났다.
