The curb weight of electric trucks is more than 10% higher than that of conventional internal combustion engine trucks due to the motor and battery. For this reason, cargo box developed for small electric trucks is required weight reduction, and cargo door that can reduce weight and maintain strength are being developed. In this paper, we designed the lightweight cargo door, confirmed the stability of the door through structural analysis, and developed a cargo box door that was more than 25% lighter by applying composite materials such as Sheet Molding Compound(SMC) and Fiber Reinforced Plastic(FRP).

Ensuring the safe arrival of delivery cargo at its intended destination is of utmost importance. Truck drivers play a crucial role in guaranteeing the secure delivery of cargo without any mishaps. However, there are various factors that may lead to delayed arrival of trucks at their destination, such as late departures or prolonged loading operations. The timely departure of cargo transportation is contingent upon several variables, including the driver's experience, cargo volume, and loading time. If the transportation commencement is delayed, it may increase the risk of accidents due to an elevated operating speed. Consequently, we conducted a study to investigate the correlation between cargo loading time, cargo volume, driving experience, and the likelihood of accidents. Our findings indicate that both cargo volume and driver experience can impact the likelihood of vehicle accidents. Furthermore, all factors can have an interactive effect on the occurrence of accidents. However, extending the loading time may mitigate the impact on the likelihood of accidents.

In this study, in order to review the structural stability of a Sub-frame assembly mounted on a 5-ton dump truck with a telescopic cylinder type that can secure price competitiveness through cost reduction effect and an extended loading box that satisfies automobile safety standards, the 3D shape design technique for a main component parts is presented. In addition, structural analysis based on the finite element method is performed with the load condition applied to a safety factor 3.0 and boundary condition assigned to the lower part of the Sub-frame. By comparing and examining the maximum stress result from the structural analysis of the entire Sub-frame assembly and individual component and a yield strength of each material applied to each component, a design technique that can assure the structural stability of the Sub-frame assembly is presented.

This paper introduces a container loading problem and proposes a theoretical approach that efficiently solves it. The problem is to determine a proper weight of products loaded on a container that is delivered by third party logistics (3PL) providers. When the company pre-loads products into a container, typically one or two days in advance of its delivery date, various truck weights of 3PL providers and unpredictability of the randomness make it difficult for the company to meet the total weight regulation. Such a randomness is mainly due to physical difference of trucks, fuel level, and personalized equipment/belongings, etc. This paper provides a theoretical methodology that uses historical shipping data to deal with the randomness. The problem is formulated as a stochastic optimization where the truck randomness is reflected by a theoretical distribution. The data analytics solution of the problem is derived, which can be easily applied in practice. Experiments using practical data reveal that the suggested approach results in a significant cost reduction, compared to a simple average heuristic method. This study provides new aspects of the container loading problem and the efficient solving approach, which can be widely applied in diverse industries using 3PL providers.

Asphalt concrete(Ascon) is used to repair potholes and cracks. Special truck-mounted cargo boxes transport 200℃ asphalt concrete to repair potholes and cracks. However, long working and transportation hours to repair wide roads decrease the temperature of the asphalt concrete inside the cargo boxes. If the asphalt concrete temperature drops below 170℃, the adhesion with roads that need repair decreases. Therefore, the temperature of the asphalt concrete needs to be maintained for a long time. Conventional asphalt concrete cargo boxes are mostly burner-type models using hot air to prevent the temperature of the asphalt concrete from dropping. However, there are significant temperature differences between the asphalt concrete near and far away from the hot air, so the temperature decreases over time and leads to the disposal of large amounts of asphalt concrete. This causes waste of resources and environmental pollution. Therefore, this study proposed a heat dissipation cut-off type cargo box model to solve this problem and demonstrated its performance over conventional burner-type models through tests and analysis.

국내 선박의 해양사고 발생률은 지속적으로 증가하고 있으며, 총톤수(Gross tonnage) 10톤 미만의 소형선박에서 집중적으로 발 생하고 있다. 선박의 전복사고는 인명 및 재산 피해를 동반하기 때문에 반드시 예방되어야 하는 사고임에도 불구하고, 전복사고와 관련이 깊은 운항중인 소형선박의 내항성능 연구는 미진한 상태이며 내항성능과 관련된 국내·외 규정이 존재하지 않는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구 에서는 전복사고가 발생한 소형선박의 재결서를 조사하여 전복사고의 주요 원인이 적재상태 불량이라는 점을 파악하고, 대표 선박을 선 정하여 유체정역학적 계산 및 내항성능 해석을 수행하였다. 일반적으로 선박은 운항중 6자유도 운동을 하게 되는데 본 연구에서는 전복 사고와 관련이 깊은 횡동요(Roll)를 알아보기 위해 대표 선박의 응답진폭연산자(RAO) 및 운동응답 스펙트럼(Response Spectrum)을 계산하 고 3시간동안의 파도 정상상태(Stationary)에 대한 단기(Short Term) 통계 해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 적재상태가 불량할 때에는 선박의 횡 동요가 크게 발생하여 선박의 안정성을 크게 감소시킨다는 사실을 알 수 있었다.

In this study, according to the staking method of the fire hose in the indoor hydrant system, the number of kinks when the fire hose is deployed was measured and analyzed to examine how the staking method of the fire hose affects the kink when the hose is deployed. The fire hose staking method was classified into three types: donut-type, accordion-type, and hose hanger-type, and the walking speed and number of kinks were measured by repeating the experiment 5 times for male and female students. The results of the study are as follows. (1) Among the three types of fire hose staking methods, the donut-type staking method had an average of 92 times for male students and 86 times for female students on average. (2) The accordion-type and hose hanger-type staking methods showed similar results with an average of one or two kinks for both male and female students. (3) Regardless of the staking method, it was found that in general, male students with high walking speed had more kinking than female students with slow walking speed.

In this study, the purpose of this study was to examine the effect of twisting in the preparation of waterproofing in the process of unfolded donut-type staking method fire hoses in indoor hydrant system. The central pull-out method caused more twisting than the rolling method, and there was no significant difference in the number of twists according to the pull-out method in the case of male and female students. It was found that the time it took to untwist and prepare waterproofing was much shorter for male students. The angle valve and hose are connected, and the time to untwist and prepare for waterproofing after withdrawing the fire hose with the hose and nozzle connected was shorter than the unconnected state. In the rolling method, when a hose connected with two 15 m fire hoses was used and the angle valve-hose was connected, but the hose-nozzle was not connected, the least kinking occurred. The time to untwist and prepare for waterproofing was also the shortest. As a result, in the withdrawal method of the donut-type loaded fire hose in the indoor hydrant system, it is a rolling method rather than a central withdrawal method. With the angle valve and hose connected, unfold the fire hose with the hose and nozzle connected, if a large number of people unwind the twisted hose, the time to prepare for waterproofing can be shortened.

Non-face-to-face online education which suddenly began with COVID-19, was an opportunity to expand to university education sites. This study presents online classes based on the Tandem learning method as examples and examines the class operation, learning content, and learner satisfaction according to the actual type of flip learning classes and real-time video classes. By converting Tandem classes operated by B University in Busan into online classes, the existing e-Tandem classes were expanded using flip learning and ZOOM. The first Flip learning class allows self-directed learning, and the free form of learning through pre-learning becomes an advantage of the online class type. However, while professors participate in the small conference room and feedback, there is a need to be supplemented with the ability to feedback directly to other teams. Furthermore, as a result of the learner satisfaction survey, there were complaints about prior learning and the amount of tasks, so studies on specific tasks and the content and methods of prior learning are also needed. The second real-time video class allows interaction between professors and learners, learners and learners. The biggest feature of this class type is that it can solve the absence of communication, which was a disadvantage of non-face-to-face classes. However, the ability of a professor is needed to conduct a real-time video class like this. Unlike learners who are familiar with digital technology, only when they understand and learn various online content and functions will their online classes become as natural as face-to-face classes.

제주도는 섬이라는 지리적 특성 때문에 해운항만산업이 매우 중요하다. 그러인프라 시설, 항만배후단지와 같은 항만 부대 산업, 해운산업과 관련된 법과 정책에 대한 개선이 필요하다. 특히 2014년 세월호 사고 이후 비표준 철재상자, 화물자동차 등의 적재와 고박을 포함하는 화물고박기준에 대한 수용가능성과 적용 여부 등과 관련하여 선박안전법제와 화물취급실무 간의 괴리로 다양한 문제가 대두되었다. 그 이유는 선박운항자 등이 화물적재와 고박의 안전 확보에 대한 행위에 대하여 정부가 신뢰하지 못함에 기인한다. 따라서 이 연구는 선박운항의 현실에 적합하면서도 미래지향적인 다양한 적재와 고박 방법을 반영한 화물적재고박기준에 관한 개정안을 제시하였다. 또한 선사 및 화주들이 화물 적재와 고박의 안전에 대한 일차적인 책임자임을 자각함으로써 화물적재와 고박 안전에 관한 기준을 철저히 준수하여야 한다는 점을 지적하였다.

This study experimentally and analytically examines the seismic vulnerability of steel rack storage frames subjected to Korea earthquakes (2016 Gyeongju earthquake and 2017 Pohang earthquake). To achieve this aim, this study selects a three-story, one-bay steel rack frame with a typical configuration of rack frame in Korea. Firstly, the local behavior for frame components is examined by performing monotonic and/or cyclic load tests and the global response and dynamic characteristics of the subject rack frame are investigated by conducting a shaking table test. The analytical model of the rack frame is then created based on the experimental results and is used to perform nonlinear time history analyses with recorded Korea earthquakes. The seismic demand of the rack frame is considerably affected by the spectral acceleration response, instead of peak ground accelerations (peak floor accelerations). Moreover, the collapse fragility curve of the rack frame is developed using incremental dynamic analyses for the Gyeongju and Pohang earthquakes. Fragility results indicate that the ground motion characteristics of these earthquakes do not significantly affect the frame vulnerability at the collapse state.
