Driving Resistance is calculated for emission test defines total vehicle resistance forces. Resistance factors of running vehicle are sum of rolling resistance, transmission loss and aerodynamic drag force. To measure this resistance, Coastdown test is conventional method and it needs a long level driving road. In this study coastdown test is executed on short driving road. And also each resistance factors are calculated. This test is based on S(Distance)-Time Method. From the result, it is shown that this method is reliable and can be used for initial vehicle test.
산업화와 도시화의 급속한 발전으로 교통량이 증가하면서, 도로 비산먼지와 같은 대기 오염 문제가 심각해지고 있다. 특히, 도로에 서 발생하는 미세먼지의 주요 원인인 비배기가스의 일환인 도로 비산먼지(Road suspended dust)는 대기 질을 저하시킬 뿐만 아니라, 인 체 건강에도 여러 가지 해로운 영향을 미친다. 이에 비산먼지 예측 모형식을 개발하기 위해 도심부 도로 내 비산먼지 측정차량을 운 영하고 있으나, 측정 시 주변 환경에 영향을 많이 미치기 때문에 보다 신뢰성 있는 결과를 위해서는 앞차에서 발생하는 배기가스 영 향권을 최소화하여 노면-타이어에서 발생하는 순수 비산먼지 농도를 측정할 필요가 있다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 차량의 주행 패턴 에 따라 도로 비산먼지 농도가 어떻게 변화하는지를 분석하고, 거리별 배기가스의 영향력을 평가하고자 하였다. 먼저, 이동식 비산먼지 측정차량을 활용하여 측정차량을 기준으로 차량 간의 거리(10m, 20m, 50m)와 도심부에서 발생할 수 있는 대표 적인 주행행태(전방 2대 직진, 전방 2대 평행, 전방 3대 직진)에 따른 도로 비산먼지 농도의 변화를 측정하였다. 실험 결과, 차량 간 거리가 가까운 10m일 때 비산먼지 농도가 가장 높았으며, 이 때의 농도는 20m 또는 50m 거리에서 측정된 농도보다 유의미하게 증가 하는 경향을 보였다. 특히, 20m 거리에서는 비산먼지 농도가 낮아지는 경향이 뚜렷하였으며, 이는 차량의 배기가스가 도로에서 발생하 는 비산먼지에 미치는 영향이 줄어드는 것을 나타낸다. 또한 전방에 3대의 차량이 직진으로 주행할 경우 앞차량에 의해 비산된 먼지 가 계속 공기중으로 비산되어 측정차량에서는 낮게 나타나는 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 결과는 도시 내에서 비산먼지에 기반한 안전 거리를 설정하는 데 중요한 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 측정차량 운영 시 앞차에서 발생하는 배기가스의 영향을 최소화하여 비산 먼지 농도만을 측정할 수 있는 자료로 활용될 수 있다. 본 연구는 배기가스가 도로 비산먼지 농도에 미치는 영향을 실증적으로 분석함으로써, 대기질 개선을 위한 보다 효과적인 정책 수립 에 기여할 것으로 기대된다. 궁극적으로, 도심부 도로 내 도로 비산먼지에 대한 영향을 고려할 때 배기가스에 따른 농도 변화를 이해 함으로써, 향후 도시 환경에서의 지속 가능한 교통 관리와 대기질 개선 전략을 개발하는 데 중요한 기초 자료가 될 것으로 판단된다.
Abstract Purpose : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the differences and reliability of various methods for measuring Interpupillary Distance. Methods : The participants were 50 Cambodian adults (28.08±3.85 years old) without ocular disease and abnormal binocular vision. Far/near IPD was measured using Corneal reflection pupillometer, PD ruller and spotting, and calculated formula for fixation distance. Using each method, the pupil distance of both eyes was measured three times, respectively, and the average value was recorded. Results : The average value of the corneal reflection pupilometer in the distance was 63.08±3.42 mm, the average value of PD calculated formula was 62.97±3.41 mm, the average value of the PD ruler was 63.72±3.17 mm, and the average value of the spotting method was 63.89±3.15 mm. The average value of the corneal reflection pupilometer in the near was 59.85±3.23 mm, the average value of the calculated formula for fixation distance was 59.95±3.23 mm, the average value of PD ruler was 59.72±3.29 mm, and the average value spotting method was 59.47±3.23 mm. Comparison between various methods in the distance and near showed statistically significant differences (p<0.001). Conclusion : In the comparative analysis between each method, the corneal reflection pupillometer is considered to be the most accurate method, but since there is no significant difference from the average value of the Spotting method, the PD Ruler Viktorin method, and the calculated formula for fixation distance, whichever method is used, it is clinically acceptable. Therefore it is believed that each method is compatible with each other. Key words : Corneal reflection pupillometer, PD meter, PD ruler, Spotting
The purpose of this study was to measure intra-rater and inter-rater reliability and range of motion for measurement of passive shoulder internal rotation range of motion and to compare anterior glide distance of humeral head in three methods. Fifty healthy subjects and fifty patients with shoulder musculoskeletal pain were recruited for this study. The subjects' passive shoulder internal rotation range of motion was measured by visual estimation, manual stabilization, and pressure biofeedback unit methods. In two trials, measurements were performed on each subject by two examiners. Intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC(3,1)) was used to determine the reliability of each measurement. The intra-rater reliability of the three methods was excellent (ICC=.77~.93) in both groups. The inter-rater reliability of the visual estimation method was poor (ICC=.20, .29), the manual scapular stabilization method was poor and fair (ICC=.09, .50), and the pressure biofeedback unit method was excellent (ICC .86, .75) in the experimental and control groups. In the experimental group, the difference of examined range of motion by each examiner was significant in the visual estimation method and manual scapular stabilization method, but there was an insignificant difference between the groups is the pressure biofeedback unit method. This result suggests that the intra-rater and inter-rater reliability of a pressure biofeedback unit was better than the other methods. The difference in distance of the anterior glide of humeral head was insignificant among all the methods. The pressure biofeedback unit method was the most reliable method, so it is proposed to be a new and reliable method to measure internal rotation range of motion.
This paper introduces a novel approach that can provide the three dimensional information about the movement of a spreader by using two CCD cameras and a laser distance measuring unit in order to derive ALS (Automatic Landing System) in the crane used at a harbor. So far a kind of 2D Laser scanner sensor or laser distance measuring units are used as comer detectors for the geometrical matching between the spreader and a container. Such systems provide only two dimensional information which is not enough for an accurate and fast ALS. In addition to this deficiency in performance, the price of the system is too high to adapt to the ALS. Therefore, to overcome these defects, we proposed a novel method to acquire the three dimensional spreader information using two CCD cameras and a laser distance measuring unit. To show the efficiency of proposed method, real experiments are performed to show the improvement of accuracy in distance measurement by fusing the sensory information of the CCD cameras and a laser distance measuring unit.
