Abstract:

In recent years, three optimal methods, size, shape and topological optimization, have been widely applied to the automotive component design and significant success have been achieved. However, most of the optimizations are limited to deal with the individual component of the truck. Because there exists the complex coupling relations between components under the assembly environment of the truck, it is difficult to deal with the component design by using the above three optimal method and it is necessary to develop a more effective method for solving the complex optimal problem under the assembly environment of full truck. To this end, the paper introduces the modal stiffness concept and develops the modal stiffness contributions of components to full truck which can identify which components are the key ones for controlling the modal frequencies. The present method is applied to a full truck analysis. The results obtained show that the proposed method is effective and the computation process is straightforward. The results can be directly used to improve the component design of full truck as a valuable guide.

Abstract:

Expedition truck is a vehicle that serves to transfer goods from one place to another. Previously maintenance policy was periodic, depending on the run distance and Run To Failure, maintain the trucks after the occurrence of component damage then system failure. Analysis in maintenance management based on system and critical components do optimize truck performance by using RCM (Reliability Centered Management) method. There are 5 systems in a truck: electrical system, power steering system, cooling machine system, coupling system, and brake system. Interaction and function of the components from each system are analyzed, evaluated the failure mode (FMEA method), and categorized the level of critical damage and adjusted the maintenance time (LTA method). The results of the RCM method for 16 component functions from the 5 systems are 5 component functions with Time Directed (TD), 6 Condition Directed (CD), 3 Failure Finding (FF), and 2 component functions by Run To Failure (RTF).

Abstract:

A microscopic simulation model was developed to capture the traffic safety benefits of using intelligent transportation system (ITS) technologies, including weigh-in-motion scales with variable message signs, at truck inspection facilities. The development of the simulation model was motivated by prevalent safety concerns at congested truck inspection facilities nationwide. Three primary safety components (roadway, driver, and vehicle) were considered in the model. The roadway component focuses on the varying size of truck queues at inspection facilities and safety implications. The driver component captures key human factor elements and their variability, including distributions for perception-reaction time, speed, gap acceptance, headway, and braking characteristics. The vehicular component incorporates the size distribution of vehicles (trucks and nontrucks), proportion of trucks with defective braking systems, and their safety implications with respect to stopping distance. The primary objective for the model is to depict variations in traffic pattern for baseline (pre-ITS) and post-ITS situations. Measures of effectiveness used for evaluating traffic benefits of using ITS technologies include percent reduction in sudden deceleration of vehicles resulting from shock wave phenomena and percent reduction in duration of truck-queue overflow resulting from a high traffic intensity. Results from simulation runs support the hypothesis that the use of ITS technologies at truck inspection facilities significantly reduces the frequency of experiencing the high-risk traffic phenomena (e.g., hard braking and truck-queue overflow). The postulation is made that the reduction in the frequency of high-risk phenomena will translate into a decrease in the likelihood of experiencing crash-related incidents in the vicinity of truck inspection facilities.

Abstract:

PT TPS Surabaya is a company engaged in terminal handling, especially containers. In carrying out operational activities to transport containers from the dock to the company's container yard, it uses eighty head truck fleets. Operational activities for transporting containers are carried out 24 hours a day so that maintenance is needed. Therefore, the operational head trucks do not experience sudden damage and disrupt operations. The malfunction of the device can occur due to damage to the components in the device. The design of the component replacement and the inspection intervals on the components is needed to avoid sudden component damage. Calculation of interval replacement and component checking is done by calculating the damage distribution followed by searching for index of fit and goodness of fit using Minitab software. The result showed that the inspection time interval of 1091 hours for the air system and 398.45 hours for the transmission system components. Besides, the replacement time interval for the component of the air system is 62 hours and the transmission system is 124 hours after inspection.

Abstract:

Air is the successor to the Caterpillar 777D Highway Truck Air System. Air is used to supply the braking system on the Caterpillar 777D Highway Truck which is then collaborated with a hydraulic system for the technical braking process. For this reason, the authors analyze the components of the 777D Caterpillar Highway Truck Air System and what damage often occurs and how to repair it. In this case the object examined is the water system component of the Caterpillar 777D Highway Truck. The method used in this research is field observation, literature study, conducting, inspection with several units that improve the schedule and scheduled repairs. According to the appropriate literature, component damage that occurs in air systems is damage to the system and wear and tear on components. The study was conducted by conducting a visual inspection and measurement, then an analysis of the assessment of the appropriate data literature was carried out. The results found damage to the maintenance component that is not really a component relay valve and air dryer on the air filling system.

Abstract:

In this study, we consider fuel cell-powered electric trucks (FCETs) as an alternative to conventional medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. FCETs use a battery combined with onboard hydrogen storage for energy storage. The additional battery provides regenerative braking and better fuel economy, but it will also increase the initial cost of the vehicle. Heavier reliance on stored hydrogen might be cheaper initially, but operational costs will be higher because hydrogen is more expensive than electricity. Achieving the right tradeoff between these power and energy choices is necessary to reduce the ownership cost of the vehicle. This paper develops an optimum component sizing algorithm for FCETs. The truck vehicle model was developed in Autonomie, a platform for modelling vehicle energy consumption and performance. The algorithm optimizes component sizes to minimize overall ownership cost, while ensuring that the FCET matches or exceeds the performance and cargo capacity of a conventional vehicle. Class 4 delivery truck and class 8 linehaul trucks are shown as examples. We estimate the ownership cost for various hydrogen costs, powertrain components, ownership periods, and annual vehicle miles travelled.

Abstract:

This research examines how trucking companies can develop effective advertising media and messages for reaching and recruiting qualified long distance long distance truck drivers. Long distance truck driver candidates seem most interested in competitive pay, paid vacation, a weekly payment schedule (along with direct deposit), assigned equipment, 24/7 dispatch, a large volume of hub group freight, and flexible home time. To reach this audience and its needs, we suggest advertisements emphasizing these benefits be placed on the Internet and social media sites, as well as in selected professional magazines frequented by truck drivers searching for jobs.

Abstract:

The paper deals with the development of load model for the Ontario Highway Bridge Design Code. Three components of dead load are considered: weight of factory-made elements, weight of cast-in-place concrete, and bituminous surface (asphalt). The live load model is based on the truck survey data. The maximum live load moments and shears are calculated for one-lane and two-lane bridges. For spans up to about 40 m, one truck per lane governs; for longer spans, two trucks following behind the other provide the largest live load effect. For two lanes, two fully correlated trucks govern. The dynamic load is modeled on the basis of simulations. The results of calculations indicate that dynamic load depends not only on the span but also on road surface roughness and vehicle dynamics. Load combination including dead load, live load, dynamic load, wind, and earthquake is modeled using Turkstra's rule. The maximum effect is determined as a sum of the extreme value of one load component plus the average values of other simultaneous load components. The developed load models can be used in the calculation of load and resistance factors for the design and evaluation code. Key words: bridge, dead load, live load, dynamic load, load combinations.

Abstract:

Boom is one of key components of concrete pump trucks which can be looked as a projecting beam when unfolded at pumping mode. Under different concrete pumping modes, vibration of boom is serious for the hydraulic cylinder switching over shock, which can lead to the early damage of boom structure. In the finite element analysis software, boom of 37 meters concrete pump truck is simulated for its modal. Natural frequencies and corresponding modes are got and analyzed. To reduce vibration of concrete pump trucks, advices are presented by finite element modal analysis.

Abstract:

In the truck industry, it is crustal to test components against fatigue to make sure that the trucks stand up to the high demands on durability. Today’s testing methods have some disadvantages; it is quite a time-consuming process, but more important, similar tested components cannot easily be compared due to the load spread the components are subjected to. It is therefore desirable to test the components in a standardized way. One way to do this is to use a synthetic signal which is a large number of unique truck measurements combined. The synthetic signal only contains information of the frame’s vibration and not any components. The purpose of this project was to create a model that uses the synthetic signal to describe the motion of components. Two approaches were used, the first was to base the model on previous measurements, the second one was to base the model on analytical equations. These models were experimentally tested in a 4 channel shake rig, and a silencer was the component chosen to be tested. For the model based on measurements, the load was shown to have a large spread which was hard to control due to the spread in the measurements. The second model was easier to control where the damping factor can be chosen and varied. A promising model was the analytical model using 10% damping applied to the synthetic signal, it covers most measurements without overestimate the load of the component. However, the model was only developed for the silencer acceleration in the z-direction, and it is recommended to develop it for the x-direction as well. The method used in this project could also be used to develop models for other components.
Inom lastbilsindustrin är det viktigt att prova komponenter mot utmattning för att säkerställa att produkterna håller de höga krav som ställs på tillförlitlighet. Dagens provmetoder har några svagheter, dels är det en tidsödande process. En ännu viktigare svaghet är dock att liknande komponenter som provats kan inte på ett enkelt sätt jämföras med varandra, eftersom belastningen på en komponent kan skilja sig rejält beroende på vilken fordonskonfiguration som väljs att studera. Det är därför önskvärt att prova komponenterna på ett standardiserat sätt. Detta kan göras genom att använda den syntetiska signalen, som är en kombination av ett antal unika lastbilsmätningar. Men den syntetiska signalen innehåller bara information om ramens vibrationer och inte komponenten. Syftet med det här projektet är att ta fram en modell som använder den syntetiska signalen för att beskriva en komponentens rörelse. Två angreppssätt användes, det första var att basera modellen på tidigare mätningar, det andra var att basera modellen på analytiska ekvationer. Dessa modeller var experimentellt provade i en skakrigg med fyra kanaler, och en ljuddämpare blev det valda testobjektet. Modellen baserad på mätningar resulterade i en stor spridning av last, som var svårkontrollerad till följd av spridningen från mätningarna. Modellen baserad på de analytiska ekvationerna var däremot lättare att kontrollera där dämpningen kunde väljas och varieras. En lovande modell verkar vara att använda modellen med 10% dämpning på den syntetiska signalen, den täcker in dem flesta mätningarna utan att överskatta komponentbelastningen. Modellen är dock bara utvecklad för komponentens acceleration i z-riktning och det är rekommenderat att utveckla en liknande modell för x-riktningen också. Metoden kan även användas för andra utveckla modeller för andra komponenter än ljuddämparen.

Abstract:

During the last 10 years, low pressure carburizing and high pressure gas quenching has become more popular since it is a “new” process and researchers reports that the distortion characteristics gained from these processes is improved in relation to conventional processes. The aim of this work was to investigate the distortions gained from three different heat treatment processes on main shaft gears and crown wheels. Experiments with atmospheric carburization with oil quenching and low pressure carburization with nitrogen gas quenching or oil quenching were made and distortion characteristics gained from these processes were then measured and compared. It was found that components treaded in the relatively new LPC-HPGQ process are similar and often even better than the conventional method. The larger main shaft gear improves the most with newer method but instead gets a lower core hardness and systematic diametrical shrinkage. Some measurements on the crown wheel were also improved but others were affected negatively.

Abstract:

This thesis evaluates truck route choice set generation algorithms and derives guidance on using the algorithms for effective generation of choice sets for modeling truck route choice. Specifically, route choice sets generated from a breadth first search link elimination (BFS-LE) algorithm are evaluated against observed truck routes derived from large streams of GPS traces of a sizeable truck fleet in the Tampa Bay region of Florida. A systematic evaluation approach is presented to arrive at an appropriate combination of spatial aggregation and minimum number of trips to be observed between each origin-destination (OD) location for evaluating algorithm-generated choice sets. The evaluation is based on both the ability to generate relevant routes that are typically considered by the travelers and the generation of irrelevant (or extraneous) routes that are seldom chosen. Based on this evaluation, the thesis offers guidance on effectively using the BFS-LE approach to maximize the generation of relevant routes. It is found that carefully chosen spatial aggregation can reduce the need to generate large number of routes for each trip. Further, estimation of route choice models and their subsequent application on validation datasets revealed that the benefits of spatial aggregation might be harnessed better if irrelevant routes are eliminated from the choice sets. Lastly, a comparison of route attributes of the relevant and irrelevant routes shed light on presence of systematic differences in route characteristics of the relevant and irrelevant routes.

Abstract:

The aim of this thesis is to investigate a selected set of fatigue life calculation methods and evaluate if they are suitable for fatigue life estimation of truck components at Scania. Failure due to fatigue can be cause by road induced vibrations, which is an inevitable phenomenon trucks are exposed to. By estimating when and where these components will fail, they can be designed to reduce the amount of failure per vehicle. Three types of fatigue life calculation methods, namely equivalent stress methods, critical plane methods and spectral methods, have been evaluated. These are methods for calculating fatigue life in both the time domain and the frequency domain. The chosen calculation methods have been evaluated based on their sensitivity to input parameters, their accuracy on predicting fatigue life and their ability to find the critical areas where the components are most likely to fail. The methods have also been compared to a method already implemented at Scania. To evaluate the methods, two different components were used. The first component was designed to give a multiaxial stress state and the other was a real truck component where fatigue data had been collected from a shake rig test at Scania. It was found that all investigated methods were successful in finding critical areas where failure will occur. However, the resulting estimated fatigue life had a very low accuracy. To draw any conclusions about the accuracy of the fatigue life estimations, a model that better reflects the dynamics of the real truck component is needed. Therefore, the conclusion is that the chosen methods can be used for finding critical areas in a component but not to determine the absolute time to failure for the model used. However, the method already implemented at Scania was equally successful in finding the critical areas and it has a much shorter computational time than the methods in the time domain. Since it is already implemented and used, the Scania method is recommended for the purpose of finding the critical areas of a component. A sensitivity study was conducted in order to investigate the influence of a variation of material parameters on the fatigue life calculated with the different methods. This study showed that the SN-curve parameters are important for the resulting fatigue life of methods that consider the endurance limit, and, therefore, that the choice of SN-curve is important. Since the road induced vibrations in this study caused load signals where the majority of the cycles were found below the endurance limit, methods that account for the endurance limit have to be used for calculations on components experiencing similar conditions. Furthermore, it was found that the resulting stress signal from the FE-analysis using input data from the shake rig test was non-Gaussian, this makes the results from all the chosen frequency domain methods invalid. To use these methods, they need to be extended to consider non-Gaussian signals.
Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka ett antal utvalda metoder för utmattningsberäkning och utvärdera om dessa är lämpliga för att uppskatta livslängden på lastbilskomponenter hos Scania. Haveri på grund av utmattning kan orsakas av vibrationer från vägen, ett fenomen som påverkar komponenter på lastbilar. Genom att uppskatta när och var dessa komponenter går sönder kan de konstrueras för att minska antalet haverier. Olika typer av metoder för utmattningsberäkning i både tidsdomänen och frekvensdomänen har utvärderats. Dessa inkluderade ekvivalenta spännings-metoder, kritiska plan-metoder samt spektrala metoder. Metoderna har utvärderats med avseende på deras känslighet för variation i materialparametrar, hur den beräknade livslängden skiljer sig mot verkliga tester och hur bra de är på att hitta de kritiska områdena på en lastbilskomponent. Detta har även jämförts mot en beräkningsmetod som redan används på Scania. Två olika komponenter användes för att utvärdera metoderna. En av komponenterna var designad för att ge ett multiaxiellt spänningstillstånd och en var en riktig lastbilskomponent med data uppmätt från ett skaktest på Scania. Alla studerade metoder fann de kritiska områdena där utmattningsbrott riskerar att uppstå. Däremot visade det sig att beräkningsmetoderna inte lyckades estimera livslängder som låg i närheten av de som uppmättes under testet i skakriggen. En mer verklighetsnära modell vilken bättre motsvarar de dynamiska egenskaperna av systemet behövs för att kunna dra en slutsats om modellernas träffsäkerhet gällande estimeringen av livslängden. För ändamålet att hitta kritiska områden rekommenderas metoden som redan används hos Scania, eftersom denna var lika framgångsrik att hitta dessa, men gjorde det på en avsevärt kortare tid. Därutöver identifierades att spänningssignalen från FE-analysen, där indata från skakriggen användes, inte var gaussisk. Detta innebär att signalen inte uppfyller kraven för de spektrala metoderna och därmed att resultaten från beräkningarna på lastbilskomponenten inte går att använda för att dra några slutsatser. Känslighetsanalysen visade att de metoder som tar hänsyn till utmattningsgränsen är känsliga för ändringar i SN-parametrar. Detta beror på att många cykler, för det studerade lastfallet, låg nära utmattningsgränsen och att antalet cykler som ingick i beräkningarna därför påverkades stort av SN-parametrarna. Eftersom de vibrationer som uppstår då lastbilar framförs på vägar kan ge upphov till många cykler med amplituder nära utmattningsgränsen bör endast metoder som kan ta hänsyn till utmattningsgränsen användas vid dessa fall.

Abstract:

This project has been sponsored by QinetiQ Limited (QinetiQ); whose aim it is to model the dynamics of a prototype high-speed military tracked vehicle. Specifically their objective is to describe the mechanism by which force inputs are transmitted from the ground to the vehicle’s hull. Many track running gear components are steel and can be modelled as simple lumped masses or as linear springs without internal damping. These present no difficulty to the modeller. However tracked vehicle running gear also has nonlinear components that require more detailed descriptions. Models for two rubber components, the road wheel tyre and track link bush, and a model for the suspensions rotary damper, are developed here. These three components all have highly nonlinear dynamic responses. Rubber component nonlinearities are caused by the materials nonlinear elastic and viscoelastic characteristics. Stiffness is amplitude dependent and the material exhibits a significant amount of internal damping, which is predominantly Coulombic in nature but also relaxes overtime. In this work, a novel method for measuring the elastic and viscoelastic response of Carbon Black Filled Natural Rubber components has been devised and a ‘general purpose’ mathematical model developed that describes the materials response and is suited to use in multibody dynamic analysis software. The vehicle’s suspension rotary damper model describes three viscous flow regimes (laminar, turbulent and pressure relief), as a continuous curved response that relates angular velocity to damping torque. Hysteresis due to the compression of entrapped gas, compliance of the dampers structure and compression of damper oil is described by a single non-parametric equation. Friction is considered negligible and is omitted from the model. All components are modelled using MSC.ADAMS TM multibody dynamic analysis software. The models are shown to be easily implemented and computationally robust. QinetiQ’s requirement for ‘practical’ track running gear component models has been met.

Abstract:

The article analyzes a series of materials by Aleksander Janta-Polczynski «Into the USSR» from Soviet Russia during the in 1932, published on «Wiadomości Literackiе». The purpose of this article is explain the uniqueness of the reporter’s style and personality. We want to emphasize the role of Janta-Polczynski as the pioneer of reportage journalism. He was the first who worked professionally in this position in the full sense of this word. Analyzed the cycle of Alexander Janta-Polczynski from Russia, we can emphasize the scale of the reporter’s trip: in 1932 the journalist made the largest journalistic trip to the USSR. Janta visited the Eastern republics, which differed from the popular Moscow and Leningrad. Also, he saw the largest construction in the USSR at this time – which it bragged about russian newspapers – Magnitogorsk and Dneprostroy. For a better understanding are given the visual examples from reportorial texts. It should be noted that for Janta the main task of the reporter is to show what is seen and recorded: only facts and personal experience in communication. This cycle can safely be called a journey and social expedition. The main task for Janta the scene where the reportage takes place is to find proper characters and convince them of the importance of their story. These are the materials of a reporter – an eyewitness, not a researcher, a report from the scene, which pushes the reader to an independent conclusion. We explore that all the Janta-Polczynski texts are inextricably linked by looking into the «middle» of the process: the diversity of what is seen allows the journalist to look for differences and similarities, compare, look at the fundamental components, track changes and distinguish them. Special attention was paid to a low-angle shot in his materials. He describes how Soviet society lives, how factories work, how the system of educating a Soviet person, goes to the movies and exhibitions, communicates with ordinary citizens. Undoubtedly, all this is successfully complemented by the factual detail and uniqueness of the author’s style.

Wright, Kirsten. Collecting Plant Phenology Data In Imperiled Oregon White Oak Ecosystems: Analysis and Recommendations for Metro. Portland State University, March 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.15760/mem.64.

Full text

Abstract:

Highly imperiled Oregon white oak ecosystems are a regional conservation priority of numerous organizations, including Oregon Metro, a regional government serving over one million people in the Portland area. Previously dominant systems in the Pacific Northwest, upland prairie and oak woodlands are now experiencing significant threat, with only 2% remaining in the Willamette Valley in small fragments (Hulse et al. 2002). These fragments are of high conservation value because of the rich biodiversity they support, including rare and endemic species, such as Delphinium leucophaeum (Oregon Department of Agriculture, 2020). Since 2010, Metro scientists and volunteers have collected phenology data on approximately 140 species of forbs and graminoids in regional oak prairie and woodlands. Phenology is the study of life-stage events in plants and animals, such as budbreak and senescence in flowering plants, and widely acknowledged as a sensitive indicator of environmental change (Parmesan 2007). Indeed, shifts in plant phenology have been observed over the last few decades as a result of climate change (Parmesan 2006). In oak systems, these changes have profound implications for plant community composition and diversity, as well as trophic interactions and general ecosystem function (Willis 2008). While the original intent of Metro’s phenology data-collection was to track long-term phenology trends, limitations in data collection methods have made such analysis difficult. Rather, these data are currently used to inform seasonal management decisions on Metro properties, such as when to collect seed for propagation and when to spray herbicide to control invasive species. Metro is now interested in fine-tuning their data-collection methods to better capture long-term phenology trends to guide future conservation strategies. Addressing the regional and global conservation issues of our time will require unprecedented collaboration. Phenology data collected on Metro properties is not only an important asset for Metro’s conservation plan, but holds potential to support broader research on a larger scale. As a leader in urban conservation, Metro is poised to make a meaningful scientific contribution by sharing phenology data with regional and national organizations. Data-sharing will benefit the common goal of conservation and create avenues for collaboration with other scientists and conservation practitioners (Rosemartin 2013). In order to support Metro’s ongoing conservation efforts in Oregon white oak systems, I have implemented a three-part master’s project. Part one of the project examines Metro’s previously collected phenology data, providing descriptive statistics and assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the methods by which the data were collected. Part two makes recommendations for improving future phenology data-collection methods, and includes recommendations for datasharing with regional and national organizations. Part three is a collection of scientific vouchers documenting key plant species in varying phases of phenology for Metro’s teaching herbarium. The purpose of these vouchers is to provide a visual tool for Metro staff and volunteers who rely on plant identification to carry out aspects of their job in plant conservation. Each component of this project addresses specific aspects of Metro’s conservation program, from day-to-day management concerns to long-term scientific inquiry.
