  • Patent number: 9174535
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for controlling a speed in an excess speed enforcement section are provided. The method includes determining one of a target speed, a lower limit speed, and a speed limit as a final target speed using a relationship between a target speed, a lower limit speed, and a speed limit. A required acceleration is calculated based on the final target speed and the vehicle speed and the vehicle speed is adjusted using the required acceleration.

  • Publication number: 20140163837
    Abstract: The speed of a vehicle is automatically controlled in a speed bump area located in the vicinity of a speed bump. Information about a speed bump is received from a navigation device, and a distance between the vehicle and the speed bump is calculated. If the calculated is less than a preset reference distance, it is determined that the vehicle is entering or has entered an area of the speed bump. Upon determining that the vehicle is in the speed bump area, a speed difference between a safe speed bump crossing speed and a current speed of the vehicle is computed, a required acceleration value is calculated based on the calculated distance to the speed bump and the speed difference, and the speed of the vehicle is controlled so that the vehicle decelerates or is accelerates in accordance with the required acceleration value.

  • Publication number: 20090155412
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method of preparing trans fat-free oils and fats by an enzymatic interesterification (EI), and trans fat-free oils and fats prepared by the method. Specifically, the method comprises the steps of: 1) mixing fully hydrogenated fat derived from vegetable oil with RBD olive oil; 2) adding lipase to the mixed oil and reacting the mixed oil with lipase at 65 to 80° C. for 1 to 4 hours (1st reaction step); and 3) reacting the mixed oil from step 2) with the lipase at 40 to 60° C. for 44 to 47 hours (2nd reaction step).
