  • Patent number: 11919520
    Abstract: A wheel slip control method for a vehicle is provided, and includes estimating equivalent inertia information of a driving system based on operation information of the driving system while a vehicle travels, determining whether the slip of a drive wheel occurs from the estimated equivalent inertia information of the driving system, determining whether the drive wheel is in an uneven wheel slip state where the slip occurs only in one of a left wheel and a right wheel of the drive wheel from a left wheel speed and a right wheel speed detected by a sensor, if it is determined that the slip of the drive wheel occurs, and controlling an operation of a braking device such that a braking force is applied to the vehicle wheel in which the slip occurs, if it is determined that the vehicle wheel is in the uneven wheel slip state.

  • Patent number: 10074504
    Abstract: A liquid crystal display device that includes an array substrate, an opposite substrate and a liquid crystal display layer is described. The array substrate includes a pixel electrode and a lower alignment layer. The pixel electrode has a plurality of slit portions extending in different directions. The lower alignment layer includes a reactive mesogen (RM) diamine is formed on the pixel electrode to induce an alignment direction of the liquid crystal molecules. An upper alignment layer is formed on a common electrode of the opposite substrate. The RM is cured at surfaces of the lower and upper alignment layers in response to ultraviolet (UV) light, so that liquid crystal molecules have a pretilt angle. Therefore, the aperture ratio and the response time may be improved, and afterimages may be decreased, so that display quality may be improved.
