Abstract

The Two-fluid Model, proposed by Herman and Prigogine in 1979, is a macroscopic model for describing network operability in urban networks. Since the Two-fluid Model parameters change according to the traffic flow characteristics, it is necessary to identify the cause of flow change when analyzing the operability using the parameters. This study compared the crash risk according to rainfall using the Two-fluid Model parameters, and explained that the driving behavior affects the operability of the urban network. The results of the parameters estimation showed poor network operation under rainfall condition. The factors of drivers' crash risk perception model were calculated, and driving behavior was analyzed due to crash risk according to rainfall. In both the morning and evening, drivers tended to slow down their speeds to reduce the crash risk, because the risk on rainy days could be high when the speed was the same as on a sunny days. However, the crash risk was still higher on rainy days than sunny. In the future, it is necessary to analyze the relationship between the network operation and the crash risk in various networks and to improve both.

1979년 Herman과 Prigogine에 의해 제안된 Two-fluid Model은 도시부 네트워크의 운영성을 설명하는 거시적인 모형으로서 네트워크 내 정지차량 비율과 평균 주행속도의 관계에 기초하고 있다. 이러한 Two-fluid Model의 파라미터는 교통류 특성에 따라 변화하므로 파라미터를 통한 운영성 분석 시 교통류 상태 변화를 규명하는 단계가 수반되어야 한다. 이에 본 연구는 Two-fluid Model의 파라미터를 활용하여 강우에 따른 교통사고 위험도를 비교하였고, 이로 인한 주행 행태가 도시부 네트워크의 운영성에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다. 먼저 Two-fluid Model 파라미터 추정결과, 맑은 날 대비 비가 온 날의 네트워크 운영성이 저하된 것으로 나타났다. 이후 운전자의 교통사고 위험인지 모형 계수를 산출하고 강우 여부에 따른 교통사고 위험도와 그에 따른 주행 행태 변화를 분석하였다. 오전·오후 시간대 모두 운전자는 맑은 날과 동일한 속도를 유지하였을 때 비가 온 날의 교통사고 위험도가 높을 수 있기 때문에, 위험도를 낮추기 위해 주행속도를 감속하는 경향을 보였다. 그러나 맑은 날 보다 비가 온 날의 위험도는 여전히 높은 것으로 파악되었다. 향후에는 도시부 교통망의 거시적 운영성과 사고 위험도 간의 관계를 보다 다양한 네트워크에서 분석하고 동시에 개선할 수 있는 방안을 연구해볼 필요가 있겠다.
