The equilibrium network design problem can be formulated as a mathematical Program with variational inequality constraints. We know this problem may have may multiple local solutions due to its inherent characteristics - Nonlinear Objective function and Nonlinear, Nonconvex constraints. Hence, it is difficult to solve for a globally optimal solution. In this paper, we propose a genetic algorithm to obtain a globa1 optimum among many local optima. A Proposed a1gorithm is compared with 4 different solution algorithms for 1 small test network and 1 real-size network. The results of some computational testing are reported.

We evaluated the availability of Origin-Destination Matrix from traffic counts Using conjugate gradient method to large scale networks by applying it to the networks in 246 zones. As a result of the analysis of the consistency of the model on Nationwide Networks, the upper and lower levels in model had the systematic relationship internally. From the analysis of the estimable power or the model according to the number of traffic counting links, the error in traffic volume had the estimable power in the range of permissible error. In addition, the estimable power of estimation of an Origin-Destination Matrix was more satisfactory than that of existing methods. We conclude that conjugate gradient method cab be applied to nationwide networks if we can make sure that the algorithm of the developed model is reliable by doing various kinds of experiment.

The Purpose of this study is to develop a simulation model for large-scale network with interrupted flow as well as uninterrupted flow. The Cell Transmission(CT) theory is used to simulate traffic flow. Flow transition rules have been newly developed to simulate traffic flows at merging and diverging sections, and signalized intersections. In the model, it is assumed that dynamic OD table is exogenously given. Simulation results for toy network shows that the model can explain queue dynamics not only in signalized intersections of urban arterials, but also in merging and diverging sections of freeway. In case study, the model successfully simulated traffic flows of 145,000 vehicles on CBD network of city of Seoul with 74 traffic zones, 133 signalized intersections among 395 nodes and 1110 links.

An optimal network design method using continuous form of design variables is considered. Modified Hooke-and-Jeeves algorithm has been implemented in order to solve nonlinear progamming problem which is approximately equivalent to the real network design problem (NDP) with system. efficiency criteria(i. e. travel time and costs) and construction cost as objective function. Various forms of construction cost function, locations of initial solution, and dimension of initial step size of link improvement are taken into account to show the validity of this approach. The results obtained are quite promising in terms of the numbers of evaluations in solving NDP, and the speed of convergence. Finally, some techniques in choosing efficient intial solution, initial step size and approximation are given.

Although numerous studies have analyzed the relationship between subway travel demand (STD) and various characteristics of subway catchment area (SCA), a few studies examined the relationship between STD and the structure of pedestrian networks within each SCA. Hence, this study evaluates the structure of pedestrian networks within 79 SCAs in the city of Busan using Space syntax and investigates the relationship between STD and several characteristics of SCA including the spatial structure of pedestrian network. The analysis results show that the spatial integration of pedestrian networks within the SCAs, which represents the magnitudes of walking accessibility to subway station, is positively associated with STD among the three spatial indexes such as integration, connectivity, and intelligibility. In addition, the results show that STD significantly increases as the number of travel gathering facilities and the average floor area ratio within the SCAs increase. This study ultimately corroborates that designing the grid pedestrian network and assigning the travel gathering facilities to the compact buildings within SCAs are needed to ameliorate the spatial structure of SCA in the city of Busan as transit-oriented development system.

좌회전 제어네는 크게 좌회전을 금지하는 적극적인 제어에서 좌회전 신호와 좌회전 차선의 디자인 및 차선 설정과 같은 비교적 소극적인 제어가 있다. 기존의 좌회전에 관한 많은 연구는 대부분 후자의 소극적인 제어를 통한 제어효과를 파악하는데 주로 관심을 두었다. 좌회전금지의 효과분석 방법론에는 크게 교차로 및 링크(Link)와 네트워크(Network)의 두가지 차원의 접근 방법이 있다. 교차로 및 링크(Link) 차원의 분석은 TRANSYT 7F, PASSER IV 등과 같은 가로망에서 신호시간을 최적화하는 모형과 NETSIM, COSIM과 같이 조건에 따라 실제 차량의 행태를 모사하는 시뮬레이션 모형 등에서 좌회전 신호현시를 주거나, 주지 않음으로써 전후의 변화를 관찰, 분석에 이용할 수 있다. 그러나, 이러한 접근방법은 개별교차로에서 현시운영에 따른 효과를 분석하기에는 용이할 지 모르나, 좌회전 금지에 따라 전환된 교통량을 합리적으로 처리하는데 문제를 가지고 있다. 이에 반해 네트워크(Network) 차원의 분석은 좌회전 금지에 따른 거시적 수요변화를 파악하여, 좌회전금지에 따라 전환된 교통량을 합리적으로 수용 할 수 있으며, 교차로 및 링크(Link) 차원의 분석기법과의 결합을 통해 개별교차로에서 현시운영에 따른 효과도 어느정도 예견할 수 있을 것으로 예상되지만, 이에 관련한 여구가 전무한 형편이다. 본 연구의 목적은 네트워크(Network) 차원에서 좌회전 금지에 따른 효과 분석 모형을 정립하고, 가상 네트워크에 적용 그 유효성을 검증하여, 지역 네트워크의 개별교차로에서 좌회전 금지의 도입에 대한 의사결정의 기준을 마련하는데 있으며, 이를 위한 구체적 연구 내용은 다름과 같다. 첫째, 순간 동작 사용자 최적 통행배정모형의 구조 및 특성 파악. 둘째, 기존 가로망 표현기법의 구조 및 특성파악. 셋째, 좌회전 금지에 따른 효과 분석을 위한 순간 동적 사용자 최적 통행배정모형의 구축. 넷째, 좌회전 금지에 따른 효과 분석을 위한 가로망 표현기법의 개발. 다섯째, 가상 네트워크에서 구축된 모형을 통한 교차로에서 좌회전 금지 효과분석

The spatial structure analysis using the existing space syntax has a weakness only to apply the road factor. Hence, it is necessary to perform a new spatial structure analysis considering the regional characteristics factor as well as the road factor. The purpose of this study is to propose a modified spatial structure analysis which adopts road and regional characteristics factors using the existing space syntax and GIS and then to apply it to the spatial structure analysis of the urbanized areas in Hapdeok town. For the new analysis, the experts' survey has been conducted to derive the spatial structure factors of the area and their relative weights. Specifically, it drew the road factor as well as the regional characteristics factors such as road, district, land value, and building density. This study shows that the existing spatial structure analysis considering only the road factor does not reflect the actual spatial structure but the modified spatial structure analysis considering the road factor and the regional characteristics factors more accurately analyzes the spatial structure of Hapdeok town. Hapdeok is not an area where road networks were developed along main development axis and its centrality was changed, but an area where road networks were developed by effectiveness and equity and its centrality was changed by downtown decline. The towns like Hapdeok is more suitable for applying the modified spatial structure analysis method considering the regional characteristics factors. Further research is required for selecting characteristics factors and appropriate parameters in the modified spatial structure analysis. Further case studies await in other cities for conducting its verification.

고속도로 교통축은 고속도로와 운전자가 대체도로로 이용할 수 있는 표면가로로 구성된 가로망을 말한다. 이러한 고속도로에서의 도로망의 효율을 극대화하기 위해서 시행되고 있는 제어기법으로는 고속도로 진입램프에서의 램프미터링과 표면가로에서의 신호시간조정 등을 들 수 있다. 그러나, 이를 통합한 제어전략은 아직 고려되고 있지 못하다. 고속도로에서 사고나 극심한 혼잡으로 인해 지체가 되었을 경우 단순히 진입램프에서 램프미터링만을 실행하는 것이 아니라 부체도로로의 경로전환을 통해 고속도로교통축의 효율을 극대화할 수 있다. 이는 지능형교통체계(ITS)에서 고려하고 있는 경로안내시스템과도 결부된다. 그러므로, 고속도로 교통축에서는 진입램프에서의 램프미터링전략과 진출램프에서의 경로전환전략, 표면가로에서의 신호최적화전략을 통한 제어를 실행할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 고속도로에서의 진입램프미터링과 진출램프를 통한 경로전환, 표면가로에서의 신호시간조정을 통합한 제어모형을 구축하고, 그에 따른 통합제어알고리즘을 개발하는 것을 본 논문의 목적으로 한다. 통합제어모형은 적정 제어변수의 값을 구하기 용이하게 하기 위해 선형계획법을 적용하였으며, 시뮬레이션을 통해 통합제어알고리즘을 우수성을 검증하였다.

Finding shortest paths on time dependent networks is an important task for scheduling and routing plan and real-time navigation system in ITS. In this research, one-to-one time dependent shortest path algorithms based on link flow speeds on urban networks are proposed. For this work, first we select three general shortest path algorithms such as Graph growth algorithm with two queues, Dijkstra's algorithm with approximate buckets and Dijkstra's algorithm with double buckets. These algorithms were developed to compute shortest distance paths from one node to all nodes in a network and have proven to be fast and efficient algorithms in real networks. These algorithms are extended to compute a time dependent shortest path from an origin node to a destination node in real urban networks. Three extended algorithms are implemented on a data set from real urban networks to test and evaluate three algorithms. A data set consists of 4 urban street networks for Anaheim, CA, Baltimore, MD, Chicago, IL, and Philadelphia, PA. Based on the computational results, among the three algorithms for TDSP, the extended Dijkstra's algorithm with double buckets is recommended to solve one-to-one time dependent shortest path for urban street networks.
