A dynamic traffic assignment (DTA) has recently been implemented in many practical projects. The core of dynamic model is the inclusion of time scale. If excluding the time dimension from a DTA model, the framework of a DTA model is similar to that of static model. Similar to static model, with given exogenous travel demand, a DTA model loads vehicles on the network and finds an optimal solution satisfying a pre-defined route choice rule. In most DTA models, the departure pattern of given travel demand is predefined and assumed as a fixed pattern, although the departure pattern of driver is changeable depending on a network traffic condition. Especially, for morning peak commute where most drivers have their preferred arrival time, the departure time, therefore, should be modeled as an endogenous variable. In this paper, the authors point out some shortcomings of current DTA model and propose an alternative approach which could overcome the shortcomings of current DTA model. The authors substitute a traditional definition for time-dependent OD table by a new definition in which the time-dependent OD table is defined as arrival time-based one. In addition, the authors develop a new DTA model which is capable of finding an equilibrium departure pattern without the use of schedule delay functions. Three types of objective function for a new DTA framework are proposed, and the solution algorithms for the three objective functions are also explained.

Understanding accurate traffic performance is crucial for ensuring efficient highway operation and providing a sustainable mobility environment. On the other hand, an immediate and precise estimation of highway traffic performance faces challenges because of infrastructure and technological constraints, data processing complexities, and limitations in using integrated big data. This paper introduces a framework for estimating traffic performance by analyzing real-time data sourced from toll collection systems and dedicated short-range communications used on highways. In particular, this study addresses the data errors arising from segmented information in data, influencing the individual travel trajectories of vehicles and establishing a more reliable Origin-Destination (OD) framework. The study revealed the necessity of trip linkage for accurate estimations when consecutive segments of individual vehicle travel within the OD occur within a 20-minute window. By linking these trip ODs, the daily average highway traffic performance for South Korea was estimated to be248,624 thousand vehicle kilometers per day. This value shows an increase of approximately 458 thousand vehicle kilometers per day compared to the 248,166 thousand vehicle kilometers per day reported in the highway operations manual. This outcome highlights the potential for supplementing previously omitted traffic performance data through the methodology proposed in this study.

VDF(volume-delay function) is one of the most important factor to improve the reliability of traffic demand estimation because it is for estimation of link travel time based on the traffic volume variation. Because VDF of link except for freeway is applied as the parameter of BPR(bureau of public road) of U.S., it causes to deteriorate the accuracy of traffic demand estimation. The purpose of this paper is to establish new parameter of VDF based on the real-surveyed traffic data in order to improve the problem of the existing VDF. We suggest the reclassification of road hierarchy, the approach of traffic survey, the estimating method of VDF parameter, and the improvements of new VDF application. The new VDF allows us to estimate more realistic traffic situation in parts of demand, travel time and path between origin-destination.

When forecasting demand for a new road, a select link analysis is usually used to understand the OD pairs that send trips along paths that use the selected link (i.e., the new road). These OD pairs and their associated volumes are listed in a select link analysis. However, there is no research about other methods to obtain these results, so experts are almost always dependent on select link analysis results to obtain these results. The purpose of this study is to propose a model with a different approach from select link analysis to obtain the previously mentioned results. Time and spatial characteristics of networks are used in this new approach. Select link analysis results are used as a comparison index for the results by the proposed model. Also, two case studies (interzonal trips and intracity trips) are performed to validate the significance of the model. Consequently, a correlation coefficient between the results by the proposed model and the comparison index shows high significance: 0.82.

전통적인 교통계획 과정에서 이용되어 온 수요모형들은 대부분 수단선택과 통행배정을 나누어 실시하는 모형이 주를 이루어 왔다. 그러나 교통수단이 다양해짐에 따라 실제 통행자들은 통행 도중 환승을 통해 수단을 전환하는 경우가 발생하게 되며 이 경우 수단선택 과정과 통행배정 과정을 하나로 통합하여 분석할 필요가 있다. 따라서 기종점간 수단 분담율은 기점과 종점에서의 그 값이 다르지만 수단선택과 통행배정이 분리되어 있는 기존 모형을 적용할 경우, 출발과 도착시의 수단 분담율이 동일하게 나타나는 비현실적인 결과를 도출하게 된다. 이러한 문제는 통행수단을 통행의 기본단위로 보고, 수단통행량을 추정하기 때문에 그 수단을 이용하는 통행자들의 행태 대신 수단의 특성만이 모형화되기 때문이다. 따라서 기존의 교통계획 과정에서는 수단분담 과정과 통행배정과정이 분리됨에 따라 수단간 환승이 고려되지 않아 통행자들의 경로 구성과정을 정확히 표현하는데 어려움이 있었다. 또, 수단분담 모형으로 가장 많이 이용되는 로짓 모형의 경우 환승을 고려하면 비관련 대안간 독립성문제(CIA)가 발생하고, 환승경로 수요추정이 불가능해 사실상 통합 교통망과 같이 복수 수단이 운행하는 교통망은 분석하기 어렵게 된다. 본 연구에서는 이를 해결하기 위하여 사람통행(Person Trip)을 기반으로 하는 수단분담-통행배정 통합모형을 개발하고 기존의 결합모형과 그 결과를 비교하였다.

The origin and destination(O-D) matrix is one of the most important elements in transportation planning process. Traditionally, transport planners survey the O-D movements in order to estimate the O-D matrix. Even though the cost of the O-D survey requires high amounts of resources, the accuracy is relatively low. Therefore, many researchers have studied the estimation of the O-D matrix for automobile from traffic counts. however, there is a little attention for the application on the transit O-D matrix estimation from traffic counts. The objective of this study is therefore the estimation of the transit O-D matrix from traffic counts using Gradient method. which is verified by the reliability analysis using a contrived small example network.

교통정책과 계획수립에 가장 중요한 의사결정 과정은 통행수요 분석이고, 이에 활용되고 있는 필수적인 기초 데이터베이스는 분석용 네트워크와 기종점 통행량이 있다. 통행수요 추정과정의 합리성이 보장되도록 하기 위해서는 이러한 기본 입력 자료의 신뢰성은 중요하다. 하지만, 일반적으로 분석용 네트워크를 구축할 때 예산과 분석기간의 제약 때문에 실세계의 교통망 중 많은 부분을 단순화 시켜서 구축한다. 또한 기 구축된 네트워크에 대해서도 변경되는 교통망을 반영하기 위해 네트워크를 수정, 편집할 때에도 많은 재원과 시간이 소요된다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 문제점을 보완하고자 교통분석 목적의 패키지(EMME/2, TranPlan) 혹은 범용의 GIS 패키지(ArcGIS)에서 직접 이용할 수 있도록 기 구축된 네트워크를 기반으로 GIS 데이터로의 변환 혹은 네트워크를 추출하는 양방향 데이터 교환 시스템을 개발하였다. 이러한 GIS-T 통합 시스템은 네트워크의 편집과 분석에 효율적인 환경을 제공하여 보다 현실적인 교통망 모델링을 반영할 것으로 기대되며 다양한 교통문제에 대한 분석에 효과적인 도구로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

Conventionally the estimation method of the origin-destination Matrix has been developed by implementing the expansion of sampled data obtained from roadside interview and household travel survey. In the survey process, the bigger the sample size is, the higher the level of limitation, due to taking time for an error test for a cost and a time. Estimating the O-D matrix from observed traffic count data has been applied as methods of over-coming this limitation, and a gradient model is known as one of the most popular techniques. However, in case of the gradient model, although it may be capable of minimizing the error between the observed and estimated traffic volumes, a prior O-D matrix structure cannot maintained exactly. That is to say, unwanted changes may be occurred. For this reason, this study adopts a conjugate gradient algorithm to take into account two factors: estimation of the O-D matrix from the conjugate gradient algorithm while reflecting the prior O-D matrix structure maintained. This development of the O-D matrix estimation model is to minimize the error between observed and estimated traffic volumes. This study validates the model using the simple network, and then applies it to a large scale network. There are several findings through the tests. First, as the consequence of consistency, it is apparent that the upper level of this model plays a key role by the internal relationship with lower level. Secondly, as the respect of estimation precision, the estimation error is lied within the tolerance interval. Furthermore, the structure of the estimated O-D matrix has not changed too much, and even still has conserved some attributes.
