The domestic road space is reaching the limit of planar space distribution, and Increasingly, the importance of three-dimensional space distribution through the development of underground space. therefore, In this study, a study was conducted on a traffic control method that can safely induce two different traffic flows in the connection between the ground road and the underground road. Through VISSIM, we calculated the appropriate amount of outflow and inflow traffic compared to the capacity of the main line when there is a Merge/Diverge section in the underground road. and Through the analysis of the number of conflicts, the appropriate traffic control level for safety in the underground, A basic study was conducted on the level of risk in the underpass according to the level of delay in the ground part through the analysis of the delay scenario of the ground road.

Due to rapidly inc Due to rapidly Increase the number of vehicles, the number of vehicle passed over the traffic capacity which is allowable on each road. In order to disperse the traffic in the congestion area, ITS related techniques have been studied advancing. However, the cost of setting up and managing In is considerable to recently improve the problem or In, various traffic analysis technique are problem using low cost RFID. In this paper, the method of RFID-Reader location selection, which is a core technique to analyze traffic amount and traffic context is proposal. In order to systematically utilize traffic related road information, GIS is used for the proposal method. In addition, a rule-based model using O/D data that is the important information for selection the location of traffic observation.

This study investigates the effect on automobile traffic flow of the bike lane configuration via the road diet implemented in Nam-Gu, Busan using the microscopic simulator TransModeler. The results show that the increases in average delay time and stopped time experienced by automobile vehicles after implementing the road diet during the peak period are significant, but those during the non-peak period are insignificant at alpha=0.1. The results in peak period are consistent with the results of the past studies, which concluded that a road diet can contribute to deteriorating the level of service when the automobile traffic flow rate on the existing roadway is relatively high. For the non-peak period, the analysis results may reflect the fact that the automobile traffic flow is not severly affected by the road diet due to the reserved capacity.

도시 교통의 혼잡을 개선하기 위하여 대도시에서는 고가도로의 건설이 필수적이며, 고가도로 노선 내에서는 교통흐름의 원활화를 위하여 교량 자체의 평면 형상을 도로선형과 일치시켜야 하므로 특히 곡선교의 건설은 필수적이다. 아치교(arch bridge)나 곡선교(horizontally curved bridge)는 교량건설에 있어서 널리 적용되는 구조이며 적절히 설계가 이루어진다면 미관이 뛰어나고 매우 경제적인 교량구조가 될 수 있다. 또한 건설 지점의 입지조건 등에 의해 곡선교의 건설이 불가피한 경우가 많기 때문에 이에 대한 정확한 해석은 매우 중요하다.(중략)

대도시 가로망의 대부분은 신호교차로와 신호교차로가 연결되는 가로(link)로 구성되어 있어 가로의 통행시간은 가로의 주변여건, 차량간의 상호작용 및 교통신호등과 같은 요소에 영향을 받게된다. 따라서 본 연구의 목적은 대도시 가로망에서 신호 연동체계로 운영되는 가로의 통행시간을 예측할 수 있는 모형을 개발하는데 있다. 본 연구는 대구광역시 가로망을 대상으로 연동가로의 교통흐름을 가장 잘 나타내는 Greenberg모형을 이용하여 연동가로의 통행시간 모형을 도출하였다. 도출된 연동가로의 통행시간 모형은 임계통행시간$(t_m$)과 교통량 대가로최대교통량비$(q/q_m)$의 함수로 이루어졌다. $t_m$모형은 안정류상태의 통행시간 및 불안정류상태의 통행시간의 비를 이용하여 개발하였고 가로 용량모형은 상류부와 하류부의 신호조건에 따른 변수와 가로길이를 변수로 하는 모형을 개발하였다. 개발된 모형은 대구광역시를 대상으로 조사한 12개의 연동가로의 자료를 적용하여 연동으로 운영되는 가로의 통행시간 모형을 도출하였다. 도출된 통행시간 모형은 도로용량에 제시한 모형에 비하여 간단하게 가로의 통행시간을 추정할 수 있으며 교통계획에 적용되는 통행시간모형 비하여 가로의 신호 및 운영조건을 포함한 세부적인 통행시간 모형이다.

This study started from the problem recognition of climbing lane installed in Korea roads. Because design standards of climbing lane installed don't match traffic pattern of korean drivers, coefficient of utilization of climbing lane is low and merging section between climbing lane and main lane has traffic accident possibilities. For this, brand-new design standards developed from the present lane design criterion, taper lenghs, and traffic signs, then field adoption test was carried out to prove the effectiveness. As a result, coefficient of utilization of climbing lane and average traffic velocity in climbing section are improved and the economic analysis also shows that brand-new standards has high feasibility for low cost. In case of broad application to not only expressway but national and local road based on the study, it could be a significant contribution to traffic flow improvement.

Traffic congestion has caused issues in various forms such as the environment and economy. Recently, an intelligent transport system (ITS) using artificial intelligence (AI) has been focused so as to alleviate the traffic congestion problem. In this paper, we propose a reinforcement learning-based traffic signal control algorithm that can smooth the flow of traffic while reducing discomfort levels of drivers and pedestrians. By applying the proposed algorithm, it was confirmed that the discomfort levels of drivers and pedestrians can be significantly reduced compared to the existing fixed signal control system, and that the performance gap increases as the number of roads at the intersection increases.

The path search method in the telematics system should consider traffic flow of the roads as well as the shortest time because the optimal path with minimized travel time could be continuously changed by the traffic flow. The existing path search methods are not able to cope efficiently with the change of the traffic flow. The search method to use traffic information also needs more computation time than the existing shortest path search. In this paper, a method for efficiency improvement of path search is implemented and its performance is evaluated. The method employs the fixed grid for adjustable heuristic to traffic flow. Moreover, in order to simplify the computation of estimation values, it only adds graded decimal values instead of multiplication operation of floating point numbers with due regard to the gradient between a departure and a destination. The results obtained from the experiments show that it achieves the high accuracy and short execution time as well.

도로 과적 차량은 일반 승용차보다 도로를 많이 훼손하여 도로, 교량의 사용 수명을 단축시키고, 유지보수 비용을 상승시키는 원인으로 분석되고 있다. 또한 과적 화물차량은 정상차량에 비해 도로 주행 흐름을 상대적으로 떨어뜨려, 도로 용량을 저하시키며, 소음과 진동의 발생, 배기가스 배출 등 여러 가지 문제를 발생시키는 원인이다. 특히, 도심지에서의 화물차 운행은 선진적인 단속체계가 더욱 필요하다. 현재의 단속시스템은 단속인력과 계측장비를 설치한 고정식의 과적 검문소를 운영하거나 이동식의 단속 검문을 병행하는 방식이다. 그러나 도심지의 경우, 교통정체, 고정식 검문소의 부지 확보 등 현실적으로 단속업무를 실시하기 어려운 환경이다. 본 논문에서는 현재 운영하는 고정식의 단속시스템을 자동 단속시스템으로 전환시키기 위한 기술적 구성 방안에 대해서 검토하였다.

In dense cities, which are covered by many impermeable areas, rainwater flows quickly along the roads and collects in certain areas. The surface runoff that fails to get intercepted by the roadside rain gutters results in a wider flow of water along the sides, which in turn increases the amount of water on the road and causes traffic congestion as well as accidents due to slippage. Based on these issues, this study was carried out in order to propose an intercepted flow calculation formula. To this end, the maximum longitudinal slopes of arterial roads and expressways were reflected to depict a road condition of 2~10 %, while a general traverse slope of 2 % was selected for the traverse slope on the side. As for the road lane condition, two, three, and four lanes were chosen for the area from the centerline to the sidewalk. As for the experimental flow rate, the rainwater runoffs at the actual design frequency of 5, 10, 20, and 30 years for road conditions were converted into experimental flow rates, and as a result, flow rates ranging from 1.36 l/s to 3.96 l/s were divided into ten flow rates for a hydraulic experiment. Also, an equation taking into consideration the inflow velocity and flow width along the roadsides was proposed. The results of the experiment showed an increase in flow width and a decrease in interception rate. Also, the inflow velocity at a traverse slope of 2 % was measured, while increasing the longitudinal slope. Accordingly, an equation for calculating the flow intercepted by rain gutters at a flow width reflecting the longitudinal slope of the road and rainwater runoff, according to the design frequency, was derived by performing a regression analysis using IBM SPSS Statistics 24. It is deemed that the equation derived in this study will be useful in designing rain gutters for roads.
