Though many studies regarding roundabout have been recently conducted, most of them have focused on operational aspect. Moreover, majority of the previous researches analyzes operational effects of single roundabout, but seldom investigate the effects of multi-roundabouts constructed on road networks. In this study, we seek ways to construct multiple roundabouts on road network maximizing their operational effects. The analysis investigate influence of both adjacent signalized and unsignalized intersections as well as influence of the distance from those intersections to roundabouts. The results show that the optimal distance between two adjacent intersections were calculated to be 150m, and any two intersections located within 150m apart influence each other thus imposing operational restrictions on each other. In addition, those results are confirmed using simulation analysis conducted on the real urban network in Nonheon regional area, Incheon City.

The objective of this study is to analyze the effect of the shoulder-use lane, which is a representative traffic management technique that increases the road capacity. The operation of the shoulder-use lane has been actively used as a countermeasure to improve traffic congestion, because it has the effect of improving traffic flow during rush hour. In Korea, the shoulder-use lanes are available at Gyeongbu, Yeongdong, and on the Seoul Outer Ring expressway, and their use is gradually increasing. Therefore, a comprehensive analysis was conducted to analyze the effects of the shoulder-use lane; including 1) analysis of individual shoulder lanes based on a time space diagram, and 2) analysis of shoulder lanes by road axis. These findings can contribute to the efficient installation and operation of shoulder-use lanes on expressways.

To evaluate the effects of transportation system operation, usually measures of effectiveness(MOE) such as travel time, space mean speed, stop/delay ratio have been used. But, energy consumption as well as the existing MOE in transportation receives more attention as an alternative MOE in transportation operation. The purpose of this study is a development of procedure, which could measure the relative energy consumption for each alternative and compare the results. A mesoscopic simulator called INTEGRATION is used to evaluate the operation of high occupancy vehicle lane, signal optimization, lane expansion, and the application of ITS. Among those, the application of ITS shows the greatest effectiveness in energy reduction, and then lane expansion, signal optimization, and the operation of high occupancy vehicle lane in the order named. Because we don't consider the characteristics of vehicle class, Potential demand and the simulation time is just for an hour. it is recommended that a procedure for precise economic analysis and an improvement in methodology are needed in the future for the expanded application of this study.

인도네시아는 수자원을 관리하는 기관이 총 9개 부처이지만 지역 단위로 가면 각각의 에이전시가 존재하는 등 복잡한 이해관계가 얽혀 있어 효율적인 수자원 관리 및 운영 기술에 많은 어려움이 있다. 이에 인도네시아 국립 수자원연구소(PusAir, Puslitbang Sumber Daya Air)와 공동으로 Cisangkuy 유역 내 다양한 시설물의 연계운영 효과를 분석하여, 한정된 수자원을 다양한 수요처에 원활히 공급함으로써, 지역민과 관리기관간의 이해관계를 해소하고 최적의 수자원 활용방안들에 대한 연구를 수행하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Cisangkuy 유역 내 Cisangkuy 강 상류부의 기존 수력 댐 운영과 상수량 증대를 위해 계획 중인 신규댐에서의 추가용수 공급을 고려한 연계운영 효과분석을 수행하여 수자원의 효율적인 활용을 위한 기초자료를 제시하고자 한다. Cisangkuy 유역에 대하여 현재 용수체계에 대한 모형의 적정성 검토를 수행하였으며, 기존 수력댐 저수지 시스템 운영효율에 대하여 물수지분석을 검토한 결과, 현 운영체계보다 최적 운영시 수력발전소 발전용량이 증가되는 것으로 검토되었다. 이와 같은 모형 구축자료는 현재 Cisangkuy 유역에 대하여 체계적인 운영방안이 없는 상태에서 대상유역 내 다양한 시설물 연계운영효과 도출을 위한 자료가 될 수 있으며, 국내 연구진들이 향후 인도네시아 수자원활용 계획 수립 시 기초자료 활용측면에서 유용할 것으로 예상된다.

This study deals with the effectiveness of roundabout. The goal is to comparatively analyze the operational effectiveness related to the conversion of rotary to roundabout in Korea. In pursuing the above, this study gives particular attentions to investigating the existing 20 rotaries and developing the networks of before-and-after improvement using VISSIM, and comparatively analyzing the effectiveness. The domestic rotaries were analyzed to need many improvements of geometric structure for the effective operation of roundabout. The main results are as follow. First, when the present condition of traffic volume were applied, the operational effect of rotary were evaluated to be better than roundabout, but the difference analyzed to be small. Second, the average delay per vehicle in the rotaries of urban area were analyzed to rapidly increase according to the growth of traffic volume. Finally, the average speed of roundabout were evaluated to be less (about 10km/h) than that of rotary, because the traffic volume of rural area were less than that of urban area.

In this study, a methodology was developed to evaluate the effects produced in the event of joint-operation of dams from the viewpoint of water use. It was applied to evaluating the actual results of dam operation in the Han River basin. In order to evaluate the effects of real joint-operation in terms of water supply and flow conditions, the methodology used the satisfaction rate of water requirement and the stability of flow conditions at the evaluation site as indicator. In order to evaluate the effects of joint-operation in terms of power generation, the total power generation produced by dams was used as evaluation indicator. Actual operation results were evaluated by comparison of evaluation indicators relating to single dam operation by which the notified mont of water was supplied, as well as to optimization models. Results of actual joint-operation of the Han River basin, from 2001 to 2004, were compared yearly with results from single operation and optimization model; in terms of water supply, the satisfaction ratio of water requirement stood at $94.36{\sim}99.68%$ for single operation, $97.16{\sim}99.90%$ for actual joint-operation, and 100.0 % for optimization model for all four years. The stability of flow condition was evaluated by the coefficient of river regime and coefficient of flow conditions definitely, indicating that flow conditions were more stable in case of actual operation and optimization models than in case of single operation. The actual total power generation was compared with that generated by other operation rules, indicating that the optimization model increased the power generation by $-3.47{\sim}6.54%$ compared with the actual total power generation, and that the single operation decreased the power generation amount by $12.68{\sim}38.94%$ compared with the actual total power generation.
