This study aims to propose a method for the estimation of operational delay cost using transportation card data in bus accidents. Average operational delay time from bus accidents was surveyed among 12 bus companies through an interview method. Then, the operational delay cost was estimated using actual traffic accident data and transportation card data. Results showed that average loss time per bus accident was found to be 45 minutes. In addition, total occupancy of 659 was estimated for the accidents investigated using transportation card data, resulting a total loss time of 494.25 hours. An estimated operational delay cost was 186.9 thousand won per accident, which was 6.37% of social agency cost. The magnitude of this number implied that operational delay cost may have a significant impact on traffic accident cost if included.

When a train is delayed because of a disturbance, the time interval deviation between successive trains increases, and high frequency metro lines can become unstable. Thus, it is necessary to control the traffic regularity to prevent any such instability. In this paper, we propose a simple but effective traffic regulation algorithm that gurantees system stability. In the proposed method, the control algorithm for running time is designed using a discrete traffic model where control input is determined from a linear combination of departure time deviations and control input of the preceding train to ensure an optimal time interval between successive trains. The results of the computer simulation are also given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.

In the major operation section of urban railway, there has been occurred habitual delay, and delay propagation and spread to consecutive trains. Therefore, this delay cause the increase of operation time and irregular operation, also the increase of crowd and inconvenience to passengers. The railway operation plan is a promise to passengers and must have reliability. In the case of high frequency urban operation, dwell time have considerable influence on operational headway, so it is very important to efficiently plan and control the dwell time at stations. In this paper, the survey of the research on dwell time for urban railways is presented. The practical estimation model for minimum required dwell time, and the numerical example and validity are proposed.

In the major operation sections of the urban railway, there has been habitual delay, and delay propagation; another problem is the increase of crowds and of inconvenience to passengers. The urban railway has different characteristics from rural railways, such as uncertainty of demand and irregularity of train operation. In urban railways, recently, operators manage quality indicators of service using operation results, such as the delay of train operation and the congestion of trains. However, because the urban railway has characteristics in which demand, passenger behavior, and train operation mutually affect each other, it is difficult to express the quality of service that passengers actually feel. In this paper, we suggest a quality indicator of service from the viewpoint of passengers, and present a demand responsive multi-train simulation method to predict dynamic dwell time and train operation status; we also use simulation results to consider changes in the quality indicator of service.

When a train is delayed because of a disturbance, the time interval between successive trains increases and high-frequency metro lines can become unstable. Time interval control is therefore necessary in preventing such instabilities. In this paper, we propose an optimal interval control algorithm that is easy-to-implement and that guarantees system stability. In the proposed method, the controlled trains are determined from the time interval deviations between successive trains; the control algorithm for staying time is designed by use of a discrete traffic model to ensure an optimal time interval between successive trains. The results of a computer simulation are also given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed algorithm.

This research shows the relationship between the number of trains and the probability of trains with arrival delay and suggests way to estimate the benefits of improved punctuality in a bottleneck section of the Gyeongbu Line. The arrival delays of high-speed and conventional trains were estimated using the train operation data of KORAIL. Linear regression models for the probability of trains with arrival delay by train type are presented in this paper. The probabilities of trains with arrival delay were more affected by the number of conventional trains than by the number of high-speed rail trains. For the empirical analysis, a project for increasing the capacity in the Seoul~Geumcheongu office section was tested. The benefits of the improved punctuality were estimated to be 4.2~4.5 billion Korean won every year. This research has some limitations but it can help evaluate more precisely the feasibility of the project of increasing the capacity in bottleneck sections.

Recently, traffic data is analyzed for efficiency of bus operation, D2D(: Door to Door) service, and self-driving of public transportation. However, various studies have been carried out to predict the delay time of public transportation, especially buses, but the research to date has been insufficient due to limitations of simple analysis and data acquisition. In this study, delay time estimation is performed by collecting and processing data such as day of the week, weather, and time of day based on bus operation information. The proposed method in this paper can be applied to autonomous public transport and public traffic control system by improving the accuracy by adding variables in the future.

본 연구에서는 GIS, GPS, Web기술을 이용하여 레미콘 차량의 운행상황과 이동경로 등을 실시간으로 파악 한 후 차량의 위치와 목적지 도착시간, 복귀예정시간 등을 예측하는 레미콘 차량 관제 시스템을 레미콘 배치플랜트의 도입 시 효율성을 평가하였다. 그 결과 공사현장에서 복귀하는 레미콘 차량의 도착시간이내 복귀거리등을 사전에 미리 차량관제서버로 전송해 주는 알림기능으로 인해 배치플랜트의 다음 배차를 위한 레디믹스가 반자동적으로 작동하여 차량의 대기나 다음 배차를 위한 차량 위치 파악 등의 지연시간이 현저히 감소되었다. 이는 1일 8시간을 기준 20대의 레미콘 차량을 분석 한 결과 실시간 운행정보를 통한 배치플랜트의 가동으로 인해 1일 155분의 시간이 절감되어 일 평균 2.5대의 레미콘 차량의 추가적 운행이 가능하였으며, 이를 비용으로 환산시 일 평균 90만원, 월 약 1920만원의 추가적인 이익이 발생하여 레미콘차량 관제 시스템에 따른 배치플랜트의 작동은 기업차원에서의 경제적 측면을 고려할 때 매우 효율적인 것으로 판단되었다.

A Wind tunnel test for a high speed ground vehicle was conducted to investigate the aerodynamic interactions between the vehicle and a solid channel. The free stream velocity was 30m/see and Reynolds number per unit length was $3.1{\times}10^5/m$. Experimental devices such as a variable channel ground and guide way were used for the test. As the vehicle was close to the channel ground and guide way, lift was significantly increased, drag was slightly decreased and pitching moments were restricted to augment static stability. Using smoke-wire, flow visualization was made to confirm these results by comparing the channel and non-channel flow characteristics of the vehicle. Under the influence of the channel ground and guide way, the flow beneath the vehicle was not discharged outside wing end plates, which was the major reason of the increase in lift of the vehicle.
