The climate change due to the increased consumption with fossil fuel and rise of the oil price have been serious global issues. Automobile industry consumes 30% of the oil every year and causes air pollution and global warming by the exhaust emissions and carbon dioxide ($CO_2$). The demand of two-wheeled vehicle increases every year due to the parking and traffic problem caused by the increased automobiles in the urban area. Approximately 50,000,000 two-wheeled vehicles were produced in 2008. The development and sales of the hybrid two-wheeled vehicle industry become active due to its increased market demands. In this paper, the change of the motor and battery efficiency, driving distance, hill climbing ability with the change of the motor capacity was analyzed. Simulation of the peculiarities in urban driving schedule(World-wide Motorcycle Test Cycle(WMTC), Manhattan driving schedule), constant speed(10 km/h, 35 km/h) of small electronic two-wheeled vehicle was also carried out. Through the simulation result, appropriate capacities of the motor and battery for urban driving was acquired.

Recently, the researches for air pollutant control technologies have been performing in Korea, while considering an one of the latest main topics as problems on air pollutant control. However, it is difficult to investigate emission amount of air pollutant by passenger cars, because of lack of the domestic information about mobile source; the number of research institutes are less in the whole. Especially, the informations on registered numbers and emissions of motorcycles are less. Thus, in this study, the analysis that is based on experimental results was conducted for finding out source profiling and emission characteristics on motorcycles exhaust. For these experiments, the domestic motorcycles were chosen and evaluated by EURO III standard. From the result, controlled pollutants (CO, HC, NOx) were met to EURO III, but low displacement motorcycles showed a higher incomplete combustion reaction than that of 250 cc motorcycles. Additionally, uncontrolled pollutants (BTEX and 1,3-butadiene) were decreased with increasing a displacement of motorcycles. However, the emission trend of aldehydes was not followed that of those; the formaldehyde ratio increased upto approximately 33%, with increasing a displacement of motorcycles. In the future, it would be used to support the CAPSS as basic data of Korea.

PURPOSES : This study is to analyze expected effect of a accident decrease when motorcycle safety inspection is introduced. METHODS : Based on the literature review of effect of 4-wheel vehicle inspection, probability of occurring accidents among defective motorcycles are calculated by using the number of estimated defective motorcycles and accidents resulting from defects of motorcycles. Then, the number of decreased accidents which is resulting from eliminating defects of motorcycles by safety inspection is estimated by using probability of occurring accidents among defective motorcycles. RESULTS : If the ratio of eliminating defects of motorcycles is 95% after motorcycle safety inspection, the effects of accident decrease of motorcycle safety inspection are analyzed from 2005 to 2008. As a result, 46,292 defective motorcycles are repaired and 1,376 accidents are prevented when the probability of occurring accidents among defective motorcycles is 2.97%. CONCLUSIONS : This study suggests the expected effect of motorcycle safety inspection is that the inspection can prevent 1,376 motorcycle accidents. However, the number of preventing motorcycle accidents are small, compared with the total number of motorcycle accidents because there are limitations to investigate the causes of defective motorcycle accidents. A more precise analysis of the expected effect of motorcycle inspection is possible when a systematic investigation of the causes of the accidents is implemented.

While increased use of motor cycles in the recent years for various demands could worsen air quality, only few studies have been conducted on estimation of emission factors and characterization of emissions from motorcycle. In this study, emissions from selected six models of motorcycle based on largest market share and production rate were investigated. To investigate gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants, such as carbon monoxide (CO), total hydrocarbon (THC), nitrogen oxide ($NO_x$), elemental carbon (EC) and organic carbon (OC), total 124 motorcycles between 2003 and 2007 model year were tested with regulatory driving conditions, such as CVS-40 and CVS-47 mode. These motorcycles were further sub-categorized based on their displacement (< 50 cc, 50~150 cc, and $\geq$ 150 cc), type of stroke (2- and 4 strokes) and model year (2003~2005 and 2006~2007). Tested motorcycles with recent model year (2006~2007) exhibited less emissions of regulatory gaseous and carbonaceous air pollutants compared to old model year (2003~2005). Chemical analysis showed that CO present in highest concentration followed by THC and $NO_x$ for all tested motorcycles. Interestingly, two strokes motorcycle produced higher THC emission but less CO and $NO_x$ than those of four strokes. For all types of displacement and stroke, emission factors (gram per kilometer) of THC and CO except $NO_x$ with recent model year (2006~2007) showed decreased trend compared to old model year (2003~2005). In addition to this, due to mixed combustion between gasoline fuel and lubricant, two strokes motorcycle showed OC > EC emission trend.

Recently, some researchers have been carried out risk assessment of vehicles exhaust on human health. Especially, some of VOCs which is non-controlled, was classified to hazardous pollutant, such as 1,3-Butadiene and BTEX(Benzene, Toluene, Ethylbenzene and Xylene). Therefore, the profile on non-controlled pollutant may be needed in the future, because it would be critical data or information to control them. Additionally, with increasing amount of motorcycle, the source profiling is essential for estimating emission factor and amount on motorcycle exhaust. For these, in this study, imported motorcycles (8 vehicles) were selected as a test model while considering the increasing ratio on sales volume between 2013 and 2014; it was also compared with domestic motorcycles on those. The experiment was conducted by driving mode, UDC and ECE+EUDC that made from EURO III. In addition, it was performed at cold start driving mode without effect by displacement, for evaluating only correlation of BTEX with HC. In order to apply the ratio (m,p-Xylene/o-Xylene) as a marker, the ratio was compared with those of tunnel, road side and residential area. As a result, it showed best correlation ($R^2=0.98$) among those. In the future, it has to be considered as a marker for effect evaluation to atmospheric environment by exhaust emission.

본 연구는 민원데이터를 분석함으로써 교통경찰에 대한 국민의 치안 수요를 탐색하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 교통경찰 관련 국민신문고 민원데이터 2,062건을 대상으로, 토픽모델링 방법 중 하나인 잠재 디리클레 할당(Latent Dirichlet Allocation)을 통해 주요 토픽을 추출하고 높은 비중을 차지한 위반신고에 대해 추가분석을 시도하였다. 이 과정에서 키워드와 대표문서의 일관성과 합치성을 함께 고려하였다. 분석 결과 교통경찰 관련 민원은 시설개선, 신호에 따른 교차로통행방법, 번호판 영치, 개인형 이동장치 등 41개의 토픽으로 분류할 수 있었다. 교차로내 위반과 이륜자동차의 위반에 대한 단속을 강화하고 무인교통단속장비, 횡단보도, 신호등의 설치 및 운영에 대한 선제적인 조치, 최근 개정된 법령과 시행된 정책, 경찰교통민원 사이트, 단속 사후 절차에 대한 더욱 활발한 홍보가 필요한 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 루프 센서를 통한 교통량 수집방식의 오류를 해결하기 위해 1종(승용차)과 3종(일반 트럭)의 구분이 어려운 부분 및 영상 이미지의 단점을 보완하기 위해 도로변에 열화상 카메라를 설치하여 영상 이미지를 수집하였다. 수집된 영상 이미지를 레이블링 단계를 거쳐 1종(승용차)과 3종(일반 트럭)의 학습데이터를 구성하였다. 정지영상을 대상으로 labeling을 진행하였으며, 총 17,536대의 차량 이미지(640x480 pixel)에 대해 시행하였다. 열화상 영상 기반의 차종 분류를 달성하기 위해 CNN(Convolutional Neural Network)을 이용하였으며, 제한적인 데이터량과 품질에도 불구하고 97.7%의 분류정확도를 나타내었다. 이는 AI 영상인식 기반의 도로 교통량 데이터 수집 가능성을 보여주는 것이라 판단되며, 향후 더욱더 많은 학습데이터를 축적한다면 12종 차종 분류가 가능할 것이다. 또한, AI 기반 영상인식으로 도로 교통량의 12종 차종뿐만 아니라 다양한(친환경 차량, 도로 법규 위반차량, 이륜자동차 등) 차종 분류를 할 수 있을 것이며, 이는 국가정책, 연구, 산업 등의 통계 데이터로 활용도가 높을 것으로 판단된다.
