The ongoing development of autonomous driving-related technology may cause different kinds of accidents while testing new changes. As a result, more information on ODD suitable for the domestic road environment will be necessary to prevent safety accidents. Besides, implementation of the Autonomous Vehicle Act will increase autonomous driving demonstrations on roads currently in use. This study describes an ODD for demonstrating an autonomous driving shuttle in downtown areas. It addresses a possible scenario of autonomous driving around a downtown road in Anyang. Geometric, operational, and environmental factors are considered while maintaining a domestic road environment and safety. Autonomous driving shuttles are demonstrated in 30 nodes, each identified by node type and signal-communication. Link criteria are an autonomous driving restriction in 42 morning peak (8-9am) hours, 39 non-peak (12-13pm) hours, and 40 afternoon peak (18-19pm) hours. In the future, conclusions may be considered for preliminary safety assessments of roads where autonomous driving tests are performed.

Considerable evaluation is needed to design a new longitudinal tunnel in advance because it damaged drivers' driving safety and heightened the possibility of traffic accidents with its physical characteristics. Specifically, considering traffic psychological and ergonomic factors was very important to prevent the difficulty of maintaining safe speed, the increase of the drowsy driving, the fatality of traffic accidents, and subjective feelings such as anxiety while driving a car through the tunnel, from design to construction. This study dealt with driving safety evaluation of an original road alignment design for the longitudinal tunnel (length: above 10km) with a driving simulator, and helped us to improve an original road alignment design and make an alternative road alignment design with presenting risky districts. The results of experiment showed that inflection points were revealed more risky districts, because they impaired driving safety and elevated driver workload while driving a car through around the inflection points of two-way route. Finally, the limitations and implications of this study were discussed.

Recently, the automobile industry is rapidly changing due to autonomous vehicles based on advanced ICT technology. As a result, studies related to autonomous vehicles have also been actively conducted. However, most studies are focusing on the autonomous driving technology so that the prediction of changes in road traffic safety and associated legal system due to the introduction of autonomous vehicles are lacking. The purpose of this study is to suggest improvement methods and priorities of road traffic safety projects according to the introduction of autonomous vehicles. As a result of the AHP analysis using the results of the questionnaire surveyed for autonomous driving car experts, it was analyzed that revision of the traffic safety inspection law and development of education system for autonomous driving motor drivers and operators should be given top priority.

Conditional autonomous vehicles should hand over control to the driver according on driving situations. However, if the driver is immersed in a non-driving task, the driver may not be able to make suitable decisions. Previous studies have confirmed that the cues enhance take-over performance with a directional information on driving. However, studies on the effect of take-over cues on the driver's brain activities are rigorously investigated yet. Therefore, this study we evaluates the driver's brain activity according to the take-over cue. A total of 25 participants evaluated the take-over performance using a driving simulator. Brain activity was evaluated by functional near-infrared spectroscopy, which measures brain activity through changes in oxidized hemoglobin concentration in the blood. It evaluates the activation of the prefrontal cortex (PFC) in the brain region. As a result, it was confirmed that the driver's PFC was activated in the presence of the cue so that the driver could stably control the vehicle. Since this study results confirmed that the effect of the cue on the driver's brain activity, and it is expected to contribute to the study of take-over performance on biomakers in conditional autonomous driving in future.

This study focused on indoor spaces and convenience devices among vehicle interior designs suitable for the autonomous driving era, and presented an interior design model for future automobiles by applying the STEEP analysis method. The service design methodology is applied to deal with changes in display devices installed for the purpose of rearranging layouts and providing driver-centered information. Changes in types and installation locations of displays for various purposes such as connected and infotainment are expected. In particular, through this analysis, trends and experiences through indoor interior research in future self-driving cars will be studied, and subsequent studies will be used as basic data for actual development and application. Key drivers were extracted after deriving future trends linking the research project conducted in five stages to STEEP and consulting experts through FGI. Through this, it was later presented as a direction for indoor design. Through user-centered participatory design methods, emotional keyword derivation methods were used, summarized the derived drivers in five major trends in the future society, and each derived drivers were grouped to consider the relevant technology fields, and added elements to the autonomous driving level. This is an indoor ray viewed from the perspective of various social issues as well as personal tendencies in the future self-driving car industry.

본 논문에서는 통행 시간의 측정 방법 중 하나인 CCTV를 활용한 주행 차량 조사법을 이용하여 교통량을 측정한다. 교통망의 서비스 수준을 측정하는 주요 기준인 통행 시간과 지체 시간에 대하여 알아본다. 신호등 간격이 넓어서 연속적인 교통류 특성을 갖는 곳에서 측정을 하도록 한다. 반대편의 교통류가 충분히 식별 가능한 구간이어야 하고, 구간의 끝부분에서는 유턴이 가능해야 한다. 이 방법은 측정차량의 운전수만 있으면 CCTV와 프로그램이 알아서 측정하고, 시간, 거리, 교통량을 기록할 수 있는 장비도 필요 없다.

본 연구의 목적은 1995년 우리 나라에서 발생한 교통사고의 인명피해비용을 추정 하는 것이다. 인명피해비용추정을 위한 방법론으로는 인적 자본법을 사용하였다. 인적자본 법의 기본이 되는 미래손실생산량의 계산은 임금을 기본으로 하지 않고 GNP를 기준으로 삼는다. GNP 상승률을 8.14%로 고정하고, 성장률에 대한 할인율의 비를 0.92, 0.94, 0.98 로 정하고, 이에 따른 할인율은 0.17, 0.15, 0.10으로 계산된다. 따라서, 각각의 비율에 따 른 총 인명피해액은 1조 2천억원, 1조 5천억원, 2조 6천억원이 된다. 또한, 평균인명피해액 을 구하면, 1억 2천 5백만원, 1억 5천 3백만원, 2억 5천 5백만원이 되며, 비용-편익 분석 을 위한 추정된 총 주행거리당 원단위 비용은 각각의 경우, 5원, 6원, 10원으로 산정 되었 다. 본고에서 추정한 총 주행거리당 원단위 비용은 도로 안전시설물 투자전 평가에 도움을 줄 수 있으리라 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to examine the dynamic characteristics of low, medium and high speed Maglev trains and guideways through dynamic interaction analysis. The coupled dynamic equations of motion for a vehicle of 10-dof and the associated guideway girders are developed by superposing vibration modes of the girder itself. The controller used in the UTM-01 Maglev vehicle is adopted to control the air gap between the bogie and guideway in this study. The effect of roughness, the guideway deflection-ratio and vehicle speed on the dynamic response of the maglev vehicle and guideway are then investigated using the 4th Runge-Kutta method. From the numerical simulation, it is found that the air gap increases with an increase of vehicle speed and the roughness condition. In particular, the dynamic magnification factor of the guideway girder is small at low and medium speeds, but the factor is noticeable at super-high speeds.

This paper proposes an accelerated life evaluation of drive shaft for the power train parts of special purpose vehicle. It is necessary the real load data of usage level driving load condition for life evaluation of power train parts, but we can't get the load spectrum data for evaluation in many case of special purpose vehicle. So, in this paper, the road load spectrum data for evaluation is created by modeling and simulation based on vehicle data and special road condition. The inverse power model is used for accelerated life test. The equivalent torque of load spectrum is achieved using the Miner's Rule. This paper also proposes the calibrated acceleration life test method for drive shaft. The fatigue test is performed through three stress levels. The lifetime at normal stress level is predicted by extrapolation, and is verified through comparison of experimental results and load spectrum data.
