The travel speed between two locations within the downtown differs according to time horizon and district. Also, There is delay time on numerous traffic signals and bottle neck areas. It has an influence on planning the vehicle routing. However, there are almost no studies focusing on delay time for distance and travel time between two locations among the existing researches for vehicle routing problem (VRP). In this paper, we approach the real VRP by designing the model which estimates the delay time for traffic signal and bottle neck areas. The results of computation experiment demonstrate that proposed method performs well and have better solution than other method not considering the delay time.

버스운영에 관한 최적화 모형에는 총 시스템 비용의 최소화 모형과 사회적 편익의 극대화 모형이 있다. 이들 모형들은 해석적 방법에 의해서 특정 이상화된 문제를 연구했다. 특정 필요조건들을 충족시키면서 최적 버스크기, 서비스 빈도, 보유대수를 결정하려고 애썼다. 그러나 실제 버스의 운행시간은 정류장의 지체시간과 승객의 수요에 따라 변화하고 승객의 비용추정시 접근시간을 현실적으로 고려하지 못해 버스 운영의 비효율성을 초래하기 쉽다. 본 연구의 목적은 시간대별로 이용자와 운영자의 비용의 합으로 구성된 총 교통 모형을 최소화는 모형을 구축하는 것이다. 본 논문에서는 기존의 문헌에서 충분히 고려하지 않은 정류장 간격에 따른 이용자의 접근시간과 버스가 정류장에 들어가고 나올 때의 감·가속으로 인한 지체와 승객의 승·하차로 인한 지체를 고려한 버스의 정류장 정차시간을 기존의 모형에 추가시켜서 운행간격, 버스정류장의 정차시간, 정류장 간격 및 보유대수를 결정하는 방법을 제안했다. 아울러 실제 서울시에서 운행되고 있는 시내버스 노선에 대해 사례분석을 통해서 본 모형을 실제 적용해보고 기존의 운영비용과 비교하고 본 모형의 유효성을 검증할 예정이다.

The linear traffic model(Vertical queueing model) that is adopted widely in traffic flow estimation assumes that all vehicles have the identical motion before joining a queue at the stop-line. Thus, a queue is supposed to form vertically not horizontally. Due to the simplicity of this model, the departure time of the leading vehicle is assumed to coincide with the start of effective green time. Thus, the delay estimates given by the Vertical queueing model is not always realistic. This paper explores a microscopic traffic model(a Kinematic Car-following model at Signalised intersections: a KCS traffic model) based on the one dimensional Kinematic equations in physics. A comparative evaluation in delay and sensitivity of delay difference between the KCS traffic model and the previously known Vertical queueing model is presented. The results show that the delay estimate in the Vertical queueing model is always greater than or equal to the KCS traffic model; however, the sensitivity of delay in the KCS traffic model is greater than the Vertical queueing model.

교차로 지체를 추정하기 위해서는 대기행렬 모형이 적합한데 모든 대기시스템은 시 간의 함수로 운영되므로 우리는 분석하고자 하는 시스템이 가변상태인지 또는 안정상태인지 를 먼저 결정하여야 한다. 신호화된 교차로에 유입·유출되는 특히 유입교통량은 시간대별 변화가 심하다. 미국 HCM에서는 이를 15분 단위로 분석하도록 제안하였으나 신호교차로 체계의 정밀 분석을 위해서는 만족스럽지 못한 시간단위이다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위 해서는 시스템이 안정상태가 아닌 가정으로 접근하여야 하며, 더 나아가 Dynamic한 분석이 요구된다. 안정상태의 지체는 Webster를 비롯한 여러 학자들에 의해 광범위하게 연구되어 왔다. 그러나 그들이 갖는 가정은 일반적으로 비현실적이어서 정밀한 지체추정은 실제로 가 능하지 않다. 안정상태 가정하에서 해법의 결점은 도착교통량이 용량에 다다를수록 더욱 심 하게 되어 비현실적인 지체예측을 하게 된다. 본 논문은 기존 분석방법론의 제반 한계성과 제약성을 검토하고 현실적인 교차로 지체모형을 개발하기 위해 고려되어져햐 할 변수들을 정립하고자 한다.

감응식 신호운영변수 설계에 관한 연구는 정주기식 신호운영변수 설계의 그것보다 그 수준이 현저히 미비하며 이는 감응식 신호운영 특성을 반영한 평가방법의 부재로 감응식 운영변수의 평가가 불가능하였기 때문이다. 본 논문은 최근에 소개된 평균 감응현시 녹색시간 추정 수리모형을 이용하여 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 지체도를 최소화하는 최대녹색시간의 설계방안을 제시한다. - '최소녹색시간'과 '단위연장시간'은 보행자 횡단시간 및 차량 차두시간 등 지역별 운전자/보행자의 특성과 관련이 있어 일반적인 최적화 설계 수리모형의 적용에 무리가 있어 제외한다. 제안된 설계방안은 감응식 운영논리를 토대로 감응현시 군의 평균녹색시간과 평균주기를 산정하며, HCM 지체도를 평가하고, 가능한 대안 중 지체를 최소화하는 최대녹색시간 운영변수 군을 '혼혈 유전자 알고리즘'으로 도출한다. 현장실험을 통해 도출이 불가능한 실제 최적치를 Corridor Simulation(CORSIM)모형을 이용하여 추정하였고 이를 제안된 설계방안으로 도출된 최대녹색시간 운영변수' 값들과 비교하였다. 비교결과 교차로 v/c 비율이 1.0 보다 낮을 시는 제안된 방법을 통해 설계된 최대녹색시간 운영변수 군이 최소 CORSIM 지체도를 산출하는 최대녹색시간 운영변수 군과 동일한 것으로, v/c비율이 1.0보다 높을 시는 다른 것으로 결과되었다. v/c비율이 1.0 보다 높은 경우는 정주기식 교차로 운영에 효율적이라 감응식 운영의 필요를 벗어나므로 제안된 최대녹색시간 설계방안은 감응식 신호운영 필요범위 내에서 효율적이다. 기존의 최대녹색시간 설계는 정수기식 최적녹색시간을 기준으로 최대녹색시간을 추정하며, 그러한 과정을 돕기 위하여 추정범위(설계자가 범위 내에서 임의로 선택함)를 제시하는 것이 기존의 연구임을 비교하면 본 연구에서 제안하고 있는 설계방법의 의미가 크다.

This study is to estimate delay time model of signalized intersection by using travel data of Bus Information System. BIS, which applies the advanced information technology to an existing bus system, has been developing and operating in many cities. However, even though some useful traffic informations have been collected from BIS operation, utilization of real-time data to the traffic operation has not been promoted due to the inhomogeneity of modal speeds. Accordingly, in this study, a fundamental research is performed for traffic controls in urban areas and providing a traffic information throughout a methodology for estimating delay time using the data from BIS was developed. This delay time model setting bus travel time excluding service time of a bus stop as explanatory variables was constructed as a regression model, and the coefficient of determination of a linear regression model most highly appeared as 0.826. As a result of performing T-test with field survey values and model estimation values for verifying constructed models statistically, it was analyzed to be statistically significant in a confidence level of 95%.

Most research for until at now link travel time were research for mean link travel time calculate or estimate which uses the average of the individual vehicle. however, the link travel time distribution is divided caused by with the impact factor which is various traffic condition, signal operation condition and the road conditional etc. preceding study result for link travel time distribution characteristic showed that the patterns of going through traffic were divided up to 2 in the link travel times. therefore, it will be more accurate to divide up the link travel time into the one involving delay and the other without delay, rather than using the average link travel time in terms of assessing the traffic situation. this study is it analyzed transit hour distribution characteristic and a cause using examine to the variables which give an effect at link travel time distribute using simulation program and determinate link travel time distribute ratio estimation model. to assess the distribution of the link travel times, this research develops the regression model and the fuzzy model. the variables that have high level of correlations in both estimation models are the rest time of green ball and the delay vehicles. these variables were used to construct the methods in the estimation models. The comparison of the two estimation models-fuzzy and regression model- showed that fuzzy model out-competed the regression model in terms of reliability and applicability.

Existing shortest-path algorithms mainly consider a single attribute. But traveler actually chooses a route considering not single attribute but various attributes which are synthesized travel time, route length, personal preference, etc. Therefore, to search the optimal path, these attributes are considered synthetically. In this study route searching algorithm which selects the maximum utility route using discrete choice model has developed in order to consider various attributes. Six elements which affect route choice are chosen for the route choice model and parameters of the models are estimated using survey data. A multinomial logit models are developed to design the function of route choice model. As a result, the model which has route length, delay time, the number of turning as parameter is selected based on the significance test. We use existing shortest path algorithm, which can reflect urban transportation network such as u-turn or p-turn, and apply it to the real network.

The universal model for the parameter estimation of the Storage Function Model(SFM) was developed through the applications of the distributed model for various hypothetical watersheds and runoff conditions. The existing parameter estimation equations are based on observations and these equations which are derived from the restricted conditions are not sensitive to the variation of physical characteristics of a watershed. This study developed the universal model for the parameter estimation through the runoff simulations of 35,000 times. As the simulation results, we have known that the lag time is related to the longest stream channel characteristics and the storage coefficient is related to the watershed characteristics.

An accurate pedestrian-delay model is essential for the pedestrian-oriented evaluation of signalized intersection (SI). The crossing behaviors of pedestrians at signalized pedestrian crosswalks (SPCs) are various, and their arrival behaviors consist of two types, random and platoon. It is natural, hence, that the behaviors of pedestrian crossing and arrival should be considered in order to estimate accurate pedestrian delay. Despite this necessity, a simple pedestrian-delay model that cannot explain these behaviors of pedestrian movements is still recommended in Highway Capacity Manual (HCM). For these reasons, a pedestrian-delay model, suitable for various SPCs and SIs, is required to make pedestrian-oriented decisions on the design and operation of various SPCs and SIs. This paper proposes a novel pedestrian-delay model that is based on the behaviors of pedestrian crossing and arrival. The proposed model consists of two sub models: the one for SPC and the other for SI. The SPC delay model was developed based on the behaviors of pedestrian crossing during pedestrian green time. The SI delay model was designed based on the behaviors of pedestrian crossing and platoon arrival. The results of a numerical simulation showed that the proposed delay model can successfully overcome the under- and overestimation problems of the HCM model with explaining various behaviors of pedestrian crossing and arrival.
