This Paper is a Part of research Project series to analyze unique traffic characteristics observable within weaving sections on urban freeways. The research objectives were to establish with headway distribution and maximum Passing volume on weaving sections the basis of weaving designs that can promote safety and efficiency. Until now, when one wants to check the maximum Passing volume on weaving sections, it is taken for granted using headway distribution of freeway basic section. However. it was suspected in this research that for weaving sections different form of headway distribution had better be used. To prove this, field surveys were made to count headway intervals which supposedly were influenced not only by freeway basic section flows but also by weaving flows and later on used to develop headway distribution for weaving sections. For validation of the developed headway distribution, $x^2$-test was applied to three different data set of observed headways, currently used headway distribution for basic sections(Pearson Type III distribution) and new headway distribution. The result indicated new headway distribution as the most appropriate distribution form. Also, maximum passing volume within weaving sections was calculated based on new headway distribution and compared with Drew's maximum Passing volume.

Rockfall failure at the access road to Seokguram were occurred due to the earthquake on September 12, 2016. A detailed investigation was carried out in order to find out the cause of the rockfall, to identify the risk of the entire sites, and to prepare proper countermeasure methods and mitigation. We checked for geological and topographical characteristics of overall slopes alongside the access road to Seokguram and made a face map. In addition, we analyzed topographical factors caused by the earthquake through calculating a degree of slope, degree of bearing, upslope contributing area, and wetness index with the use of shading relief map. As a result, we confirmed that the large rockfall occurred with a weak section. In this study, we also evaluated the overall slope stability of the entire access road to Seokguram in order to classify it into danger and caution zones depending on the risk of collapse.

본 연구에서는 농작업지내 모서리 점을 이용하여 자율주행 트랙터의 경로점을 생성하는 알고리즘을 개발하였다. 작업지는 직사각형의 형태에서 거리가 긴 방향으로 직선주행 경로로 하고, 직선경로의 수는 작업폭에 의해 결정되며 홀수 또는 짝수 개일 수 있다. 또한 TM좌표계에서 직선주행 경로의 기울기는 양수 또는 음수 일 수 있으며, 선회시 전체적으로 좌회전 또는 우회전하는 경우로 구분하여, 즉 총 8가지의 경우에 대하여 조건이 주어지면 경로점을 구할 수 있도록 프로그램하였다. 선회를 위한 곡선경로 생성에는 트랙터의 최소 회전반경 데이터를 사용하였으며, 이때 새로 진입할 다음 경로가 충분히 떨어져 있는 경우에는 선회 구간에서도 직선 경로 구간이 생길 수 있음을 고려하였다. 한 주기의 경로점은 직선 경로 구간의 시작점과 끝점, 선회 구간의 시작점과 끝점, 다음 직선경로로 진입을 위해 선회하기 직전까지의 직선 구간에 대한 시작점과 끝점 등 6가지의 경우로 구분할 수 있다. 이때 어떤 끝점 경로점은 다음 조작 구간의 시작점 경로점이 되므로 최종적인 경로점 데이터는 4개가 된다. 여기서, 첫 번째 경로점 생성에서는 직선구간 진입을 위한 선회구간의 시작점과 끝점은 제외하였으며, 작업지로 진입할 수 있는 입구와 출구는 동일한 것으로 가정하여, 작업이 완료되는 지점에서 선회하여 다시 출발점으로 돌아올 수 있도록 추가 구성하였다. 실제 상황에서는 직선주행 경로의 수가 정수가 되지 않을 수 있으며, 이때는 작업 구간이 약간씩 오버랩되도록 작업폭을 조정하여 경로의 수가 항상 정수가 되도록 하였다. 알고리즘 평가에 사용된 작업 패턴은 관행적인 방법으로서 작업 포장을 반으로 나누어 8자형 패턴을 이용하였다.

Initial entry section has vulnerability which exposes plain text parameter in Mobile WIMAX environment which is the 4th generation technology. Each node message need to be encrypted to prevent the third party attack or message leakage. In this paper, we propose Mobile WIMAX initial entry section encryption using Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem. We have compared proposed model with existing model using OPNET simulator tool. He delay rate has increased little bit in initial entry section than before after the comparison, but it has shown more effective in average delay and throughput than encryption applied other existing model.

This paper describes a result of the guidance and control for re-entry vehicle during TAEM phase. TAEM phase (Terminal Aerial Energy Management phase) has many conditions, such as density, velocity, and so on. Under these conditions, we have optimized trajectory and other states for guidance in TAEM phase. The optimized states consist of 7 variables, down-range, cross range, altitude, velocity, flight path angle, vehicle's azimuth and flight range. We obtained the optimized reference trajectory by DIDO tool, and used feedback linearization with neural network for control re-entry vehicle. By back propagation algorithm, vehicle dynamics is approximated to real one. New command can be decided using the approximated dynamics, delayed command input and plant output, NARMA-L2. The result by this control law shows a good performance of tracking onto the reference trajectory.

At present, the length of deceleration lane at freeway diverging areas are designed based on the design speed of main lines and ramps. This is possible on assumption that diverging vehicles decelerate at deceleration section after moving to shoulder lane in advance. But with high diverging volume, several vehicles will try to change to exit lane at the same time. This will cause the distribution of main lane flows or some vehicles may encounter short deceleration length because they miss the proper time to change the lane. The purpose of this study is to establish a design guideline of the length of deceleration section considering the volume of diverging traffic. Also, the results of analysis by the FRESIM simulation model shows that some improvements in respect of delays, speeds and speed deviations of mainline and deceleration lane.

Effective installation and operations of traffic safety signs in the advance warning area is of considerable interest for safer traffic management at freeway work zones. This study evaluated the feasibility of traffic safety sign installation based on a driving simulation experiment to take drivers' responsive characteristics into consideration. Both the compliance rate for speed limit and a lane-changing safety index were used for evaluating a set of driving simulation scenarios. It was identified that providing speed limit signs to reduce speed in advance and afterward guiding lane-changing could lead to safer maneuvering of vehicles entering work zones. The outcomes of this study are expected to be useful for revising freeway work zone management policies toward crash prevention.

Entry and exits of the rest area are sections where designed speed can be rapidly change and also a weak traffic safety section. In addition, two tasks can be performed simultaneously at entry of the rest area, particularly searching for deceleration and parking spaces/parking sides etc. Thus, design criteria is required in order to procure the stability of accessed vehicle. In case of Korea, geometric structure design criteria of entry facilities, such as toll-gate, interchange, junction etc was established. However there are no presence in a detailed standards for geometric structure of the rest area which affiliated road facilities. In this study, Derive problems in regards to the entry of geometric structure of resting areas by utilizing a sight survey and an investigation research of traffic accidents. The survey was targeting 135 general service areas. After Classifying the design section of resting areas' entry as well as derive design elements on each section, a speed measurement by targeting entry of rest areas and car behavior surveys were performed, then each element's minimum standard was derived through the analyses. According to the speeds at the starting/end point of entrance connector road, the minimum length of the entrance connector road is decided as 40m using Slowing-down length formula and based on the driving pattern, the range of the junction setting angle of the entrance connector road is defined as $12^{\circ}{\sim}17^{\circ}$. Suggest improvement plans for existing rest areas that can be applied realistically. This should be corresponded to the standards of entry and exit of developed rest areas.

This research analyzed the changes of drivers' visual workload with beta wave of bionic signals from brain's occipital lobe from entrance to exit section of the Yuksimnyeong tunnel which is 3.1km long in Daejeon-Tongyeong section of Jungbu expressway. There are 10 subjects who Participate our experiments and the results are as follows. First. the drivers' visual workload is higher about 41% in entrance section of the tunnel than 200m in advance of the section of the tunnel. Second, it is higher than 200m in advance of the section of the tunnel by 34.5% that the value of the drivers' visual workload who is driving in the tunnel. Third, as a result of analyzing the tunnel into 200m unit section, it is statistically different from other sections' at the 1.0km and 2.4km section from the entrance of the tunnel. If drivers sustain average visual workload for safe driving in very long tunnel, it's not desirable environment that drivers' visual workload goes under the average workload. Therefore, it would be the section where drivers who is driving in tunnel could cause a traffic accident.
