This study is carried out for understanding mode choice behavior of shippers and introducing ideal mode share between rail and truck in Korea. The model type is individual behavioral model and the input data type is stated preference (SP) data. SP data was prepared by design of experiments. The explanatory variables in models are transport time, transport cost and service level. The research result shows that it is more effective to reduce transport cost rather than to implement other strategies. For container, reducing transport cost and transport time and increasing service level simultaneously can strengthen the competitiveness of rail over truck transportation. On the other hand, for bulk freight such as cement and steel, it is better to reduce the transport cost than to do other attributes.

The purpose of this study was to identify evaluation factors and analyze the relative importance among factors to select a suitable transportation method for transferring the increasing amount of transshipment at multiple terminals at the Busan new port. To accomplish this, the evaluation factors were selected through a literature survey and brainstorming of a group of experts associated with the port operation, and were classified into five major factors and 15 middle factors. The evaluation factors classified hierarchically were surveyed relative to workers in organizations such as shipping companies, port corporations, container terminals, and related ministries. The importance of each factor was calculated using the hierarchical analysis process (AHP). As a result of the importance analysis, priority was assigned in order of safety, productivity, investment efficiency, operational efficiency, and policy conformity. Through this, it was necessary to select a suitable transportation method for the transshipment cargo in terminals while focusing on the cargo and terminal security and preventing accidents. As a result of calculating from six ITT transportation candidates, the priority was determined in order of monorail, Autocon, and so on as ITT transportation suitable for the Busan new port..

The objective of this study is to develop a supply chain-based freight distribution channel choice model considering shippers' logistics behaviors which will be used for freight demand estimation. For this purpose, this study utilized the distribution channel data of the petrochemical and automobile industries collected by KTDB center. The distribution channel choice models for these industries were developed by including transport mode, time, cost, and shipment size. It was found that the multinomial logit model with transport cost, time and shipment size is the best, and as shipment increases, bigger transport mode is preferred. Generally direct distribution channel with small truck was preferred over the one using distribution center and/or big truck.

This study examines the determinants of location decisions for domestic skippers and identifies them with the aid of the location choice model The authors have used Korea's commodity flow survey collected by the inter-regional shippers as well as socio-economic indicators. The results suggest that the location of shippers depend on agglomeration economies, market size, and logistics activities. Finally. this study suggests the direction of locational Policies to help the Korean government with logistics-related policies.

The multinomial logit model, based on random utility maximization (RUM) theory, has been the predominant model used in travel mode choice contexts. In this paper, the travel mode choice model based on random regret minimization (RRM) theory is proposed as an alternative to the RUM model, and the applicability of the RRM model is examined. The presented model is applied to the case of inter-city travel mode choice in Korea. The empirical results show that the RUM model and RRM model have parameters that are consistent with the intuition. The goodness of fit statistics in the RRM model improved compared with the results of the RUM model. Consequently, these results show the possibility of using the RRM model in the context of travel mode choice.

The objective of this paper is to estimate the DMT utility function for the transportation mode choice using SP survey. With the freight OD data the estimated utility function can be used as a basic data for forecasting DMT market. 3 alternatives of transportation mode are considered in SP survey; railway, road and DMT. The utility functions are developed according to the freight items, which are container, steel and chemical product. In this study the attribute variable are chosen as time, cost and reliability. The number of level for attribute variables are 3. The high valve is determined as +10% above the standard and the low value -20% below the standard.

본 연구는 지속적인 여객 및 화물량의 증가로 기존 수송수단이 포화에 이른 실정에 새로운 교통수단으로 추진한 고속철도 사업에 대해, 고속철도 개통 후 단기간에 드러난 이용현황 및 문제점을 도출해 기선방안을 제시하고자 한다. 이를 위해 관련 단체 및 기관의 자료를 수집 분석하였으며, 설문조사를 수행하여 결과를 도출하였다. 또한 광범 위한 고속철도 사업의 특성아래 여객 부문에 대한 대중교통 측면으로 연구의 범위를 한정하였다. 고속철도 개통 후, 여객 및 화물 수송의 형태에는 단기간이나마 큰 변화가 있는 것으로 나타났으나 그에 반해 고속철도의 이용에 있어서 주목할 만한 문제점 또한 조사되었다. 주요 사항으로는 역방향 유해성, 일반열차로의 불편전이, 터널통과시의 소음 등으로서 이는 개통 초기 고속철도에 대한 그릇된 대국민 인식을 가져오게 함과 동시에 향후 개인들간 교통수단 선택에 있어서까지 그릇된 영향을 끼칠 수 있다. 현재 각각의 문제점에 대한 개선방안으로 일반열차 확대 및 할인혜택, 점진적인 순방향 좌석으로서 교체 및 소음 저감방안을 위한 연구 용역 등이 실행되거나 준비되고 있으나 그에 대한 뚜렷한 개선 징후는 아직 미미한 상태로 분석되고 있다. 본 연구에서 실시한 설문조사 결과 아직까지는 고속철도에 대한 인식이 긍정적인 수준을 보이고 있으나 개별 문제점에 대한 좀더 깊은 고찰과 개선안 제시가 이루어진다면 향후 고속철도에 대한 대국민 인식을 한 단계 더 높여, 그 이용을 활성화 시킬 수 있는 좋은 기회가 될 것으로 판단된다.

The most important problem in logistic activities may be to decrease the transportation efficiency due to the traffic congestion in urban areas. The traffic congestion reduces the average travel speed of freight vehicles, and then increases the travel time. These problems can lead the logistic system to be inefficient. As a result, it causes an increase of transportation costs. In addition, the increased cost is a main barrier for the transition to an advanced logistic system. This study focuses on the analysis of key factors choosing commercial freight vehicles using Logistic regression-analysis with RP (Revealed Preference) data to solve the increase of private freight cars and transportation costs. Additionally, this paper presents policies to promote good use of commercial freight vehicles based on the results of this study.
