Recently, the coastal transportation of the Yellow Sea is increasing due to the vastly expanding trade among countries surrounding the Yellow Sea. As the 50 percentages of the total domestic container transportation are concentrated on the National Capital region, the traffic congestion in the key land transportation routes brings about the weakening of the global competitiveness. In this study, the efficient barge systems for sea-river shipping of the Han-river, the Kyongin canal and coastal ways of the Yellow Sea are considered based on the criterion of canal and cargo volumes. To find the efficient barge system of the model barge in the Kyongin canal. the transport efficiency factor and transport ability of each barge system with the variation of sailing speed and length are calculated.

In order to reduce Green House Gas(GHG) reduction in the road freight sector and thus establish green logistics, running efficiency of goods vehicles is of paramount importance. Providing effective transportation infrastructure can contribute to achieve the green logistics by reducing empty running of heavy goods vehicles and van, increasing the average payload on the vehicle, and shifting the transportation mode. In order to reduce the environmental impact from the road freight sector, it is essential to quantify the amount of environmental loading from the sector. However, any systematic survey on the environmental loading from the logistics companies has not been carried out in Korea. In this study, the environmental index for the road freight sector is defined as the amount of $CO_2$ emission per ton km generated from goods vehicles. The computational analysis shows that the average $CO_2$ emission per ton km generated by the logistics companies in Korea is $363g-CO_2/ton{\cdot}km$. Compared to UK (=$130g-CO_2/ton{\cdot}km$) and France (=$97g-CO_2/ton{\cdot}km$), the efficiency of logistics in Korea is 2.8 and 3.7 times as low as in the advanced countries. It also indicates that the main reasons for the low efficiency are mainly due to the high rate of empty operation of goods vehicles and the low payload.

대도시지역은 인구와 경제활동의 밀집도가 매우 높은 지역이나 계속되는 교통혼잡의 가중에의한 신속한 물자이동의 제약과 화물작업을 위한 공간의 부족 등으로 인하여 원활한 수송활동과 물류활동을 제한하는 장애요인들이 화물의 이동에 비하여 많은 실정이다. 도시가 존속하고 생산활동, 소비활동을 하기 위해서는 원자재, 에너지, 제품 등이 도시내·외를 통해 생산부문간과 개인·집단간에 원활한 수송이 이루어져야 한다. 하지만, 서울과 같은 대도시는 우리 나라 전체 경제에 미치는 영향이 매우 큼에도 불구하고 급속하게 증가하는 승용차 위주로 교통소통, 교통체계개선(TSM), 도로망 구축 등의 정책이 시행되어 왔다. 대규모 물류이동이 필수적인 서울의 남대문시장, 동대문시장, 용산전자상가 등 오래전부터 형성되어 온 도심상가지역은 굳이 언급하지 않더라도 서울 근교 신도시에 점차 확산되고 있는 대형 할인매장 등의 유통업무지구, 대형 사무용 건물 등에 원활하고 적시의 수송지원을 위해서는 체계적이고 합리적인 물류체계와 화물시스템 못지 않게 그에 따른 도로의 기하하적 구조나 화물차량을 고려한 신호체계 등이 필요하다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 일반적인 도시 TSM기법 중에서도 화물차량 위주의 TSM기법에 중점을 두고 대도시에 적용 가능한 도로상의 화물차량 소통기법을 연구하여 그 적용성과 기대효과를 살펴보는데 그 목적이 있다. 본 연구는 크게 도시외곽을 경유하는 화물차량에 관한 도시외곽 화물 TSM 기법과 도시내 통과차량 소통기법, 주·정차 및 조업차량관리기법의도시내 화물TSM 기법으로 구성되어 있다. 도시외곽 화물 TSM 기법의 주내용은 신호체계 개선과 도로의 기하구조 개선 등이며, 도시내 화물 TSM 기법은 화물차량의 도시내 교통소통 기법과 화물차량의 주·정차 관리 및 조업차량 관리에 대한 연구를 수행한다. 대부분의 TSM 개선방안의 시행주체가 경찰청과 시이므로 본 연구의 결과는 도시의 원활한 화물교통소통을 위하여 적용가능할 것으로 예상된다.

The purpose of this study is to look for the relationship between export weight and control volume, inland cargo, export cargo transport, ship departure. The analysis period were used for a total of 113 monthly data from January 2011 to May 2020. Data were retrieved from the Korean Statistical Information Service of the Statistics Korea. The data used in this study were performed numerical analysis, index analysis and model analysis using the rate of change from the same month of the previous year. In the trend of the increase rate, the amount of control has plummeted from 150% to 60% due to the influence of Corona 19 in the beginning of 2020. At the same time, export weight and export cargo transport also decreased. As a result of the analysis, export weight showed relatively high synchronization with export cargo transport and control volume. On the other hand, export weight and inland cargo showed relatively low synchronization. Export weight is expected to continue in 2020 after the fluctuation rate began to decrease after 2019. If we can find the point of rebound in control volume or export cargo transport in the future, we can predict the point of increase in export weight. We expect to see an increase in export weight as soon as possible.

The Busan-Ulsan-Gyeongsangmando(BuUlGyeong) megacity aims to grow into the second metropolitan area by strengthening the growth and connectivity of the southeast region in Korea. In order to analyze the linkage between port logistics and regional economic development, this study focused on the economic community of BuUlGyeong. The findings are as follows. First, it was found that vessel entry and departure had a positive (+) significant effect on cargo volume. Second, the cargo volume was found to have a preemptive effect on the vessel entry and exit ports and the composite index. Third, the composite Index was found to have a significant positive (+) effect on cargo volume. From the results of the variance decomposition, it can be confirmed that the composite index has a weak impact on ship entry/exit and cargo volume. Based on the above findings, some policy implications are derived. First, regional governments in BuUlGyeong should provide incentives to revitalize the maritime economy such as the expansion of maritime port infrastructure and encouraging investment. Second, since an increase in cargo transport volume at major national ports linked to the BuUlGyeong region has a positive (+) effect on economy. Therefore it is necessary to expand actively port marketing and regular service for the country and ports. Third, investments should be made continuously to expand the marine port infrastructure such as the expansion of facilities so that global shipping companies can continue to call megacities in BuUlGyeong ports for super-large ships and cruises.

Hub network design for freight transportation is a decision process that determines hub locations together with freight transportation routes among shippers so as to ultimately minimize total logistics cost. This study presents the optimal location of hubs by strict hub network design policy with single allocation, which overcomes the limitation of Kim et al. (2008) that does not allow direct transportation among shippers. The greedy-interchange algorithm is employed for hub location decision process, and EMME/2 is adopted for the route searching process. Application of the processes to the nationwide highway network shows that the best hub locations in order are Seoul metropolitan, GyeongNam, Chung-nam, Jeon-Nam, Gyeong-Buk, Chung-Buk, and the locations are concentrated on the Seoul-Busan corridor. The strict hubnetwork design policy with single allocation increases the transportation distance but decreases the transportation cost by passing through the hubs instead of direct transportation. The reduction in total transportation cost can be achieved as the number of hubs increases, but the amount of the reduction gradually decreases because the cost reduction from the decrease in detour transportation distance between non-hubs and hubs becomes less than the discount reduction from dispersion of inter-hubs transportation volumes.

Line planning is to determine the frequency of trains on each line to satisfy origin-destination demand while minimizing total operation cost. However, different from the line planning in passenger transportation, it is more important at which intermediate stations each train should be stopped and shunted because the freight car handling works like drop-off or(and) pick-up can incur much time and high cost so that the delay deteriorates the quality of rail freight transportation service. We present an optimization model for constructing line plan in rail freight transportation to simultaneously minimize the train operation cost and total transportation time of freights. And we suggest a column generation approach for our problem, which can solve the real network instances in reasonable computation times.
