There are 2,517 buses on 143 routes in Busan. One company is operating 36 hydrogen city buses (1.4%) and two hydrogen charging stations. By 2030, the number of hydrogen city buses will be increased to 500 and 40 hydrogen charging stations. In the survey of city bus companies, 61.5% of respondents answered 'not reviewing (at all)' and 23.0% of respondents '(actively) reviewing hydrogen buses'. And as for the level of help that hydrogen city buses give to bus companies, 23.5% answered 'helpful'. In order to promote the introduction of hydrogen city buses, first, it is necessary to stipulate support for hydrogen bus purchase cost and hydrogen charging station construction cost in related ordinances so that bus companies do not increase their burden of purchasing hydrogen buses in the future. Second, identify the number of new city buses introduced, convert about 50% to hydrogen city buses by the mid-term, and build 50% of the chargers in public garages with hydrogen chargers. Third, expand hydrogen refueling stations in city bus garages.

The emissions of several air pollutants ($NO_x$, CO, VOCs, etc.) for the replacement of all diesel buses by Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) buses were estimated in the Busan Metropolitan Area (BMA). These emissions were calculated from emission factors considering the different driving speeds with bus routes, distance traveled, and deterioration factors. For the purpose of this study, three categories of fuel type were selected: (1) the combination of diesel (65%) and CNG buses (35%) (DSL+CNG case), (2) all diesel buses (DSL case), and (3) all CNG buses (CNG case). The emissions of $NO_x$ and CO in the CNG case were estimated to be significant decreases (by about 50% and 98%, respectively) relative to the DSL case. Conversely, the emission of VOCs (980.7 ton/year) in the CNG case were a factor of 3.3 higher than that (299.8 ton/year) in the DSL case. In addition, the diurnal variations of emissions between two city buses (e.g. diesel and CNG) and all other vehicles were distinctly different because the two city buses operate at a regular time interval. Our overall results suggest the possibility that the pollutant emissions from the CNG buses can exert less influence on air quality in the target area than those from the diesel buses.

This paper deals with an operation concept of "time-transfer of buses", in which buses arrive a transfer center at the same time and allow passengers to transfer to other bus lines, so that passengerscan go anywhere all the timed-transfere buses operate with only one transfer. This timed-transfer bus system is known as an efficient operating technique which can be adopted in an area with sparsely distrubuted bus demand. A model of timed-transfer is estabilished in terms of vaious factors such as the expected(or average) arrival time, distribution of arrival time, timed-transfer cycle, shceduled departure time, etc. It is assumed that the objective of timed-transfer bus system is to minimize the total transfer waiting time. The optimal schedualed arrival time or buffer time(time required to arrive ealy in consideration of delay) is analyzed for a general case and various speicial cases. It was found that the optiaml buffer time is an inverse funcion of the timed-transfer cycl and increases with the cycle time, assumin g that there is a fixed scheduled departure time at the transfer cetner regardless of whether one or more buses fail to arrive before the scheduled departure time. If buses are to wait uhtil all the buses arrive at the transfer center, that is, the transfer departure time is vairable, the optimal scheduled arrival times can be obtained by a mathmatical programming.

Diesel 버스가 대체적으로 주류를 이루는 일반버스들에 대한 위험도 평가결과 첫째, 순간적인 누출이 일어날 빈도는 1.4E-3/bus/year이었으며, 이로 인한 하부사상으로 Fireball의 결과를 초래할 확률은 1.7E-4이었다. 또한 그 중 CNG 버스에서 순간적인 누출이 일어날 수치는 0.002 event/year로 나타났다. 둘째, 균열에 기인되어 점차적인 누설이 일어날 빈도는 3.7E-s/year로 평가되었으며, 이에 대한 하부사상으로서 jet flame의 결과를 초래할 확률은 1.2E-3으로 나타났다. 또한 CNG 버스에서 점차적인 누출이 일어날 수치는 0.04 event/year이었다. 아울러 피해 예측 면에서 CNG버스와 디젤버스의 운송거리에 대해 화재 사상자들을 비교하였을 때, 디젤버스는 0.091 Fire fatalities/100-million miles이었으며, CNG버스는 대략 0.17 Fire fatalities/100-million miles이었다. 이 의미는 화재로 인한 치명적인 사상자수를 비교했을 때 CNG버스는 디젤버스에 비해 평균 두 배가 위험하다는 것을 보여 주는 것이고, 결국 CNG버스들이 디젤버스들에 비해 주요 화재에 대해 민감하다는 것을 말해 주는 것이다. 본 연구에서 CNG버스들의 위험도를 평가하기 위해 사용된 총칭적인 모델들과 고장 데이터들은 적정하다. 그러나 CNG버스와 관련된 연구에 있어서 더욱 더 정확한 결과를 제공하기 위해서는 향후 더 정확한 물리적인 면에 기초한 모델들과 CNG버스에 대한 자료 확충 및 데이터베이스화가 요구된다.

자동차에서 배출되는 배기가스가 대도시의 대기 오염원 중 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 특히 디젤이나 CNG버스 등 대중교통의 내연기관 차량은 매일 총 주행거리와 운행시간이 길고 차량 수량이 많기 때문에 배출가스 저감 대책이 시급하다. 본 논문에서는 실제로 전기버스의 도로 주행시험을 통한 연료소모율(km/kWh)을 측정하였다. 측정값을 근거로 버스 한 대당 내연기관과 전기버스에서 발생되는 CO₂배출량을 계산하였다. 전기버스를 시내버스로 대체할 경우 CNG버스 대비 예상되는 이산화탄소 저감 등 환경개선 효과와 더불어 전기버스로 대체가 확대될 경우 부가적인 효과를 분석하였다.

Purpose: Generally, since the population density is lower in suburban areas, the distance to school is inevitably long. Therefore, schools in suburban areas often operate school buses to improve student welfare. However, since school buses are usually used only during going to and from school, the utilization rates are relatively low. Therefore, this study aims to establish integrated operation plan of public school bus covering all schools. Methods: It is necessary to decide which school buses will serve the specific demand node which want to go to certain school in order to design an integrated operation plan for school buses. Therefore, a mathematical model is developed for minimizing the total number of vehicles and the distance of transportation by reflecting the characteristics of school buses and students as constraints. To solve the proposed mathematical model, CPLEX, a commercial solver, is applied. Results: To validate and to confirm the proposed process, numerical example is designed with the comparison between before and after integrated operations of school buses in terms of total operation cost. The result shows that the integrated operation can lead the reduction of the number of school buses as well as the decreasing of the fuel cost. Conclusion: This study provides the quantitative method to perform the integrated operation of school buses in suburban areas. The optimal operation strategy is required because there are more complex decision-making elements considering the integrated operation. It is expected to apply this research result at real situation to expand this services based on an optimal operation.

This paper shows an effective partitioning of static global row/column buses for tightly coupled 2D mesh-connected small processor arrays ("mesh", for short). With additional O(n/m (n/m + log m)) time slowdown, it enables the mesh of size $m{\times}m$ with static row/column buses to simulate the mesh of the larger size $n{\times}n$ with reconfigurable row/column buses ($m{\leq}n$). This means that if a problem can be solved in O(T) time by the mesh of size $n{\times}n$ with reconfigurable buses, then the same problem can be solved in O(Tn/m (n/m + log m)) time on the mesh of a smaller size $m{\times}m$ without a reconfigurable function. This time-cost is optimal when the relation $n{\geq}m$ log m holds (e.g., m = $n^{1-\varepsilon}$ for $\varepsilon$ > 0).

In South Korea, to evaluate the rollover safety of domestic vehicles, the maximum slope angle of the vehicle is specified, which is verified by the rollover safety test of driving vehicles. However, the domestic rollover safety test is not suitable for buses, because the small amount of static stability factor (SSF) will invalidate the rollover experimental equation due to the high center of mass position of buses. To solve the above problems, a dynamic model of the bus is prepared with assumptions of mass and suspension spring properties. Subsequently, the maximum slope angle of the model was computed by using the simulation of multi-body dynamics, and the result was compared with actual test results to validate the dynamics model. Also, the rollover Fishhook (roll stability) test was conducted in the simulation for driving model. During the simulation, roll angle and roll rate were calculated to check if a rollover occurred. Through the rollover simulation of buses, the domestically regulated formula for rollover safety and the procedure of rollover test for driving vehicles are evaluated. The conclusion is that the present regulation of rollover test should be reconsidered for buses to ensure to get the valid results for rollover safety.
