  • This study aims to develop a model by which city bus drivers who are likely to cause an accident can be figured out based on the information about their actual driving records. For this purpose, from the information about the actual driving records of the drivers who have caused an accident and those who have not caused any, significance variables related to traffic accidents are drawn, and the accuracy between models is compared for the classification models developed, applying a discriminant analysis and logistic regression analysis. In addition, the developed models are applied to the data on other drivers' driving records to verify the accuracy of the models. As a result of developing a model for the classification of drivers who are likely to cause an accident, when deceleration ($X_{deceleration}$) and acceleration to the right ($Y_{right}$) are simultaneously in action, this variable was drawn as the optimal factor variable of the classification of drivers who had caused an accident, and the prediction model by discriminant analysis classified drivers who had caused an accident at a rate up to 62.8%, and the prediction model by logistic regression analysis could classify those who had caused an accident at a rate up to 76.7%. In addition, as a result of the verification of model predictive power of the models showed an accuracy rate of 84.1%.

  • The purpose of this study was to analyze the preference of street furniture and to suggest street furniture design guideline in Kwang-Ju city Subjects consisted of 197 residents in Kwang-Ju city, Kyung-ki area. The data were analyzed using the SPSS statistical package. The results of descriptive statistics, factor analysis, t-test and ANOVA are presented. The result of this study showed that residents of Kwang-Ju city were not satisfied with street furniture, especially the wastebasket. Natural, easy and simple design for street furniture were highly appraised. And there were distinct differences in preferences of street furniture by sex and age groups. Women group wanted warmer and richer design than the other groups. Older age group wanted more curved and active design than the other groups. Considering these results, it is desirable to apply flexible and unique design according to the various characteristics of users and the region rather than to apply strict and standardized design. These results provide a practical guideline for the development of the street furniture design.

  • The development of civilization is in line with evolution of cities and transportation technology caused by industrialization. Up to now, a city has been developed owing to transportation cost reduction and needs for land utilization as a limited core business district. Continuous increase of urban population density has accompanied by lots of problems socioeconomically such as rise of land value, traffic congestion, gap between the rich and poor, air pollution, etc. Those issues are difficult to be solved in existing city ecosystem. However, a clue for solving the problems could be found in there. The design of Seoul mid-night bus route was from analysis of movement of people in the rural area by using ICT so that a city ecosystem should be firstly analyzed for solving rural issues. If the cause of those is found, big data platform construction is required to raise the life quality of citizen and the problems could be solved. Big data should be located in the middle of the platform connected with every element of city based on ICT for real-time collection, analysis and application. This paper addresses construction of big data platform and its application for sustainable smart city.

  • Rapid urbanization occurred a variety of transportation problems. Parking problem is one of the most problems of transportation problem then transportation engineers would get involved in trying to solve parking problem. A way to overcome a variety of parking problems needs preliminary data for conditions of parking but it lacks the preliminary data to do so. Thus this study analyzed a characteristic of a parking through a field survey for parking in Daegu Metropolitan City and Ulsan Metropolitan City. This study analyzed parking turnover, parking use ratio and parking basic unit for characteristic of a parking of each use districts and each cities. This study result reveals difference between the use districts' parking characteristic and cities' parking characteristic. Thus a close examination for use districts' parking characteristic and cities' parking characteristic is a prerequisite for a rational parking policy.

  • In this study, we employed an arithmetic process (AP) approach to resolve gearbox maintenance problems. The approach is realistic and direct in modelling the characteristics of a deteriorating system such as a gearbox since a decreasing AP can model a gearbox's successive operating times and an increasing AP can model the corresponding consecutive repair times. First of all, two test statistics were used to check whether the process is arithmetic or not. Next, model parameters of the AP were estimated using the simple linear regression method. Finally, the optimal replacement policy based on minimising the long-run average cost per day was determined for each type of gearbox.

  • The guarantee of transportation for elderly and handicapped people is increasingly necessary owing to their growing social and economic activity. In March of 2013, a partial amendment to the law for transportation of the vulnerable was made by the government, to make more convenient transport a legal requirement. The amendment describes standards for the installation of transport facilities, and its support available. However, the adjustment of low-floor bus routes is not included. Therefore, low-floor buses are operating without consideration for the handicapped. This study evaluates the current low-floor bus system user experience by considering the residential distribution of vulnerable customers and analyzing their reasons for using public transport. As a result of this work, adjustments to current bus routes are proposed. The residential distribution of vulnerable people has been assessed using the supporting materials of the urban renewal project in Busan City, and their reasons for using public transport have been collected by a survey of the target user groups. The results show that group A, which has good accessibility, was in high demand, but provided the most limited service. Whereas group C, which also has good accessibility but was in low demand, provided its service most frequently. The data show the supply and demand inconsistencies of low-floor buses, and the inefficiency of bus route allocation. Therefore, this study proposes improvements to current methods for the effective operation of low-floor buses.

  • Securing publicness and efficiencies are the two core goals for implementing quasi-public bus system. However, researches for evaluating the quasi-public bus system with respect to the two goals have been very limited. This study represents an attempt to evaluate the system performance in these two aspects. To achieve this, a framework for performance evaluation is developed. Utilizing the framework, the 5-year performances of the quasi-public bus system in Busan are evaluated. Acess, agency and public interests are employed as criteria for publicness evaluation. Financial aspects of operators, labor, vehicle utilization, productivity and operational costs are selected as indicators for efficiency evaluation. The results show that the publicness of bus services has been vastly improved, while the efficiency has been also improved in most areas except in cost and vehicle utilization aspects. The results of this study will be of use for planners and policy-makers developing strategies for system improvement. It is hoped that this study can be further refined by adding and adjusting indicators which this study may neglect or ignore.

  • To alleviate the demand on private car that is constantly increasing, Busan Metropolitan City (BMC) has established Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) to revitalize public transportation. But there are no unified lane system between BRT and general bus stations, which makes off-lane turning general bus to contribute to congestion. And as the bottleneck phenomenon at entrance/exit accelerates the congestion, there has been huge dissatisfaction among commuting drivers. Therefore, this study identifies efficient methods to operate better through measuring civilian awareness. We evaluate both satisfaction and drawbacks on BRT service with Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA). We first distinguish the groups by the awareness on BRT and their main transit usage, and then clarify the difference between the groups. And as a result, the group who is positive to BRT and uses buses often demands improvement in bus indoor comfort and curbing jaywalking. On the other hand, group who is negative to BRT and uses private cars often demands improvement in lane changing and the moving speed of private cars. We next examines the groups with MDPREF, one method of Multidimensional Scaling (MDS). And we have clarified that the evaluating criteria and the individual attributes of the groups corresponds very well.
