Recently, the stationary discontinuous armature, Permanent Magnet Linear Synchronous Motor (PM-LSM), was suggested as a driving source for long-distance transportation system. However, as these motors arrange armatures discontinuously, an edge occurs thereby leading to a cogging force. This works as a factor that hinders the acceleration and deceleration that takes place when movers enter into and eject from armatures. Therefore, in this study, the installation of auxiliary teeth on the edge of the armature of PM-LSM is suggested in order to reduce the cogging force caused by the edge when the armature is placed in a discontinuous arrangement. Auxiliary teeth are optimally designed by a 2-D numerical analysis using the finite element method was performed to generate the optimum design of the auxiliary teeth. The validity of the study was confirmed through the comparison of the cogging force induced at the edge in respect to the design parameter using the basic model.

Highway Rest Areas are envisioned to provide an accessible space for rest and parking for travelers, especially those driving a long distance. In addition, modern highway Rest Areas provide many amenities to highway users, including wifi service, picnic tables, litter barrels, running water, public telephones, and sometimes even free coffee. Various studies were conducted in the domain of Rest Area facility design and their operating costs in different states; however, limited studies were conducted on the maintenance costs of these facilities. Therefore, this study's main objective is to compute the annual maintenance cost of Rest Areas in the state of Nevada. This study also analyzes the main cost categories of the maintenance works. The raw cost data of Nevada Rest Area maintenance from 1990 to 2012 were collected from the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT). Results show that the maintenance cost fluctuated over the study period; the maintenance cost decreased from 1991 to 2004 and then increased until 2012. The primary cost categories of maintenance work are labor, equipment, and material costs. Among these, labor cost was the largest category with 56 percent of the total maintenance cost, followed by equipment cost and material cost. The findings of this study may help NDOT and other transportation agencies plan their budget for future Rest Area maintenance activities.

Optimal sensor placement (OSP) is a critical issue in construction and implementation of a sophisticated structural health monitoring (SHM) system. The uncertainties in the identified structural parameters based on the measured data may dramatically reduce the reliability of the condition evaluation results. In this paper, the information entropy, which provides an uncertainty metric for the identified structural parameters, is adopted as the performance measure for a sensor configuration, and the OSP problem is formulated as the multi-objective optimization problem of extracting the Pareto optimal sensor configurations that simultaneously minimize the appropriately defined information entropy indices. The nondirective movement glowworm swarm optimization (NMGSO) algorithm (based on the basic glowworm swarm optimization (GSO) algorithm) is proposed for identifying the effective Pareto optimal sensor configurations. The one-dimensional binary coding system is introduced to code the glowworms instead of the real vector coding method. The Hamming distance is employed to describe the divergence of different glowworms. The luciferin level of the glowworm is defined as a function of the rank value (RV) and the crowding distance (CD), which are deduced by non-dominated sorting. In addition, nondirective movement is developed to relocate the glowworms. A numerical simulation of a long-span suspension bridge is performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the NMGSO algorithm. The results indicate that the NMGSO algorithm is capable of capturing the Pareto optimal sensor configurations with high accuracy and efficiency.

본 연구의 목적은 지금까지의 수요 또는 공급의 한 측면만을 중심으로 하는 일방향적 단일모형에서 벗어나 화물운송의 수요-공급을 동시에 고려하는 모형을 정립하고 이를 활용하여 국내운송특성을 분석하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하는 것이다. 이를 위해 기존의 단일모형의 한계를 논하고 이를 개선할 수 있는 수요-공급 동시모형을 도입하여 국내화물운송 실적자료를 바탕으로 모형을 개발하였으며, 이를 바탕으로 국내공로화물의 특성을 분석하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하였다. 본 연구에서 개발된 모형은 공차거리율의 감소로 인한 적재효율의 증가는 적재용량(공급량)을 안정적으로 증가시키고, 이는 다시 물동량을 증가시키는 과정을 잘 묘사하고 있다. 이러한 상호조정 인과관계로부터 정부의 규제완화 조치가 장기적 관점에서 운송시장의 효율성을 재고시킬 것으로 예상할 수 있다. 그런데 물동량의 증가에 따른 공차거리율 감소 폭보다 적재용량의 증가에 따른 공차거리율 증가폭이 훨씬 큰 것으로 분석되어, 조정에 따른 단기적 비효율을 유발하는 것으로 나타나 물류인프라 구축과 단기적 조절 정책이 필요함을 시사하고 있다. 덧붙여 영세업자의 난립에 따른 소비자 보호를 위한 보완책과 함께 수요와 공급의 시장조절 능력에 따라 단계적으로 규제를 완화에 나아가는 것이 바람직한 것으로 분석되었다.

일반적으로 도시철도는 단거리를 짧은 운전시격으로 운행하는 특징을 가진 도시내 교통수단으로 요즘의 도시철도는 운영자의 요구에 따라 기관사가 없는 무인운전을 채택하는 추세이다. 이에 비해 일반 고속철도는 장거리 운행을 위하여 고속으로 운행하는 철도를 말한다. 일반 고속철도에는 도시철도와는 다르게 화물열차의 운행이라는 특수한 운행조건이 존재하며, 운영방식이 매우 다른 특성을 보이고 있다. 본 논문에서는 도시철도와 일반 고속철도의 운영방식을 비교하고 무선기반 열차제어시스템을 일반 고속철도에 적용하기 위한 조건을 제시하였다.

When assessing the risk of radioactive wastes transportation on land, computer codes such as RADTRAN and RISKIND are used as deterministic methods. Transportation risk assessment using the deterministic method requires a relatively short assessment time. On the other hand, transportation risk assessment using the probabilistic method requires a relatively long assessment time, but produces more reliable results. Therefore, a study is needed to evaluate the exposure dose using a deterministic method that can be evaluated relatively quickly, and to compare and analyze the exposure dose result using a probabilistic method. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the exposure dose during transportation of radioactive wastes using deterministic and probabilistic methods, and to compare and analyze them. For this purpose, the main exposure factors were selected and various exposure situations were set. The distance between the radioactive waste and the receptor, the size of the package, and the speed of vehicle were selected as the main exposure factors. The exposure situation was largely divided into when the radioactive wastes were stationary and when they were passing. And the dose (rate) model of the deterministic overland transportation risk assessment computer code was analyzed. Finally, the deterministic method of the RADTRAN computer code and the RISKIND computer code and the probabilistic method of the MCNP 6 computer code were used to evaluate the exposure dose in various exposure situations during transportation of radioactive wastes. Then we compared and analyzed them. As a result of the evaluation, the tendency of the exposure dose (rate) was similar when the radioactive wastes were stationary and passing. For the same situation, the evaluation results of the RADTRAN computer code were generally more conservative than the results of the RISKIND computer code and the MCNP 6 computer code. The evaluation results of the RISKIND computer code and the MCNP 6 computer code were relatively similar. The results of this study are expected to be used as basic data for establishing the radioactive wastes transportation risk assessment system in Korea in the future.

해상에서는 도로가 아닌 해상 위라는 환경 때문에 음주단속을 실시하여 음주운항을 예방하기엔 어려움이 존재한다. 전 연구에서 음주여부에 따라 변화된 음성을 파악하기 위해 알고리즘을 개발되었으며, 개발된 알고리즘을 이용해 원거리의 있는 선박 운전자 그리고 선원들의 음주 가능성 여부를 파악하는 것이 가능해졌다. 음주 단속이 근거리가 아닌 원거리로 정보를 전송할 수 있는 음성을 통해 이루어진다면 거리가 얼마나 멀리 떨어져 있더라도 실시간으로 측정할 수 있다. VTS 무선 교신 환경을 이용하여 음성을 통신할 때도 무선 환경이 고르지 못할 경우에 클리핑이 일어나 음주가능성 판단율이 저하될 수 있다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 음성신호가 왜곡이 되어 음주 가능성 여부의 판단율 오차를 줄이기 위해 신호를 보상하는 방법을 제안하였다.

최근 환경문제로 인해 보행, 자전거, 대중교통과 같은 친 환경 교통수단에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 보행과 자전거는 경우에 따라 장거리 이동이 불가능하기 때문에 이용범위가 제한적이라는 단점이 있다. 반면에 대중교통은 교통체증이라는 사회적 문제점까지 해결할 수 있는 교통수단이다. 이러한 대중교통은 시간에 따라 운행여부가 달라진다는 특징을 갖고 있다. 하지만 현재 웹상에서 서비스중인 대중교통정보 안내 서비스는 이러한 특징을 반영하지 못하기 때문에 경우에 따라 사용자에게 잘못된 정보를 제공할 수 있다. 이러한 한계점을 해결하고 대중교통의 운행정보를 고려한 정보제공을 위해 본 연구에서는 STP(Space Time Point)데이터 모델을 제안하였다. STP데이터 모델은 객체의 최하위 개념을 포인트 단위로 인식하고 이들을 계층적으로 구성하여 객체를 표현할 수 있으며, 기존의 시공간 데이터 모델과는 달리 시간에 따라 객체정보가 변하는 다양한 동적 공간객체의 구현이 가능하다. 대전지역을 대상으로 대중교통 운행정보로 버스 및 지하철에 대한 STP모델을 설계 및 구축하고 이를 이용하여 동적 경로 안내 기능을 구현하였다. 구현한 경로안내 기능을 통해 대전국립현충원에서 한남대학교로 가는 경로를 시간대별로 탐색해 본 결과 대중교통의 운행에 제한이 발생하는 심야시간에는 운행이 제한되는 노선을 우회하는 경로를 안내함으로써 시간에 따라 서로 다른 경로를 나타내었다. 이는 기존 데이터 모델에서는 제공할 수 없는 결과로 실시간 운행정보를 고려한 경로안내가 가능함을 확인하였다. 이러한 기능은 실시간 교통정보나 통행이력정보등과 같은 다양한 데이터 모델의 적용을 통해 추가적인 기능 확장이 가능할 것으로 기대한다.

New high-speed rail service, the Korea Train Express(KTX), has been beginning service in Korea. We measured the service quality of the Korea Train Express and comparatively analyzed the service quality of domestic flight and express buses which are means of long distance transportation. Furthermore, by using the Kano model, the perception level of the service of customers is not only segmented in groups but also switching barriers are derived. As a result, the customers by group have a difference in the level of their perception. While in both high-speed bullet train service and flights dimensions significantly affect the customer satisfaction and retention excluding a responsiveness dimension, in the Train Express four dimensions(Reliability, Responsiveness, Assurance, Tangibles) with the exception of Empathy which significantly affect the customer satisfaction and retention.
