PURPOSES : The fundamental diagram provides basic information necessary in the analysis of traffic flow and highway operation. When traffic flow is congested, the density-flow points in the fundamental diagram are widely scattered and move in a stochastic manner. This paper investigates the pattern of density-flow point transitions and identifies car-following behaviors underlying the density-flow transitions. METHODS : From a microscopic analysis of 722 fundamental diagrams of NGSIM data, a total of 20 transition patterns of fundamental diagrams are identified. Prominent features of the transition patterns are explained by the behavior of the leader and follower. RESULTS : It is found out that the average speed and the speed difference between the leader and the follower critically determine the density-flow transition pattern. The density-flow path is very sensitive to the values of vehicle speed and spacing especially at low speed and high density such that most fluctuations in the fundamental diagram in the congested regime is due to the noise of speed and spacing variations. CONCLUSIONS : The result of this study suggests that the average speed, the speed difference between the leader and the follower, and the random variations of speed and spacing are dominant factors that explain the transition patterns of a fundamental diagram.

PURPOSES : To operate more efficient traffic management system, it is utmost important to detect the change in congestion level on a freeway segment rapidly and reliably. This study aims to develop classification method of congestion change type. METHODS: This research proposes two classification methods to capture the change of the congestion level on freeway segments using the dedicated short range communication (DSRC) data and the vehicle detection system (VDS) data. For developing the classification methods, the decision tree models were employed in which the independent variable is the change in congestion level and the covariates are the DSRC and VDS data collected from the freeway segments in Korea. RESULTS : The comparison results show that the decision tree model with DSRC data are better than the decision tree model with VDS data. Specifically, the decision tree model using DSRC data with better fits show approximately 95% accuracies. CONCLUSIONS : It is expected that the congestion change type classified using the decision tree models could play an important role in future freeway traffic management strategy.

This paper describes the design process of floor damping material optimization to reduce structure borne noise. This process uses finite element analysis(FEA) along with experimental techniques to complement each other. The objective of this approach was to develop an optimized damping material application layout and thickness at the initial design stage. The first step is to find the sensitivity areas of vehicle body without damping material applied using FEA. In order to determine the high vibration areas of the floor panel, the velocity was measured using a scanning laser vibrometer from 20 Hz to 300 Hz. To excite the floor panel vibration, shaker was placed at the front suspension attachment point. The second step is the optimization process to determine the light weight solution of damping material. The design guideline of damping material was suggested that the lightweight solution was verified using test result of road noise. Design engineer could efficiently decide the design variable of damping material using parameter analysis results in early design stage.

구간통행속도는 도로의 교통상황을 나타내는 중요한 지표이며, UTIS(Urban Traffic Information System)는 도로의 구간 통행속도를 측정하여 제공하는 대표적인 구간속도 측정시스템이다. 시험운영 결과, 프로브 차량의 불규칙한 주행궤적, 무선통신 장치의 통신범위 등의 요인으로 UTIS 산출 속도의 신뢰도가 저하되는 현상이 일부 나타나고 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 오차를 줄이기 위해 UTIS에 포함된 이상치를 제거하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 제안된 알고리즘을 적용하여 현장실험을 실시한 결과 새로운 이상치 제거 알고리즘이 속도 측정값들 오차백분율의 분산을 기존 알고리즘보다 2배 이상 줄여주는 것으로 분석되었다. 이는 새로운 알고리즘이 이상치를 적절히 처리하여 구간통행속도 산출 정확도를 높여줌을 나타낸다.

본 논문에서는 주행 중 타이어와 노면이 마찰하면서 발생하는 초음파 신호에서 이물질로 인해 야기되는 우성주기를 검출하여 타이어 손상 유무를 판별하는 알고리즘에 대해 연구하였다. 손상된 타이어에서 획득한 초음파 신호의 포락선에 대해 전력스펙트럼을 산출하고 통계적 처리에 의한 임계값을 설정함으로써 우성주기를 판별하는 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 모의실험 결과, 시속 80km/h로 주행 시 초음파 신호의 포락선에 대해 전력스펙트럼의 피크주기 97.6ms에 비해 제안된 알고리즘의 우성주기는 100ms로서 포락선 피크의 평균주기 101.24ms를 기준으로 하였을 때 더 정확한 주기 측정 결과를 보였다.

The purpose of the study is to analyze the planning characteristics of outdoor space in apartment complexes in terms of child-care environment. We selected 8 apartment complexes in Cheongju, within three years from construction, of small and medium-sized apartments ($60-85m^2$) where a large number of families with young children are presumed to reside in. As a result of the study, it was found that whereas the factors that can be quantified such as the floor height differences, the angles of ramps, and the number of the rest facilities are excellent, the qualitative part which cannot be easily quantified such as the location and direction of the rest facility and play materials should be improved a lot. And the following improvements were suggested; separating the pedestrian passage from the vehicle road in the main entrance of the complex, utilizing the piloti for infant caring, making the entrance area of apartment safe for pedestrians from vehicles, reallocating resting spaces, redesigning resting spaces safer to infants, building or reallocating existing booths at the stops of kindergarten buses, redesigning the square safer from vehicles with shades, making it possible for guardians to watch infants in playing field from the resting space, allocating natural environments essential for child development.

Fixed radiation portal monitors (RPMs) deployed at border, seaport, airport and key traffic checkpoints have played an important role in preventing the illicit trafficking and transport of nuclear and radioactive materials. However, the RPM is usually large and heavy and can't easily be moved to different locations. These reasons motivate us to develop a mobile radiation detection system. The objective of this paper is to report our experience on developing the mobile radiation detection system for search and detection of nuclear and radioactive materials during road transport. Field tests to characterize the developed detection system were performed at various speeds and distances between the radioactive isotope (RI) transporting car and the measurement car. Results of measurements and detection limits of our system are described in this paper. The mobile radiation detection system developed should contribute to defending public's health and safety and the environment against nuclear and radiological terrorism by detecting nuclear or radioactive material hidden illegally in a vehicle.

지속적인 터널 건설의 증가는 터널 내 대기질 관리에 대한 필요성을 점증시키고 있어 측정 및 모델 모사를 통한 터널 내 대기질 거동에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 남산1호 터널 입구와 출구의 $CO_2$ 농도차는 250 ppm~400 ppm으로 출구쪽이 높았으며 환기를 안 하는 차량 내부의 농도는 외부에 비해 200 ppm~300 ppm 낮게 측정되었다. 교통량이 적을 시 터널 내 유속은 빨라지며 일정한 농도 구배를 나타내고, 교통량이 증가하면 일정치 않은 농도 구배를 나타내는 것으로 나타났다.

Under driving condition, A vehicle experiences various kinds of loads, which brings on the buckling and fracture of suspension systems. Lower control arm (LCA), which consists of 2 bush joints and 1 ball joint connection, is the one of the most important parts in the suspension system. The bush joints absorb the impact load and reduce the vibration from the road. When analyzing the LCA behavior, it is important to understand the material properties and boundary conditions of bushing systems correctly, because of the nonlinearity characteristics of the rubber. In this paper, in order to predict the large scale deformation of the LCA more precisely, three factors are newly suggested, that is, coupling of bush stiffness between translation and rotation, bush extraction force and maximum rotation angle of ball joint. LCA stiffness is estimated by CAE and component test. Analysis and test results are almost same and the validity of considering three factors in LCA analysis is verified.

교량 바닥판은 대형 차량 및 제설제와 같은 다양한 환경 요인으로 인해 급속히 악화되는 부재이다. 한국에 건설된 교량의 수명이 길어짐에 따라 교량 바닥판의 교체 수요가 증가 할 것으로 예상된다. 다른 국가에서는 프리 캐스트 바닥판을 이용한 급속 교량 건설 기술이 열화된 교량 바닥판의 교체 수요 대응을 위해 적극적으로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 교량 바닥판의 상태평가 데이터를 수집 및 분석하여 교량 바닥판 열화 모델을 제안 하였다. 또한 교량 규모의 관점에서 열화된 교량 바닥판의 미래 대체 수요를 예측하였다.
