The practical shiphandlers, such as ship's captain, pilot and mooring master, in charge of the SBM app-roaches and mooring operations of loaded VLCC should have a highly advanced shiphandling skills because of taking advantage of the wind and current from ahead without assistance of big tugboats. But now except some approaching skills in the vicinity of SBM buoy or waiting anchorage we do not have an optimal controlled approaching maneuvers in the entire course of port approaches. Consequently this study presents the optimal SBM approaches to the practical shiphandlers of VLCC and puts to use with effect in the practical operations. The conclusions of this simulation study are as follows : 1) The optimal SBM approaches in combination of Woo's Approach and a large change of heading were presented for the practical shiphandlers, 2) According to simulation of the pilotship the angle of a large change of heading for reducing headway is more than 70 degrees approximately. 3) Applied this optimal approaches to the SBM operations of simulated Port of Ulsan and confirmed the control of ship and the economy of port approaches time.

There is growing interest in CBTC(Communication Based Train Control) system in accordance with the development of the communication technologies. The CBTC system, which adopts the moving block, has advantages such as headway and installation cost reduction compared with the existing system with fixed block. For the moving block system, it is required to locate the trains in real-time. Based on EPLRS(Enhanced Position Location Reporting System) technology, the train position can be provided only through the communication between radios. This paper introduces EPLRS based train detection method and verifies its effect by instance.

A robust adaptive technique for the longitudinal control of a platoon of automated vehicles is presented. A nonlinear model is used to represent the vehicle dynamics of each vehicle within the platoon. The external disturbance such as wind gust and a disturbance term due to engine transmission variations and so on are considered. The state observer is used to avoid direct measurement of the relative velocity or acceleration between the controlled and leading vehicles or the controlled vehicle's acceleration. It is shown that platoon stability can be recovered in operation even if a speed dependent spacing policy is adopted, which incorporates a constant time headway in addition to the constant distance. The simulation results demonstrate excellent tracking even in the presence of disturbances.

For the design and maintenance of highways and road structures, the statistical data are needed for the vehicle, especially heavy truck crossing. So far, static weighing has been used but it needs fixed station, crews, and it takes a lot of time. Also truck mix and headway distances cannot be obtained. Weigh-In-Motion system uses the sensor as a weighing scale and collects the axle weights, axle distances, vehicle types and etc. without stopping or slowing down the vehicle. Objectives of the study is make a determination of WIM Sensor for Implementation of U-Overloaded Vehicle Regulation System.

The external disturbances such as wind gust and a disturbance term due to engine transmission variations and so on are considered. The state observer is used to avoid direct measurement of the relative velocity or acceleration between the controlled and leading vehicles or the controlled vehicles's acceleration. The proposed controller guarantees to recover platoon stability in operation even if a speed dependent spacing policy is adopted, which incorporates a constant time headway in addition to the constant distance. It is shown that the proposed observer is exponentially stable, and the at the robust adaptive controller is stable. The simulation results demonstrate excellent tracking even in the presence of disturbances.

The Intelligent Cruise Control system, ICC, is a driver assisting system for controlling relative speed and distance between two vehicles in the same lane. The ICC may be considered as an extension of a traditional cruise control, not only keeping a fixed speed of the vehicle, but correcting the speed also to that of a slower one ahead. This paper presents a real-time self-tuning fuzzy control algorithm to develop ICC. The self-tuning fuzzy control law is adopted to reduce the effects of nonlinearities of the vehicle and various road environments. In the self-tuning algorithm an interior penalty method is applied to preserve the inherent order of membership functions and is modified as an on-line algorithm for real time application. Via simulations, the performance of the suggested control algorithm is compared with a PID and a fuzzy control without self-tuning. The suggested control algorithm is implemented on PRV III and the results of the test driving on a local road are given.

소요장치량은 컨테이너터미널의 장치능력을 결정짓는 매우 중요한 의사결정 변수이다. 일반적으로 소요장치량은 모선의 배선간격, 장치허용기간, 본선작업시간 등 여러 요인들에 좌우된다. 그러나 지금까지는 이들 요인이 확정적이라는 가정 하에 다양한 방법들을 소요장치량 산정에 적용해왔다. 본 연구는 본선작업 물량이 확률적인 것으로 가정하고 서비스수준을 만족시키는 소요장치량의 산정 방법을 제시했다. 시뮬레이션을 이용한 수치실험은 제시된 방법이 다른 방법들에 비해 확률적 상황에서 더욱 정확한 소요장치량을 산정할 수 있음을 보여주었다.

The goal of the transportation policy of Seoul is to increase the ridership of the subway system by constructing the public transportation network, the subway system. To accomplish this goal, the city of Seoul has been constructing the Metropolitan Subway System. Currently, seven subway lines which connect major areas in Seoul are operating. However, the ridership of subway system was not increased as much as we expected, even though more subway lines have been implemented. It seems that although the length of the subway line was extended, the current way of the subway operation that trains stop at every station cannot satisfy the passenger's need. Thus, we should try to increase the demand by providing quicker services and diversifying the subway operations; changing the point of view is required. This paper introduces the distinctive features of the express subway system and the model for analysing the effects of that system. This paper also presents the results for the feasibility study of the express subway system on the 5th Subway Line and Kyong-Eue Railway Line. Based on the results of the case studies, We can conclude as : First, the express system reduces a total travel time by about $13\%$; in particular, the Kyong-Eue Line is more effective than the subway Line ${\sharp}5$. Second, the shorter headway of express trains increases the time saving effects on subway system although it requests more waiting time to low-speed train passengers. When the service frequency is increased from 5 to 7.5 times/hour, total saved time ratio is about $10\%$ in the Subway Line ${\sharp}5$ and about $18\%$ in the Kyong-Eue Line.

Current methods for evaluating unsignalized intersections, and estimating level-of-service (LOS) is determined from efficiency-based criteria such as little or no delay to very long delays. At present, similar procedures to evaluate intersections using safety-based criteria do not exist. The improvement of sight distances at intersections is the most effective way of improving intersection safety. However, a set of procedures is necessary to account for the limitations in current methodology. Such an approach would build upon such methods, but also account for: deficiencies in the current deterministic solution for the determination of intersection sight distances; opportunity for an accident and severity of an accident; and cost-effectiveness of attaining various levels of sight distances. In this research, a model that estimates the degree of safety at two-way stop-controlled intersections is described. Only crossing maneuvers are considered in this study because accidents caused by the crossing maneuvers are the dominate type among intersection accidents. Monte Carlo methods are used to estimate the hazard at an intersection as a function of roadway features and traffic conditions. Driver`s minimum gap acceptance in the crossing vehicles and headway distribution on the major road are used in the crossing vehicles and headway distribution on the major road are used in the model to simulate the real intersectional maneuvers. Other random variables addressed in the model are: traffic speeds; preception-reaction times of both drivers in the crossing vehicles and drivers in oncoming vehicles on the major road; and vehicles on the major roads. The developed model produces the total number of conflicts per year per vehicle and total potential kinetic energy per year per vehicle dissipated during conflicts as measurements of safety at intersections. Based on the results from the developed simulation model, desirable sight distances for various speeds were determined as 350 feet, 450 feet and 550 feet for 40 mph, 50 mph and 60 mph prevailing speed on the major road, respectively. These values are seven to eight percent less than those values recommended by AASHTO. A safety based level-of-service (LOS) is also developed using the results of the simulation model. When the total number of conflicts per vehicle is less than 0.05 at an intersection, the LOS of the intersection is `A' and when the total number of conflicts per vehicle is larger than 0.25 at an intersection, the LOS is `F'. Similarly, when the total hazard per vehicle is less than 350, 000 1b-ft2/sec2, the LOS is `F'. Once evaluation of the current safety at the intersection is complete, a sensitivity analysis can be done by changing one or more input parameters. This will estimate the benefit in terms of time and budget of hazard reduction based upon improving geometric and traffic characteristics at the intersection. This method will also enable traffic engineers in local governments to generate a priority list of intersection improvement projects.
