In this study, the purpose behind this research is to propose index to be used for classification of functional the urban streets and to select the feasible length of special management link by the index. This special management link help decision makers found a transportation policy. In order to perform functional classification, index such as average traveled distance, link VKT and VKT per length-lane are use at the study. Average traveled distance index is average traveled distance divided by length of Path k and VKT per length-lane is trip volume characteristic considering lanes and length of Path k. Special management links on which major part of the vehicle are selected with using Path-VKT which represents how many long-distance touring vehicles are on the arterial road. The selection of special management links are performed with network composed of 14 paths (arterial roads) in seoul The total distance of special management links resulted from the above analysis is 141km(35.0% of the whole paths length) and total VKT of the special management links is 4,152,475 VKT(45.2% of the whole paths VKT)

Provision of Passing Sight Distance (PSD) is an important component in two-lane highway design and has a critical impact on capacity of highway and safety of drivers. Many models have been developed to estimate PSD reasonably. However, each of them has a number of shortcomings for reflecting the real traffic conditions. This paper introduces a revised model that reflects the characteristics of the passing maneuver. The changes in passing sight distances under different assumptions about acceleration and vehicle length, which are related to vehicle types, are presented. The results obtained by the revised model are compared with those obtained from the existing models. There is an important link between geometric design decisions which determine the available sight distance and the quality of service which the road provides. In this paper, we examine one aspect of this relationship. That is to determine whether the passing sight distance is provided by improving horizontal alignment for a specific roadway section or passing may be restricted to save the road construction cost. To do so, a simple method for estimating traffic delay in no-passing is introduced.

We are going to build a direct railway line between Europe and Asia by connecting North-South line. It can reduce a transportation distance by above 10,000km. But problems of TSR which is most important line have been exposed such as backward facilities and operations. In this paper we find out problems of TSR in detail and show those improvements.

The paper discusses the problem of finding the Origin-Destination(O-D) shortest paths in internodal transportation networks with time-schedule constraints. The shortest path problem on the internodal transportation network is concerned with finding a path with minimum distance, time, or cost from an origin to a destination using all possible transportation modalities. The time-schedule constraint requires that the departure time to travel from a transfer station to another node takes place only at one of pre-specified departure times. The scheduled departure times at the transfer station are the times when the passengers are allowed to leave the station to another node using the relative transportation modality. Therefore, the total time of a path in an internodal transportation network subject to time-schedule constraints includes traveling time and transfer waiting time. In this paper, a genetic algorithm (GA) approach is developed to deal with this problem. The effectiveness of the GA approach is evaluated using several test problems.

This paper describes an error synchronization running on IP-USN gateway software stack for transportation safety service. This system consists of an TS_EDA, and TS_ESA. TS_EDA is an agent that detects an error for multimedia distance system based on IP-USN gateway software stack environment. TS_ESA is an agent that is an error synchronization system for multimedia distance control based on IP-USN gateway software stack environment. From the perspective of multimedia collaborative environment of IP-USN gateway software stack for transportation safety service, an error application becomes another interactive presentation error is synchronized with participants engaged in a cooperative work.

The heat transportation from a complex of industry to a rural area needs more efficient method because the distance between them is usually more than 10km. Conventional heat transportation using steam or hot water via pipe line has limits in transportation distance (about 3-5 km) because of the heat loss and frictional loss in the pipe line. Metal hydride can absorb or discharge hydrogen through exothermic and endothermic reaction. After releasing hydrogen from metal hydride with heatings by waste heat from industry we can transport this hydrogen to the rural area via pipe line. In the urban areas other metal hydride reacts with this hydrogen and produces heat for heating. Cool heat is also obtained if it is possible to use metal hydride with low reaction temperature. So metal hydride can be used as a media for transportation, storage of heat. Some problems of the heat transportation using metal hydrides, and the example of heat transportation system were discussed.

In this paper hi-criterion quadratic fractional generalized solid transportation problem is studied. An algorithm is developed to obtain the time-cost trade-off pairs and hence identifies the optimum trade-off pairs giving the equal priority to both time and cost. A numerical example is illustrated to support the algorithm.

Hub-and-spoke transportation network is a powerful and useful network structure that takes full advantage of economies of scale on routes between hubs. In recent studies, the network structure is extended to hybrid hub-andspoke that allows direct transportation between spokes. In this study, we considered more extended network structure which is called hybrid multiple hub-and-spoke that has multiple hubs and allows direct transportation between spokes. We developed a mathematical optimization model for automotive service parts transportation planning under hybrid multiple hub-and-spoke network structure. The model suggests a long-term transportation route planning and a short-term vehicle assignment planning. The model is verified by simulation and validated in real world application to Hyundai Mobis automotive service parts transportation planning. From the simulation result, the model reduced the transportation cost about 24.7%, the total distance about 6.8% and the CO2 emissions about 8.8%. In real world application for 6 months from July to December 2010, the model reduced the transportation cost about 9.1% by changing the long-term transportation route without daily vehicle assignment planning.

There is a high potentiality of large traffic accident due to the dense fog when road is developed along the coast or river. The establishment of national level control system against the fog is necessary because the accident due to the creation of fog has a high fatality ratio than other weather conditions. The selection method for the frequent foggy area on highway was suggested to control the fog on the highway effectively because the establishment of the countermeasure against the fog in every range in highway is difficult practically. 44 ranges where the fog control is necessary throughout the year and the 45 ranges where the control is necessary in specific months were selected from the result of application of the weighted value on each visible distance data except the fog with beyond 250 m visible distance which does not affect on the safe driving out of the surveyedjsh fog visible distances. The preferential fog control countermeasure shall be provided to prevent the traffic accident and to reduce the severeness of the accident in case of fog creation for 89 ranges which were selected for frequent foggy area in highway.
