PURPOSES : It is desirable for buses to be parallel to the face of the bus shelter at a bus stop. In this way, passengers can safely use the buses without moving into the vehicle area. The study was a review of the current bus bay geometric guidelines, to determine whether they lead buses to stop parallel to the face of the bus shelter by analyzing vehicle trajectory. METHODS : A commercial software program for vehicle trajectory analysis was used under our assumptions about bus dimensions and geometric values. The final position of the bus was analyzed for multiple trajectory simulations, reflecting various geometric alternatives. RESULTS : Within the scope of the study, we concluded that the current design guidelines need to be revised by the design values suggested by the study. CONCLUSIONS : The results of the study suggested alternative design values for bus bay geometry, based on the assumption that buses should be parallel to the face of the bus shelter in order to prevent passengers from moving into the vehicle area.

The influence of bus stops near signalized intersections is one of the important factors which cannot be negligible in the analysis of the capacity of signalized intersections. Absence of consideration of bus bay can reduce capacity and increase the time that the stop of buses block other traveling vehicles. This influence is reflected by the bus blockage adjustment factor in KHCM, but the factor does not consider the course of each bus passing the intersection. Particularly, left turn buses have more influence on the capacity than the other buses and require the minimum length of the road for lane changes. All the existing criteria can apply only to arterial roads on which mostly traffic flows are continuous. And the criteria. which can determine the optimum location and the minimum distance between a signalized intersection and a bus bay, is not prepared and the related study is insufficient. Therefore, a theoretical formula is derived in this study being based on the theories which are avaliable to apply to the situation of signalized intersections.

기존의 IEC 61850 표준 적용 국내 디지털변전소는 Station 레벨에 한정되어 구축되어 왔다. 향후 구축될 Process 레벨을 포함한 풀(Full) 디지털 변전소 디지털화는 디지털변전소 운전에 있어 중요하고 긴급한 신호인 Process bus를 통한 SV와 GOOSE신호의 전송으로 이루어지고 있다. Process bus를 활용한 배전선로 보호용 통합 IED는 GIS 등 변전소 전력설비로부터 전압과 전류 값을 MU(Merging Unit)를 통해 공급받아 각 구간의 Bay 혹은 Bank단위로 통합적인 보호 기능을 수행하고, 주 IED와 예비 IED가 서로의 상태를 상호 감시하여 보호기능의 이중화를 이루어야 하고, Sampled Value를 처리하기 위한 정밀한 시각동기화 기능을 갖추어야 한다. 만약, Process bus 시스템의 문제로 인해, 지연과 손실이 발생한다면 변전소 보호 제어에 영향을 줄 수 있으므로 Process bus를 디지털변전소에 적용하기 위해서는 Process bus 기반의 네트워크시스템에 연결된 MU와 IED가 송수신하는 SV와 GOOSE를 손실과 지연없이 전송할 수 있는지를 분석해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 디지털변전소 네트워크 시뮬레이션 시험을 통해, 배전선로용 통합 IED의 성능검증을 위해 Process bus 네트워크 시스템을 설계하고 시뮬레이션 시험을 수행하여 이를 통해 향후 국내의 Process bus 디지털변전시스템 구축을 위한 효과적인 네트워크 시스템 설계방법을 제시하고자 한다.

The Seoul metropolitan government introduced the bus information systems, bus rapid transit to increase travel speed and punctuality but still suffer from insufficiency. This paper delivers a study verifying the external factors at near the bus stops. The dependent variable was set to the standard deviation of (1) travel time and (2) travel time to and from the bus stop in this study. The independent variables were set to (1) the number of routes, (2) traffic volume by bus type, (3) the number of bus bays, (4) the possibility of passing, (5) the distance to crosswalks and intersections, and (5) the presence of residential road. The results showed that the most significant factors included the link section speed, number of bus bay, distance to crosswalk, and the possibility of passing.

Digital substation refers to a substation that digitizes functions and communication methods of power facilities such as monitoring, measuring, control, protection, and operation based on IEC 61850, an international standard for the purpose of intelligent power grids. Based on the intelligent operating system, efficient monitoring and control of power facilities is possible, and automatic recovery function and remote control are possible in the event of an accident, enabling rapid power failure recovery. With the development of digital technology and the expansion of the introduction of eco-friendly renewable energy and electric vehicles, the spread of direct current distribution systems is expected to expand. MVDC is a system that utilizes direct current lines with voltage levels and transmission capacities between HVDCs applied to conventional transmission systems and LVDCs from consumers. Converting existing lines in substations, where most power equipment is alternating current centric, to direct current lines will reduce transmission losses and ensure greater current capacity. The process bus of a digital substation is a communication network consisting of communication equipment such as Ethernet switches that connect installed devices between bay level and process level. For MVDC linkage to existing digital substations, the process level was divided into two buses: AC and DC, and a system that can be comprehensively managed in conjunction with diagnostic IEDs as well as surveillance and control was proposed.
