The purpose of this study is to estimate the capacity of two-lane freeway work zone blocking one lane using traffic flow models of each vehicle-type. Firstly, three traffic flow models of three different vehicle-types were developed using the data collected from each at the beginning and the ending point of the work zone. For each model, the maximum flow rate of three vehicle-types were calculated respectively. Maximum flow rate at the work zone was recalculated using passenger car equivalent value and percentage of vehicle-type. Secondly, traffic flow model using passenger car equivalent volume data was developed using the data collected from each at the beginning and the ending point of the work zone. Maximum flow rate for the work zone was calculated along. Two values of maximum flow rates through the work zone were compared and evaluated as the capacity of the work zone. This study found that the maximum flow rate of the work zone at the beginning point was less than that at the ending point because of impedance such as lane changing behaviors before entering the work zone. The capacity of two-lane freeway work zone blocking one lane was estimated 1,800pcphpl.

This paper aims to estimate work zone base capacity by the number of lanes for urban freeway. To do this, data were collected from the field survey and the database system maintained by traffic control center, and analyzed with four different methods such as the average maximum observation flow rate, headway, regression analysis, and parameter inspection. The work zone base capacity for urban freeway is estimated based on the average maximum observation flow rate and headway method, which are more reliable methods compared to others. The average capacity is 1,650pcphpl when the design speed is 80km/h. The capacity of four lanes one-way work zones was about 1,700pcphpl, while one of 2 lanes one-way work zones was about 1,600pcphpl. The capacity reduction rates for each are 0.15 and 0.2, respectively. The smaller the number of lane is, the more base capacity is reduced. For verification of results, we estimate the capacity by simulation analysis using PARAMICS, and compare with analytical results by a statistical method. This research can be used for efficient and systemic management of work zone in the urban freeway.

The objective of this study is to estimate traffic capacity based on the heavy-vehicle ratio in a two-lane freeway work zone where one lane is blocked by construction. For this, closed circuit television (CCTV) video data of the freeway work zone was collected, and the congestion at an upstream point was observed. The traffic volume at a downstream point was analyzed after a bottleneck was created by the blockage due to the upstream congestion. A distribution model was estimated using observed-time headway, and the road capacity was analyzed using a goodness-of-fit test. Through this process, the general capacity and an equation for capacity based on the heavy-vehicle ratio passing through the work zone were presented. Capacity was estimated to be 1,181~1,422 passenger cars per hour per lane (pcphpl) at Yeongdong, and 1,475~1,589pcphpl at Jungbu Naeryuk. As the ratio of heavy vehicles increased, capacity gradually decreased. These findings can contribute to the proper capacity estimation and efficient traffic operation and management for two-lane freeway work zones that block one lane due to a work zone.

프로그래밍 언어로 개발된 프로그램들은 최종 사용자 입장에서 입력과 출력이 불편하다. 또한, 모의 결과를 분석하기 위하여 그래프를 작성하는 소프트웨어를 이용하면 시간이 오래 걸린다. 본 연구에서는 기 개발된 용수 감량공급 기준곡선을 반영한 단일 댐 모의 운영 모형을 최종 사용자가 쉽게 활용할 수 있도록 사용자 편의 환경을 개발한 것에 대해 소개하고자 한다. 용수 감량공급 기준곡선을 반영한 단일 댐 모의 운영의 사용자 편의 환경은 미국의 GoldSim Technology Group에서 개발한 GoldSim을 이용하여 개발하였다. 개발된 사용자 편의 환경에는 단일 댐 모의 운영에 필요한 여러 입력 자료를 쉽게 입력할 수 있도록 하였다. 단일 댐 모의 운영 입력 자료에는 월별 기본계획공급량, 가뭄 단계별 용수 감량공급 비율, 과거 유입량 시계열, 갈수 빈도 유입량 시계열, 가뭄 단계별 감량공급 실행 저수량, 초기 저수량, 저수용량 등이 있다. 개발된 모형의 초기값은 합천댐의 자료가 입력되어 있으나, 입력자료를 변경하여 다른 다목적댐의 모의 운영에 활용이 가능하다. 단일 댐 모의 운영 결과로서 모의 기간 내 발생한 용수별 용수 공급 부족량과 감량공급 일수를 확인가능하다. 또한, 단일 댐 모의 운영 결과를 다양한 그래프로 출력 할 수 있다. 출력 가능한 시계열 그래프는 사용자가 입력한 용수 감량공급 기준곡선, 모의 시 사용한 유입량 시계열, 가뭄 단계, 용수 공급량, 저수량이다. 연구의 사례와 같이 GoldSim을 활용하면 연구개발의 편의 환경을 별도의 편의 환경 개발자를 거치지안고 과학 기술자가 직접 개발할 수 있다.
