○ ○ tunnel that is located at Iksan - Jangsu freeway ○ ○, has collapsed during construction at the valley with shallow depth. Although, the site investigations, such as TSP, drilling exploration and so of indicated the presence of discontinuities in this section. The RMR was upgraded and the construction were carried out because that not only actual rock qualities were relatively good during construction but also the tunnel foe was stabilized. However, the tunnel was collapsed at the same time blasting of full face, and surface and underground water was infiltrated due to the settlement of the upper part of the tunnel face. To restore the collapsed section, 3-d tunnel stability analysis was performed and suitable reinforcement methods were chosen. The cavity of the upper tunnel face was stabilized by means of UAM and ALC injection. And the settlement was restored using L.W grouting method.

This research analyzed the changes of drivers' visual workload with beta wave of bionic signals from brain's occipital lobe from entrance to exit section of the Yuksimnyeong tunnel which is 3.1km long in Daejeon-Tongyeong section of Jungbu expressway. There are 10 subjects who Participate our experiments and the results are as follows. First. the drivers' visual workload is higher about 41% in entrance section of the tunnel than 200m in advance of the section of the tunnel. Second, it is higher than 200m in advance of the section of the tunnel by 34.5% that the value of the drivers' visual workload who is driving in the tunnel. Third, as a result of analyzing the tunnel into 200m unit section, it is statistically different from other sections' at the 1.0km and 2.4km section from the entrance of the tunnel. If drivers sustain average visual workload for safe driving in very long tunnel, it's not desirable environment that drivers' visual workload goes under the average workload. Therefore, it would be the section where drivers who is driving in tunnel could cause a traffic accident.

터널의 경우 도로교통용량이 일반구간에 비해 감소하는 것으로 나타나고 있다. 그러나 연속되는 터널의 경우에 있어 도로교통용량감소에 대한 연구는 아직 이루어지지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 고속도로의 2지점에서 연속되는 터널의 도로교통용량의 감소특성을 이용한 터널보정계수를 산정하여 다음과 같은 결과를 도출하였다. (1) 터널을 통과하는 경우의 도로교통용량은 통과전보다 감소하는 것을 알 수 있으며, 연속되는 터널을 통과하는 경우 감소량은 이보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. (2) 터널보정계수$(f_{tu})$를 도출한 결과 하나의 터널을 통과하는 경우의 터널보정계수$(f_{tu1})$는 0.95, 연속되는 터널을 통과하는 경우의 터널보정 계수$(f_{tu2})$는 0.90으로 산정되었다.

본 연구의 목적은 GIS 공간분석을 이용하여 음영에 따른 노면결빙예상구간을 정량적으로 평가하는데 있다 산악지역의 도로는 절토 및 터널구간이 많아서 겨울철에는 결빙구간이 발생될 우려가 있으며, 이는 교통 안전사고를 크게 야기시킬 수 있다. 따라서 도로의 기본설계에서부터 각 구간에서의 일조 환경 및 노면결빙예상구간을 정량적으로 정확하게 예측할 수 있는 분석이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 동해고속도로 중 약 29km구간에 대하여 3차원 모델링, 일조 시뮬레이션, 지오데이터베이스 구축, GIS 중첩 기능에 의한 공간분석을 통해 노면결빙 예상구간을 추출할 수 있었다. 연구결과, GIS를 이용할 경우 기상조건 별로 도로의 일조영향에 따른 노면결빙 예상구간을 정량적으로 추출할 수 있었으며, 연구대상지역 중 상당한 구간이 결빙의 위험에 노출되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 GIS를 이용한 렌더링 기법이 기존의 음영기복 방법보다 정확하며, 3차원 상에서 그림자의 변화를 시각적으로 판단할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 향후 본 논문이 도로관련 법제도상의 노면결빙구간에 대한 규정을 제정하는데 크게 이바지할 수 있을 것으로 생각되며, 도로 설치 구조물의 배치 및 도로포장의 종류 등을 고려한 추가적인 음영구간추출 연구가 필요하다고 판단된다.

This thesis is based on the speed variations which are observed both in a sing1e tunnel and a continuous tunnel. Kumdae II tunnel and Chiak I tunnel of Jungang Expressway are selected in order to analyze the characteristics of speed variations according to tunnel intervals I place importance on the computation of tunnel intervals according to the speed variations. there's a summary of the results. The results of the study reveal that speed changes occur both on 1km ahead of tunnel and within the tunnel. The speed change amounts to 7.1km/hr(6.7%) on these survey Points 2.7km/hr (2.9%) on access points, and from -3.6km/hr (-3.8%) to, +4.1km/hr(+4.7%) irregularly on egress points. The magnitude of speed chance appears small on the survey points where an interval of tunnel is short whereas the speed chance turn out to be rather significant on the points where the tunnel interval is long. The analysis of tunnel distances using multiple regression models shows that the appropriate tunnel distance turns out to be 732m. The distance of 732m seem to be providing a fecundation for uniform traffic flow in continuous tunnel conditions.

The purpose of this study is to develop a methodology to select a cluster of night traffic accidents using CRP (Continuous Risk Profile) analysis. the other purpose of this study is to present the characteristics of the traffic accident cluster section selected at night using CRP analysis. The CRP analysis was performed considering traffic volume of target routes through traffic accident data. In addition, variables were set according to the freeway sections. the method of subtracting the daytime CRP from the nighttime CRP was used to analyze the nighttime traffic accident. As a result, Using the CRP analysis, the sections of hotspot were identified and plotted based on traffic accidents. Also, the sections where traffic accidents are frequent were those where IC or Tunnels were installed, and there was a deviation from the general section. In conclusion, CRP analysis could be used to calculate the frequent section of specialized traffic accidents at night, and it was selected as a point in need of improvement due to the frequent occurrence of specialized traffic accidents at night in the section where IC or tunnel facilities are installed. In addition, it is inferred that the number of specialized traffic accidents at night in the section where IC or tunnel facilities are installed is a factor in the problem of night visibility due to lighting facilities.

Density is applied both three major macroscopic traffic variables (traffic volume, speed, and density) and two measures of effectiveness (MOE) for level of service (LOS) on highway (density and V/C). Especially, it is known for the most accurate MOE on evaluating the LOS of highway. Despite such importance, there is a lack of study on density relatively than other variables for its difficulty of measurement. Existing density estimation methods have some limitations such as density values of same traffic flow vary with collecting time. In this study, we researched actual density measuring method with panoramic image, after each CCTV images in the Sapaesan Tunnel on Seoul Ring Expressway are matched into one panoramic image. Analysis through the Central Limit Theorem shows that density of 24 1 km-images, which means 24 second, applies traffic situation well. That is to say that reasonable density value regardless of collecting time, and practical density which represents actual traffic flow can be taken in case of measuring density by suggested collecting cycle.

Longitudinal tunnels are defined as tunnels with length of over 1km. Because of Korea's topographical conditions and as safety measures for linear design, many tunnels are inevitably being constructed in Korea. The number of longitudinal tunnels constructed on expressways amounted to 104 as of the end of 2010 with a total length of 192km. Given the increasing demand for tunnels and the increasing length of tunnels, a safety evaluation of longitudinal tunnels needs to be conducted. As such, this study selected design elements, transportation environment and delineation system as elements to check and tried to determine factors influencing road crashes. For this, tunnels have been classified based on history of crashes; ones with crashes and ones without crashes and statistically meaningful explanatory variables were selected. By using these variables, a logit model was development in order to better grasp the factors that directly and strongly influence crashes. The result, related to crashes as well as the analysis were utility tunnel interior materials of driving lane and passing lane, which are related to driver's visibility, lateral width widening to consolidate space in a tunnel, and annual average daily traffic (AADT) per lane. These results may be used in the future as analysis indicators when drawing up plans to prevent crashes in longitudinal tunnels.

In Korea, 70% of the land is mountainous and structures occupy a high proportion in railway and road construction. In particular, in recent years, the construction of high-speed railways and highways for high-speed driving is rapidly increasing. At the same time, the construction of tunnels is also increasing. The number of tunnel construction cases in which long-term deformation occurs after tunnel excavation is completed is increasing. The stability of these tunnel structures depends entirely on the characteristics of the rock surrounding the tunnel excavation. In the case of pyroclastic rock, which is the subject of this study, it is generally vulnerable to weathering and has a characteristic that its strength decreases over a long period of time. Tunnel design and construction planning considering the strength characteristics of pyroclastic rocks are essential. This study analyzed the cases of over-deformation that occurred at the tunnel site in the pyroclastic section. Based on this study, a plan for tunnel design and construction management in an area where pyroclastic rock exist in the future is presented.
