Purpose: The purpose of this study is to study how to activate the use of public transportation by identifying the main factors that reduce the use of public transportation due to external influences such as COVID-19 infectious diseases. Method: This study analyzed the connection between the traffic behavior and the characteristics of public transportation use in the metropolitan area changed by COVID-19 with COVID-19 indicators, and analyzed social and environmental factors affecting traffic. Results: It was analyzed that the traffic behavior in the metropolitan area moves from commercial areas to tourist resort areas, the number of COVID-19 deaths affects the use of public transportation, and the lower the deviation between population density, agricultural and forestry areas, and gender ratios due to social and environmental factors, the more significant differences are shown. Conclusion: In the future, it will be able to be activated as a basic analysis model for revitalizing the city's transportation system, regional bases, and various social and economic indicators, such as quarantine of public transportation and social distancing, and can be used as basic data for establishing public transport policy directions according to major influencing factors.

Mode choice behavior is associated with travelers' latent behavior that is an unobservable preference to travel behavior or mode characteristics. This paper specifically addresses the problem of unobservable factors, that is latent behavior, in mode choice models. Consideration of latent behavior in mode choice models reduces the errors that come from unobservable factors. In this study, the authors defined the latent variables that mean a quantitative latent behavior factors, and developed the combined RP/SP model with latent variables using the mode choice behavior survey data. The data has traveler's revealed preference of existent modes along the Han River and stated preference of new water transit on the Han River. Also, The data has travelers' latent behavior. Latent variables were defined by factor analysis using the latent behaviour data. In conclusion, it is significant that the relationship between traveler's latent behavior and mode choice behavior. In addition, the goodness-of-fit of the mode choice models with latent variables are better than the model without latent variables.

The two characteristics of two-lane-and-two-way traffic flow are platoon and overtaking triggered by low-speed vehicle. It is crucial to develop a robust model which simultaneously generates the behaviors of platoon by low-speed vehicle and overtaking using opposite lane. Hence, a microscopic two-lane and two-way vehicle model was introduced (B. Yoon, 2011), which is based on CA (Cellular Automata) which is one of discrete time-space models, in Korea. While the model very reasonably explains the behaviour of overtaking low-speed vehicle in stable traffic flow below critical density, it has shortcomings to the overtaking process in unstable traffic flow above the critical density. Therefore, the objective of this study is to develope a vehicle model to more realistically explain overtaking process in unstable traffic flow state based on the model developed in the previous study. The experimental results revealed that the car-following model robustly generates the various macroscopic relationships of traffic flow generating stop-and-go traffic flow and the overtaking model reasonably explains the behaviors of overtaking under the conditions of both opposite traffic flow and stochastic parameter to consider overtaking in unstable traffic flow state. The vehicle model presented in this study can be expected to be utilized for the analysis of two-lane-and-two-way traffic flows more realistically than before.

Transportation system improved with rapid economic growth has helped human being a lot. However, the system has been also created social problems. The fast increasing auto ownership has not only increased transportation accidents but decreased air quality rapidly. One of the serious problems in transportation is that transportation policies have disregarded human factor, especially pedestrian environment. This research has developed microscopic pedestrian simulation with Netlogo. Netlogo is a very useful program for simulating complex systems such as pedestrian movements. The simulated pedestrian movements has been compared with actual surveyed pedestrian movements on a sidewalk. The comparison has been showed that the simulation program can be used for analyzing various pedestrian environments. Also, the impacts of bollard on the sidewalks have been analyed with the simulation program.

서울과 일산 신도시의 출근통행 교통수단 선택모형을 구축하고, 두 도시간 수단선택형태를 분석.비교하였다. 분석을 위한 자료로는 1996년 서울시에서 수행한 가구통행실태조사자료를 이용하였으며, 수단선택모형으로는 다항로짓모형을 사용하였다. 두 지역 출근통행 수단선택모형의 모형구조상의 차이 및 모형의 지역간 이전가능성을 분석하였고, 출근통행의 시간가치 및 탄력성을 분석하고 비교하였다. 통계적 검증의 결과 출근통행의 수단선택에 있어서, 모형구조적 측면에서나 선택행태적 측면에서 수단선택모형의 두 도시간 이전은 불가능한 것으로 나타났다. 서울의 출근통행의 시간가치가 일산보다 전반적으로 큰 것으로 분석되었고, 특히 서울의 경우, 택시이용자의 시간가치가 자가용 이용자의 시간가치보다 큰 것으로 나타났다. 두 도시 모두 통행시간에 대한 탄력성 통행비용에 대한 탄력성보다 전반적으로 크며, 버스와 지하철간의 통행시간에 대한 교차탄력성이 매유 높은 것으로 분석되었다.

Various studies have been conducted using microtraffic simulation (VISSIM) to analyze the safety of traffic flow when introducing autonomous vehicles. However, no studies have analyzed traffic safety in mixed traffic while considering the driving behavior of general vehicles as a parameter in VISSIM. Therefore, the aim of this study was to optimize the input variables of VISSIM for non-autonomous vehicles through genetic algorithms to obtain realistic behavior. A traffic safety analysis was then performed according to the penetration rate of autonomous vehicles. In a 640 meter section of US highway I-101, the number of conflicts was analyzed when the trailing vehicle was a non-autonomous vehicle. The total number of conflicts increased until the proportion of autonomous vehicles exceeded 20%, and the number of conflicts decreased continuously after exceeding 20%. The number of conflicts between non-autonomous vehicles and autonomous vehicles increased with proportions of autonomous vehicles of up to 60%. However, there was a limitation in that the driving behavior of autonomous vehicles was based on the results of the literature and did not represent actual driving behavior. Therefore, for a more accurate analysis, future studies should reflect the actual driving behavior of autonomous vehicles.

1960년 초부터 토지이용과 교통의 상관관계를 계량적으로 설명하고자 하는 연구가 진행되어 왔다. 이러한 연구는 경제이론을 배경으로 하여 개발된 McKinnon-Type 모형과 Mills-Type 모형, 그리고 경제학이 반영되어있지 않은 Lowry-Type 모형으로 크게 대별할 수 있다. 이제까지의 이러한 연구는 각 가정의 주거입지선정과 직장선정에 있어서 취향의 다양성(taste heterogeneity)을 고려하여 있지않고 있어 본 연구에서는 로짓모형을 이용하여 Alonso(1964) 모형을 더욱 발전시켜 토지이용-교통의 일반균형 모형(general equilibrium model)을 개발하였다. 이 통계적 토지이용-교통모형은 완전 경쟁하의 일반균형상태에서 주택임대료, 노동력임금, 상품가격이 내생적으로 산출되어지며, 동시에 효율적인 교통체계하에서 일반균형상태의 생산량과 생산부지 그리고 주거수와 주거부지가 어떻게 분배되는지를 내생적으로 결정한다. 이논문에서 효율적인 교통체계라함은 해당 죤에서 도로에 사용된 토지의 임대료가 교통체증비용의 전통행량에 대한 합과 동일하도록 하는 최적교통체증정도(optimal congestion level)을 유지할 수 있는 도로체계를 뜻한다. 또한 비효율적 교통체계하에서는 토지 이용에 왜곡이 생겨서 전체적 비용의 상승으로 각 국민 혹은 각 주민이 생활에서 얻을 수 있는 효용가치가 떨어짐을 분석할 수도 있다.
