This paper presents a technique to generate road surface profiles in a spatial domain using a power spectral density function. A single track power spectral density function is proposed to describe a road surface profile, which is also applicable for multi-track vehicle response analysis. The roads in lateral direction makes the relation between the coherence of the lateral tracks. The derived road surfaces are compared to ISO(International Organization for Standardization) standards. Generated road profiles are in good agreements with the target road PSD shape and measured coherence relation.

The car-following model is one of core models in Advanced Vehicle & Highway Systems (AVHS). The car-following model has been developed in aspects such as human factor and reduction error rates. However, the consideration of safety depending on weather condition has not been completed yet. In this paper, therefore, changes of driving condition for car-following due to different road condition were dealt with, and optimal safety distance corresponding to road condition such as dry, wet and snowy were computed. The GMIT(GM Model with Instantaneous T) model was picked over for simulation of adaptive cruise control applied the suggested optimal safety distance. As the results, the 1.7 times longer safety distance was required for wet road condition than dry road condition, and the 5.6 times longer safety distance was required for snowy road condition.

Recently various low-noise-pavement methods have been developed. Since tire/pavement noise is the major source of traffic noise at high speed condition, the core-technology of low-noise pavement is to produce the road surface texture that can reduce tire/pavement noise. The difficulties in the development of the low-noise pavements are high costs and time to construct test roads, since vehicles have to travel on the test roads to evaluate the noise from a particular condition of pavement surface. Tire/Pavement Noise Simulator were developed to overcome those difficulties and the reliability of developed Tire/Pavement Noise Simulator are investigated based on the simulating and measuring the noise of tire-tined concrete pavement and tire-non tined concrete pavement.

Skid Resistance is a index to represent the friction between tire and road surface, which influences driving safety. Skid resistance varies with the conditions of tire, abrasion of road surface, vehicle speed, drying, wet and freezing condition of road surfaces. Especially, freezing occurs when temperature drops below $0^{\circ}C$ followed by snow or rain causes decrease of skid resistance. To recover the decreased skid resistance deicing work is applied. As a results of deicing works, freezing condition is changed into wet condition. However the wet road surfaces containing the remaining deicings agents may not show the skid resistance of normal wet condition. In this study, skid resistances in the condition of freezing, deicing process and deicing agents remained after snow-removal are evaluated. The test results, skid resistance recover quickly when Pre-wetted salt spreading and NaCl was used as deicing method. Skid resistance of Deicing agents remained on the road surface showed that concrete is higher than asphalt. superior effect. Recovery rate of skid resistance by comparison wet condition is 54~80%.

본 연구는 트랙터 주행노면의 토양 특성이 트랙터 승차진동에 미치는 영향을 분석하는 것을 목표로 하였다. 여러 토양조건에서 실제 트랙터 주행실험을 진행하는 것은 어렵기 때문에, 상용 CAE 프로그램을 이용하여 트랙터를 모델링하고 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 이를 통해 여러 토양조건에 따른 승차진동의 특성을 비교, 분석하였다. 모델의 유의성은 트랙터 아스팔트 주행실험을 통해 진동데이터를 획득하고 실측 진동 데이터와 시뮬레이션을 통해 얻어진 진동 데이터를 분석해 검토하였다. 이 때, 노면 토양의 특성에 따라서 트랙터가 장애물을 만났을 때 순간적인 진동 특성을 분석하기 위해서 트랙터 주행 노면을 사인범퍼(sine-bumper) 노면으로 설정하고 주행실험 및 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 본 연구에서는 강체 노면, Heavy clay, North Gower Clay Loam 토양, Grenvile Loam 토양의 네 가지 노면 조건을 분석하였다. 분석 결과 침하가 발생하지 않는 강체 노면보다 침하가 발생하는 세 가지 토양 조건에서 장애물에 따른 순간적인 진동이 더 크게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 다만 승차진동이 토양 파라미터와 단순히 선형적인 관계만을 보이는 것은 아니라는 것도 확인할 수 있었다. 이 후, North Gower Clay Loam 토양 조건에서 트랙터 속도에 따른 시뮬레이션 진행 결과를 분석하였을 때, 토양 침하가 발생하는 토양 조건에서도 속도가 증가함에 따라서 진동 크기가 증가하는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Distress data, IRI, etc. are important factors in the evaluation of pavement condition. Recently, the need to consider tire-pavement noise in PMS (pavement management system) is raised. Generally, tire-pavement noise highly depends on the characteristics of pavement texture. Therefore, estimation of texture characteristics may give useful information to predict tire-pavement noise. Measurement of MPD (Mean Profile Depth) by using PLP (Portable Laser Profiler) provide very fast. The texture characteristics by means of MPD can be in a short time. hence, It can be a good alternative to give noise information, if MPD and tire-pavement noise have robust relationship. In this study, MPD and tire-pavement noise were simultaneously collected on the number of asphalt section to evaluate the tire-pavement noise due to the pavement texture characteristics. A set of statistical analysis was performed to propose relationship between tire-pavement noise and MPD for asphalt concrete pavement.

노면배수 시설의 설계를 위하여 부등류 해석을 기반으로 한 설계모형을 수립하고 등류 해석을 기반으로 한 설계결과와 비교하였다. 노면배수시설을 설계하기 위해서는 지속시간을 가정하여 설계강우를 결정하고 설계변수인 유출구 간격을 가정하여, 호우에 응답하여 발생하는 홍수의 도달시간이 가정된 지속시간과 유사할 때까지 계산을 반복하여 유출구 간격을 결정한다. 부등류 해석에 의한 수로 흐름 해석은 수로 양단에 유출구를 갖는 수로의 분수계의 위치를 결정하는 과정과 발생하는 최대수심이 허용수심을 초과하지 않도록 수로길이를 산정하는 과정을 포함하므로 등류 해석에 비해 계산과정이 복잡하게 된다. 가상의 노면배수 체계를 설정하고 다양한 수로경사에 대해 노면배수 설계모형을 적용한 결과, 등류해석의 경우 유출구 간격은 수로경사가 증가할수록 증가하였지만, 부등류 해석의 경우 수로경사가 증가할수록 감소하였다가 다시 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 수로경사가 작은 경우 등류 해석보다 부등류 해석을 기반으로 노면배수 시설을 설계하는 것이 합리적인 것으로 판단되었다.

Skid resistance is an important factor that control braking distance and secure safety by preventing slipperiness between tire and pavement surface. Decrease of skid resistance at wet condition may cause fatal traffic accidents. Dirt materials such as sand and do-icings on the road surface also can be a factor for decrease skid resistance. This study makes an investigation into influence of skid resistance between varied cement concrete pavements about surface texturing method(transverse tining, longitudinal tining, exposed aggregate surface texturing method) and wearing condition of pavement surface texture(new constructed pavement's surface, wore pavement's surface) using accelerate concrete pavement wearing tester when remains of dirt material are obtained between tire and road surface on PCC pavement. As dirt material on road surface of concrete pavement, sand, calcium chloride and old oil were used with different amount of each cases.

Effective use of traffic marking can lead to driver's safer driving by speed management and visibility enhancement. One of the critical factors in designing traffic marking is how to incorporate human factor issues into the design process. This study presented a methodology for evaluating the effectiveness of Hi-pass marking on Korean freeways based on kansei engineering. Hi-pass marking scenarios made by a virtual reality tool were used to evaluate the user's perceptions. Various combination of chevron angles and peripheral transverse(PT) bars were used for the evaluation. The results show that the most effective scenario is a combination of 60 degree chevron angle and an askew parallelogramshaped PT bar shaped. It is expected that the proposed method and outcome will be useful for making safer driving maneuvers.

본 연구에서는 아스팔트 포장과 콘크리트 포장의 습윤시 교통사고 가능성을 비교하 였다. 다양한 노후도를 가진 두 포장재료에 대해 마찰력 측정장비(BPT, Britsh Pendulum Tester)로 건조 및 습윤상태에서 노면마찰력을 측정하였으며, 측정결과와 두 포장재료에 대 한 실제 교통사고율을 비교하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 요약하면 다음과 같다. (1) 노면 습윤 에 따른 마찰력 저하정도는 아스팔트 포장이 콘크리트 포장보다 컸다. (2) 노면 습윤에 따른 실제 교통사고율도 아스팔트 포장에서 훨씬 큰 것으로 나타나 (1)의 결론과 일관된 결과를 보여주었다. (3) 노면마찰력은 건조상태에서는 노면마모 정도에 크게 영향을 받지 않으나 일 단 습윤상태가 되면 노면마모가 심할수록 마찰력 저하폭이 큰 것으로 나타났다.
