The research was conducted to investigate the characteristics of lateral wheel path distributions (wandering) in different traffic lanes. The lateral wheel path distributions may affect pavement life and various distress types. The results presented that the normal distribution curve with symmetry was observed in the 2-lane and 3-lane roads. In the case of the 2-lane road (on one direction), the wanderings were 70-95cm, and 70-85cm for the 1st and 2nd lanes, respectively, while in the case of the 3-lane road (on one direction), 50-60cm, 65-85cm, and 80-95cm for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd lanes, respectively. In addition, the 1st lane vehicles tended to pass on the right side to avoid the opposite side vehicles, while the outside lane vehicles tended to pass on the left side to avoid the walkway.

Due to the characteristics of urban freeways such as heavy traffic and high speed, work zone on urban freeways causes the increase of not only the likelihood of crash occurrence but also traffic congestion caused by lane drop, lane change, acceleration/deceleration, and etc. This paper aims to determine the proper length of transition area that satisfies two criteria, mobility and safety, to make the operation of work zone more efficient. For the analysis, three different scenarios were developed by the number of lanes and the proper length of transition area were determined by changing the length from 100m to 500m in 100m increments. The results showed that the proper length of transition area for 3- and 4-lane freeways is 300m, whereas the proper length of 2-lane freeways is 200m. The results indicated that the different length of transition area based on the number of lanes is more desirable and efficient.

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.

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) technology have enabled the integration of AI technology into image sensors, such as Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV), to detect specific traffic incidents. However, most incident detection methods have been carried out using fixed equipment. Therefore, there have been limitations to incident detection for all roadways. Nevertheless, the development of mobile image collection and analysis technology, such as image sensors and edge-computing, is spreading. The purpose of this study is to estimate the reducing effect of the incident detection time according to the introduction level of mobile image collection and analysis equipment (or connected vehicles). To carry out this purpose, we utilized data on the number of incidents collected by the Suwon branch of the Gyeongbu expressway in 2021. The analysis results showed that if the market penetration rate (MPR) of connected vehicles is 4% or higher for two-lane expressway and 3% or higher for three-lane expressways, the incident detection time was less than one minute. Furthermore, if the MPR is 0.4% or higher for two-lane expressways and 0.2% or higher for three-lane expressways, the incident detection time decreased compared to the average incident detection time announced by the Korea Expressway Corporation for both two-lane and three-lane expressways.

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.

This study which is based on the Master's and Doctor's theses printed from the Korean liberation day to 2003. It has been carried out to research the trends of tea culture in Korea, by analyzing the current printing situations on the kinds of degrees, the chronicles of theses and tea culture. It has found out that the total number of the theses was 276, which of them were for a master's degree, up to $232(84\%)$. As for the printing time, it increased in the mids of 1990s and soared up sharply in 2003. For the fields, the theses on the efficacy of tea printed 178, which reached $64.4\%$, 148 of them were on the medical and pharmacological view and reached $83\%$. For the cultural view, the theses on reached only $6.9\%$. Recently, the theses on the marketing or the education of Da-do haven been increasing sharply.

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 study presents an analysis of a total of 101 papers on the theme of international research cooperation by nation, gathered from Web of Science. The findings of this study show that 20 nations published papers on the theme of international research cooperation with the ranking of U.K.(27 papers, 26.7%), the Netherlands(20 papers, 19.8%), U.S.(19 papers, 18.8%), Brazil and Spain(5 papers, 5.0%), Russia(4 papers, 4.0%), etc. South Korea was found to be in the lower ranking group(2 papers, 2.0%), suggesting that it still has a lower level of international research cooperation. Thus, particularly, researchers at universities by institution and humanities by discipline should activate the publication of papers on international research cooperation by expanding relevant projects so that the international research capabilities of South Korea should be bolstered.
