Currently, subway crowding is estimated by observing a specific point at specific hours once or twice every 1 or 2 years. Given the extensive subway network in Seoul Metropolitan Area covering 588 stations, 11 lines and 80 transfer stations as of 2017, implementing crowding mitigation policy may have its limitations due to data uncertainty. A proposal has recently been made to effectively use smart card data, which generates big data on the overall subway traffic related to an estimated 8 million passengers per day. To mitigate subway crowding, this study proposes two viable options based on data related to smart card used in Seoul Metropolitan Area. One is to create a subway passenger pattern model to accurately estimate subway crowding, while the other is to prove effectiveness of early bird policy to distribute subway demand that is concentrated at certain stations and certain time. A subway passenger pattern model was created to estimate the passenger routes based on subway terminal ID at the entrance and exit and data by hours. To that end, we propose assigning passengers at the routes similar to the shortest routes based on an assumption that passengers choose the fastest routes. In the model, passenger flow is simulated every minute, and subway crowding level by station and line at every hour is analyzed while station usage pattern is identified by depending on passenger paths. For early bird policy, highly crowded stations will be categorized based on congestion level extracted from subway passenger pattern model and viability of a policy which transfers certain traveling demands to early commuting hours in those stations will be reviewed. In particular, review will be conducted on the impact of policy implemented at certain stations on other stations and lines from subway network as a whole. Lastly, we proposed that smart card based subway passenger pattern model established through this study used in decision making process to ensure effective implementation of public transport policy.

In the present study, a numerical simulation of passenger evacuation in a subway station was performed. Algorithm for passenger flow analysis based on DEM(Discrete Element Method) has been improved to simulate passenger flow in detailed geometry. The effect of grid density was assessed in the present study to show the advantage of using finer grid in the simulation. The method of coupling passenger flow and fire simulation has also been investigated to analyze passenger evacuation flow under fire. In this method the CO distributions in the subway station was used to assess fire hazards of passenger by means of FED(Fractional Effective Dose) model. Using the coupled algorithm a simulation for passenger evacuation flow and fire analysis were performed simultaneously in the simplified subway station. This algorithm could be used in the design of subway station for the purpose of passengers' safety in case of fire.

본 연구는 서울 수도권의 지하철 교통망에서 승객들의 흐름을 찾아 시각화 방법을 제안하고 주요 업무지역의 출퇴근 승객 흐름을 분석한다. 지하철 승객 흐름은 대용량 시공간 데이터로서 일반적인 통계적 분석으로는 그 흐름의 본질을 분석하기가 매우 어렵다. 그러나 승객의 흐름을 시공간상에 역동적으로 시각화하여 보여주면 직관적인 분석이 가능할 뿐만 아니라 통행흐름의 특성을 보다 효과적으로 파악할 수 있다. 지하철 승객들의 대용량 교통카드 트랜잭션 데이터베이스로부터 제안된 방법으로 승객 흐름을 찾아 지하철 교통망의 각 링크의 흐름을 다양한 방법으로 시각화하여 주요 업무지역에서의 통행 행태를 직관적으로 분석하였다. 그 결과로 서울의 중심업무지역들과 지하철 노선과의 연관성이 매우 높고, 세 주요 중심업무지역들의 하루 지하철 승객흐름 양상에 뚜렷한 차이가 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

Express subway system is one of the effective systems adapting to improve service level. Express trains make fewer passenger stop, using a double track or a bypass track, than local trains which served all stations, Express service has been very popular with passengers who travel uninterrupted between terminals, but is has generated some dissatisfaction among passengers who experience longer waiting time on stations. This study aims at proposing the methodology to analyze changes of travel pattern in subway system adapting the express service and to estimate the time saving effects resulting from the installation of the express system. This methodology is evaluated in the fifth line under an assumpt ion that express subway system are adapted. Based on the results of the case study, the following conclusions are made: First, express system reduce a total travel time of 13% or above. Second, shorter headway of express trains increases the time saving effects on subway system. although it requests more waiting time to local train passenger. Third, an installation of Express system to Seoul subway system can augment subway demand in seoul metropolitan area.

Using network betweenness centrality we attempt to analyze the characteristics of Seoul metropolitan subway lines. Betweenness centrality highlights the importance of a node as a transfer point between any pairs of nodes. This 'transfer' characteristic is obviously of paramount importance in transit systems. For betweenness centrality, both traditional betweenness centrality measure and weighted betweenness centrality measure which uses monthly passenger flow amount between two stations are used. By comparing traditional and weighted betweenness centrality measures of lines characteristics of passenger flow can be identified. We also investigated factors which affect betweenness centrality. It is the number of passenger who get on or get off that significantly affects betweenness centrality measures. Through correlation analysis of the number of passenger and betweenness centrality, it is found out that Seoul metropolitan subway system is well designed in terms of regional distribution of population. Four measures are proposed which represent the passenger flow characteristics. It is shown they do not follow Power-law distribution, which means passenger flow is relatively evenly distributed among stations. It has been shown that the passenger flow characteristics of subway networks in other foreign cities such as Beijing, Boston and San Franciso do follow power-law distribution, that is, pretty much biased passenger flow traffic characteristics. In this study we have also tried to answer why passenger traffic flow of Seoul metropolitan subway network is more homogeneous compared to that of Beijing.

There have been subway conflagrations such as Daegu subway conflagration at 2003, Washington D.C conflagration last month and so on. Compared to that, proper evacuation route is far from satisfactory. So this paper suggests optimized route when subway's passengers evacuate from passenger cars. For conducting our experiment, We made temporarily a model of subway station which is made up with 8 passengers cars and 3 exits. Using genetic algorithm, we found the optimized route that first and second passenger cars are optimized to first exit and third, fourth, fifth and sixth passengers cars are optimized to second exit and finally seventh, eighth passengers cars are optimized to third exit. It is expected that real subway station is applied to our experiment by developing passenger distribution algorithm.

서울 수도권 지하철 승객이 인터넷으로 구매한 채소 등의 신선 식품을 퇴근하는 도중에 이동 경로상의 지하철역 구내의 서비스 시설물에서 배달 받는다고 가정하면, 제기되는 문제는 어떤 지하철역에 서비스 시설물을 설치하면 얼마나 많은 승객들이 이용하는 가를 파악하는 것이다. 이러한 문제는 픽업 문제로 알려져 있고, 픽업 문제를 풀려면 교통 흐름을 설명하는 교통 네트워크가 있어야 되고 각 교통 흐름의 이동 경로도 알 수 있어야 된다. 서울 수도권 교통카드 시스템의 교통카드 트랜잭션 데이터베이스로부터 지하철 승객의 출발역에서 도착역까지 움직이는 이동 경로인 승객 흐름을 구할 수 있으므로, 서울 수도권 지하철 교통 시스템에서 픽업 문제는 승객 흐름을 최대한 많이 포착하는 서비스 시설물들을 설치할 지하철역들을 선정하는 것이다. 본 논문에서 서울 수도권 지하철 시스템과 지하철 승객들의 흐름을 픽업 문제의 모델에 맞추어 수식화하였고, 이를 기반으로 하여 지하철 승객들의 흐름을 기종점 통행 행렬을 만들어 단계별로 가장 많은 통과 승객수를 갖는 픽업 역을 계산해내는 빠른 휴리스틱 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 대용량 교통 네트워크와 교통 흐름에 해당되는 약 400여 개의 지하철역을 가진 서울 수도권 지하철 네트워크와 약 500만 명의 지하철 교통카드 트랜잭션들을 입력으로 하여 제안된 알고리즘으로 선정된 픽업 역들을 빠른 시간 내에 얻었고, 그 중에서 상위 10개 픽업 역들을 지하철 안내 지도에 표시하여 설명하였다. 그리고, 그 결과가 거의 최적해와 같음을 추가 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

A numerical simulation of passenger evacuation in a subway station was performed by coupling the passenger flow analysis and the fire simulation. The algorithm of the passenger flow analysis was based on a DEM (Discrete Element Method) using the potential map of the direction vector for each passenger. This algorithm was improved in the present study as to use finer grid smaller than a passenger in order to resolve detailed geometry of the station and to resolve the behavior of passengers in the bottleneck at the ticket gate considering the collision of passengers to a wall or with other passengers. In the fire simulation, the CO distribution predicted by using CFD was used to take into account the effect of toxic gases on the passengers' mobility. The methodology proposed in the present study could be used in designing safer subway station in case of fire occurrence.
