PURPOSES : This study deals with the effects on the installation of RLC(Red Light Camera). The objective is to analyze the effects of accident reduction after the installation of RLC. METHODS : In pursuing the above, the study uses the 703 accident data occurred at the 64 intersections which RLC are installed or not installed. RESULTS : The main results are as follows. First, Poisson RLC accident model developed in this study is analyzed to be statistically significant. Second, using the above developed model, 33 intersections among 40 intersections are predicted to have the decreasing effects of accidents after the installation of RLC. Finally, the reduction effects are analyzed to be affected by ADT and the number of left-turn lane. CONCLUSIONS : This study is expected to improve the efficiency of RLC and to help in decision-making of RLC installation.

The most important part in automated transport systems is steering control for lane keeping Most of systems developed so far have used the visual information for steering control. In this study, the steering control algorithm based on visual servoing has been developed and tested by applying it on Radio Controlled(R/C) model car equipped with one CCD camera. We also demonstrated the feasibility of using it as a pre-test car before the real car experiment in developing automated vehicles. In order to solve the problem of the limited spave and load of a model car, remote-brained approach has been taken. For steering control of a model car, the PD controller which uses the look ahead offset to generate control input has been implemented and the characteristics of the controller has been explained in view of kinematics. Some experimental results have been also illustrated so as to show the control performance and stability.

This study proposes two ESP systems which are designed to enhance the lateral stability of a vehicle. A BESP uses an inner rear wheel braking pressure controller, while a EBESP employs an inner rear wheel and front outer wheel braking pressure controller. The performances of the BESP and EBESP are evaluated for various road conditions and steering inputs. They reduce the slip angle and eliminate variation in the lateral acceleration, which increase the controllability and stability of the vehicle. However EBESP enhances the lateral stability and comfort. A driver model is also developed to control the steer angle input. It shows good performances because the vehicle tracks the desired lane very well.

중앙버스전용차로제가 도입됨에 따라 서울의 도로환경은 단기간에 급격하게 변하였으며, 이러한 급격한 변화에 미리 준비되지 못하였던 신호운영상의 문제점들이 경험되고 있다. 장 임계적인 문제점으로 중앙버스전용차로 설치구간 신호교차로에서 일반차량 좌회전 진행을 허용할 경우, 현재 우리나라가 규정하고 있는 차량 4색신호등의 한계로 인한 신호의 비효율적 운영이다. 중앙버스전용차로 설치구간 신호교차로에서 일반차량 좌회전의 현실적 운영방안 마련이 필요하다. 본 연구는 중앙차로전용신호의 도입을 준비하기 위하여 교통관제센터의 신호운영모드별 선행좌회전 및 후행좌회전 운영방안을 검토하고, 각 운영방안 별 Signal Map 구성방안을 점검한다. Signal Map 작성방안을 검토한 결과 기존의 신호제어 장비에 추가의 신호등기신호보드를 활용하는 방법으로 제안된 방법의 현장 적용이 용이한 것으로 확인되었다.

본 논문에서는 Network RTK 보정정보 생성 프로세스에서 핵심 process인 기준국간 미지정수 결정을 위해 Hatch filter를 이용한 방법과 L1/L2 측정치 조합을 활용하는 방법에 대해 소개하고 시뮬레이션 데이터 및 실측 데이터를 활용하여 그 성능을 비교 및 검증하였다. 각각의 방법에 대해 수식 전개를 수행하였으며, 사용자 성능 검증을 위해서 다중 기준국 네트워크에 대해 생성한 보정정보와 사용자 위치에서 생성한 보정정보의 차이값을 비교하였다. 각각의 기준국간 미지정수 결정 방법을 실측 데이터에 적용하여 사용자 성능을 예측한 결과, Hatch filter를 사용한 경우에는 단일 기준국 RTK 기반의 방법에 비해 다중 기준국 네트워크에서 생성된 보정정보를 사용하는 것이 사용자 성능을 크게 향상시키는 결과를 확인하였다. 그러나 사용자의 미지정수에 영향은 없으나, 상당한 크기의 바이어스 오차가 포함되는 것을 확인하였고 그 원인에 대해 분석하였다. L1/L2 측정치 조합을 이용한 경우, Hatch filter를 사용한 방법에 비해 사용자에 발생하는 오차의 크기가 훨씬 감소하였으며 잔차의 경향성도 훨씬 감소한 것을 확인하였다.

PURPOSES : This study is to develop speed correction factor for more realistic Level-of-Service(LOS) at multilane highway. METHODS : In this study, we compared speed difference the degree of speed reductions in actual multilane road conditions with speed reduction considering speed correction factor presented in highway capacity manual using statistical techniques. And also we presents new speed correction factor analyzing collected data at national highway No.1 (Goyang~Wolrung). RESULTS : The result of analyzing and comparing new suggested speed correction factor with speed correction factor in Korea Highway Capacity Manual (KHCM) shows RMSE (Root Mean Square Error) in new speed correction factor (RMSE 1.5) is much lower than existing speed correction factor (RMSE 13.4). New suggested speed correction can be used for analyzing Level-of-Service at multilane highway. And also we suggests improvements for analysis procedure in analyzing Level-of-Service at multilane highway CONCLUSIONS : As a result of comparing differences, we draw the causes that effect the differences in speed and suggest new speed correction factor that consider traffic volumes. It can be more rational because it uses speed correction factor which can consider more realistic traffic conditions, etc.

This paper proposes a traction control system (TCS) that uses a sliding mode wheel slip controller and a PID throttle valve controller. In addition, a yaw motion controller (YMC) is also developed to improve lateral stability using a PID rear wheel steering angle controller. The dynamics of a vehicle and characteristics of the controllers are validated using a proposed full-car model. A driver model is also designed to steer the vehicle during maneuvers on a split ${\mu}$ road and double lane change maneuver. The simulation results show that the proposed full-car model is sufficient to predict vehicle responses accurately. The developed TCS provides improved acceleration performances on uniform slippery roads and split ${\mu}$ roads. When the vehicle is cornering and accelerating with the brake or engine TCS, understeer occurs. An integrated TCS eliminates these problems. The YMC with the integrated TCS improved the lateral stability and controllability of the vehicle.

PURPOSES : The intents of the study are to identify the accident factors and to demonstrate the potentials of tobit model as a tool to study the number of accidents on arterial roads segments. METHODS : This paper uses a tobit regression as a methodology to analyze the factors affecting the number of accidents. In pursuing the above goal, this study gives particular attentions to analyzing the data of 2,446 accidents (1,610 in major arterial roads and 836 in minor arterial roads) occurred on arterial roads in 2007 to 2010. RESULTS : First, 3 accident models which were classified by total arterial roads, major arterial roads and minor arterial roads, and were all statistically significant were developed. Second, the exclusive right-turn lane as common variable, and the number of accident, traffic volume, number of lanes, link length, rate of median, number of entrances, number of pedestrian crossings, number of curves, number of bus stops and exclusive left-turn as specific variables of the models were selected. Finally, the paired sample t-test could not be rejected the null hypotheses of three types of models. CONCLUSIONS : Using data from vehicle accidents on arterial roads, the estimation results show that many factors related to roadway geometrics and traffic characteristics significantly affect to the number of accidents.

Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) is commonly used in manufacturing plant, warehouse, distribution center, and terminal. AGV is self-driven vehicle used to transport material between workstations in the shop floor without the help of an operator, and AGV includes a material transfer system located on the top and driving system at the bottom to move the vehicle as desired. For navigation, AGV mostly uses lane paths, signal paths or signal beacons. Various predominant sensors are also used in the AGV. However, in the conventional AGV, there is a problem of not turning or damaging nearby objects or AGV in a narrow space. In this paper, a new driving system is proposed to move the vehicle in a narrow space. In the proposed driving system, two sets of the combined steering-drive unit are adopted to solve the above problem. A prototype of AGV with the new driving system is developed for the comparative analysis with the conventional AGV. In addition, the experimental result shows the improved performance of the new driving system in the maximum speed, braking distance and positioning precision tests.
