  • Residents in an area where both trains and cars pass through are exposed to not only road traffic noise but also railway noise. Nevertheless, the degree of annoyance the caused to the residents is being under evaluated as the noises have been evaluated separately. Therefore, this study aimed at evaluating the integrated noise of road traffic and railway, and proving the accuracy of the evaluation result.

  • Serving as a strategic crossing point for major corridors in Central Europe, Railnet Austria's Infrastructure Network incurs continual increases in international traffic flows and is therefore subject to accumulating traffic congestion with potential restrictions to infrastructure access. This imposes challenges towards preserving open access to Railnet Austria's existing railway network and hinders quality infrastructure service during maintenance, repair, and upgrading. Through Railnet Austria's experiences, the economic viability of a railway network can be sustained through maintaining open access with good quality service of planned trainpaths, thus representing new challenges for future infrastructure maintenance and capacity planning. Railnet Austria's Capacity Management Department has proven that these challenges can be accommodated more effectively through recent technological developments in data warehousing and software development.

  • Many changes in the railway environment has directly affected to the railway company. To cope immediately with the influence of environment and to promote productivity, the railway company has to introduce an efficient train operation system and related core technologies. The railway system is composed or large-scale infrastructures ann high-cost trains. Simulation method is one or core technologies and also is efficient tool for planning and analyzing this kind of complex system. The purpose of this research is to develop multi-train traffic simulator considering high-speed train for GyongBu-Line. To achieve this objective, the elements of railway system was analyzed, and as a result, a data structure modeling for the railway system such as rail-Tine infrastructure, rain, timetable and operational route is presented. The developed simulator is composed of three major part : input-module, main-module, and output module. The concept and brief explanation of each module will be treated.

  • To upgrade railway traffic density without any change of signal block length between stations on existing railway lines, a new signalling system of train control "the pattern control technique" is suggested. It needs very little change to computerize the cab signal using transponders. A computer simulation system is developed to experiment the new control method. The new signalling system shows much increase of the railway traffic efficiency. The train head-way time by the fixed signalling system and the new pattern control system is analyzed. The pattern control technique shows 35% increasement of trair operation under same condition of railway and trains.nd trains.

  • In this paper, We elicit the necessity of the Autonomous Decentralized Traffic Control System by analyzing problems of the Centralized Traffic Control System and present operation system. The automatic traffic control system using in large and high-density railway stations is designed and implemented on the basis of the elicited necessity in this paper. It is proposed to use broadcasting protocol for interface of stations in order to ensure autonomy. The result is that advantages of the Autonomous Decentralized Traffic Control System makes on-line expansion and maintenance available. step-by-step construction available. and reduce the area of the influences of system fault when any system fault happens.

  • This study highlights the main effect of job demand, work shift, work environment and stressors on the railway traffic controller's health, and the moderating effect of work0life balance. The result of empirical analysis based on questionnaires received from 328 traffic controllers working at 10 railway operating companies indicates that job demand, work shift, work environment and stressors have significant effect on their health, among which stressors is a major factor. In the respect of moderating effect, WLB showed no significance except for job demand. This result implies that controller's health can not be enhanced through their individual family or leisure life. Therefore, effective countermeasures and policy to mitigate their health problems and heal their symptoms are urgent.

  • In this research we developed a new traffic accident forecasting model on the basis of land use. A new traffic accident forecasting model by type was developed based on market segmentation and further introduction of variables that may reflect characteristics of various regions using Classification and Regression Tree Method. From the results of analysis, activities variables such as the registered population, commuters as well as road size, traffic accidents causing facilities being the subjects of activities were derived as variables explaining traffic accidents.

  • This paper is to investigate adoptability of the genetic algorithm to the railway traffic conflict resolution problem. We categorize the problem in two cases, one is the specific-boundary case and the other is not. GA is may be used in the first case, but not for second case. For a sample problem, an GA is designed, and the GA is being compared with Ho's.
