공항은 다른 어떤 기반시설보다 복잡하고 사고시 매우 치명적이기 때문에 공항 계획/설계시 운영적인 측면을 고려한 면밀한 검토가 필요하다. 공항 건설이후 실제 항공기가 어떻게 운영되는지 시뮬레이션하고 문제점을 사전에 예측함으로써 항공기 운항 안전성을 확보할 수 있기 때문이다. 최근 도로/공항의 경우 디지털 트윈 기반의 시뮬레이션 프로그램으로 설계, 분석하는 사례가 많다. 이러한 기조에 맞춰 공항에서도 시뮬레이션 프로그램인 AviPLAN을 활용하여 에어사이드 배치 설계를 수행하고 있으며, 인천국제공항공사와 한국공항공사에서도 활용하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 기존 국내외 공항에 AviPLAN 프로그램을 활용하여 최적화 설계를 수행하였고 산출된 포장물량 절감사례를 바탕으로 에어사이드 시설 배치가 얼마나 중요한지 확인하고자 하였다.

전 세계적으로 실도로에서의 자율주행차 안전성능을 검증하고 자율주행 시스템 기술의 개발을 위해 다양한 실증을 수행하고 있다. 미국의 경우 캘리포니아, 오하이오, 애리조나 등 다양한 주에서 자율주행차의 실도로 테스트를 진행하고 있으며, 독일의 경우 페가수 스 및 이매진 프로젝트 등을 통해 자율주행 성능 및 협력 운행 테스트를 수행하였다. 그러나, 자율주행차의 주행 성능 측면의 평가에 국한되어 실증이 진행되고 있다는 한계가 존재한다. 실도로 환경에서 자율주행차는 비자율주행차, 보행자 및 자전거 등과 상호작용하 며, 다양한 도로 기하구조에서 주행안전성 저하 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 혼재교통상황에서 자율주행차의 주행 안전성을 저하시키는 도로 기하구조를 도출하였다. 또한, 캘리포니아 Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)에서 제시한 자율주행차 관련 사고자료 검토를 통해 유사한 도로 기하구조에서 발생할 수 있는 사고 유형을 검토함으로써 선제적인 대안을 마련하고자 한다. 시뮬 레이션 분석을 위한 자율주행차 거동구현의 경우 real-world automated vehicle data (AVD) 기반 주행행태 분석을 통해 VISSIM 파라미 터를 조정하였다. 위험구간 도출을 위해 평가지표를 선정하고 주행안전성 분석을 수행하였으며, 위험 구간의 도로 기하구조의 특성을 도출하였다. 마지막으로 위험구간의 도로 기하구조와 유사한 구간에서 발생한 실제 자율주행차 관련 사고 보고서를 검토함으로써 본 연구에서 도출된 위험구간의 도로 기하구조에서 발생할 수 있는 잠재적 사고 원인을 제시하였다. 본 연구의 결과를 통해 향후 자율주 행차의 실도로 도입을 위해 선제적인 대책을 마려하는데 기초자료로 활용될 수 있으며, 나아가 자율주행차 안전성 향상을 위한 경고 정보 서비스 개발, 정보 제공 인프라 설치 우선순위, 도로 기하구조 개선 사업에 활용할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

With the advancement of optical design and manufacturing technology, optical components have found diverse applications, spanning from semiconductors to the aerospace industry. A reflective mirror is a basic component in optics and plays a crucial role as the medium to reflect light. In this paper, a large mirror with a 700mm diameter was designed as a primary mirror using fused silica. The rear side of the mirror was subdivided into several equal angles, and neighboring vertices on the circumference were connected to establish a polygon. Accordingly, the geometric shapes of triangle, square, pentagon, and hexagon were formed. Furthermore, the mirror structure was strengthened by employing straight lines passing the vertices and the center of the circle. Based on the finite element analysis, deformations of the mirrors caused by the gravitational force were evaluated. Weight and deformation of the mirror structures were compared and analyzed to find a proper structure to reduce weight and deformation. This paper, therefore, presents a structural solution aimed at reducing the weight and deformation of a large aperture mirror induced by gravitational forces, thereby suggesting a geometric shape based structure to reduce surface deformation of a mirror.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study was to analyze the visibility of lanes according to the changes in the plane and longitudinal line of roads considering the horizontal and vertical diffusion angles of vehicle headlights at night. First, the visibility length of the lane was determined according to the plane linearity of the road such that it could be applied to simulation and visualization data. Second, the night vision length of the lane was established according to the longitudinal line of the road such that it could be applied to the simulation and visualization data. METHODS : In this study, each variable is first examined to consider the horizontal and vertical diffusion angles of the vehicle headlights. Second, the equation for the visibility of the lane by vehicle headlights in planar linearity is obtained, and the visibility of the lane is determined. Third, an equation is obtained for the visibility of the lane by vehicle headlights in longitudinal linearity. RESULTS : The results of this study are as follows. First, the visibility length of the lane in the section where the plane linearity of the highway existed at night was studied. In this case, the visibility length of the right and left lanes based on the vehicle decreased according to the plane linearity of the highway. Second, the visibility length of the lane in the section where the longitudinal line of the highway existed at night was investigated. In this case, the visibility length of the lane decreased according to the change in the longitudinal line of the highway. CONCLUSIONS : Considering the horizontal and vertical diffusion angles, the visibility length of the lane was determined according to the changes in the plane and vertical line of the road. It can be applied to simulation and visualization data. In general, the visibility length considering the spread angle of the vehicle headlights was shorter than the visibility length of the lane by the headlights; roads must be designed in consideration with the above result.

PURPOSES :With the increasing number of older drivers in an aging society, there is a growing need for research and planning on traffic safety for the older drivers using an improved road geometry design. This study also proposed a modified urban road interchange design, which aims to keep the older drivers away from accident-prone and high-traffic areas of the city.METHODS:In this study, we examined accident data records of older drivers to identify accident-prone zones and intersections; we studied the road geometry at these zones and analyzed if it was an underlying cause for higher number of accidents. Based on the research and subsequent analysis, we suggested plans for improvement of road geometry design at these intersections.RESULTS:By studying historic data and analyzing factors that affect the likelihood of accidents of vehicles driven by older drivers and after studying suitable traffic accident prediction models, we identified the major variables that need to be modified at accident-prone intersections, such as the width of a left turn lane at an intersection and the radius of the right turn lane at a street corner. The results have a significance probability of less than 0.001 and a 95% confidence level. To improve safety at the identified intersection, this study suggests the installation of a left-turn-lane-shaped Positive Offset and a right-turn-lane-shaped Slip Lane concept and an adjustment of intervals between intersections.

The result of the previous work leads to the idea that the inner area of the hyperbolic shell generator should be minimized for the cooling tower with higher first natural frequency. In this study the inner area of the hyperbolic shell generator was graphically established under varying height of the throat and angle of the base lintel. From the graph, several shell geometries were selected and analysed in the aspect of the natural frequency. Three representative towers reinforced differently due to different first natural frequencies were analysed non-linearly and evaluated using a damage indicator based on the change of natural frequencies. The results demonstrated that the damage behaviour of the tower reinforced higher due to a lower first natural frequency was not necessarily advantageous than the others

Determining of the shape in the process of design for natural draught cooling tower is very important, because the shape of hyperbolic shell is respond sensitively to dynamic behavior of the whole cooling tower against wind load. In engineering practice, the geometric parameters have been determining based on the natural frequency. This study analyses influence of the tower shell geometric parameters on the structural behavior. For three representative models were selected, they were analyzed based on evaluation of damage by means of nonlinear FE-method. As a result, a hyperbolic rotational shell with the small radius overall was the lowest damage index induced by sufficient capacity of the stress redistribution and thus a wind-insensitive structure.

PURPOSES : This study aimed to offer a greenhouse gases table to assist a road designer in calculating the greenhouse gases for a road environment when making a decision about an alternative road. METHODS: This study developed an operation mode table of greenhouse gases using the MOVES program. Similar factors for Korean vehicles and fuels are reflected in the MOVES program, which was made in the USA. Finally, a paired t-test was conducted to calculate the site data and MOVES data. Through these studies, a methodology was suggested for calculating carbon emissions based on various types of roads alignments. RESULTS : The site results for a passenger truck on the road were statistically significant when the vehicle speed was above 65 km/h. However, a future study will consider factors for various road alignments and vehicles. CONCLUSIONS : This study will contribute to the theoretical basis for reducing carbon emissions from roads by helping road designers make decisions about road alternatives in terms of the road environment.

ABSTRACT PURPOSES: It is desirable for buses to be parallel to the face of the bus shelter at a bus stop. In this way, passengers can safely use the buses without moving into the vehicle area. The study was a review of the current bus bay geometric guidelines, to determine whether they lead buses to stop parallel to the face of the bus shelter by analyzing vehicle trajectory. METHODS : A commercial software program for vehicle trajectory analysis was used under our assumptions about bus dimensions and geometric values. The final position of the bus was analyzed for multiple trajectory simulations, reflecting various geometric alternatives. RESULTS: Within the scope of the study, we concluded that the current design guidelines need to be revised by the design values suggested by the study. CONCLUSIONS : The results of the study suggested alternative design values for bus bay geometry, based on the assumption that buses should be parallel to the face of the bus shelter in order to prevent passengers from moving into the vehicle area.

PURPOSES: Recently, many local governments have applied chicanes for traffic calming to ensure environment-friendly comfortable and safe roads. However, the geometry of a chicane is designed for speed reduction using a curved portion. This study aims to improve the road geometry conditions of chicanes for reducing carbon emissions and maintaining appropriate driving speeds by considering the relationship between road geometry and carbon emissions. METHODS: This study was conducted as follows. First, carbon emissions corresponding to changing acceleration of vehicles were studied. Second, vehicle acceleration caused by the relationship between the curve radius and the straight length was studied. Accordingly, desirable conditions of curve radius and length of the straight section for reducing carbon emissions were proposed. RESULTS: The existing literature on chicanes present the minimum value of stagger length and path angle in the primary variable condition. This study suggests the maximum values of the curve radius and length of straight section in the primary variable condition. Therefore, if a vehicle’s speed at a chicane is 30 km/h, this study suggests a curve radius of up to 24 m. In addition, if the vehicle’s speed is 24 km/h, this study suggests a length of straight section of up to 6.6 m. These are the geometric conditions for considering the control of acceleration to the vehicle’s maximum speed. CONCLUSIONS: This paper proposes an application of geometric conditions to reduce carbon emissions and maintain appropriate speeds of vehicles through a combination of curve radius and length of straight section.

PURPOSES: This study devotes its energies to estimate greenhouse gas emissions for types of horizontal highway designs. METHODS: This paper suggested two types of road scenarios, scenario 1 is made by the lack of road design consistency. Beside scenario 1, scenario 2 is made by good road design. For comparisons of greenhouse gas emissions, driving simulator was used. RESULTS: Emission rates of road scenario 1 are 1.4 times higher than scenario 2 in the driving simulator. CONCLUSIONS : This study may have important implications for contributing to the application of road alignment technology for reduction of greenhouse gases as quantifying the correlations between greenhouse emissions and various road alignments. Consequently, this study will help road designers determine which roads are best alternatives in the process of choosing the roads in the future in terms of environmental benefits.

PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the effectiveness of speed limit change that is defined as the amount of increased travel speed. METHODS: A ordered logit model was adopted to analyze the relationship between the change in travel speed and contributing factors. A stretch of Kyungbu freeway was selected for the analysis because the Korea expressway corporation has raised speed limit from 100km/h to 110km/h since September 1st in 2010. RESULTS: The results showed that geometric design elements, speeding cameras, and section length were identified as factors contributing the effectiveness. Contributing geometric design elements include the number of horizontal curves and vertical curves that do not meet the design requirement with 110km/h speed limit. CONCLUSIONS: The outcome of this study will be used for establishing various traffic operations and control strategies for freeway speed management.

PURPOSES: The purpose of study is to understand the characteristic of driving noise from the front and rear tire for effective active noise cancellation application. METHODS : As literature review, noise measurement methods were reviewed. Noise measurement conducted at three kind of section by road slope using CPX(Close Proximity Method). Noise data was compared by total sound pressure level and 1/3 octave band frequency sound pressure level. Also, each section was compared by T-test using SPSS. RESULTS : In the case of the uphill section, it was shown that the sound pressure level of the front tire at Sugwang-Ri and Sinchon-RI sections was higher than that of the rear tire in low and high frequency band. In the case of high slope section of Sangsaek-Ri, the sound pressure level of the front tire was higher than that of the rear tire in high frequency. Also, in the case of the downhill section, it was shown that the sound pressure level of the front tire at Sugwang-Ri and Sinchon-RI sections was higher than that of the rear tire in low frequency band. However, the sound pressure levels of both the front and rear tires were approximately the same in the high slope section of Sangsaek-Ri. The result of T-test showed that total sound pressures of the front and rear tires were not different from each other in the case of high slope and high speed. CONCLUSIONS: Road slope was not an important variable for effective active noise cancellation.

막 구조물은 연성의 막에 초기 장력을 주고 외관의 강성을 늘림으로써 외부하중에 안정된 형태를 유지하는 구조물로 두께를 얇게 하여 대공간 구조에 많이 채택된다. 이러한 막 구조는 자유로운 곡선을 표현할 수 있는 특성이 있어, 구조적 형태의 선정은 매우 중요하다. 이에 본 논문에서는 넙스를 기저함수로 하는 비정형 곡면으로 형상을 표현하고, 최적의 곡면 형상 탐색을 위한 대변형 결과값 도출을 위해 기하학적 비선형을 고려한 유한요소해석법을 제안하였다. 또한, 형상 탐색 결과로 나타난 곡면의 형상 근사화의 최소화를 위해 유한 요소망으로 표현된 최종 형상을 다시 넙스로 구현하는 인터페이스 기법을 제안하여, 비정형 막 구조물의 최적 곡면을 표현하였다.

융설액 분사 시스템은 강설이 예상되거나 진행 중인 상황에서 즉시 대응이 가능하며, 강설 초기에 효율적인 처리로 강설로 인해 발생 가능한 교통사고와 교통 지정체를 감소시킬 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 시스템의 설치비용이 고가이고, 설치되는 장비의 종류에 따라 운영 및 유지관리 비용이 지속적으로 소요되기 때문에 모든 도로 구간에 설치하는 것은 현실적으로 불가능하다. 최근 국내에서는 결빙 위험 구간을 파악할 수 있는 프로그램들이 개발되어 턴키 및 대안 설계에 활용되고 있다. 그러나 프로그램 개발 업체들마다 분석 방식이 상이하고 객관적인 기준이 없는 실정이다. 이에 따라 융설시스템 적용구간에 대한 기준 마련도 시급하다고 볼 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 선형, 기상조건, 일조조건 등을 다양한 도로 조건을 정량화하여 어떤 구간에 우선적으로 융설시스템을 적용하여야 하는지 판단할 수 있는 기준을 제시한다. 이를 위해 국내 지역별 기상 조사, 지형지물에 의해 음지 발생 여부 분석, 선형과 미끄럼 저항성을 고려한 차량 시뮬레이션 등을 수행하고 이론적 검토를 통해 설치 기준 방법론을 정립하는데 중점을 둔다.
