PURPOSES : The purpose of this study is to analyze the improvement effect of the distributed arrangement of a vehicle base, which is a policy on maximizing the cost efficiency and timely/spatial effectiveness of special transportation system (STS) operation for improving the mobility of the elderly and disabled. METHODS: (1) The characteristics of the current distributed arrangement of an STS vehicle base in an urban area was analyzed. (2) The quantitative improvement effect was derived by analyzing the actual measurement of operation during STS distributed arrangement test operation in Namyangju city. RESULTS : (1) Cities with large area and populations, which have a distributed living zone in an urban area, have a higher distributed arrangement ratio than urbanized smaller cities. (2) Based on the effectiveness analysis of the STS distributed arrangement test operation, the total travel time and distance decreased. CONCLUSIONS : (1) For the STS distributed arrangement, parking spots, driver standby, and restrooms must be prepared. Facilitating STS as a public institution consignment makes it easier to secure a vehicle base and management by utilizing public facilities. (2) Implementing the STS distributed arrangement of vehicle base allows for efficient response to demand through effective management of vehicles, which eventually decreases travel time and distance. This decrease not only reduces management costs but also increases supply expansion without an increase in the number of vehicles.

PURPOSES : This study is aimed at development of a stochastic pavement deterioration forecasting model using National Highway Pavement Condition Index (NHPCI) to support infrastructure asset management. Using this model, the deterioration process regarding life expectancy, deterioration speed change, and reliability were estimated. METHODS: Eight years of Long-Term Pavement Performance (LTPP) data fused with traffic loads (Equivalent Single Axle Loads; ESAL) and structural capacity (Structural Number of Pavement; SNP) were used for the deterioration modeling. As an ideal stochastic model for asset management, Bayesian Markov multi-state exponential hazard model was introduced. RESULTS: The interval of NHPCI was empirically distributed from 8 to 2, and the estimation functions of individual condition indices (crack, rutting, and IRI) in conjunction with the NHPCI index were suggested. The derived deterioration curve shows that life expectancies for the preventive maintenance level was 8.34 years. The general life expectancy was 12.77 years and located in the statistical interval of 11.10-15.58 years at a 95.5% reliability level. CONCLUSIONS : This study originates and contributes to suggesting a simple way to develop a pavement deterioration model using the total condition index that considers road user satisfaction. A definition for level of service system and the corresponding life expectancies are useful for building long-term maintenance plan, especially in Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) work.

본 연구는 전북권내 냉장·냉동식품 유통차량을 대상으로 온도관리에 대한 현황을 파악하고자 중소기업 2곳과 대기업 5곳의 운송차량 총 8대를 대상으로 온도현황을 조사하였다. 냉장·냉동식품 유통차량의 실제공간상의 온도분 포 조사결과, 참여 중소기업의 냉장차량과 냉동차량 평균 온도는 각각 8.35 ± 5.72oC, −3.45 ± 16.88oC이었고, 대기 업의 냉장차량과 냉동차량 평균온도는 각각 3.92 ± 1.44oC, −15.38 ± 2.98oC로 중소기업 보다는 낮은 온도로 운영되는 것으로 나타났다. 냉장식품 적재함의 공간위치별 온도 차이는 평균적으로 2.40oC ± 1.45oC, 냉동식품 적재함은 2.37oC ± 2.52oC의 차이가 나타났지만 공간위치별 냉장, 냉동온도 모두 통계적으로 유의하지 않았다(p > 0.05). 냉장·냉동식품 하역에 따른 유통차량 문 개·폐 전·후의 식품 표면온 도는 냉장식품의 경우 열린 직후 평균 2.17 ± 1.90oC에서 닫힌 직후 2.72 ± 2.36oC로 약 0.55oC 상승하였으며, 냉동 식품은 열린 직후 −18.58 ± 3.66oC에서 닫힌 직후 −17.76 ± 4.15oC로 약 1.18oC의 온도 상승이 나타났다. 본 연구결과 냉장·냉동식품 유통차량의 공간위치별, 이동 시간별, 그리 고 유통차량 문의 개·폐에 따라 다양한 온도변화가 나타 날 수 있음이 확인되었다. 따라서 유통 및 이동과정 중 온도변화를 실시간으로 확인할 수 있는 온도이력(Time- Temperature History) 추적시스템 도입에 대한 현장 적용 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

Since 'The Act on Private Investment of The Infrastructure' was established in 1994, private investment as well as government's investment in transport infrastructure has been active. However investment in transport infrastructure has more risks than others' due to uncertainty both in traffic volume and in construction cost. In the current appraisal procedure of deciding transportation infrastructure investment, instead of risk management, the sensitivity analysis considering only the changes of benefit, cost and social discount rate which are main factor affecting economic feasibility is carried out. Therefore the uncertainty of various factors affecting demand, cost and benefit are not considered in feasibility study. In this study the problems in current investment appraisal system were reviewed. Using Delphi technique the major factors which have high uncertainty in feasibility study were surveyed and then improvement plan was suggested in the respective of classic 4 step demand forecasting method. The range estimation technique was also mentioned to deal with the uncertainty of the future.

The routes of coastal passenger ships are important in the light of both economic and social view point. Islands around the Korean peninsular can be actually dominated by linking them with land by the ships. The service quality of the route is not high enough to satisfy habitants in the islands. The income of the service-users is increasing so that they expect better service in terms of ship's speed and cabin. The reality is not, however, good to motivate ship-owners to replace aged ships with new and large ones. The situation is caused by low passenger-fare and inefficient management. Therefore the fare should be raised and the fare system should be innovated. And the number of passenger ship companies should be reduced from 42 to 20 by merger and acquisition.
