VISSIM을 이용한 다이아몬드 입체교차점에서의 회전교차로 효과분석

This study deals with the roundabout installed at the diamond interchange. The goal is to analyze the relative effectiveness of roundabout to signalized intersection. In pursuing the above, this study gives the particular attentions to comparing the performances using VISSIM software. The main results analyzed are as follows. First, the single and double roundabouts are analyzed to have the rapid change of delay in the case of total entering vehicles of more than 2,400pcph for directional rate 10:5:5, 2,800pcph for 10:8:2, and 4,400pcph for 10:2:8. Second, the roundabouts are evaluated to be more effective than signalized intersection in the case of total entering vehicles of less than 4,000pcph for directional rate 10:5:5, and 4,400pcph for 10:2:8. In the case of directional rate 10:8:2, double roundabout of total entering vehicles less than 5,600pcph is analyzed to be more effective than signalized intersection. Finally, the performance of double roundabout is analyzed to be very similar to that of single roundabout in the case of total entering vehicles less than 4,400pcph. However, the double roundabout is evaluated to be more effective than single in the case of total entering vehicles more than 4,400pcph.
