  • This study applied regression analysis to evaluate the impact of hourly average congestion calculated by bumper model in the congested area of each passage of each port on the peak time congestion, to suggest the model formula that can predict the peak time congestion. This study conducted regression analysis of hourly average congestion and peak time congestion based on the AIS survey study of 20 ports in Korea. As a result of analysis, it was found that the hourly average congestion has a significant impact on the peak time congestion and the prediction model formula was derived. This formula($C_p=4.457C_a+29.202$) can be used to calculate the peak time congestion based on the predicted hourly average congestion.

  • To prevent serious maritime accident and eliminate the cause of the potential maritime accidents, Maritime Safety Audit Scheme was formally institutionalized through amendment of Maritime Traffic Safety Act(May 27, '09). At the initial step of the enforcement of the law, it has risen the necessity of amending the present institution concerning with the range of applicable business, method of practice, detailed technical standards in the assessment articles, etc. Among them, the assessment of marine traffic congestion has been practiced as a mandatory assessment article, but it is analyzed that the assessment doesn't reflect current variation of ships' size and its speed. By analyzing the status of assessments on marine traffic congestion so far and collecting experts' opinion, this paper suggests draft amendments to improve technical standards on the assessment of marine traffic congestion.

  • This study focused on the investigating of the improving measure of marine traffic system around Pyung-Taek Pilotage area. First, we analyzed the marine traffic environment on the study area based on the expert point of view of pilot and shipmasters. Then suggested the following countermeasures to improve the traffic safety according to the analytic results of the hazardous items on the Jangan-Seo and Ippa pilot embarking/disembarking area. We suggested to establish Mokdeok-do TSS and TSS in Ando area, and to adjust the width of Jangan-seo TSS to improve the congestion on the TSSs. Also suggest to put lightbuoys along the outer limit of the TSS. In addition, recommend to establish traffic safety specific area on the Jangan-seo/Ippa-do water, and to suggest expand the anchorage area of Ippa and Jangan-seo anchorage. It is anticipated to improve the traffic safety on the study area through the marine traffic system improvements.

  • Saigon-Vungtau fairway is the main and the most important fairway of the major economic areas: Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai Province and Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province in Vietnam. In last 5 years, 80% of accidents happened on the fairway were caused by collision and contact/impact. This presentation study on marine traffic investigation in the adjacent of the fairway to find out problems related to marine traffic for improving Marine Traffic Safety Management in this area.

  • In Pusan Harbour, new port development projects are implemented such as the Extended Terminal adjacent to the Gamman Terminal, Pusan New Port, the Navy $\bigcirc$$\bigcirc$ piers, etc. which will require new marine traffic environments in the Passage I of Pusan Harbour. Specially, the turning basin of the Extended Terminal adjacent to the Gamman Terminal has been designed to overlay the Passage I of Pusan Harbour, which will interrupt the inbound traffic flow and the results will be worried to decrease the efficiency of port operation. Therefore, this paper will be aimed to evaluate the traffic congestion in the Pusan Passage I due to the opening of new ports within Pusan Harbour in 2006 and 2011 by using computer simulation based the queueing theory.
