Candipuro highway, Candipuro District, Lumajang Regency is a road section which is passed by sand loaded trucks so that this road receives excessive loads. It can be seen from the presence of perforation damages, hair cracks, longitudinal and transverse cracks, edge cracks and polished aggregate. The damages on the road can disrupt the comfort and safety of drivers and affect to Vehicle Operating Cost (VOC). There is 2 maintenance method used in this research. The first method was an analysis of routine roadwork strategies once a year and second method every 3 years for 9 years to find out the most efficient cost for roadwork and operating cost for vehicles. ND Lea Consultant which focused on the aspect of pavement was used as the method for Vehicle Operating Cost. An economic feasibility analysis was used to determine the appropriate strategy using which strategy has a cheaper fee. The results of the calculation of routine roadwork every 1 year during 9 years were Rp3.459.436.869,42 and periodic roadwork 3 years for 9 years was Rp5.021.403.850,96. The total operating cost of car vehicles due to routine maintenance once a year during 9 years was Rp4.391.248.161,16 and periodic maintenance for 3 years during the 9 years was Rp4.391.248.161,16. Therefore, the efficient handling strategy was routine maintenance once a year. It was because this alternative has cheaper than periodic maintenance. Ruas Jalan Raya Candipuro, Kecamatan Candipuro Kabupaten Lumajang merupakan ruas jalan yang dilewati truck pengangkut pasir sehingga ruas jalan ini menerima beban berlebih. Hal ini dapat dilihat dari adanya kerusakan berlubang, retak rambut, retak memanjang dan melintang, retak tepi dan pelepasan butiran. Kerusakan jalan dapat mengganggu kenyamanan maupun keselamatan pengendara dan dapat mempengaruhi Biaya Operasi Kendaraan (BOK). Terdapat 2 metode perbaikan jalan pada penelitian ini, metode pertama adalah secara rutin setiap 1 tahun sekali dan metode kedua secara berkala setiap 3 tahun sekali selama 9 tahun untuk mengetahui biaya yang paling efisien untuk perbaikan jalan serta biaya operasi terhadap kendaraan. Metode untuk Biaya Operasi Kendaraan menggunakan ND Lea Consultant yang menitikberatkan pada aspek perkerasan jalan. Analisa kelayakan ekonomi digunakan untuk penentuan stategi yang sesuai dengan memilih biaya yang paling kecil, sehingga efisien dari segi biaya. Hasil dari perhitungan untuk perbaikan jalan secara rutin setiap 1 tahun sekali selama 9 tahun adalah Rp3.459.436.869,42 dan perbaikan jalan secara berkala 3 tahun sekali selama 9 tahun adalah Rp5.021.403.850,96. Total Biaya Operasi Kendaraan mobil akibat pemeliharaan rutin 1 tahun sekali selama 9 tahun adalah Rp4.391.248.161,16 dan pemeliharaan berkala 3 tahun sekali selama 9 tahun adalah Rp4.941.996.380,06. Strategi penanganan yang efektif adalah pemeliharaan rutin 1 tahun sekali, karena alternatif ini memiliki biaya yang lebih kecil daripada pemeliharaan berkala.

If an incident occurs on the road, the normal flow of traffic stream is interrupted and the road capacity reduces. This thus leads to huge social, economical losses, such as traffic congestion, air pollution, etc. This study was conducted to examine an effect on an incident management system by carrying out an simulation analysis and an social cost analysis. For the simulation analysis, incidents in a normal situation were compared with those in an incidental situation and thus travel time, queue length, and accident duration were selected as an evaluation indicator. It was analyzed that after an incident situation occurs, the length of vehicle in waiting rapidly increases and thus travel time also largely increases. To make an social cost analysis, vehicle operation cost (VOC) and vehicle operation time (VOT) were used an index. The results showed that travel time cost per driver and vehicle in an incidental situation all increased, compared with that in a normal situation. It was also observed that the longer the lasting hours are, the higher the travel time increases.

In article the question at the choice of the rolling stock of passenger motor transport in the BRT system which provides movements of buses on specially allocated and often obgorodzheny strips, that is its full isolation on the road from other means of transport is considered. For increase in passenger capacity in the BRT system use three-link buses and trolleybuses. Along with indisputable advantages of three-link buses and trolleybuses also shortcomings - the worst maneuverability and stability of the movement in comparison with two-link are inherent in them. Besides, the efficiency of operation of such cars is provided with a passenger traffic which during the day can change many times. Therefore the road train as a part of two (or three) the buses or trolleybuses working in connection, і which passenger capacity similar to the jointed buses and trolleybuses can become perspective. In rush hours the bus train, and in interpeak the period - each bus separately works (the possible parking of one bus at allocated to the platform). In view of restriction of the maximum length of the bus train at the level of 24.26 m, as buses as making road trains, we will accept the 8th meter buses MAZ 206. Passenger capacity of such bus is 72 passenger, the power of the traction engine - 160 kW. The expediency of use of three-link hook-on road train is proved by the conducted researches that MAZ 206 with a total length up to 26 m and with a passenger capacity up to 220 passengers in the BRT system consists of three same buses. It is shown that the total power of engines is necessary for the movement of such bus train with a speed of 25 m/s has to make 300 kW while for one bus at the movement with the same speed it has to be at the level of 135 kW. It demonstrates about economic feasibility of use of the bus train from three buses working in connection because for their movement in all range of speeds there is enough power of two engines, that is one of buses can be used as the passive trailer that will lead to improvement of fuel profitability of the bus train. It is established that on maneuverability indicators three links the hook-on road train considerably exceeds three links pivotally - the jointed bus. So, the dimensional lane of the hook-on bus train at execution of the most typical maneuvers by it during the work on a city route does not exceed 3.9 and 4.1 m at turns respectively on 900 and 1800 that it is much less, than for three links pivotally the jointed bus 24 m long respectively of 6.8 and 8.2 m.

<p><span>The modeling of a car is essentially done by taking into consideration the driving terrain, traffic conditions, driver’s behavior and various other factors which may directly or indirectly affect the vehicle’s performance. A vehicle is modeled for given specifications and constraints like maximum speed, maximum acceleration, and braking time, appropriate suspension for the gradient of the road and fuel consumption. Henceforth, a profound study and analysis of different drive cycles are essential. A time dependent drive cycle is a condensed form of data that helps us to determine the time taken to conduct the driving test on the road. This article highlights the development of a real driving cycle in the area of Tamilnadu, India. On-road vehicle’s speeds versus time data were obtained along the selected route. The data obtained were analyzed first and then a new driving cycle was developed.</span></p>

Computerized traffic modeling makes it possible to find out the modification needs to assess the traffic flow on the roads and detect likely problem areas in order to take timely measures to eliminate them. Competent preparation of a road network formation plan based on the acquired information makes it possible to reduce the load on the road transport line, avoid traffic jams, and also reduce the average time spent by drivers on the roads. The macroscopic and microscopic models of the cars flow were analyzed by authors to implement the computer model. The article considered the model of the cellular automata by Nagel–Schreckenberg, with the author’s addition that takes into account the presence of the road sections inaccessible for driving in. The need to modify the lane change algorithm was implemented: the condition of the need to change the lane when car is meeting an inaccessible road section was added. And also the “polite” drivers algorithm for bypassing inaccessible areas with a high density of the traffic flows was proposed. Such a model is realized on Python programming language. An analysis of vehicles behavior with different traffic density and location of inaccessible road sections for two- and three-lane roads was carried out based on that model modification.

Is “the new modernism” in domestic architecture—sometimes called “internationalism”—a useful step on the road toward sustainable buildings? Mindless recreations of traditional forms from other times and places are no better, as many writers have noted, but any building's natural and cultural context must play a fundamental role in the design, materials selection, and even the detailing, if sustainability is to be more readily achieved. The role of place-based planning has been well researched and reported (Clarke 2006; Mant 1998, 2000; NSW Department of Urban Affairs and Planning 2001). Less well understood is the role of “localness” in building design. This informs the overall form of buildings, and their detailing, as well as their technical functionality. A local understanding stems from a sense of materials, climate, and indigenous or local culture, and informs the design process at every level. In this article, the position of internationalist domestic architecture (espoused in glossy architecture publications) is criticised, drawing also on previous research (a case study of the outcomes of a place-based planning instrument, by the author, and a joint paper on locality-based design written jointly with Trevor King). The internationalist design approach is shown not to provide culturally appropriate or technically sustainable buildings.
