APF-Based Car Following Behavior Considering Lateral Distance

An improved car-following model considering variable safety headway distance

( a Department of Civil Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, China) Abstract: Considering high speed following on expressway or highway, an improved car-following model is developed in this paper by introducing variable safety headway distance. Stability analysis of the new model is carried out using the control theory method. Finally, numerical simulations are implemented and the ...

Intelligent Control System Design for Car Following Maneuver Based on the Driver’s Instantaneous Behavior

Due to the increasing demand for traveling in public transportation systems and increasing traffic of vehicles, nowadays vehicles are getting to be intelligent to increase safety, reduce the probability of accident and also financial costs. Therefore, today, most vehicles are equipped with multiple safety control and vehicle navigation systems. In the process of developing such systems, simulat...

Prediction of Car Following Behavior Based on the Instantaneous Reaction Time using an ANFIS-CART Based Model

Car-following models are among the most important components of micro traffic flow simulation which is studiedby transportation experts to evaluate new applications of intelligent transportation systems. Until now, several carfollowingmodels have been proposed. An obvious disadvantage of the former models is the great number of parameterswhich are difficult to calibrate. In th...

Understanding Driver Car-Following Behavior Using a Fuzzy Logic Car-Following Model

A New Model of Car Following Behavior Based on Lane Change Effects Using Anticipation and Evaluation Idea

This paper aims to investigate a new and intricate behavior of immediate follower during the lane change of leader vehicle. Accordingly, the mentioned situation is a transient state in car following behavior during which the follower vehicle considerably deviates from conventional car following models for a limited time, which is a complex state including lateral and longitudinal movement simul...
