A Microsimulation Model of a Congested Freeway using VISSIM
A procedure for constructing and calibrating a detailed model of a freeway using VISSIM is presented and applied to a 15-mile stretch of I-210 West in Pasadena, California. This test site provides several challenges for microscopic modeling: an HOV lane with an intermittent barrier, a heavy freeway connector, 20 metered onramps with and without HOV bypass lanes, and three interacting bottleneck...
متن کاملMicrosimulation Model Development Environments
This paper describes some of the results of an analysis of new software technology, which can be used to develop microsimulation models. Searching for microsimulation software development environment, the author concludes that opportunities of contemporary software technology are not exhausted; Web-based application development could provide better software architecture while fulfilling user re...
متن کاملSafety aspects of freeway weaving sections
One source of vehicle conflict is the freeway weaving section, where a merge and diverge in close proximity require vehicles either entering or exiting the freeway to execute one or more lane changes. Using accident data for a portion of Southern California, we examined accidents that occurred on three types of weaving sections defined in traffic engineering: Type A, where every merging or dive...
متن کاملDevelopment of a Microsimulation Program to Study Freeway Ramp Merging Process in Congested Traffic Conditions
This work describes a micro simulation program that is developed to study freeway ramp merging phenomena under congested traffic conditions. First, the results of extensive macroscopic and microscopic studies are used to establish a model for the behaviour of merging drivers. A theoretical framework for modeling the ramp and freeway lag driver acceleration-deceleration behaviour is then present...
متن کاملDeveloping a Model for Estimating Weaving and Non-Weaving Speed within Highways Weaving Segments (Tehran)
In weaving section due to a strong need for lane changing, a type of turbulence is created in traffic flow; so, the speedand the capacity of the weaving section decreases. Therefore, investigation of the weaving section is very important.However, due to shortage of the manual for urban principal arterials (highways), calibration of these models is necessary.One of these models...
