Modeling Freeway Lane Changing Behavior
Drivers continuously evaluate the surrounding traffic and the roadway environment, and make decisions about lanes and travel speed. The objective of this thesis is to develop a lane changing model that can be used in microscopic traffic simulation models to capture drivers' lane changing behavior. Lane change is modeled as a sequence of four steps: decision to consider a lane change, choice of ...
متن کاملEmpirical study of lane-changing behavior on three Chinese freeways
Lane-changing (LC) behavior is investigated on Chinese freeways, where the driving circumstances are relatively aggressive. Three data sets were collected from urban expressways and an intercity highway in the form of traffic videos. Different aspects of LC behaviors are analyzed, i.e., the LC rate, motivation, target lane choice and impact on traffic. The results suggest that LC is a transient...
متن کاملMacroscopic Modeling of Managed Lane-Freeway Networks
We propose a macroscopic modeling framework for networks of freeways equipped with managed lanes. Two types of managed lane configuration are considered: full-access, where vehicles can switch between the general purpose (GP) and the managed lanes anywhere; and separated, where such switching is allowed only at certain locations called gates. The proposed framework is based on widely-used first...
متن کاملSUMO’s Lane-Changing Model
The SUMO application suite [1, 2] provides tools for the Simulation Of Urban MObility. It consists of a microscopic simulator for multimodal road traffic and a host of applications for preparing simulation input data (network import and modification, traffic import, routing) and for working with simulation outputs. The microscopic driving dynamics of road vehicles are determined by the interpla...
متن کاملGeography and Economic Development: Some Empirical Findings
comprehensive set of countries with populations of 1 million or more in 1994. In total, our data include 5.507 billion people, of an estimated global population in 1994 of 5.601 billion, or 98.3 percent of the total world population. The main countries missing from the sample, because of unavailability of data, are: Afghanistan, Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Cambodia, Cuba, Iraq, Lebanon, and ...
