Study on FLOWSIM and its Application for Isolated Signal-ized Intersection Assessment
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently the traffic related problems have become strategically important, due to the continuously increasing vehicle number. As a result, microscopic simulation software has become an efficient method in traffic engineering for its cost-effectiveness and safety characteristics. In this paper, a new fuzzy logic based simulation software (FLOWSIM) is introduced, which can reflect the mixed traffic flow phenomenon in China better. The fuzzy logic based car-following model and lane-changing model are explained in detail. Furthermore, its applications for mixed traffic flow management in mid-size cities and for signalized intersection management assessment in large cities are illustrated by examples in China. Finally, further study objectives are discussed.

Strain gage mounted on the surface of the shafts with specified directions are one of the common methods for measurement of the torsion in shafts. The most critical problem in utilization of this method, particularly in the online monitoring of torsional vibration and instantaneous torque in rotary systems, is due to its signal transfer process. In this paper, a simple, practical and feasible m...
متن کاملAn Optimal Dynamic Control Method for an Isolated Intersection Using Fuzzy Systems
Traffic flow systems are nonlinear and uncertain, so it is very difficult to find their optimal points. In traditional traffic control systems, the traffic lights of crossings change in a fixed time period that is not optimal. On the other hand, most proposed systems are sufficiently capable of coping with the uncertainties of traffic flow. To solve this problem, there is a need to develop expe...
متن کاملDeveloping an Analytical Model and Simulation of The Contraflow Left-Turn Lane at Signalized Intersections
At some intersections, excessive queue lengths may spill out of the left-turn bay and block the through lanes, jeopardizing level of service for the entire intersection. One of the most effective plans recently presented by the researchers is the "Contraflow left-turn lane" (CLL) In this method, left-turn vehicles will use the nearest lane in the opposite direction in addition to the usual left...
متن کاملTransit Signal Priority: Proposing a Novel Algorithm to Decrease Delay and Environmental Impacts in BRT Route Intersections
Intersections are considered as the most critical parts of the bus rapid transit (BRT) system. Transit signal priority is one of the efficient solutions to reduce BRT fleet delays at intersections. The aim of this study is to propose a new algorithm to decrease the BRT fleet delays at actuated intersections, while reducing the negative impacts on different approaches. The adaptive strategy is a...
