Capacity drop (CD) at overloaded bottlenecks is a puzzling traffic flow phenomenon with some internal and complicated mechanisms the microscopic level. not only important for theory modelling, but also significant control. A model evaluating control measures needs to be able reproduce capacity in order deliver reliable evaluation results. This paper delivers comprehensive overview on subject fr...

In line with globally shared environmental sustainability goals, the shift towards citizen-friendly mobility is changing way people move through cities and road user behaviour. Building a sustainable transport requires design knowledge to develop increasingly green infrastructures monitoring impacts from mobile crowdsourced data. this view, paper presents an empirically based methodology that i...

Traffic simulation software is becoming increasingly popular as more cities worldwide use it to better manage their crowded traffic networks. An important requirement for such software is the ability to produce accurate results in real time, requiring great computation resources. This work proposes an ASIC-based hardware accelerated approach for the AIMSUN traffic simulator, taking advantage of...

This paper presents an ecological (eco) driving system based on prediction of the preceding vehicle using model predictive control. At any measured road-traffic states it computes the optimal vehicle control input using the models of the vehicle dynamics and fuel consumption. The prediction model the preceding vehicle is formulated based on experimentally obtained driving data. The proposed sys...

Introduction: Currently, hamburger roundabouts with traffic signal control have limited application in the road networks of large cities. During analysis scientific and technical literature, we established that it does not contain any systematic information on possibility their or methods to determine parameters. Purpose study: We aimed adapt Webster’s method design control, considering specifi...

This paper presents the use of the Aimsun microsimulation program to simulate vehicle violating behaviors and observe their impact on road traffic crash risk. Plugins for violations of speeding, slow driving, and abrupt stopping were developed using Aimsun's API and SDK module. A safety analysis plugin for investigating probability of rear-end collisions was developed, and a method for analyzin...
