Troutbeck developed analytical equations based on driver gap acceptance characteristics at Australian Road Research Board [9].
This is achieved by incorporating different vehicle classes to represent the heterogeneous traffic environment, driver gap acceptance, and lane change parameters.
It can incorporate both geometry of the roundabout and driver gap acceptance behavior and hence is the most accurate to estimate capacity compared to all the methods available.
This is because VISSIM incorporates the geometry of the roundabout which is coded using links and connectors with greater precision, and the driver gap acceptance behavior which is controlled by the priority rules.
Moreover, binary explanatory variables such as type of interval accepted by the driver (gap or lag), aggressive or non-aggressive maneuvers, which are used to address the driver characteristics can be incorporated into the logit model.
The response variable is the gap acceptance or rejection of a right turning vehicle from a minor road (left-hand drive rule followed in India), and the independent variables considered are gap duration, type of interval accepted by the minor street vehicle's driver (gap or lag), forced entry of the minor street vehicles and clearing time (CT).

In this article, we review the use of 2- and 4-mm flow driver gaps in the shield modules and the use of 1-mm gaps along the tee-vane in the front water header to obtain a good flow distribution in both the first wall and shield modules for 7 and 13.
This study investigated young (20 40 years) and old (55 75 years) drivers' gap acceptance performance in simulated day and night driving conditions in a Baseline condition (STOP sign only) and four intersection decision support (IDS) conditions.
Zohdy et al. [10] analyzed the effects of wait time and rain intensity on drivers' gap acceptance behavior.
The safety performance study considered left-turning driver's gap acceptance behavior and the severity of traffic conflict events between left-turning vehicles and pedestrians.
At single-lane roundabouts, the constraints to the vehicular trajectories imposed by the curvilinear geometric design and the driver's gap acceptance behaviour are expected to produce an impact of the heavy vehicles on the quality of traffic flow different from that produced on freeways and two-lane highways or other at-grade intersections.
