Based on the analysis of the microscopic simulations and macroscopic experiments, weaker interfacial adsorption (c: 2 0.2) or lower surface roughness (L: 7.85 1.96 Å) or higher flow velocity (v: 10 80 m/s) leads to lower density and shear viscosity in the interfacial layer.
To contribute to the body of knowledge, this paper adopts a microscopic simulation based method, and researches the validity of travel time and travel time reliability indices to quantify LOS thresholds for basic freeway sections.
The current generation of macroscopic and microscopic simulation packages do not have control algorithms that incorporate many of the advanced features now available in commercial traffic control hardware.
This paper presents a microscopic simulation laboratory, microscopic traffic flow simulator (MITSIM Lab, and its application to evaluation of freeway traffic control.
In order to offer a good means to evaluate the impact that exogenous information may exert on drivers' decision making, we propose an extension to an existing microscopic simulation model called Dynamic Route Assignment Combining User Learning and microsimulAtion (DRACULA).
The fuzzy logic-based approach also provides an innovative way to simulate pedestrian movements in microscopic simulation models.
In order to optimise the traffic flow on highway A12 and on the neighbouring secondary roads a network control system has been developed and tested in the microscopic simulation model VISSIM.
This study established a microscopic simulation evaluation index system on access traffic optimization, and obtained the required parameters by VISSIM simulations.
This paper proposes a methodology that allows high-resolution traffic and emissions models, known as microscopic simulation models, to be efficiently used to address transportation optimization problems that account for complex environmental metrics.
On the contrary, DES does not require the specific physical environment and passenger entity, making it more efficient and easier to calibrate than microscopic simulation models.
