Modeling Uninterrupted Highway Traffic Flow Using an Anisotropic Mesoscopic Simulation Approach

Chiu, Yi-Chang / Zhou, Liang / Zhang, H. Michael

This paper proposes an Anisotropic Mesoscopic Traffic Simulation (AMTS) model that is shown to exhibit distinct advantages in modelling traffic flow dynamics. The AMTS model explicitly represents individual vehicles, but assigns only macroscopic movement characteristics to them. This paradigm is of particular advantages when used in the simulation-based Dynamic Traffic Assignment (DTA) systems that have been under active developments in the last decade. This paper discusses basic traffic properties and the AMTS model, and demonstrates its capability through numerical analysis.
