This paper presents results of a study utilizing computer simulation of vehicular traffic in the downtown area of Garland, Texas. A general discrete digital simulation model, the Vehicle Traffic Simulator (VETRAS), developed by IBM Corporation, was used for the simulation. Using data supplied by the City of Garland, traffic patterns for three peak periods of daily operation---A.M., Noon, P.M.---were simulated. Two simulations were run for each period. In the first, intersections were controlled with signal settings currently in use in Garland. In the second, intersections were controlled by signal settings derived via a pattern optimization algorithm. A minimum interference technique was used to compute coordinated signal settings and offsets to maximize arterial and network performance.
The results show that arterial and network performance improves in each of the peak periods using the computed signal settings. Further, there is a direct relationship between volume and relative improvement. Estimated cost benefits for these improvements are also presented.
本文介绍了利用计算机模拟得克萨斯州加兰市区的车辆交通的研究结果。由IBM Corporation开发的通用离散数字仿真模型“车辆交通仿真器(VETRAS)”用于仿真。利用加兰市提供的数据,模拟了三个日常运营高峰时段的交通模式-上午,中午,下午。每个时期进行两次模拟。首先,路口使用Garland当前使用的信号设置进行控制。在第二个中,路口由通过模式优化算法得出的信号设置控制。使用最小干扰技术来计算协调的信号设置和偏移,以最大化动脉和网络性能。 P>
结果表明,使用计算得出的信号设置,在每个高峰时段内,动脉和网络性能都会得到改善。此外,数量与相对改进之间存在直接关系。还介绍了这些改进的估计成本收益。 P>
