Macroscopic Simulation for Urban Traffic Management. Volume 1: Executive Summary

摘要

This volume is an Executive Summary describing the TRAFLO macroscopic traffic simulation model which is a system of integrated component traffic simulation submodels and an equilibrium traffic assignment model. Each component model is described. The input requirements for TRAFLO are indicated as are the statistical measures of effectiveness produced as output by the model. These measures describe, in detail, the traffic operation, emissions and energy consumed on a large system of roadways of general configuration. Selected validation results are presented and estimates of computer costs are described.
