Key Variables of Merging Behaviour: Empirical Comparison between Two Sites and Assessment of Gap Acceptance Theory

open access: yesProcedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2013
This paper presents two empirical trajectory data sets focusing on the merging behaviour on a motorway, both in the Netherlands and in France. A careful review of the literature shows that the main theories explaining this behaviour rely on the hypothesis of gap acceptance, i.e. the fact that each driver has a certain threshold value depending on among

Estimation of critical gaps and follow-up times at median uncontrolled T-intersection [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Transport, 2021
The efficiency of the entire transportation system depends on the capacity of the individual elements that make up the given network. Point-type elements of the road and street network include intersections of different types. Critical gaps and follow-up

PRACTICAL ASPECTS OF MEASURING CRITICAL GAPS AND FOLLOW-UP TIMES AT MEDIAN UNCONTROLLED T-INTERSECTIONS [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Journal of Silesian University of Technology. Series Transport, 2021
Estimation of critical gaps and follow-up times between vehicles at uncontrolled intersections is an essential step in estimating the capacity of these objects and assessment of traffic conditions.

A comprehensive acceptance model for smart home services [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Data and Network Science, 2022
Smart home services (SHSs) afford users an effective lifestyle management system, which provides human-oriented networking of smart devices and applications that enable users to control their homes from anywhere at any time. Despite the benefits of SHSs,

COMPARISON OF CAPACITY MODELS OF DIFFERENT THEORETICAL SETTINGS ON THE EXAMPLE OF A SMALL CITY ROUNDABOUT IN THE CITY OF MOSTAR [PDF]

open access: yese-Zbornik. Elektronički Zbornik Radova Građevinskog Fakulteta, 2020
Many roundabout capacity models are present in the world and they are classified into three key groups: empirical models, theoretical models, and microscopic simulation models. In Bosnia and Herzegovina and the Republic of Croatia, there is no roundabout

Comparison of different capacity models for traffic circles [PDF]

open access: yesTransport, 2009
Traffic circles have been used in many countries all over the world. Traffic circles can be defined as intersections where traffic circulates around a center island where priority is given to the vehicles entering from branches and are designed ...

Roundabout Capacity Estimation Model Considering Driver Behaviour on the Exiting and Entry Flows

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2022
Roundabout capacity estimation has been the subject of several types of research in recent decades. Most of the analyses are based on the empirical or analytical models (e.g.

Capacity Prediction Model Based on Limited Priority Gap‐Acceptance Theory at Multilane Roundabouts [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Problems in Engineering, 2014
Capacity is an important design parameter for roundabouts, and it is the premise of computing their delay and queue. Roundabout capacity has been studied for decades, and empirical regression model and gap‐acceptance model are the two main methods to predict it.

Multi-lane Roundabout Capacity Evaluation

open access: yesFrontiers in Built Environment, 2017
Although two-lane roundabouts theoretically exhibit excellent operating performance, in practice, safety problems arise because of inappropriate driving behavior.
