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]
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]
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.

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