The Passenger Car Equivalent Factors for Heavy Vehicles on Turbo Roundabouts [PDF]
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019 The presence of heavy and slower vehicles within the traffic stream significantly reduces traffic capacity. This reduction increases with the higher participation of heavy vehicles in the stream, which, compared to passenger cars, move at a lower speed ...

Determining passenger car equivalent (PCEs) for pretimed signalized intersections with severe motorcycle composition using Bayesian linear regression. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Pretimed signalized intersection is known as a common source of congestion, especially in urban heterogeneous traffic. Furthermore, the accuracy of saturation flow rate is found to cause efficient and vital capacity estimation, in order to ensure optimal

Passenger Car Equivalents for Heavy Vehicles at Roundabouts. a Synthesis Review [PDF]
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019 Passenger Car Equivalents (PCEs in the following) are used to transform a mixed fleet of vehicles into a fleet of equivalent passenger cars and to analyze capacity and level-of-service of roads and intersections.

Estimation of Passenger Car Equivalent Value for Unsignalized Intersections in Yogyakarta
Media Komunikasi Teknik Sipil, 2023 Passenger Car Equivalent (PCE) is expected to be very accurate because it is very important in determining the capacity, degree of saturation, and handling of unsignalized intersections. Several methods have been used to estimate the PCE value, but based

Delay-based Passenger Car Equivalent at Signalized Intersections in Iran
Promet (Zagreb), 2017 Due to their different sizes and operational characteristics, vehicles other than passenger cars have a different influence on traffic operations especially at intersections.

Passenger Car Equivalent Estimation for Rural Highways: Methodological Review
Transportation Research Procedia, 2020 Abstract Level of service (LOS) determination is carried out with respect to the base stream which contains only passenger cars in the traffic stream. The actual traffic stream rarely contains only passenger cars, giving rise to the heterogeneous traffic conditions.
