A safety analysis of roundabouts and turbo roundabouts based on Petri nets [PDF]
Traffic Injury Prevention, 2019 Objective: In this work, a roundabout and a turbo roundabout model are compared and previous modeling with continuous Petri nets and safety are analyzed through indicators of complexity. Petri nets are a graphic and mathematical representation that allow a faithful modeling of urban systems.

Performance Analysis of Basic Turbo-Roundabouts in Urban Context
Procedia, Social and Behavioral Sciences, 2012 AbstractA turbo roundabout is a new type of canalized multilane intersection in which the physical separation between lanes helps to prevent side collisions when crossing the roundabout. This paper presents an estimation of capacity, delays and level of service of basic turbo roundabouts in undersaturation conditions, considering both vehicle flow and ...
