Cellular automata simulation of traffic including cars and bicycles

摘要: Abstract As ‘greening’ of all aspects human activity becomes mainstream, transportation science is also increasingly focused around sustainability. Modal co-existence between motorised and non-motorised traffic on urban networks is, in this context, particular interest for flow modelling. The main modelling problems here are posed by the heterogeneity vehicles, including size dynamics, complex interactions at intersections. Herein we address these with a novel technique, based one-dimensional cellular automata components, network infrastructure its occupancy vehicles. We use approach, together corresponding vehicle behaviour model, to simulate combined car bicycle two elemental scenarios—examples components that would be used building an arbitrary network. Results simulations performed scenarios, (i) stretch road (ii) intersection causing conflict cars bicycles sharing lane, presented analysed.
