  1. 6. Testing macroscopic traffic evacuation models for wildland-urban interface fires

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

    Author : Adam Ardinge; [2021]
    Keywords : WUI-NITY; WUI; V V; traffic evacuation; WUI fire evacuation; simulation model; verification testing; validation testing; Kincade; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : This thesis presents the verification and validation testing performed on the evacuation simulation platform WUI-NITY which has the aim of being a simulation tool for the integration of different layers, such as pedestrian, traffic and wildfire with evolving dynamic interactions. The present thesis aims at applying a set of verification tests and validation testing suitable for WUI-NITY with a focus on the traffic component. READ MORE

  3. 7. Link flow destination distribution estimation based on observed travel times for traffic prediction during incidents

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska högskolan

    Author : Anna Danielsson; Gabriella Gustafsson; [2020]
    Keywords : incident management; logit model; route choice estimation; route set generation; traffic flow modelling; traffic prediction;

    Abstract : In a lot of big cities, the traffic network is overloaded, with congestion and unnecessary emissions as consequence. Therefore, different traffic control methods are useful, especially in case of an incident. READ MORE

  4. 8. Traffic State Estimation for Signalized Intersections : A Combined Gaussian Process Bayesian Filter Approach

    University essay from KTH/Transportplanering

    Author : Michael Sederlin; [2020]
    Keywords : Traffic State Estimation; Traffic Flow modelling; Gaussian Processes; Bayesian Filtering; Kalman Filter; Traffic Signals; Intersection; Non-parametric;

    Abstract : Traffic State Estimation (TSE) is a vital component in traffic control which requires an accurate viewof the current traffic situation. Since there is no full sensor coverage and the collected measurementsare inflicted with random noise, statistical estimation techniques are necessary to accomplish this. READ MORE

  5. 9. Dynamic Modelling and Optimal Control of Autonomous Heavy-duty Vehicles

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Kartik Seshadri Chari; [2020]
    Keywords : Autonomous driving; Dynamic bicycle model; Magic Formula; Model matching; MPC; Clothoids; Autonom körning; Fordonsmodell; Modellanpassning; MPC; Klothoider;

    Abstract : Autonomous vehicles have gained much importance over the last decade owing to their promising capabilities like improvement in overall traffic flow, reduction in pollution and elimination of human errors. However, when it comes to long-distance transportation or working in complex isolated environments like mines, various factors such as safety, fuel efficiency, transportation cost, robustness, and accuracy become very critical.
