This study proposes a cooperative lane‐changing control framework for multiple vehicles in freeway ramp merging areas, aiming to achieve safe and efficient merging. Specifically, multiple connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) form triplets to participate in cooperative lane‐changing. The framework...
