More Information
Summary:Cellular automaton has long been become the main modeling tool for traffic flow simulation. But the related calculated vehicle velocities are not continuous. This would cause some difficulties for experimental checking. Imaginary slope algorithm based on the deflection curve of a built-in beam could reveal the smoothness of a real procedure validly. A traffic flow simulation model taking advantages of both of above two kind modeling methods would be proposed herein. The proposed model would give continuous vehicle velocities and satisfy the geometrical restriction conditions and velocities restriction conditions. Also it would take stochastic parameters to reveal the personalities of the drivers.
