posted on 2018-07-20, 11:22 authored by Qiang (John) ZhaoA Synthetic Traffic SIMulation (ST-SIM) framework is constructed in this project. The framework
provides a computer-based platform for traffic research, consisting of three modules: Driver
Behaviour, Vehicle Dynamics, and Road Network modelling. Based on these models, ST-SIM can
construct and simulate a broad range of traffic scenarios, including accidents. The research in this
project has concentrated on the contribution of driver behaviour to the formation of normal traffic
and traffic failure.
ST-SIM has been designed and implemented using Agent-based modelling techniques. The
software has been validated using simulator-based driver collision avoidance behaviour from TRL
and applied to help the accident reconstruction work of On-The-Spot (OTS) team in the UK.
