• Abstract

  The objective of this project is to recalibrate VISSIM's and CORSIM's heavy vehicle performance model using data on the instantaneous speed of a truck as it travels along a highway segment composed of several grades of different lengths and magnitudes. Truck speed data were collected using differential GPS. Model calibration will be achieved by means of a genetic algorithm already coded a…

  Calibration of the vehicular performance model of highway traffic flow simulation models, BP.IC

• Abstract

  The objective is to assess the impact of the weather conditions and luminosity on traffic operations on two-lane highways in the state of São Paulo. The literature suggests that there is a reduction in capacity and level of service under inclement weather and during the night. This study will combine traffic data and weather data to assess possible changes in speed-flow curves for each co…

  Impact of meteorological conditions on traffic flow on two-lane highways, BP.IC

• Abstract

  The Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), whose the last version is known as HCM2000, is the main reference used in Brazil and in the world to analyze the capacity and the quality of service on highways. However, the HCM2000 is often used without adaptations to the local conditions, despite the manual itself warns that this should be done. HCM adaptations have been developed in many countries in…

  Measures of effectiveness for quality of service evaluation on two-lane rural highways in Brazil, BP.DR

• Abstract

  This project aims to develop a part of the candidate's PhD thesis, whose goal is to obtain a method for analysis of quality of service on two-lane, rural highways in Brazil. To determine level of service in this kind of highway, the Highway Capacity Manual 2010 (HCM2010) propose that Percent Time-Spent-Following (PTSF) and Average Travel Speed (ATS) have to be used. However, PTSF is impos…
