Summary
Data-driven simulation of large traffic networks using trajectory data. This project aims to develop a low-cost, data-driven framework that builds a traffic simulation model automatically and directly from vehicle trajectory data to enable rapid and reliable analysis of large-scale traffic networks. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of transport engineering using an innovative approach to inferring travel behaviours, movement patterns and traffic dynamics from increasingl ....Data-driven simulation of large traffic networks using trajectory data. This project aims to develop a low-cost, data-driven framework that builds a traffic simulation model automatically and directly from vehicle trajectory data to enable rapid and reliable analysis of large-scale traffic networks. The project expects to generate new knowledge in the area of transport engineering using an innovative approach to inferring travel behaviours, movement patterns and traffic dynamics from increasingly available urban trajectory data. Expected outcomes include improved decision support for urban planners and traffic operators and enhanced traffic management and incident response capabilities, providing significant social, economic and environment benefits through optimised road use and urban flow.Read moreRead less

Summary
Modelling mixed traffic of traditional, connected, and automated vehicles. This project plans to address the challenge of efficiently operating mixed traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. The rapid advancement of technologies is currently turning connected and automated vehicles from science fiction into science fact. However, there are no existing traffic flow models capable of reproducing features of mixed traffic flow consisting of traditional, connected and automated ....Modelling mixed traffic of traditional, connected, and automated vehicles. This project plans to address the challenge of efficiently operating mixed traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. The rapid advancement of technologies is currently turning connected and automated vehicles from science fiction into science fact. However, there are no existing traffic flow models capable of reproducing features of mixed traffic flow consisting of traditional, connected and automated vehicles. This project aims to address this knowledge deficit and develop an analytical tool able to accurately model mixed traffic flow. This new knowledge and model are prerequisites to effective operation and control of traffic flow of traditional, connected and automated vehicles.Read moreRead less
