Researchers have extended the classical Payne-Whitham traffic model so that the gap to the vehicle ahead controls both ...

This chapter presents the results of the literature review for operational traffic simulation models. Sources compiled for the literature review include guidance documents (general and DOT-specific), ...

Researchers have calibrated an analytical extreme value model with Chinese weigh-in-motion data, finding that shape and ...

PTV Group, part of Umovity, has announced the integration of PTV Vissim, its leading traffic simulation software, with rFpro, a high-fidelity driving simulation solution suite used by leading automoti ...

Defense is in a race to innovate. Adversaries are compressing the time between technological discovery, development, fielding and adaptation. The U.S. defense acquisition system must respond by ...

Simulation models guide million-dollar inventory decisions, staffing patterns that affect patient care and investment strategies that manage pension funds. Yet many organizations still treat them as ...

Predictive analytics allows data professionals to identify trends, forecast outcomes and test assumptions using data. When these capabilities are applied to simulation modeling, they make models more ...

Traffic simulation modeling is one tool used by many state departments of transportation (DOTs) to improve the operations of their transportation systems. Operational traffic simulation models can be ...
