道路瓶颈前车辆强制变道汇流过程模拟研究

建立了基于车辆强制变道汇流行为的微观交通动力学模型,模拟分析了道路瓶颈影响下的交通流量、车道速度分布和时空图等3个宏观交通流特征和变道距离、行程时间等2个微观交通流特征。结果表明：瓶颈道路上任意截面的总流量均可表征道路的整体通行能力;中高车流密度下,道路瓶颈可使道路总流量降低10%~35%,并造成17%~42%的车辆行程时间延误;道路瓶颈对其上游相当长的区域内车辆具有减速效应;道路瓶颈前车辆强制变道距离的99分位值可以作为交通信息面板位置设定的依据。

Simulation on Vehicles Mandatory Lane Changing and Merging Process in case of Road Bottleneck

A microscopic dynamic traffic flow model based on vehicle's mandatory lane changing behavior is established. Under the condition of road bottleneck, three macroscopic traffic flow characteristics of traffic flow, lane speed distribution and space-time diagram, and two microscopic traffic flow characteristics of merging distance and vehicle's travel time are analyzed. The simulation results show that, the total flow of arbitrary cross section of the bottleneck road can represent the overall traffic capacity, and the road bottleneck can reduce the total traffic flow by 10% to 35%, and cause a delay of 17% to 42% to the vehicle travel time under the condition of moderate and high traffic density. The road bottleneck has a deceleration effect on a certain long area of the upper reaches of the road. The ninety-ninth percentile of the merging distance of vehicle's mandatory lane changing can be used as the reference for the location setting of the traffic information board.
