Modelling mixed traffic of traditional, connected, and automated vehicles

该项目计划解决有效运营传统、联网和自动化车辆的混合交通流的挑战。技术的快速进步目前正在将联网和自动化的车辆从科幻小说变成科学事实。然而，现有的交通流模型还没有能够再现由传统车辆、互联车辆和自动车辆组成的混合交通流的特征。该项目旨在解决这一知识不足的问题，并开发一种能够准确模拟混合交通流的分析工具。这种新的知识和模型是有效运行和控制传统、互联和自动化车辆交通流量的先决条件。

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.
