Evaluation and Analysis of Traffic Headway Characteristics on Rural Freeways, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Nassiri, Habibollah (Supervisor)
Abstract
Vehicle headway distribution plays an important role in various traffic engineering aspects such as capacity and level of service analysis and simulation issues. Although many headway models have been developed over the past decades, few have investigated the effects of vehicle’s type and its position in the traffic lanes on headway distributions. In this research, time headway data were collected at three different freeways using video camera. The collected data were analyzed and modeled for four different categories (i.e., car-car, car-truck, truck-car, and truck-truck) and under two traffic conditions of platooning and non-platoonig. Four types of probability distribution functions of...
