Simulation of delay variation at uncontrolled intersections for mixed traffic conditions
Abstract: Mixed traffic is composed of different vehicle types with varying geometric and acceleration characteristics. Capacity and delay are the two parameters mainly used to measure the effectiveness of uncontrolled intersections. The variation in the lengths and widths of a vehicle type also has an effect on the capacity and delay. Three intersections and three vehicle types are considered for the study. Also, different vehicle compositions scenarios (C1 to C11) were …
