Abstract:

In order to overcome the defect of fixed safety distance in Optimal Velocity (OV) model and its related derivative generalized force (GF) model and full velocity difference (FVD) model, a car-following model with improving safety distance based on the OV model is proposed in this paper. The improvements of the proposed model are analyzed theoretically. Then, according to the proposed model, the simulation frameworks are developed to analyze the impact of three model parameters on traffic flow stability. These parameters are the density of traffic flow on the road, the maximum velocity for driving vehicle and the time of driver's reaction delay. The simulation can truly reproduce the propagation state of traffic flow. Finally, using the data from U.S. NGSIM Database as samples, the accuracy and effectiveness of the model presented in this paper are verified after testing with cluster analysis by comparing with OV model, GF model and FVD model.

Key words: engineering of communications and transportation system, car?following model, numerical simulation, traffic flow theory
