Transition Period from Today to Fully Autonomous
项目名称: Transition Period from Today to Fully Autonomous
摘要: Thanks to innovations from Silicon Valley, what was once thought to be a timeline that would introduce autonomous vehicles by 2035 has turned into a race to produce autonomous vehicles as fast as possible; now, the horizon for commercially available autonomous vehicles appears to be at the beginning of the next decade. However, connected autonomous vehicles (CAVs) will coexist with regular vehicles for several decades, and understanding traffic patterns during the transition period is critical to support planning and operations decisions. While behavioral modeling tools may be used to conduct such an assessment, it is also important to consider that models may require substantial changes in order to capture the impact of CAVs on traffic flow. This research will work to understand the challenges of capturing the impacts of CAVS for different traffic models. Propose adequate methodologies to incorporate CAVs into the traffic models used in this project and estimate model parameters to reflect the impact of CAVs in the selected traffic model.
