Evaluating Traffic Efficiency and Safety by Varying Truck Platoon Characteristics in a Critical Traffic Situation

Faber, Timo (author), Sharma, Salil (author), Snelder, M. (author), Klunder, Gerdien (author), Tavasszy, Lorant (author), van Lint, J.W.C. (author)

Truck platooning is the application of cooperative adaptive cruise control where multiple trucks are electronically linked using vehicle-to-vehicle communication. Although truck platoons might bring fuel savings and emission reductions, their interactions with surrounding traffic and resulting impact on traffic operations and safety are not...

Improvement of Network Performance by In-Vehicle Routing Using Floating Car Data

Klunder, G.A. (author), Taale, Henk (author), Kester, L (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)

This paper describes a study which gives insight into the size of improvement that is possible with individual in-car routing advice based on the actual traffic situation derived from floating car data (FCD). It also gives an idea about the required penetration rate of floating car data needed to achieve a certain degree of improvement. The...

The effect of inaccurate traffic data for ramp metering: Comparing loop detectors and cameras using information utility

Klunder, G.A. (author), Taale, H. (author), Kester, L. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)

This paper introduces a topic which is of growing interest in the traffic control and management community, namely the relation between traffic data quality and the efficiency of traffic management. After some explanatory background and state of the art, it will become clear that no standard approach is available for traffic engineers to...

Datafusie - wat wordt ermee bedoeld en wat heb je eraan?

Klunder, G. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author), Kester, L. (author), Taale, H. (author)

Heb je het met iemand over verkeersdata, dan valt – naast de zo populaire kreet ‘big data’ – bijna altijd de term datafusie. In veel gevallen is het echter helemaal niet zo duidelijk wat daar nu precies mee wordt bedoeld en waarom het zinvol zou zijn. In deze tutorial daarom een korte introductie. We gaan daarbij vooral in op de kwaliteit van...

The Impact of Loop Detector Distance and Floating Car Data Penetration Rate on Queue Tail Warning

Klunder, G.A. (author), Taale, H. (author), Hoogendoorn, S.P. (author)

There is a growing interest in the traffic community about the relation between traffic data quality and the efficiency of traffic management. Data collection is expensive and if the same level of traffic performance can be reached with less data or if traffic management becomes more efficient with better data, then that is interesting for a lot...

Integrating a macro emission model with a macroscopic traffic model

Klunder, G.A. (author), Stelwagen, U. (author), Taale, H. (author)

This paper presents a macro emission module for macroscopic traffic models to be used for assessment of ITS and traffic management. It especially focuses on emission estimates for different intersection types. It provides emission values for CO, CO2, HC, NOx, and PM10. It is applied and validated for a macroscopic traffic model developed by the...

Reducing travel delay by in-car advice on speed, headway and lane use based on downstream traffic flow conditions - a simulation study

Schakel, W.J. (author), Klunder, G. (author), van Arem, B. (author), Harmsen, E. (author), Hagenzieker, M.P. (author)

A new advisory ADAS system is implemented in micro simulation to asses the effects on traffic flow as well as on safety. The system uses loop detector data from which situations may be recognized where advices are given to drivers in-car. Advice is given on speed, headway and lane use. Effectively the system allows drivers to respond to...
