Impacts of (Cooperative) Adaptive Cruise Control Systems on Traffic Flow: A simulation case study on the effects of (cooperative) adaptive cruise control on the A15 highway

This thesis is assessing the effects of (Cooperative) Adaptive Cruise Control using microscopic and mesoscopic simulations in Aimsun. The Gipps car-following model is manipulated in such a way that it represents (C)ACC driving behavior to a satisfactory extent. A simulation network of a part of the A15 highway containing the junctions Ridderkerk...
