In the main focus of interest is the description of analytical models, which are verified by the results of Monte-Carlo-Methods. The advantage of analytical models (verified, but not derived by simulation methods) is their flexibility with respect to possible generalizations. For instance, several random distributions of the flow incoming to the traffic signal can be compared. The attention will be directed at the question, how the primary headway H (analyzed in front of the traffic signal) is mapped to the headway H' analyzed behind of the traffic signal and how the random distribution of H is mapped to that of H'. For the traffic flow in front of the traffic signal several models will be discussed. The first case considers the situation, that busses operate on a common lane with the individual motor car traffic and the traffic flow is saturated. In the second situation, busses operate on a separated bus lane. Moreover, a mixed situation is discussed to model as close to reality as possible.}, subject = {Angewandte Informatik}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RudnickiWainainaHempel2003, author = {Rudnicki, Andrzej and Wainaina, Simon and Hempel, Lorenz}, title = {Optimization of street lane usage}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.353}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-3539}, year = {2003}, abstract = {This paper contributes to discussion on introduction of exclusive lane for public transport. Analyses of results have been presented on effectiveness of usage of a 4 - lane and a 6 - lane street with and without an exclusive lane for buses. Two basic sub-models have been applied: - the binary logit model for modal split estimation; it takes into consideration the relation of travel time performed by private cars to public transport, - the polynomial model for predicting link impedance; the real travel time is affected by relation of traffic volume to the design capacity The parameters of both sub-models have been calibrated for the Polish conditions. The relationships are determined between number of person trips and traffic volume of buses/private cars, market share of public transport in motorised trips, average travel time lost in trips, average operation cost. An iterative technique addresses a feedback between the modal split and traffic volumes. Numerical calculations by use of EXCEL and MATLAB were carried out. Typical values of corridor length, occupancy rate of passenger car, design capacity of the bus, access and egress time to and from the parking/bus-stop in urban areas were applied. On the basis of the estimated results, the marginal parameter values: number of people carried at which separated lane for buses is most effective , traffic volume for private cars, traffic volume for buses and share of public transport in trips have been got by consideration of the average travel time lost and operational cost as criteria: Then introduction of street lanes with and without exclusive lane for buses in relation to number of person trips can be optimized.}, subject = {{\"O}ffentlicher Personennahverkehr}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{DudekRudnickiHempel2000, author = {Dudek, Mariusz and Rudnicki, Andrzej and Hempel, Lorenz}, title = {Zum Zusammenhang zwischen strukturellen und funktionellen Parametern eines Verkehrsnetzes}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.598}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-5985}, year = {2000}, abstract = {Im Vortrag wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit zwischen den strukturellen Parametern Dispersion eines Verkehrsnetzes bzw. der Kennziffer der Unterentwicklung eines Verkehrsnetzes und den mittleren Fahrzeiten bzgl. unterschiedlicher Verkehrsbedarfsmatrizen ein Zusammenhang besteht.

The reasons of occurance of overcrowded vehicles have been listed. The factor of service unreliability on account of irregularity has been determined. It is probability of the event, that the passenger finds departing vehicle fully filled, i.e. when all places seating and standing are occupied or condition of the travel, which would be not acceptable for passenger. Large dispersion of headways (i.e. irregularity) increases probability of such situations. To calculate the mentioned factor, the computer simulation was used. Both, passenger arrivals and vehicle operation have been modelled as stochastic interacted processes. Distributions of headways and passenger arrivals have been fixed by statistical methods. The >maximal capacity< of a vehicle has been determined. The set of parameters values for simulation runs has been given. The transformed results of computer simulation are series of nomographs for determination of a factor value. They were prepared for many types of trams and city buses, but only one nomograph has been presented. Difficulties in verification of model were discussed. Recommendations for rational utilisation level of public transport means capacity in the condition of randomness of passenger arrivals and disturbances in vehicle operation have been proposed. The other possibilities of service unreliability have been mentioned.
