The Effect of Nonstandard Vehicle's Special Behavior on Mixed-Traffic Modeling

In most urban traffics in China, mix-traffic streams in urban traffic are composed of motorized and non-motorized vehicles. At present, models suitable for the analysis of traffic streams with non-standard vehicles rarely exist, and most available models are limited in scope and effectiveness. Inevitably, those existent approaches require much improvement. The characteristics and special driver behaviors of non-standard vehicles in the mixed traffic streams will be introduced in this paper, and some factors of these special behaviors to the mixed traffic modeling will be represented as well. An approach of simulating vehicles locating is adopted, and the decision-making procedure based on fuzzy logic rules control is discussed. According to me above ideas, models suitable for mixed traffic are established. Moreover, the model has been calibrated and tested with data from local area of Xi'an, a city in China.
