Considering the impact of informatization condition, vehicles on the road network are divided into connected automated vehicles (CAVs) and human-driven vehicles (HDVs), which follow the principle of system optimization and stochastic user equilibrium, respectively. Taking the road network reserve capacity maximization model under the condition of road capacity constraint as the upper-level programming and the traffic assignment model under heterogeneous flow environment as the lower level programming, then a bilevel programming model is constructed. Among them, the nonuniform demand growth multiplier is adopted for each OD pair to reflect the inconsistency of traffic demand structure growth, and the calculation of link capacity is related to the market penetration of CAVs. The incremental method, method of successive averages, and simulated annealing algorithm are used to solve the model, and the effects of different market penetration on road network capacity, travel time, and saturation are analyzed through a numerical example. The relevant data under different weights are normalized and the optimal deployment scheme of CAVs and HDVs in different periods is obtained by comprehensive evaluation. Meanwhile, the mixed equilibrium flow state is explored under the premise of given market penetration to verify the feasibility of the model and algorithm.
Based on analytical and simulation methods, this paper discusses the path choice behavior of mixed traffic flow with autonomous vehicles, advanced traveler information systems (ATIS) vehicles and ordinary vehicles, aiming to promote the development of autonomous vehicles. Firstly, a bi-level programming model of mixed traffic flow assignments constrained by link capacity is established to minimize travel time. Subsequently, the algorithm based on the incremental allocation method and method of successive averages is proposed to solve the model. Through a numerical example, the road network capacity under different modes is obtained, the impact of market penetration on travel time is analyzed, and the state and characteristics of single equilibrium flow and mixed equilibrium flow are explored. Analysis results show that the road network can be maximized based on saving travel time when all vehicles are autonomous, especially when the autonomous lane is adopted. The travel time can be shortened by increasing the market penetration of autonomous vehicles and ATIS vehicles, while the former is more effective. However, the popularization of autonomous vehicles cannot be realized in the short term; the market penetration of autonomous vehicles and ATIS vehicles can be set to 0.2 and 0.6, respectively, during the introduction period.
