Effect of Driver Scope Awareness in the Lane Changing Maneuvers Using Cellular Automaton Model

“…The advance analysis about lane-changing behavior has been done, which includes symmetric and asymmetric rules of lane-changing [16][17][18][19][20][21]. Symmetric rule can be considered as rules that threat both lanes equally, while asymmetric rule can be applied in special characters highway, like German highways simulation [22], where lane changes are dominated by right lane rather than left lane.…”

Spontaneous-braking and lane-changing effect on traffic congestion using cellular automata model applied to the two-lane traffic

“…The advance analysis about lane-changing behavior has been done, which includes symmetric and asymmetric rules of lane-changing [9][10][11][12][13][14]. Symmetric rule can be considered as rules that threat both lanes equally, while asymmetric rule can be applied in special characters highway, like German highways simulation [15], where lane changes are dominated by right lane rather than left lane.…”

Cellular Automata and Roundabout Traffic Simulation

“…With few simple rules the complexity of traffic (transition from free to congested traffic, lane inversion, stop and go traffic, nucleation of jams in correspondence of ramps etc.) can be reproduced in a way which is hardly achieved by models using differential equations ( [13], [10], [5], [4]). Being computationally extremely efficient, large scale simulations can be accomplished with low cost computers and traffic forecasts can be envisaged.…”
