Abstract

This paper presents a model to evaluate how heterogeneities in road traffic caused by different driver’s profiles affect the dynamics of traffic on a road with an unsigned intersection. These driver’s profiles, defined by the use of different acceleration policies, are not observed in usual measurements and can only be evaluated through computational simulations. A modified Nagel-Schreckenberg (NaSch) cellular automata model with a Probability Density Function (PDF) Beta is used to model these distinct behaviors, where each driver profile is represented by a Beta PDF. The analysis of space-time diagrams herein obtained and traditional traffic diagrams corroborate the importance of taking into account different profiles of drivers on the road.
