Reversible lanes and alternating one-way lanes May 2022 — Technical note #69 Marga DelgadoSenior Product Specialist In transport networks, the available infrastructure may vary through the day. In this technical note I’ll show you how to close lanes temporarily in one direction so that they can be used by traffic traveling in the other direction. Note that lanes in Aimsun Next are not two-way, so you’ll need to code the reversible lane in both directions and close the direction that [...]

Towards agent-based models: simulating multimodal transport systems Published on April 8, 2022 Lampros YfantisScientific Researcher at Aimsun How can we explicitly represent, simulate and evaluate within-day behavioural (demand) and operational (supply) dynamics in emerging multi-actor passenger and freight transport systems? The answer lies in agent-based simulation approaches, which Aimsun has been facilitating within the H2020 HARMONY project via its novel Aimsun Ride platform.The increasing [...]

Double Award Win for Abu Dhabi Team Published April 6, 2022 One of our most high-profile projects is the Abu Dhabi hybrid simulation transport model, which is part of the Emirate-wide STEAM+ transport modelling framework.In March, the Abu Dhabi Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) awarded the project team the Certificate of Appreciation for “distinguished practices in project execution.” Team leader, Oliver Capon, was singled out for special recognition, winning a Certificate of Excellence for his [...]

MFC and Battery Consumption Model April 2022 — Technical note #68 Geline CanayonProduct Specialist at Aimsun The Microscopic Free-flow aCceleration (MFC) Model accurately and consistently captures the acceleration dynamics of vehicles based on engine parameters, also considering the environmental conditions and driver behavior. This allows for a more accurate calculation of emissions and fuel consumption which are statistics influenced by vehicle dynamics. While the MFC introduces complexity to [...]

Mobility pattern prediction Published on March 3, 2022 Ferran TorrentSenior Data Scientist at Aimsun Aimsun Live predicts road traffic in real-time by simulating how mobility demand interacts with the infrastructure. Unlike purely data-driven methods, a simulation-based approach allows the system to not only predict traffic under recurrent conditions, but also deal with any changes in the infraestructure, such as incidents or changes to traffic control plans. This approach has three main require [...]

Transit Route Change traffic management action March 2022 — Technical note #67 Tessa HaymannProduct Specialist at Aimsun A new feature introduced in Next 22 is the Transit Route Change (Public Transport Route Change) traffic management action. This technical note will go over how to implement the action and ways in which it could be used. Note from version 22 that the default name for public transport is now transit unless this is changed in the users Aimsun Next preferences to English (United K [...]
