Case study is placed in Zilina, the city on the north of Slovakia, where the single lane roundabout has a great congestion problem not just during peak hours. Configurations of the roundabout are evaluated and compared from their performance parameters using microsimulations and theoretical models. ...
We also calculate the mean delay of whole roundabout and compare it with the actual mean delay. The analytical results for traffic delays are validated via field data obtained from the single-lane roundabout. Finally the level of service of the roundabout is analyzed. 展开 ...

Roundabout design is an iterative process consisting of a preliminary geometry design, geometry performance checks, and the estimation of intersection functionality (based on the results of analytical or regression models). Since both roundabout geometry design procedures and traffic characteristics vary ...
RoundaboutPhase diagramDensity profilesUsing the cellular automata model, we numerically study the traffic dynamic in a single lane roundabout system of four entry/exit points. The boundaries are controlled by the injecting rates α 1 , α 2 and the extracting rate β. Both the system with and ...
The number of conflicts for a single-lane roundabout was predicted as a function of approach entry, circulation, and slip lane traffic flows and was determined to be sensitive to the slip lane exit type. Results confirmed that conflicts in the merge area were more frequent than in the ...
Using the cellular automata model, we numerically study the traffic dynamic in a single lane roundabout system of four entry/exit points. The boundaries are controlled by the injecting rates alpha(1), alpha(2) and the extracting rate beta. Both the system with and without Splitter Islands of ...
In this paper, we examine the impact of vehicles executing a full turn or U-turn in a single-lane roundabout system using a cellular automaton model. We investigate how increasing the number of these U-turning vehicles affects traffic flow characteristics and energy dissipation. Our findings ...
Finally, we have investigated the effect of the braking probability P on the interior lane of the roundabout. We have found that the increase of P raises the spontaneous jam formation on the ring. Thus, enlarges the maximum current and the jamming phase while the free flow phase decreases....
Roundabout planners and designers are often faced with situations where a multi-laneroundabout will be required to handle the design-year traffic volumes, but where a single-laneroundabout would be sufficient for a number of years. Due to issues of safety, complexity,driver familiarity, and ...
