Title: SIMULATION OF TRAFFIC PERFORMANCE, VEHICLE EMISSIONS, AND FUEL CONSUMPTION AT INTERSECTIONS: THE TEXAS-II MODEL
Accession Number: 00396846
Record Type: Component
Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: TEXAS-II is a computer simulation model that teams the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic, the Environmental Protection Agency Modal Analysis Model for light-duty vehicles, and a new heavy-duty vehicle model to make quantitative estimates of several traffic performance parameters, emissions, and fuel consumption that will result from mixed traffic using any practical intersection configuration operating under signalized, signed, or unsigned traffic control. The quantitative information produced by the model is useful for identifying existing intersection problems and for evaluating feasible alternative solutions. TEXAS-II has been run more than 300 times in an extensive series of experiments designed to study the relative effects of specified intersection environments on traffic delay, queue lengths, emissions, and fuel consumption.
