This is a simulation I made as part of my final-year project. It showcases how the Intelligent Driver Model implementation of an autonomous vehicle can stabilise traffic on a single-lane circular road. Initially, there are 30 regular vehicles on the road. Without any traffic control measures, the instability in traffic emerges, leading to a phantom traffic jam formation. At 150 s, a single autonomous vehicle is introduced. It eliminates the disturbance and enables a stable flow of vehicles. The Desired Velocity parameter of the AV is adjusted to determine its optimal value for maintaining the stability of the platoon. Finally, at 550 s the autonomous vehicle is removed to demonstrate how the traffic returns to its default, unstable state. IDM Traffic Simulator GitHub: https://lnkd.in/dzWyaHcG
This is awesome Jan, well done!
Amazing stuff Jan. 👏

4moThis looks great! I’d love to read the final dissertation if it’s available anywhere?
