COUPLING OF CONCURRENT MACROSCOPIC AND MICROSCOPIC TRAFFIC FLOW MODELS USING HYBRID STOCHASTIC AND DETERMINISTIC DISAGGREGATION

The paper addresses the general problem of coupling macroscopic traffic data to microscopic traffic flow models, regardless of their source. The approach presented in this paper provides key structures and all mathematical solutions including a new hybrid disaggregator required for carrying out coupling of concurrent microscopic and macroscopic models. The results of the coupling of models are provided. The results show that the hybrid disaggregator can be used to couple microscopic models to aggregated traffic data from a wide range of non concurrent sources. Another possible application is the hybrid microscopic and macroscopic simulation of road networks.
