Abstract

Traffic simulation is a widely used method applied in the research on traffic modelling, planning and development of traffic networks and systems. From the literature study, a variety traffic simulation models were found in experiments and applications with aims to imaginary real traffic operations. The traffic simulation models can be categorised into three namely, microscopic modelling, macroscopic modelling and mesoscopic modelling. This report is aimed to overview these traffic simulation models, in term of its function, limitation and application.

Summary

Introduction

Traffic modelling is aimed to accurately recreate traffic as observed and measured on street. Traffic modelling assumed the appearance of a traffic system without replicating. It was developed based on modeller’s experience that integrate the mathematical models into traffic system [1]. Traffic modelling plays an important part in traffic engineering. It can be applied to plan and manage the traffic within certain road network [2]. Making a smooth traffic at an intersection and etc [3]
