ARCHISIM: a behavioral multi-actors traffic simulation model for the study of a traffic system including ITS aspects

Résumé

Traffic phenomena come on the one hand from supply / demand mechanisms and on the other hand from the interactions between the various actors involved. Simulation models have been developed for several decades by traffic engineers to reproduce the phenomena. Based on the identification of observed traffic, they are unfortunately limited when the study is related to future situations (i.e. non existing, thus non observable, ones). Driver models have also been developed for decades by psychologists, but these models are also often very limited (i.e. they deal with very few and very specific driving tasks) and not operational (i.e. they are conceptual models). The simulation of the impact of a change in the traffic system is nevertheless a key issue, both from the safety and the capacity standpoints. The behaviour of drivers facing a new situation is extremely difficult to forecast, since human beings easily adapt their behaviour in response to infrastructure and equipments. They will not always use them according to designers' expectations (a rational use for collective optimisation) but, on the contrary, they very often follow individual issues, such as minimisation of constraints or economy of manoeuvres. These different standpoints often lead to incoherences between design and uses, which have a negative impact on safety as well as on capacity. Designing tools allowing a systemic approach of changes in the traffic system is the main objective of the INRETS MSIS department. Based on the joint use of a driving simulator and behavioural traffic simulation, the proposed approach (called "integrated approach") consists of a four stage iterative process which jointly uses a driving simulator and a behavioural microscopic traffic simulation model. To carry on studies according to this approach, MSIS team has designed a behavioural traffic simulation model and a driving simulator architecture, both novel
