Efficiency analysis during calibration of traffic microsimulation models in conflicting intersections near Universidad del Azuay, using Aimsun 8.1

Abstract:

In recent years, the University of Azuay has become an attraction and generation equipment of motorized travel in Cuenca city, increasing the levels congestion at intersections located in direct influence area, with the purpose of improving operational conditions of accessibility to the study center, its operational conditions have been evaluated through microsimulations. The present research develops a comparative analysis of the efficiency in the calibration of traffic scenarios using the Aimsun 8.1, the comparison parameters to establish the best adjustment scenario between simulated data and real data are vehicle flows and speeds; the results obtained guarantee that the delay times and residual queue at the most relevant intersections of the study area, enabling the traffic management measures implemented to be correct and respond to reality.
