Assessment of feasibility of placing the parking space of passenger cars on the basis of simulation modeling

Abstract

The article deals with the issues of assessing the development of parking systems of passenger cars in large cities based on the use of the simulation modeling method. With the help of AnyLogic software, a simulation model for evaluating the feasibility of parking space placement has been developed. The proposed simulation model simulates the movement of vehicles on a section of the road network (RN) and determines the number of cars that could not park due to the lack of parking spaces. Three calculators are built into the simulation model. The first calculator calculates the required number of parking spaces based on standard values, depending on the purpose of the object near which the parking space is planned. The second calculator allows you to determine the preliminary cost of the project, depending on the type of parking space. The third calculator evaluates the efficiency of the project, changes such indicators as the required number of cars, the average time spent by cars in the system under study, their average speed, the number of car stops. Using the developed model allows you to determine changes in the values of traffic flow indicators and choose the optimal type of parking space, based on a preliminary assessment of the expected economic effect.
