This is a very important subject for two reasons. The first and most obvious is that it enables the user to achieve more with a given level of resources. The second, and perhaps more subtle, is that it provides a much higher volume of test data by which existing models may be refined and new ones may be investigated. Peripheral productivity has been concentrated largely in the area of signalized intersection analysis (HCM Chapter 9). The main reason is that the Chapter 9 methodology is simply not practical to implement without automated assistance. Several developers have produced software which claims to perform a faithful implementation of the HCM technique. This paper goes beyond the routine software for performing capacity analysis. It considers several new peripheral features which have been developed recently and are not yet familiar to most HCM users.","PeriodicalId":123979,"journal":{"name":"Highway Capacity and Level of Service","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117204479","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Because of the differences in traffic legislation and driver behaviour between the Netherlands and the USA, the HCM cannot be used for the design of weaving sections on Dutch freeways. To create a new set of standards for weaving sections, the micro simulation model FOSIM is used. FOSIM is developed in the USA for simulation of traffic flow on multi-lane freeways and is fully revised for use in the Netherlands. The paper presents the results of calibration and validation of FOSIM for weaving sections on Dutch freeways. Moreover, it describes a method of using FOSIM as a tool to create up to date standards for all sorts of freeway sections.","PeriodicalId":123979,"journal":{"name":"Highway Capacity and Level of Service","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115963059","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
