Campus emergency evacuation traffic management plan
详细信息
文摘
This thesis was motivated to simulate the evacuation traffic of Mississippi Stated University (MSU) main campus using the Path-Following logic of TSIS/CORSIM and to evaluate a set of traffic management plans.
Three scenarios of traffic management plans were developed and tested. A NCT of 123 minutes was projected if evacuate without any plan. In comparison, under a pre-planned traffic management plan the NCT would decrease to 39 minutes. Further, if implement contra flow the NCT would reduce to 21 minutes. If even further adjust the signal timing plans at the university exits a NCT of 20 minutes would be achieved.
The sensitivity analysis found that the NCT was sensitive to the CORSIM parameters of free flow speed, time to react to sudden deceleration of lead vehicle and the configuration of driver type, while the effects of discharge headway and start up lost time were not found to be significant.
Key words: emergency evacuation, traffic management, route plan, CORSIM, Path-Following, iteration
