  1. MATSim gridlock modeling A Sandwich of Topics • MATSim book Andreas Horni IVT ETH Zürich December 2014 • Data management • My 2 cents on career & • job search

  2. MATSim Gridlocks: Problem • “a state of severe road congestion arising when continuous queues of vehicles block an entire network of intersecting streets, bringing traffic in all directions to a complete standstill.” (Oxford English Dictionary, 2014). • Look also at heavy traffic jams • Why: • Gridlocks only roughly covered in current version of microsimulations • e.g., average working day traffic • In MATSim engineered out!

  3. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP I: Congestion events: Zurich truck accident

  4. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP I: Congestion events: Zurich truck accident

  5. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP I: Congestion events: Zurich truck accident • 17-18 o’clock

  6. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP II: MATSim gridlock modeling & MFDs • counts • sim (SC increased)

  7. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP II: MATSim gridlock modeling & MFDs • Artificial gridlocks • Engineering out artificial gridlocks • and real gridlocks/heavy jams • increasing SC • stuck time-> force to next link • NO tunnel closing: 23:00, SC Factor = 1.0 • NetCap MFD

  8. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP II: MATSim gridlock modeling & MFDs • NO tunnel closing: 23:00, SC Factor = 1.0 • Agents to inflexible in rerouting • (Charypar-Diss, p.99) • Micro- • Withinday-Planning

  9. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP II: MATSim gridlock modeling & MFDs • Bucheggplatz: 7:00 • GTFs or Grether Signals • not crucial but natural

  10. MATSim Gridlocks: ETH Seed Project – Work Packages • WP III: Risk assessment • punctual disturbances • Estimate based on • accident stats • Approximate for all l • with psim (surrogate model) • Gridlock/heavy traffic: threshold?

  11. MATSim book • how? • method • when? • for what? • purpose • who? • what? • for whom? • authors & editors • reader + scanner • content

  12. for what? & for whom? • introductory text for new MATSim users and API-users • quick reference for new MATSim developers • starting point for in-depth methodological discussions on MATSim & microsimulation • main reference & marketing tool • opportunity for clean-up & contextualization • “communication channel” between MATSim groups: (“e.g., scenarios, projects, functionality …”) • for the fun of it! • reader • “scanner”

  13. MATSim book • how? • method • when? • for what? • purpose • who? • what? • for whom? • authors & editors • reader + scanner • content

  14. what? • guided tour through MATSim: PART I: Using MATSim … Introducing MATSim Let’s Get Started A Closer Look at Scoring Scenarios (32) • “becoming a MATSim nerd in 32 chapters” PART II: Extending MATSim … Available Modules and How to Use Them & Contributing Code 6.-24. Individual Modules Development Process & Contributing to MATSim How to Write Your Own Modules and Contribute Them to MATSim PART III: Understanding MATSim Basic Procedure and System Characteristics Agent-Based Traffic Assignment MATSim as a Monte-Carlo Engine Microeconomic Interpretation of MATSim for Benefit-Cost Analysis Queueing Interpretation of Kinematic Waves Research Avenues

  15. MATSim book • how? • method • when? • for what? • purpose • who? • what? • for whom? • authors & editors • reader + scanner • content

  16. how?; embedment in MATSim docu • implicit knowledge • guided • transfer & contextualize • MATSim book 1.0 • condense & contextualize • presentations • condense & contextualize • condense & contextualize • publications link & contextualize (transfer, duplication clean-up) • tutorials • not so guided • 3 guides • javadoc • webpage • FAQ • examples docu • mailing lists

  17. MATSim book • how? • chapters deadline: today • print: 2015 • method • when? • for what? • purpose • who? • what? • for whom? • authors & editors • reader + scanner • content • 3 editors • > 40 authors
