A Cellular Automaton Based System for Traffic Analyses on the Roundabout

The paper presents an analysis of the impact of road conditions, the distance between vehicles and the number of pedestrians on the roundabout capacity. The study was based on a developed cellular automaton (CA) model and the implemented simulation system. The developed CA model extends the basic traffic model with a braking mechanism. It also reflects the actual technical conditions of vehicles (acceleration and braking depending on the dimensions and functions of the vehicle, as well as the driving at a roundabout of different speeds that are appropriate for the size of the vehicle). The study was based on the example of a two-lane roundabout with four two-lane inlet roads.
