Development of traffic micro-simulation model for motorway merges with ramp metering (2011)
Thesis
Al-Obaedi, J. Development of traffic micro-simulation model for motorway merges with ramp metering. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

This thesis focuses on the development of a micro-simulation model for motorway merge
sections. The aim is to study the effectiveness of applying some traffic management
controls and particularly focuses on applying ramp metering (RM) systems.

Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections (2011)
Thesis
Al-Jameel, H. Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections. (Thesis). Salford : University of Salford

Weaving sections have proved to cause bottlenecks on motorways because of the relatively
frequent lane changes in these sections. The use of analytical models in assessing weaving
section capacity (such as those suggested by the Highway Capacity Ma... Read More about Developing a simulation model to evaluate the capacity of weaving sections.
