PREFACE

Resea.och Study Number 3-18-84-443, .. Texas Dia­mond-A Microscopic Simulation Model for Diamond Interchanges," was a three-and-one-half-year project con­ducted for the purpose of developing a highly detailed diamond interchange traffic simulation model. This ob­jective has been accomplished by expanding the capabil­ity of the original 1EXAS Model computer simulation package to include diamond interchanges. This approach provides the significant advantage to prospective users of having one simulation model that will simulate either single intersections or diamond interchanges. It also means that anyone familiar with the existing 1EXAS Model is also familiar with the new version which in­cludes diamond interchanges because, in all possible as­pects, from user-friendly interfaces to graphical output, the new version looks and feels like the previous version.

Actuated traffic controller choices for diamond inter­change simulation have been significantly expanded to include dual ring controllers operating under the "Figure 3, 4, 6 or 7" phase sequence patterns. Traffic control choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield, stop, and pretimed signalization.

The animated graphics feature for interpreting the output from the 1EXAS Model was also expanded to

include diamond interchanges. This feature consists of a microcomputer-driven animated graphics screen display of vehicles moving through an intersection in real-time or in a stop-action mode. This unique capability permits the user to define and evaluate a wide range of intersection and interchange design and traffic control alternatives by visual inspection of simulated traffic flow on a screen.

At this time, the 1EXAS Model for Intersection Traf­fic continues to run on VAX and CDC mini and main­frame computers in the original languages. The new Ver­sion 3.0 includes additional data-entry programs written in FORTRAN 77 which allow the user to build compat­ible data files and transport them to the mainframe through alphanumeric terminals networked to the main­frame.

The Safety and Maintenance Division, D-18T, and the Automation Division, D-19, of the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation have participated in all stages of the project work. Their timely and perti­nent suggestions have been extremely helpful in adapting the simulation model to practical applications.

ABSTRACT

The 1EXAS Model for Intersection Traffic has been revised and released as Version 3.0. The new Version 3.0 provides the capability of performing detailed computer simulation of diamond interchanges as well as single intersections. Traffic control choices for actuated dia­mond interchanges includes dual ring controllers operat­ing under "Figure 3, 4, 6, and 7" phase sequence patterns. The basic look and feel of earlier versions of the model have been retained to minimize needs for additional user training. The animated graphics feature has been ex­panded to include single intersections and diamond inter­changes. The progress of each individually-characterized

vehicle moving through a simulated intersection or inter­change is displayed in real-time or in stop-action on a microcomputer-driven graphics screen. This allows the user to study the overall traffic performance or to examine the behavior of any selected vehicle(s) in great detail. With Version 3.0 of the 1EXAS Model that is described in this report, alternative intersection or diamond inter­change designs and traffic-control schemes can be evalu­ated quickly and accurately in a timely and cost-effective manner.

SUMMARY

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic has been developed at the Center for Transportation Research at The University of Texas at Austin in cooperation with the State Department of Highways and Public Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. Continuing improvement of this powerful traffic simulation package has recently resulted in the addition of the capability for simulating a diamond interchange that is described in this report

Version 3.0 of the TEXAS Model provides all func­tions of previous versions plus the diamond interchange simulation capability. Available traffic control for dia­monds includes a full range of sign control schemes, as well as pretimed and actuated signals. The previously available actuated controller has been enhanced to pro­vide for user selection of dual ring controllers operating under the "Figure 3, 4, 6 or 7" phase sequence patterns. The interactive data-entry programs, which greatly ease the task of preparing input data for the Geometry Proces­sor (GEOPRO), the Driver-Vehicle Processor (DVPRO), and the Simulation Processor (SIMPRO) of the TEXAS Model, have been retained and improved in the new ver­sion of the package. The user is now able to quickly create input data for mirror images of external legs of diamond interchanges using a "similar to" edit command. A new edit command allowing column-wise editing of input data has also been added.

Appendix A is an updated users guide for Version 3.0, and it lists and describes each data item that must be

specified by TEXAS Model users. The methods for en­tering these data and for saving, recalling, and revising data files are described. A series of illustrative examples is also presented.

A pennanent library of typical intersection geometric configurations has been expanded to include a diamond interchange with unusual geometric features, while a de­fault diamond input data set provides users with typical input variable values. The user will often find that one of these pennanent library intersection arrangements or a de­fault arrangement is very similar to the intersection of interest and that it may be used with only minor changes. The pennanent library of intersection configurations is shown in hard copy in Appendix A.l.

The unique graphics display feature, available in pre­vious versions, has been extended to include diamond in­terchanges. The speed, position, and time relationship be­tween every simulated driver-vehicle unit and the inter­section geometry is displayed in real-time, or in stop-ac­tion, on a screen driven by a microcomputer. This ani­mated display allows the user to study the overall per­formance of traffic and traffic control at an intersection or to examine the behavior of an individual driver-vehicle unit in great detail, if desired. Alternative solutions to intersection or interchange problems can be evaluated quickly and economically by this technique.

IMPLEMENTATION STATEMENT

A TEXAS Model Version 3.0 has been developed, and it is recommended for implementation on the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation's computer system. The interactive data­entry programs utilize the V AX/Intergraph network for generating data files which are passed to the Department's IBM mainframes for execution of the actual simulation programs. With Version 3.0 of the TEXAS Model, data for a simulation run of a diamond interchange or a single intersection can be entered in less than half an hour. Graphical animation of the simulated traffic can then be

iv

displayed on a microcomputer for real-time observation of the results.

A further recommendation is that a series of schools or training sessions be given in order to demonstrate to SDHPT personnel the applicability of the TEXAS Model Version 3.0 for solving many day-to-day and special intersection or interchange problems. The ease of use, immediate availability of results, and capabilities of this powerful engineering tool have been enhanced considera­bly by the developments accomplished under this study.

CHAPTER 1. INTRODUCTION

There are hundreds of diamond interchanges operating in Texas and around the world today. Even though the basic configuration of these interchanges is similar, the details of geometry and traffic control differ considerably at each location, and the traffic demand varies markedly with re­spect to time at any given location. Traditional engineering techniques for evaluating the complex traffic operational environment at diamond interchanges have generally in­volved observation, interpretation, and interpolation of conditions at existing locations. Much has been learned about diamond interchange design and operation through these methods, but a satisfactory engineering evaluation of a specific diamond interchange situation, particularly of an unusual one, using these techniques is difficult if not impos­sible.

A feasible means for making an evaluation of the complex interaction of road geometry, traffic control schemes, and traffic operations at diamond interchanges has not existed previously, but computer simulation of the traffic environment at the two closely-spaced at-grade intersec­tions which comprise a diamond interchange can serve such a purpose. A microscopic computer simulation model which describes in sufficient detail the critical geometric features of the roadway, various traffic control schemes, and the expected behavior of individually-characterized driver­vehicle units as they respond to the static and dynamic diamond-interchange environment has been needed.

This report describes the development and application of such a model. The model is called the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) as it is based upon the.exis~ng TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Ref 1], whtch simulates only a single intersection. The TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) handles all ~ffic movements through the two closely-spaced at-grade Intersections of the diamond interchange as well as those on the internal lanes between them. The user-friendly features (see Ref 2) of the newest version of the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic have been included in the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) along with the real-time and stop-action animated-graphics displays of each simulated vehicle moving through the interchange.

The following sections of this chapter present a brief overview of the characteristics of the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic, and a description of the nature and capabilities of the additional features which have been incorporated into the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges). Signalization of diamond interchanges is discussed in Chapter 2, and the procedures that have been u.sed f<»: testing and verifying the new diamond-interchange stmulauon model are described in Chapter 3. Three appen­dices, consisting of (A) a comprehensive Guide to Data Entry fo.r Versi?n 3.0, (B) implementation of traffic signal control m Verston 3.0, and (C) a Primer for prospective

first-time users of this version of the TEXAS Model are also included.

TEXAS MODEL FOR INTERSECTION TRAFFIC - OVERVIEW

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Ref 1] is a powerful computer simulation tool which allows the user to ~v~l~ate in detail the complex interaction among mdivtdually-characterized driver-vehicle units as they operate in a defined intersection environment under a s~ified type of traffic control. This model deals only with vehicular traffic at a single intersection. In its current version, it includes a user -friendly data-entry process and an animated-graphics display of real-time movements of vehicles through the intersection on a monitor screen driven by an mM (or compatible) microcomputer [Ref 2]. The following paragraphs summarize the principal characteristics of the single-intersection model.

Structure of the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic includes four data processors: GEOPRO (Geometry), DVPRO (Driver-Vehicle), SIMPRO (Simulation), and EMPRO (Emissions) for describing, respectively, the geometric configurations, the stochastically arriving traffic, the behav­ior of traffic in response to the applicable traffic controls, and the emissions generated by the traffic. The structural rela­tionship among these data processors is shown in Fig 1-1.

GEOPRO defines the geometry of the intersection in the computer. It calculates vehicle paths along the lanes abutting the intersection and within the intersection. The number of intersection legs, together with their associated number of lanes and lane widths, define the intersection size and the location of any special lanes. The azimuth for each ~eg and ~e associated coordinates define the shape of the mtersectton. The allowed directional movements of traffic on the inbound lanes and the allowed movements on out­bound lanes define the directional use of the intersection.

DVPRO utilizes certain assigned characteristics for each class of driver and vehicle and generates attributes for each individual driver -vehicle unit; thus, each unit is charac­terized by inputs concerning driver class, vehicle class, desired speed, desired outbound intersection leg, and lateral inbo~nd lane position. All these attributes are generated by a umform probability distribution, except for the desired speed which is defined by a normal distribution. Each unit ~s sequentially ordered by queue-in time as defmed by the mput of a selected headway distribution. The total number of driver-vehicle units which must be generated by DVPRO is d~termined by the product of the input traffic volume, in vehicles per hour, and the minutes of time to be simulated.

SIMPRO simulates the traffiC behavior of each unit ac­cording to the momentary smrounding conditions including any traffic control device indications which might be appli­cable. Upon entering the inbound approach lane, the entry velocity of each unit is set so that the vehicle will neither exceed a selected desired speed nor collide with the unit immediately ahead of iL If the unit ahead is accelerating, or is ttaveling at its desired speed, the entering unit will enter the approach at its own desired speed. If the unit ahead is decelerating, the speed of the entering unit is set to a value which is less than its own desired speed. If there is no leading unit on the inbound lane, the unit enters with its desired speed. After entry, the unit is checked moment-by-moment within SIMPRO as to whether or not it is in a car-following situation. If it is not, the magnitude of required acceleration

or deceleration which is applicable at any given instant is calculated by linear interpolation between extreme values which are set for each vehicle class with respect to the desired speed and to zero speed. Maximum required accel­eration and deceleration occuratornearzero speed. and zero acceleration occurs at the maximum speed that each type of vehicle can attain. If the unit is in a car-following situation, the speed and acceleration of the unit interact with the speed and position of the unit ahead. Current and relative speeds and positions of all adjacent vehicles are thus utilized in determining the behavior of each driver-vehicle unit in the simulation model.

When car following or traffic control makes it necessary for a unit to accelerate or decelerate, the logic in SIMPRO provides for accelerating to the desired speed, accelerating to the speed of the unit ahead, decelerating to follow the unit ahead, or decelerating to the desired speed within the avail­able distance.

As the unit proceeds along the inbound approach lane, the location and the status of traffic control devices are checked moment by moment. The indication of the traffic control devices will apply to the unit as soon as the unit comes into the influence area of the device.

If stop signs control the intersection, SIMPRO lists the units stopped before the sign according to their arrival times and then releases them in a first-arrived-fU'St-served se­quence. If there are simultaneous arrivals on adjacent intersection legs, the unit to the right gets priority for earliest release.

If pre-timed signals control, each unit responds to the signal indications which appear in a defmed sequence and are of a specified duration for each phase. Each unit will attempt to go on a green indication after checking for intersection conflicts. If the unit is in the leading position and has cleared conflicts, the unit will enter the intersection. If a leading unit has stopped before the unit being examined, or if the leading unit is decelerating. the unit being examined will begin to stop. When the signal indication is red. each arriving unit will stop; however, a right-tum-on-red option is provided.

If control is by an actuated signal controller, the se­quence and duration of each indication is selected in re­sponse to the information received by the controller from the detectors. The logic for driver response to signal indications is, of course, the same as that described for the pre-timed signal. A detector actuation is defined by the time interval during which the front bumper of a unit has crossed the start of the detector but the rear bumper has not crossed the end of the detector. Actuations may cause the controller to con­tinue the phase or allow the phase to change when a maxi­mum time interval for that phase has elapsed or a sufficiently large gap occurs.

A unit is allowed to change into an adjacent lane if less delay can be expected. The geometric path of the lane­changing unit is a cosine curve. Each unit is processed

Page 10: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

incrementally in time from its entry onto the inbound lane to the end of the outbound lane. The length of each approach is specified. The instantaneous traffic behavior of each unit including speed, location, and time is written onto a tape by the TEXAS Model for subsequent use in the emission processor (EMPRO). Statistics about delays and queue lengths are also gathered by the TEXAS Model for evaluat­ing the performance of traffic at the intersection.

Delay statistics include the average of total delay and theaverageofstopdelayincurredbyeachvehicleprocessed. Each delay is summarized by left-tum, right-tum, and straight movement and by the total of these three permitted directional movements on each inbound approach. Total delay is the difference between travel time for a vehicle through the system and the time it would have taken the vehicle at its desired speed. Stop delay is the time spent by a vehicle which has a velocity less than 3 feet/second. Delay statistics show the overall influence of the intersection environment on traffic passing through the intersection. Comparison of the delays experienced by traffic making various directional movements indicates the interaction among traffic flows on the intersecting streets. Queue­length statistics include average queue length and maximum queue length. Both are measured in units of vehicles, not feeL Average queue length and maximum queue length are the averages taken for each inbound lane over any selected time interval.

EMPRO, the emissions processor, incorporates models to predict the instantaneous vehicle emissions of Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrocarbons (HC), Oxides of Nitrogen (NO ), and fuel flow (FF) for both light-duty vehicles and

X

heavy-duty vehicles. EMPRO utilizes information from SIMPRO about the instantaneous speed and acceleration of each vehicle to compute instantaneous vehicle emissions and fuel consumption at points along the vehicle path.

Data Entry to the User-Friendly TEXAS Model

As shown in Fig 1-1, data that are required for running the TEXAS Model are entered by the user through two computer data-entry programs called GDVDATA (Geome­try, Driver, Vehicle) and SIMDATA (Simulation). These are features of the user-friendly version of the model which were not included in the original mainframe computer ver­sion. All geometric data are specified in terms oflengths and angles.

In addition to the geometric data needed by the model, the user must enter data to characterize the drivers and vehicles which make up the traffic stream passing through a simulated intersection. The data-entry program GDVDATA also includes user aids for entering the data needed by the driver-vehicle processor (DVPRO) of the TEXAS Model.

For efficiency and for the convenience of the user, a per­manent library (see Fig 1-1 ), which contains 20 typical intersection configurations along with an associated traffic

3

pattern, has been created and stored within GDVDATA. Instructions for using and modifying data files copied from the permanent library are given through prompts on the screenandinRef2. A user-grouplibrary(seeFig1-1)isalso provided to allow users to develop, store, index, and retrieve conveniently their own data files for modification or for repeated use without modification.

Data that are needed by the simulation processor, SIMPRO, are entered through the data-entry program called SIMDATA (see Fig 1-1). This program pairs the entered data required by SIMPRO with data previously defined by using GDVDAT A or with data contained in a permanent library file within GDVDATA. Use of SIMDATA is de­scribed in Ref2 and through prompts and instructions on the screen.

Ani11111ted Graphics Display of TEXAS Model Output

Output from the TEXAS Model includes the instantane­ous speed, location, and time relationship for every simu­lated vehicle. These data are routinely written onto a tape for use by the emissions processor, EMPRO, or for other appli­cations (see Fig 1-1). The User-Friendly TEXAS Model provides a feature whereby this information can be dis­played graphically in real-time, or in stop-action, on a screen driven by an IBM PC-XT (or compatible) computer. Inter­section geometry is extracted from the files created by GDVDAT A and displayed on the screen; then, the position of each simulated vehicle is represented on the screen by an outline of the vehicle, scaled to size and color-coded accord­ing to performance capability, with respect to time. With this animated-graphics display, the user can study the over­all traffic performance at an intersection or examine in great detail the behavior of an individual vehicle in the traffic stream. A wide range of conditions can be defined and evaluated visually on the screen as well as in the form of tabular listings that give summary statistics about traffic and traffic-signal-controller performance.

The TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) is a computer simulation software package which provides the user with a tool for studying in great detail the interaction among individually-characterized driver-vehicle units as they approach and pass through the two closely-spaced at-grade intersections of a conventional diamond interchange with one-way traffic on the diagonal ramps that form two opposite legs of each intersection. Traffic control at these intersections may range from the rules-of-the-road, to traffic signs, to complex traffic-signal controls. The model incorporates all the basic features of the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Refs 1 and 2] and modifies them as needed to handle vehicular traffic

operating in the conventional diamond-interchange environment. The principal modifications and additions are: • Geometry is defmed for two adjacent intersections with connecting internal lanes. • Linking is provided in the simulation processor, SIM­PRO, for transferring each simulated driver-vehicle unit on an existing path within the fli'St intersection to an appropriate internal lane. The internal lanes then function as inbound lanes to the second intersection. • Drivers approaching an intersection look forward into and beyond the intersection and respond to other vehicles on or adjacent to their path and to traffic-control devices ahead when they are within the influence area of such a device.

Drivers merging into an outbound lane from an intersec­tion look back into the intersection and onto the outbound lane to check conflicts before entering the lane. • A signal-controller module to simulate actuated dia-mond-interchange controllers is provided. • Summary statistics are collected for every vehicle (a) from log-in to the system until log-out from the system, and (b) from log-in to an internal lane until log-out from the sys­tem.

An example of the geometry and traffic for a diamond interchange is included in the permanent library file of Version 3.0.

Each of these modifications and additions is discussed in some detail below. Most of the different operating features of the diamond-interchange version of the model are transparent to the user, but the user should be aware of their fundamental characteristics.

Geometry of the Diamond Interchange

In the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Inter­changes), the geometry of the interchange is configured as two adjacent, three-leg, at-grade intersections connected by a set of internal lanes (Fig 1-2). The intersections are designated as Left Intersection, L, and Right Intersection, R, with the centerline of the internal lanes oriented perpendicu­lar to the zero-degree leg angle as shown in Fig 1-2. Legs 2 and 5 and the internal lanes can handle either one-way or two-way traffic, but Legs 1, 3, 4, and 6 (the ramps) accom­modate only one-way traffic. Each leg is made up of one or more parallel lanes and the legs must be numbered as shown in Fig 1-2. The numbering sequence for inbound and outbound lanes is the same as that used in the User-Friendly TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Ref 2]. The num­bering sequence for the internal lanes is indicated by the pattern shown in Fig 1-2, wherein the lanes inbound toward Intersection Rare numbered ftrst, beginning at the centerline of the internal lanes and continuing outward until all these lanes are numbered; then, the lanes inbound toward Inter­section L are numbered with continuing serial numbers beginning at the centerline and continuing outward until all lanes are numbered. Curb returns must be numbered as shown in Fig 1-2. Entry of geometric data to GDVDATA

(Fig 1-1) follows the format of the User-Friendly TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Ref 2]. A series of screen prompts, including an on-screen representation of Fig 1-2, guide the user through the geometry data-entry process.

Linldng Lanes and Intersection Paths

Simulated driver-vehicle units moving through the diamond interchange may travel along inbound, internal, and outbound lanes as well as intersection paths generated by GEOPRO. Only the units which traverse both intersec­tions utilize the internal lanes. Therefore, internal lanes accept traffic only from the ftrSt(upstream) intersection and then function as inbound lanes to the second (downstream) intersection in the simulation processor, SIMPRO.

Driver Look-Ahead Feature

In SIMPRO, each simulated driver is provided with in­formation about the current traffic situation on his, and ad­jacent, lanes and paths, along with the indications of any applicable traffic control devices ahead. The influence area for a traffic control device is defmed dynamically for each simulated driver, and may extend for several hundred feet. In a conventional diamond interchange with closely-spaced intersections, the influence area for a traffic control device located at the second (downstream) intersection can affect drivers approaching the first (upstream) intersection, those in the ftrSt intersection, and those on the internal lanes. The TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) incor­porates features which allow all these drivers to respond to the influence of other vehicles and traffic-control devices located at and beyond the ftrSt intersection at the time the simulated driver makes a decision.

Conflict Checking Before Merging into an Outbound Lane

Right-turning vehicles merge into the outbound lanes from an intersection path. The model has been modified to allow the simulated drivers of such vehicles to check for po­tentially-conflicting vehicles in the intersection as well as on the outbound lane into which they propose to merge.

Signal-Controller Module for Diamond I nterclulnges

Traffic at diamond interchanges is frequently con­trolled by signals that are coordinated in an attempt to provide continuous movement of vehicles through both intersections. The signal controller for a diamond inter­change can be either pre-timed or actuated. In addition to the signal controllers incorporated in the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic, a special signal-controller module for actuated signals at diamond interchanges has been included in the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges). The functioning and use of this signal-controller simulation module is described in Chapter 2 and in Appendix B of this report. Screen prompts for entry of required data for both

pre-timed and actuated signal controllers are included in Version 3.0.

Summary Statistics for Diamond Interchange

In the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Inter­changes). statistics concerning the perfonnance of each driver-vehicle unit. and of the signal controller if used, are gathered during simulation and presented in summary form at the end of each run. For certain purposes. data concerning the cumulative experience of a driver-vehicle unit as it traversed its entire path through the interchange are desired. These data are accumulated in the TEXAS Model, Version

3.0 (Diamond Interchanges) from initial log-in at the outer end of the inbound lane to the first intersection until final log­out at the outer end of the outbound lane when the vehicle leaves the simulated interchange system. Another set of statistical data iS collected beginning with log -in to the outer end of an internal lane until final log-out at the outer end of the outbound lane when the vehicle leaves the simulated interchange system. The latter data set permits separate analysis of the perfonnance of traffic on the internal lanes and the second (downstream) intersection of the inter­change. Differences between the two data sets indicate the behavior of traffic at the first intersection traversed.

CHAPTER 2. DIAMOND INTERCHANGE TRAFFIC SIGNAL CONTROL

INTRODUCTION With flexible, traffic-responsive control of diamond

signalization now widely available at moderate cost, it is hard to imagine that 20 years ago, the operation of diamond interchange signalization was not understood by many traf­fic engineers. There was no real reason for this, for with only a few exceptions, diamond interchange signalization is no different from that at any other pair of closely spaced intersections controlled by multiphase traffic signals. These exceptions include:

1) The shorter distance between the two signalized inter­sections results in limited storage space for vehicles. Most diamond interchange signalization schemes provide progression between the two intersections to prevent the limited storage area from filling up. Lack of progression can result in vehicles queueing back across the intersection, resulting in gridlock.

2) In the event that progression is not provided between the intersections, the length of some phases must be carefully controlled to avoid gridlock. Also, many dia­monds have limited storage space between the inter­change and freeway off-ramps. If this storage space fills up, vehicles can spill back through the ramps onto the freeway, creating a serious safety problem.

As with any other intersection, the diamond can be operated under pretimed or traffic-actuated signal control. Current controller technology allows the engineer to imple­ment the best timing and phasing plan for the traffic condi­tions at hand, either in response to detector actuation pat­terns, time of day, or any other applicable criteria. What constitutes the "best" signal timing plan is the subject of this chapter.

HISTORY No uniform method for selecting timing and phasing

plans for diamond interchanges existed until research stud­ies began in the early 1960's on the operational characteris­tics and capacity of the diamond interchange. These studies were prompted by the concern of traffic engineers over the increasingly important role of diamond interchanges as freeways expanded out into rapidly growing suburban areas. The states of California and Texas led the research efforts.

Studies at Texas Transportation Institute, 1960~ 1962

Pinnell and Capelle [Ref 3] demonstrated that the dia­mond is capable of carrying high volumes of traffic effi­ciently. A single location with widely fluctuating demand conditions was evaluated in a field study during four after­noon peak traffic periods. The authors evaluated pretimed vs. traffic-actuated signal control and found that actuated operation resulted in reduced cycle lengths. The effect of

6

type of signal control on traffic delays was not measured in this study.

This study demonstrated that actuated control was possible with available controllers. At the time, signal equipment was electromechanical, and many practitioners did not think it technologically feasible to use actuated control at a diamond.

Also in this study, Pinnell and Capelle compared differ­ent diamond phasing patterns. No field trials were actually conducted to compare the operational characteristics of the different phasing plans; rather, the authors discussed (with­out field experiments) such qualitative issues as left turn storage, cycle lengths, and progression through the inter­change. The authors surmised that, since the four-phase overlap signal phasing pattern (discussed in the next section) uses available cycle time more efficiently, it should operate at lower cycle lengths, and thus cause less delay to traffic than other phasing plans which do not feature the overlap phase.

Capelle and Pinnell [Ref 4] used time-lapse film pho­tography to determine saturated flow rates at two inter­changeson theGulfFreeway in Houston. Intersections were fdmed with 16mm film at 10 fps from a 35-ft platform truck, and the data were used to measure headways and starting delay for "fully loaded" (saturated) approaches. The most significant fmding of this study was that double-lane turn movements have reduced capacity per lane when compared to single-lane turn movements.

Pinnell and Tutt [Ref 5] reviewed economic and opera­tional considerations for the justification of frontage roads. Topics covered included stage development, design life, surface street continuity, and saturated operation of diamond interchanges. Also discussed were the different capacity relationships for various designs of diamond interchanges, including two-level, three-level, and split diamond designs.

The California Diamond Project (1970-1971)

The California Diamond Project was undertaken in the late 1960's by Systems Development Corporation (SOC), a leading firm in the field of simulation and operations re­search, under the sponsorship of the California Department of Transportation. The objective of the project was to determine the feasibility of traffic-responsive control of diamond interchanges and to find the best way of optimizing signal timing plans. This project demonstrated the relative effectiveness of traffic-responsive control over pretimed control at a diamond, and paved the way for the acceptance of the Type 170 microprocessor-based controller as a stan­dard for diamond interchange control.

Model Development and Validation [Ref 6}. SOC re­searchers created two traffic simulation models, one macro­scopic, the other microscopic. Different strategies for opti­mizing signal phasing, splits, and offsets were evaluated,

Page 14: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

and both "before" and "after" timing plans were imple­mented on the macro and micro models. After field implem­entation of the improved signal plans, field measurements were made using the floating car technique to verify delay savings.

The microscopic model was validated with ttavel time data from two intersections. The two locations had different geometries, but both had heavy ttaffic. Six data sets were used: four from one intersection and two from another intersection. Each data set was derived from a sequence of 381 to 986 aerial photograph frames.

To validate the microscopic simulation model, Torre set al performed at -test to determine whether significant differ­ences existed between the mean travel time of all vehicles through the interchange in the film data sets and the mean ttavel time of all vehicles through the microscopic simula­tion model. With the exception of one of the six data sets, the differences were not significant at a 5 percent level, and the model was considered validated.

The macroscopic model was validated differently. One set (840 frames) of data was used to calibrate the model, and another (518 frames) was used to validate the model. The validation procedure used the vehicle arrival sequence data obtained from the ftlm data set, and tested the hypothesis that mean total ttavel time for all vehicles on the ftlm data was equal to the mean total ttavel time for all vehicles in the macroscopic simulation run. The hypothesis could not be disproved at the five percent significance level; therefore, the macroscopic simulation model was considered vali­dated.

lmplementiJtion. To implement the control strategies developed with the aid of the simulation models, SOC designed and built a microprocessor -controlled traffic­responsive controller. The following excerpt is from Ref 7, which describes the field test and evaluation of this signal controller:

"The research installation utilized 49 inductive loop detectors, a Varian 620-I minicomputer with 16K core storage (8K was needed for data evaluation purposes), hard­wire communication, and [two) off-the-shelf, pretimed, electromechanical intersection controllers modified for real-time phase length adjustment and skipping. Cycle lengths, splits, and offsets were computed at prescribed time intervals utilizing the volume inputs detected by the loop detectors. In this way the control system adapted to continuously changing demands and was not restricted to three signal timing plans ... The real-time software program was coded in Varian 620-I assembly language with about 3,500 instructions ... At a demand of 350 vehicle mi/hr the ttavel time for the pretimed method of control is 40 vehicle hr/hr compared to 32.5 for the real-time control meLitod. This difference represents an approximate 20 percent reduction in ttavel time. Part of this research project was an evaluation of the performance of the real-time system when fewer detectors were used. A minimum detector

7

configuration was evaluated as a possible alternative to the full49-detector configuration. The minimum IS-detector ~onfiguration provided the same level of system Improvements; for most applications about 20 detectors should be sufficient for real time control of a diamond interchange complex."

CURRENT PRACTICE IN DIAMOND INTERCHANGE PHASING

Diamond interchanges exist in a great variety of geo­metric configumtions, but by far the most common is the con.ventional, or "full" diamond. This interchange type is typified by entrances and exits from both sides of the freeway and one-way frontage road or mmp approaches. Most of the urban signalized diamond interchanges in Texas are of this type.

When signalizing the full diamond, each intersection is usually controlled by a three-phase ttaffic signal, with phases assigned to the arterial street through movements, the off-mmp or frontage road through movement. and the pro­tected left-tum movement from the inside of the inter­c.~ge. With. three phases at each intersection, any signal llmmg plan will generate at any given time only one of nine possible combinations of signal phasings at both intersec­tions.

Assuming that a given phase will be serviced only once per cycle at each side of the diamond, sequencing the nine possible combinations can result in only four basic phasing patterns at the diamond. These sequences are:

• . Lag-~g: Left turns from the interior lanes lag the opposmg arterial phase at both intersections,

Lead-Lead: Left turns lead at both intersections, • Lead-Lag: Left turns lead at the left intersection

lag at the right, and ' • Lag-Lead: The mirror image of the Lead-Lag

phasing pattern.

Terminology

In the State of Texas, a special terminology has origi­nated and come into popttlar use to identify diamond phasing patterns. These terms are denoted by the term "Figure XX" where "XX" is the number 3, 4, 6, or 7. The term "Figure3" refers to all lag-lag phasing patterns, "Figure 4" refers to all lead-lead phasing patterns (of which the so­called 4-phase overlap pattern is a subset), "Figure 6" refers to ~d-lag phasing patterns, and "Figure 7" refers to lag -lead phasmg patterns. (To avoid confusion in this report between ~se of ~e word "Figure" to refer to both phasing plans and Illusttations, the word will always be enclosed in double quotes when it is used to refer to a phasing plan.) . The frrs~ two terms originated because the most popular Implementation of the "Figure 3" plan is the so-called "Three-phase" pattern with simultaneous left turns, and "Figure 4" is usually implemented as the "Four-phase with overlaps" phasing plan. The names "Figure 6" and "Figure

8

7" are used arbitrarily for the lead-lag and lag-lead phasing patterns, and do not refer to 6-phase or 7-phase paUemS.

The remainder of this report will refer to other aspects of the diamond geometry as illustrated in Fig 2-1. The terms used include:

• The diamond interchange itself, which consists of two intersections.

• The diamond usually consists of the intersections of an arterial and a pair of ramps or frontage roads. Since most urban freeways in Texas are equipped with one-way frontage roads, the term frontage road will be used exclu­sively in this report The operational characteristics of ramp approaches are the same.

• With respect to the direction of traffic flow, those movements proceeding through both intersections of the diamond interchange traverse the upstream intersection fii'St, then the downstream intersection.

• Interior lanes and exterior legs: Traffic move­ments approaching the upstream intersection are said to be traveling on the exJerior legs to the diamond. The interior lanes are those between the two intersections and are trav­ersed by traffic streams approaching their respective down­stream intersections.

In some of the discussions, references are made to the cardinal directions of the compass to indicate the direction of a traffic movement in a diagram. In all cases, these direc­tions follow a map orientation, with the up direction as "north", right as "east", down as "south", and left as "west".

uad-uad or "Figure 4" Pattern This phasing pattern has become the preferred phasing

plan for most diamond interchanges because, when proper splits and offsets are selected, it allows all traffic movements to proceed through the interior lanes of the interchange without additional stops. The ''Figure 4" pattern achieves progression within a wide range of traffic volumes, from light to heavy, but sometimes is not the best phasing plan in cases of extremely unbalanced flow (where flows are much higher on one side of the diamond interchange than the other), widely spaced intersections, very light arterial left turns, or heavy U-turns from one frontage road to another. In those cases the "Figure 3" pattern may be superior to ''Figure 4".

The most common manifestation of the "Figure 4" pattern is the "four-phase overlap pattern". This pattern provides progression through the diamond for all move­ments except frontage road U -turns. This pattern is illus­trated in Fig 2-2. The main characteristic of the four-phase overlap pattern is the presence of two so-called "overlap" phases. These phases, during which two opposing external traffic streams are moving toward each other, must be of a ftxed length, usually equal to a second or two less than the travel time between the intersections.

The "Figure4" pattern usually offers superior capacity for a given cycle length to all non-symmetric lagging left patterns for cases with intersections with more than 50 feet spacing, which includes almost all diamonds. The

superiority arises because, when implemented as the four­phaseoverlapplan, "Figure4"hasalonger"effective"cycle length than its physical cycle length. This is because, during the overlap phases ("2 + 6" and "1+7" in Fig 2-2), two opposing external traffic streams are in movement simul1aneously. This reduces the cycle length necessary to accommodate the vehicles in the external traffic streams (or increases the capacity fora given cycle length) by an amount equal to the sum of the length of the two overlap phases; for this amount of time, there are two opposing external traffic streams moving between the intersections. To avoid making vehicles stop on the interior approach, the overlap phases are of a fiXed length equal to or less than the travel time between the two intersections.

It has been argued that, because of the increased number of phases, the four-phase overlap pattern has greater lost time, and thus requires longer cycle lengths for the same degree of saturation, compared to the symmetrical three­phase pattern; and thus, for light traffic volumes, the three­phase pattern is generally better. This is not actually true. Since, during the course of a single cycle, each external traffic movement must start up and stop exactly once, all diamond interchange phasing patterns have the same amount oflost time. Although it has not been experimentally proven, the "Figure 4" pattern may actually have less lost

time than other patterns that do not provide progression through the diamond because queue startup delays are usu­ally reduced or eliminated for the traffic stream being progressed through the downstream intersection [Ref 8]. The real reason why the three-phase pattern may have shorter cycle lengths than the four-phase overlap pattern in some cases is not because of reduced lost time, but because the three-phase pattern is not constrained by the presence of two potentially lengthy fiXed-length overlap phases. In light traffic conditions, with wide intersection separation, the cycle length of the symmetrical three-phase pattern will be shorter. This disadvantage of potentially longer cycle length must be traded off against the delays imposed to left turning traffic if the symmetrical three-phase plan is used.

The above comparisons are between the four-phase overlap pattern and the symmetrical three-phase pattern. Recall that the four-phase overlap is a special case of the "Figure 4" pattern, with fiXed length overlap phases and approximately a 50 percent offset. Likewise, the symmetri­cal three-phase pattern is a special case of the "Figure 3" pattern, which is a lag-lag pattern with about 0 percent offsets. Performance differences between the "Figure 3" and "Figure4" plan begin to blur in the case of unusual traffic patterns which demand the use of offsets not near 50 percent or 0 percent. In these cases, only construction of a time­space diagram will indicate which phasing plan offers better operation.

Another aspect favoring "Figure 4" phasing is that, for diamond interchanges with short intersection spacing, the interior storage requirements of "Figure 3" patterns will probably be exceeded for anything other than light flows.

Lag-Lag or "Figure 3" Phasing Pattern

This phasing pattern (Fig 2-3) is best used in cases when arterial left turning traffic and frontage road left turning traffic is light This pattern is also good for locations with heavy arterial through traffic, as long as left turns do not exceed the queueing capacity of the interior storage bays. Frontage road and through left tum storage is limited to queues equal in length to the spacing between the intersec­tions. If the symmetrical phasing plan is used, care must be used when allocating the amount of time for the frontage road phase; if the length of the phase exceeds the traveltime between the intersections, an unexpected stoppage of ve­hicles on the interior through approaches may occur, result­ing in increased potential for accidents.

The "Figure 3" pattern should not be used at intersec­tions without interior left tum storage bays.

Lead-Lag or {(Figure 6" Phasing

This phasing pattern favors unbalanced traffic flow on the leading left tum or the .. lagging" frontage road side. In Fig 2-4, eastbound traffic turning left onto the northbound frontage road will have to first stop or yield to oncoming traffic (in Block 1 +6 of the Figure). Westbound leading left tum traffic can move through the interchange to the

southbound frontage road without having to stop at the interior approach. Similar advantages are given to northbound frontage road traffic; southbound frontage road traffic is cut off at the end of Block 2+ 7.

Lag-uad or "Figu,., 1" Phasing

This phasing pattern is the same as "Figure 6" but has been rotated 180 degrees (see Fig 2-5.) As in "Figure 6 .. operation, timing advantages are afforded to the leading interior left tum and the lagging frontage road movement.

Act1111ted Operation: Conditional Phase Sldpplllg

All of the phasing patterns shown above could be implemented in a pretimed or an actuated controller. The primary differences between pretimed and actuated opera­tion are that during light traffic, phases can be skipped under actuated control.

The phasing patterns followed by actuated diamond controllers during light traffic periods when phases are skipped are actually simpler than might be followed by a conventional controller because the patterns are more restrictive in tenns of which phases can be followed by other phases. At a conventional four-leg intersection, any green signal indication can be followed by any other green signal indication (separated, of course, by a proper clearance

interval.) At the signalized diamond interchange, certain sequences must be followed in order to avoid trapping vehicles on the interior lanes.

Choosing the Best Timing and Phasing

Choosing the best phasing and timing plan for a dia­mond is difficult because of the large number of factors affecting the decision:

• the large number of combinations of possible phasing sequences,

• traffic volumes and saturation flow rates at the intersection,

• minimum green times, and • storage capacity of internal approaches. One scheme for timing a diamond interchange traffic

signal was given by Munjal [Ref 9]. This report, part of the California Diamond Project, describes a methodology based on frrst selecting a basic phasing plan, then selecting cycle length, splits, and offsets, in that order. Munjal was also concerned with progression through arterial street intersec­tions adjacent to the diamond, so the procedure includes the selection of a common cycle length, splits, and offsets for adjacent arterial signals.

Generally, once a phasing pattern is chosen, the timing of the external movements follows the same rules as with a

conventional four-leg intersection: the green time for each external movement of the diamond interchange is propor­tionalto the ratio of that movement's volume-to-saturation­ratio (y-value) to the sum of the volume-to-saturation-ratios of all the external movements.

At this point the timing of the internal approaches must be determined. A time-space diagram can be consttucted for the phasing plan, cycle length. and external movement timings under consideration to find the appropriate offset and timings for each internal phase. Fortunately, when choosing a phasing plan without the aid of optimization tools such as PASSER lli or a similar computer program, it is almost always a safe decision to use the "Figure 4" phasing plan. Other patterns can be used. but they are hardly ever optimal unless the intersection has unusual volume charac­teristics and/or wide spacing. or unless a different plan must be chosen to provide arterial progression.

Phase Numbering Schemes: Assignment of Traffw Phases to Controller Phases

controlling agency, designer, etc. It must be emphasized that phase and detector numbering can be completely arbitrary; the schemes presented here are simply two of the most common in use.

The origin of the California Type 170 actuated control­ler design is apparent in its configuration as a pair of dual ring, four-phase controllers (Fig 2-6). The eight phases operate together in "leading left" mode as a pair of dual-ring four-phase controllers. Each separate controller is assigned phases for one intersection of the diamond interchange. The two controllers operate on a common cycle length, and the desired diamond interchange phasing and timing plan is implemented by application of the proper splits and offset between the two controllers. The 170 controller phases are assigned to traffic movements as shown in Fig 2-7.

Normally, the two four-phase controllers are operated in lagging left turn mode with zero offset. in which "Figure 3" phasing is obtained, or in leading left turn mode with about a 50 percent offset. in which "Figure 4" phasing results. For other patterns, phase force offs and skips generated by the special diamond interchange control soft­ware are used to invoke the proper phase sequence at each intersection.

The concept of the 170 phasing arrangement is easy to apply; by varying phase lengths, offsets, and lead-lag left turn modes, any arrangement of diamond phases can be developed. The original170controllerconceptprovided the following features:

• Fully actuated control in isolated operation. • A traffic responsive control program which calls

into effect any of nine preprogrammed patterns based on data obtained from detectors located at the interchange.

• Interconnection with adjacent controllers to pro-vide arterial street progression.

Detector Placement

The schematic in Fig 2-8. based on the "Texas Dia­mond" phase numbering scheme, is characteristic of the fully actuated diamond. This is the typical detector number­ing scheme as preferred by the cities of Dallas and Fort Worth. Detectors are associated with controller phases by using the same number as the associated controller phase.

Where more than one detector is connected to a phase, the detectors are assigned a following letter in addition.

The variables under consideration in the optimization of a detector scheme are numerous, and their interaction is complex. Some of the areas being investigated by current research include the following:

• Location of the loop, whether at the stop line or set back.

Fig 2-7. Type "170" diamond controller phase arrangement

a call is received for Phase 2 or Phase 7, the other phase is called also. In the same manner, if Phase 1 and 6 are not being serviced and a call is received for Phase 1 or Phase 6, the other phase is called also. This option is selected by means of an external logic input, usually conttolled by a time clock.

The following rules apply to detector operation during "Figure 4" operation:

• All detectors function in the normal manner, call-ing their respective phases when the phase is not active, and extending them when the phase is active.

• The extension of the frontage road/ramp move-ments, in which Phases 3 and 7, or2 and 5 are green, may be controlled by detectors on the interior approaches as well as on the frontage road/ramps. To illustrate, either detector 013 or 03, or both, in addition to the detectors on the approach to Phase 7, may be used to extend Phase 3+ 7 when that movement is active. The decision is left to the designer.

• Detectors D2A and 07 A: These alternate detectors are used to extend Phase 2 and Phase 7 respectively. Detec­tors D2 and D7 are used to call Phase 2 and Phase 7 when the phases are not active.

Current Research in Detector Placement

Some research is currently being conducted in the area of detector placement. Messer et al [Ref 11] conducted a factorial experiment investigating the relative performance of setback and stop-line detectors in both "Figure 3" and "Figure 4" opt'nltion at four diamond interchanges in Fon Wonh, Texas. Because of the large expense of collecting real-world traffic data, the sample size was small, but the experiment indicated that setback detection probably re­duced queue lengths and delays at the intersections under study. The TEXAS Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Inter­changes) will penn it investigators to easily replicate experi­ments such as this, reducing variances inherent in real-world traffic and allowing the true effects of detector designs to be evaluated.

CHAPTER 3. VALIDATION OF TEXAS MODEL, VERSION 3.0

DEFINITION OF VALIDATION This part of the report describes the procedure that has

been used for validating the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges). Validation is the process of prov­ing that a model operates in the same way as the real-world system it is trying to represent, or "building an acceptable level of confidence that an inference about a simulated process is a correct or valid inference for the process" itself [Ref 12]. No model can represent the real world with complete accuracy. In fact, validation will almost never result in the absolute proof of truth or correctness of a model because the equivalence of two systems, in this case ~ simulation model and a real-world diamond interchange, cannot be demonstrated just by comparing inputs and out­puts of the two systems. The inputs and outputs may be the same, but the internal mechanisms may be completely different Inordertoprovetheirequivalence,alltheintemal numeric states of the two systems must be compared. Since the number of internal states of a complex system such as a diamond interchange is practically infmite, it would be impossible to exhaustively check all the possible states.

Therefore, attention must be given only to certain measurable responses of a model to defined input condi­tions. Validation, then, consists of comparing these selected responses to the same responses that occur in a real-world system as a result of the same inputs.

A synonym for response is measure of effectiveness. So, validation makes sure that selected measures of effec­tiveness (MOEs) of the model are approximately the same as corresponding ones in the real world. The question of which MOEs are selected is largely a question of judgment: what features are prominent in the model? Hthe model has already been constructed, this is an easy task. If not, it is one of the fundamental problems in the design of a simulation model. Since the 1EXAS Model, Version 3.0 (Diamond Inter­changes) is a descendant of the original1EXAS Model of Intersection Traffic [Ref 1], the measures of effectiveness of interest are already well-defined by the architecture and features of the model.

DESIGNING THE VALIDATION EXPERIMENT

Like the original TEXAS Model program, the purpose of the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 program is to allow the evaluation of the effects of different geometric configura­tions and traffic-conttol strategies on driver-vehicle units at an intersection [Ref 1]. The use of the program follows the

"design -> simulate -> evaluate -> redesign"

feedback loop familiar to the engineer. In other words, the TEXAS Model is not an optimization tool; it is a tool for evaluating an intersection design. At the evaluation stage,

13

some MOEs of interest to the interchange designer include: • delay to vehicles, • queue lengths, • probability of clearing a queue in one signal cycle,

and • vehicle travel times. All the above measurements, which are available either

directly from the TEXAS Model printout or from post­processor analysis of output data flies, serve as indicators of the effects of different design alternatives.

The purpose of the validation procedure, therefore, is to compare real-world MOEs with simulated MOEs to such a degree that a user can be reasonably confident that the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 actually approximates real­world conditions. This is done by comparing MOEs ob­tained from real-world film observations to the correspond­ing MOEs obtained from the simulation model.

ValitiiJtion of the Original TEXAS Model

Validation of the original TEXAS Model was made using a combination of several techniques. First, quali tali ve examinations were made of printouts of intermediate output ftles and the position, velocity. and acceleration histories of vehicles. No quantitative tests were performed at this stage; engineering judgment was applied, and a determination was made as to whether the output seemed reasonable.

Next, the same type of test was applied to the viewing of intersection operation on an animated-graphics display terminal. Again the criterion applied was whether the display of traffic flow appeared the same as would be expected at a comparable real-world intersection.

Finally, quantitative validation of the model was made by comparing observed queue-discharge headways at sig­nalized intersections with those collected from the model, and by comparing queue delay on approaches at five non­signalized intersections in Austin to those produced by the model [Ref l].

Field-Data Sample Siz.e

How much real-world data should be collected? The answer to this question depends on the definition of sample space for this experiment The sample space is the range of conditions over which the results of an experiment are expected to be valid. The ideal sample space for the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 validation procedure would consist of all urban diamond interchanges in Texas. To validate the model for this sample space, a list of all urban diamond inter­changes in the state would be created, and then a number of interchange locations would be selected randomly from the list. This ideal procedure was not possible for several reasons.

The most pressing constraint was due to the use of time­lapse photography for field-data collection. This required

Page 21: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

14

that the interchanges under study be located within 300 to 600 feet of a 10 to 20-story building or other structure able to serve as a platform for the camera equipment This signifi­cantly reduced the body of diamond interchanges available for study.

Next, various factors prevented building managers from allowing study personnel access to building rooftops. On inside floors, access was considered too disruptive for tenants, and was limited to unoccupied spaces. Therefore, filming was restricted to buildings with either very coopera­tive building managers, empty floor space facing a diamond interchange, or both.

No location in Austin was found that was accessible for study. Eventually two locations were found in San Antonio that satisfied these criteria. These locations were the dia­mond interchanges at the intersections of Interstate High­way (IH) 410 at Nacogdoches Road, and IH-41 0 at McCull­ough Avenue. Shown in the location map in Fig 3-1, both locations are full diamonds in urbanized areas. Nacogdo­ches is a major arterial street serving northeast San Antonio, with moderate to heavy traffic on all movements. McCull­ough is a minor arterial street Since a major retail shopping center is located on the southwest comer of the McCullough interchange, turning movements servicing this retail area were heavy. Other pertinent information includes:

Both intersections are signalized, with actuated traffic signal controller equipment Both intersections operate on the "Figure 4" phasing plan with approximately a 50 percent offset, resulting in the "4-phase" type of timing plan; how­ever, only the Nacogdoches interchange operates with the "overlap" phases generally characteristic of this plan.

The IH-410/Nacogdoches site is equipped with free U­tum lanes; IH-410/McCullough is not.

Figures 3-2 and 3-3 are schematic interpretations of the geometric conditions found at the two intersections. Supple­mentary data for these figures are included in Tables 3-1 and 3-2.

THE VALIDATION PROCEDURE

Validation of TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 Submodels

The structured design of the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 suggests conceptually the testing of its individual sub­models. In addition, the validity of the original TEXAS Model can be extended to Version 3.0 since many of the submodels of the original TEXAS Model are used in the diamond-interchange version without modification.

The TEXAS Model, Version 3.0, like the TEXAS Model, includes three principal submodels: the Geometry processor (GEOPRO), the Driver-Vehicle Processor (DVPRO), and the Simulation Processor (SIMPRO). GEOPRO and DVPRO generate inputs files for the third submodel, SIMPRO. Each of the submodels can be tested separately by gleaning the proper measurements from corre­sponding real-world data sets.

Geometry Processor Validation

Validation of the geometry processor is a simple task. Since the geometry processor is capable of producing plot­ted output, as with the original TEXAS Model, plans of the interchange under study can be compared directly with the plotted output from GEOPRO.

Login Distributions

Login headways generated by the driver-vehicle proc­essor are probably not appropriate for use in the validation tests. Instead, the actual login times of the real-world vehicles should be used. This serves as a variance reduction technique and will reduce or eliminate the effects of differ­ences between the real-world and generated login distribu­tions.

Another reason why actual login times should be used is due to the relatively short length of the approach lanes in the validation data sets. With long approach lanes, the TEXAS Model is relatively insensitive to the login distribu­tion of vehicles [Ref 13]. Car-following and traffic-control effects dominate the effects of login distribution at the intersection, given that approach lanes are more than about 400 to 500 feet long. However, approach lanes in the field data sets collected for validation of the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 were rather short (less than 300 feet) in some cases. Therefore, it was desirable to recreate as closely as possible the login headways observed in the field. Files of observed headways were developed.

SIMPRO VaUdily Extended to TEXAS Model, Version 3.0

The simulation processor, SIMPRO, includes the car­following, vehicle-acceleration and deceleration, lane­choice, and lane-change submodels. These submodels are closely interconnected within the operations of the simula­tion processor and cannot be tested independently .

However, these submodels, which have to do with the interaction among vehicles and the interaction of the driver and vehicle, are not expected to differ in the case of a diamond interchange from that at a regular intersection. With the previous validity of the TEXAS Model established, it is reasonable to assume that these submodels will remain valid in the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0. Review of the animated-graphics screen display showing driver-vehicle units traversing various diamond-interchange configura­tions confirmed the orderly and reasonable behavior of traffic and traffic-control devices simulated by SIMPRO.

Traffic Signal Controller Submodel Validation

Perhaps the most significant difference between the TEXAS Model and the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 is in the traffic signal controller submodel. A traffic signal controller responds dynamically to a limited number of discrete inputs - traffic detectors - and thus can be tested to see if its response is the same as that of a real-world controller.

simulated controller can be made to reproduce real-world re­sponses exactly in response to specific detector inputs.

To validate the performance of the traffic signal control­ler module developed for the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0, a signal-controller tester software program was written. This tester runs on an IBM (or compatible) microcomputer. It is desirable, but not mandatory, that the computer have a color display monitor.

The tester displays both preset and dynamic data. The preset data that are displayed include controller settings for each phase, the settings for the 12 special timers, the state (ON or OFF) of the 10 options, and the numbers of the phases in each of the two controller rings. Displayed dynamic data includes the state of each of the active special timers, the currently-active phase in each ring, the indication (green, yellow-change, red-clearance) for each active phase, and time-into and the time-remaining-before-gapout for each active phase. The tester also shows which phases have calls, are in a hold condition, are in a select condition, or have been chosen to be the next active phase. The list of detectors that is currently connected for each phase is also shown on the display.

The tester works with normal SlMPRO input data. Vehicle actuations (calls) are entered manually from the computer keyboard. During testing, the program pauses at the start of each simulation time-step (DT), waits for entry of traffic actuations, processes these actuations, and dis­plays the new signal controller data which are generated in response to the actuations.

In validating the Version 3.0 traffic signal controller submodel, many different scenarios were tried for each of the phasing-plan "Figures" that are used for diamond inter­changes. Modifications to the software were made as neces­sary to cause the simulated controller to respond correctly to the input information. An almost infmite number of condi­tions and combinations of conditions can exist for the diamond interchange signal controller. A wide range was tried, and the latest version of the traffic signal controller was found to respond correctly to all conditions that were tried.

VALIDATION DATA

Field Data Collection

Super 8 millimeter motion picture film was chosen as the medium for field data collection. After locations were selected based on accessibility and proximity to a diamond interchange, two cameras were set up, one covering each intersection of the diamond interchange and that intersection's exterior approaches. The fields of view of the cameras overlapped slightly, but not enough to follow all vehicles completely through both intersections of the dia­mond. At the Nacogdoches Road interchange, the freeway passed over Nacogdoches Road, so the interior lanes were not visible. At the McCullough A venue interchange, the

freeway is depressed below the street level, so interior approaches were visible.

Cameras were set for single-frame exposure mode. An external intervalometer was connected to both cameras through a Y -connector, triggering both cameras simultane­ously at a preset time interval. A special device was used to hold a stopwatch at the proper orientation in the foreground of the field of view of each camera. The stopwatches were synchronized to display the same time; in this manner the exact exposure time of each frame of film in each camera could be ascertained. The intervalometer was started, and filming commenced at the rate of approximately two frames per second. At 3600 frames per roll of Super 8 film, 30 minutes of data could be collected on each roll.

The filming rate of one-half second per frame was selected because the intervalometer was only capable of operating at two speeds; the other available speed of two seconds per frame was too "coarse" for the purposes of this validation.

Data Reduction: Vehicle Counts

The first step in reducing the film data was to obtain vehicle counts for the 30-minute period to be recreated in the simulations. Vehicles on each approach lane of each inter­section were counted from the film individually. In addition, counts for each available origin-destination route through the interchange were made.

The two-camera filming technique meant that the paths of most vehicles could not be traced all the way through the interchange in a single camera's field of view. However, accurate counts for each origin-destination route could be obtained since a time display was visible in each of the two fields of view, and since distinct platoons of traffic were formed by the discharge of each traffic signal phase at each intersection.

Data Reduction: Measurement of Delays on Approaches

Delay was determined from the film data sets by sam­pling queue lengths at a regular interval. This interval varied between data sets, but was between six and eight seconds. Queue lengths were sampled for most lanes on every ap­proach; however, in some cases approach lanes were pooled together due to poor visibility or low traffic volumes. The average delay was then calculated by multiplying the sum of all the queue length measurements by the time interval between measurements for that data set.

The TEXAS Model recognizes four different types of delay: 1) queue delay, 2) stopped delay, 3) "delay below N miles per hour" (the value ofN is set by the user but defaults to 10.0 mph), and4) total delay. Queue delay is defined as the time a driver-vehicle unit spends in a queue waiting to enter the intersection. A driver-vehicle unit is considered in a queue when it is on an inbound lane (includes internal lanes in Version 3.0), is traveling less than 3.0 ft/sec, and is less

Page 28: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

than some specified distance (user-specified. defaulting to 30 feet) from the vehicle ahead. Once a driver-vehicle unit begins accumulating queue delay, it accumulates queue delay until it enters the intersection. Queue delay, therefore, includes time spent "moving up" in the queue.

Data collected from the film was in the form of queue lengths,andthedefmitionofaqueueasobservedonthefllm was made as close as possible to that specified by the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0's definition of queue delay. Precise distance measurement from the film was not pos­sible (or necessary). For the purposes of determining whether an observed vehicle was in a queue, a rough esti­mate of 1{}. car length (about 10 feet) from the rear of the vehicle ahead was used as the criteria for approximating the TEXAS Model's condition of traveling less than 3.0 ff/sec to join a queue. Because of this interpretation of the filmed field data, it is Version 3 .0' s queue delay output statistic that should be compared to the delays measured from the film data sets.

Stopped delay is similar to queue delay, but does not include move-up time in the queue. Stopped delay is defined as delay incurred by a driver-vehicle unit any time the vehicle is in a queue and traveling less than 3.0 ff/sec. Usually queue delay and stopped delay will be nearly equal at a signalized intersection. It is very difficult to determine on a frame-by-frame basis whether a vehicle is moving up in the queue or not; therefore, this delay statistic was not measured from the film data sets.

The defmition of "delay below N miles per hour" (also knownas"specialdelaystatistic")isapparentfromitsname. This type of delay may occur anywhere in the intersection. This statistic is also very difficult to measure from film because it is very hard to measure vehicle speeds on a frame­by-frame basis.

Total delay is defined in the TEXAS Model as the difference between the actual ttavel time of a vehicle through the intersection and the ttavel time through the intersection had the vehicle been able to maintain its desired speedatalltimes. Itispossibletocomputethisquantityfrom the display/emissions output file of the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0, which contains the ttavel-time history of each vehicle processed through the system.

DaltJ Reduction: Exact Login Times

Because of limitations in the field of view, inbound approach lanes of the validation model runs are shorter than the desired length of 600 feet or more. This has an effect on vehicle login headways such that variance between real­world and model login head ways is not damped out by car following behavior, as would happen with longer approach lanes. Thus vehicles are logged in at the exact times they pass an inbound login reference point on the film.

Suitable login reference points were selected on each approach to the diamond interchanges, and the passage time of each vehicle past these points was measured. Vehicles

21

were classified on login as either passenger cars or heavy vehicles, corresponding to TEXAS .Model vehicle types three and twelve (Medium Passenger Car and Loaded Diesel Semi-Trailer.)

DaltJ Reduction: Assignment of Destination Legs

Direct observation of the route of each individual ve­hicle through the interchange on the film from system login to logout was prohibitive. Inbound vehicle counts were obtained from the intersection-entry headway data, and the number of vehicles in each vehicle class was recorded by lane at this location. However, since the inbound vehicle counts were observed at the intersection and not at the inbound system login point, these counts did not identify the lane on which vehicles were logged into the system. Input to the TEXAS Model, Version 3.0 requires the user to specify the percent of vehicles with a destination on each leg of the interchange at the time of login to the system. It was impossible to determine such information from the filmed data, as the ftrst indication of the driver's destination on the film came when the vehicle chose a path through the first intersection; an additional choice was made at the second intersection if both intersections were used. Counts of enter­ing vehicles from each lane at the first intersection as well as counts for each route (inbound-outbound lane pair) through the diamond were obtained from the fllm. Therefore, destinations for individual vehicles could feasibly be as­signed by randomly associating destination legs to incoming vehicles in a manner to minimize lane changes on the inbound lanes approaching the ftrst intersection.

The solution to the problem of linking the number of vehicles entering the system on a particular leg with the number of vehicles with a final destination on a particular leg of the interchange was to formulate the assignment of vehicles entering the system to a destination leg as a trans­portation linear program. The number of vehicles entering the intersection on each inbound lane of each leg was known, as was also the count of vehicles using each available route through the interchange to a fmal destination. The objective was to minimize the "cost" of lane changing, whereby each lane-change across one lane was assigned a cost of one, each change over two lanes was assigned a cost of two, and so on. The minimization was subject to the constraints that the counts on each inbound lane and the counts on each destina­tion leg retain their correct values as obtained from the film data. A different, small linear program was created for the inbound lanes on each leg; the input consisted of lane counts, and the outputs consisted of destination-leg counts.

These transportation linear programs were easily solved manually by using the transportation simplex method described in most operation research textbooks. Where discrepancies existed between inbound and destination counts, the destination count was adjusted rather than the inbound count, since the inbound count was considered more accurate, and also because preservation of the inbound

Page 29: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

22

count would affect the inbound headway distribution. In some cases the solution to the transportation linear program was not unique. Lack of uniqueness will not affect the simulation model operation since the same number of lane changes will occur in each solution.

The result of the transportation linear program solution was a matrix of vehicle counts with a row for each inbound lane and a column for each destination leg. These counts were then used to randomly assign destination legs to ve­hicles in the files of inbound-lane login times obtained from the film data in the same proportion as obtained in the linear program solution.

Data Reduction: Signal Change Times

Although the signal heads could not be observed di­rectlyonthefllm(theyweretoofaraway),movementofthe first few vehicles in queues at the signal approaches was visible. Since the traffic signals at both locations under study were actuated, no traffic signal phase began without a vehicle being in place from which to detect movement. The time recorded for the beginning of the phase was the time at which the fmt vehicle in the queue was observed to move.

This procedure does not take into account vehicle startup time. Because this startup time is not observable on the fllm, it cannot be measured. If it is assumed that vehicle startup time is constant for all the queues photographed, then it can be ignored, due to the cyclical nature of traffic signal timing.

Preparation of Validation Input Data FUes

The objective of this task was to prepare files in the appropriate input fonnats for the 1EXAS Model, Version 3.0. Data files were prepared corresponding to each of the 30-minute filmed segments of real-worlddata. and consisted of a geometric data file and a number of driver-vehicle input flies. The driver-vehicle input flies were developed in a format compatible with input to the simulation processor, i.e., in the same format as driver-vehicle processor, DVPRO, output files. Replicate flies were prepared with a special data-processing program.

Multiple driver-vehicle unit flies were provided to eliminate the need for resolving individual vehicle destina­tions from each data seL Determining the desired destina­tion leg for each vehicle in the fllm data flies would be prohibitively time-consuming. Instead, the destination leg for each vehicle is chosen in a random order and assigned to the individual driver-vehicle files. Randomization is made with respect to the 30-minute lane and route counts, so those counts remain the same from file to file; only the order of vehicles is changed. The special data-processing program also randomizes driver types according to the default para­meters as used in the 1EXAS Model, Version 3.0.

In addition, the program randomizes desired driver­vehicle speeds by sampling from a normal distribution with

mean equal to the speed limit, and a standard deviation of three to five mph. A discrete approximation to the normal distribution was used to prevent selection of a speed more than three standard deviations (15 mph) above or below the mean speed. The technique is the additive convolution technique for selecting normally-distributed random vari­ates in the development of the original 1EXAS Model. Vehicle speeds were not sampled in the field

Startup and Equillbration Using Estimated Parameters

Equilibration for the Version 3.0 model takes slightly longer than for the original1EXAS Model because it takes more time for vehicles to travel completely through the inter­change. A shifted negative exponential frequency distribu­tion was used to generate driver-vehicle unit headways during the startup period for some simulation runs used for validation, and a duplicate segment from the field data files prepended to the file was used for other runs. Other parame­ters for the startup period were those determined from the fllmeddata.

Comparison of Simulation Results With Field Data

The 1EXAS Model, Version 3.0 was configured to simulate the geometry and traffic-signal control at the IH-410 at McCullough A venue diamond interchange. Two traffic data files prepared from the field data observed on two different days were used as input to the model. Each file included thirty minutes of real-time data. One day, the total volume of traffic was approximately three times as much as on the other day.

The measures of effectiveness (MOEs) used for com­parison of simulation results with field data were: 1) total number of vehicles processed, 2) queue delay, 3) overall average queue delay. and 4) queue length. None of the simulation results was more than 10 percent different from the field data gleaned from the film. Some of the simulation runs yielded overall average queue delays that were virtually the same as those observed in the field. The model handled both light and heavy traffic very satisfactorily.

Observing the animated-graphics display of traffic moving through the diamond interchange in response to the actuated signal controller indications confirmed the rea­sonableness of the simulation and the resulting summary statistics that were used as MOEs. By this technique the behavior of each individual driver-vehicle unit and the associated traffic signal indications at each increment of time could be evaluated for accuracy. Queue buildup and dissipation followed normal patterns and thus indicated that no unusual events adversely affected the summary statistics. Performance of the diamond-interchange simulation model was judged to be quite adequate for application as a traffic engineering tool.

APPENDIX A THE TEXAS MODEL VERSION 3.0 [Diamond Interchanges]

Guide to Data Entry

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic [Refs 1-3] is a powerful computer simulation tool which

allows the user to evaluate in detail the complex interaction among individually-characterized driver-vehicle

units as they operate in a defined intersection environment under a specified type of traffic control. Prior

to Version 3.0 the model could be used for simulating only single at-grade intersections. Significant

modifications implemented through Version 3.0 extend the package to include diamond interchanges.

The new version includes both the single and diamond interchange simulation capabilities inside a user­

friendly operating environment which will be very familiar to current TEXAS Model users. This guide

describes procedures for using the new Version 3.0 of the TEXAS Model.

STRUCTURE OF THE TEXAS MODEL FOR INTERSECTION TRAFFIC VERSION 3.0

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic includes four data processors: GEOPRO (Geometry),

DVPRO (Driver-Vehicle}, SIMPRO (Simulation}, and EM PRO (Emissions} for describing, respectively, the

geometric configurations, the stochastically arriving traffic, the behavior of traffic in response to the

applicable traffic controls, and the emissions generated by the traffic.

GEOPRO develops a geometric definition of the intersection or interchange in response to user

specifications. DVPRO utilizes assigned characteristics for each class of driver and vehicle and generates

attributes for each individual driver-vehicle unit; thus, each unit is characterized by inputs concerning

driver class, vehicle class, desired speed, desired outbound intersection leg, and lateral inbound lane

position. SIMPRO simulates the traffic behavior of each driver-vehicle unit according to the momentary

surrounding conditions including traffic control device indications, surrounding traffic, and geometric

features which might be applicable. Delay statistics are collected and include the average of total delay

and the average of stop delay incurred by each vehicle processed. Each delay is summarized by tum and

straight movements and by the total of the permitted directional movements on each inbound approach.

Total delay is the difference between travel time for a vehicle through the system and the time it would

have taken the vehicle at its desired speed. Stop delay is the time spent by a vehicle which has a velocity

less than 3 feet/second. Delay statistics show the overall influence of the intersection environment on

traffic passing through the intersection. Comparison of the delays experienced by traffic making various

directional movements indicates the interaction among traffic flows on the intersecting streets. Queue

length statistics include average queue length and maximum queue length. Both are measured in units of

vehicles, not feet. EM PRO, the emissions processor, (actually a post-processor) Incorporates models to

predict the instantaneous vehicle emissions of Carbon Monoxide (C.O), Hydrocarbons (HC), Oxides of

Nitrogen (NOx), and fuel flow (FF) for both light-duty vehicles and heavy-duty vehicles.

Data Entry to the TEXAS Model Version 3.0

Data required for running the TEXAS Model are entered by the user through two computer data­

entry programs called GDVDATA (Geometry, Driver, Vehicle) and SIMDATA (Simulation). Data that are

needed for defining the geometric features of the intersection area in terms that are acceptable to the

geometry processor (GEOPRO) of the TEXAS Model is incorporated into GDVDATA. In addition to the

geometric data needed by the model, the user must enter data to characterize the drivers and vehicles

which make up the traffic stream passing through a simulated intersection. The data-entry program

GDVDATA includes user aids for entering the data needed by the driver-vehicle processor (DVPRO) of

the TEXAS Model.

For efficiency and for the convenience of the user, a permanent library, which contains 20 typical

intersection configurations including one diamond interchange, has been created and stored within

GDVDATA. Each of these configurations, along with a defined traffic pattern, is described in detail in

Appendix B of this guide. Instructions for using and modifying data files copied from the permanent library

are given through prompts on the screen and in the section of this report entitled USING THE DATA­

ENTRY PROGRAM GDVDATA. A user-group library is also provided to allow users to develop, store,

index, and retrieve conveniently their own data files for modification or for repeated use without

modification.

Data that are needed by the simulation processor, SIMPRO, are entered through the data-entry

program called SIMDATA. This program pairs the entered data required by SIMPRO with data previously

defined by using GDVDATA or with data contained in a permanent library file within GDVDATA. Use of

SIMDATA is described in the section of this guide entitled CONCEPTS AND USE OF THE DATA-ENTRY

PROGRAM SIMDATA and through prompts and instructions on the screen.

Animated Graphics Display ot TEXAS Model Output

Output from the TEXAS Model includes the instantaneous speed, location, and time relationship

for every simulated vehicle. These data are routinely written to a file for use by the emissions processor,

EMPRO, or for other applications. The TEXAS Model Version 3.0 provides a feature whereby this

information can be displayed graphically in real-time, or in stop action, on a screen driven by an IBM or

compatible micro-computer. Intersection geometry is extracted from the files created by GDVDATA and

displayed on the screen, first. Then, the position of each simulated vehicle is represented on the screen

by an outline of the vehicle, scaled to size and color coded according to performance capability, with

respect to time.

With this animated graphics display the user can study overall traffic performance of an intersection

or interchange or examine in great detail the behavior of an individual vehicle in the traffic stream. This is a

unique capability which permits the user to examine easily several alternative solutions to a problem by

simulation without the time and expense of cut-and-try experimentation in the field. A wide range of

conditions can be defined and evaluated visually on the screen as well as in the form of tabular listings that

give summary statistics about traffic and signal-control performance.

CONCEPTS AND TERMINOLOGY USED IN THE DATA·ENTRY PROGRAM GDVDATA

The TEXAS Model Version 3.0 utilizes two pre-processor packages to arrange the required data

concerning intersection geometric features and driver-vehicle traffic characteristics into a format that is

acceptable for use in the actual simulation process. The user must specify all geometric and traffic data

that are needed by the model to describe accurately and completely the particular

intersection/Interchange situation which will be simulated in a given run of the program. Once the

geometric and traffic features have been entered properly, they can be used repeatedly by the simulation

processor without change. These data are entered via a program called GDVDATA. This program utilizes

a series of screen prompts guiding the user in entering all required geometric and traffic data.

Geometry Data

Experience has shown that the first-time user as well as the frequent user of the TEXAS Model

must have a plan-view drawing or sketch of the intersection area that is to be simulated available for

immediate reference before attempting to enter the geometric data required by the model. Details shown

on the plan should permit determination of dimensions to within one foot and angles to within one

degree.

The concept of modular construction is used to configure a digital representation of the

intersection geometric features which are to be simulated. Terminology associated with geometry of

single intersections and diamond interchanges as used in this guide is shown in Figure A-1, and defined

in Table A-1 which follow. The arrangement of the various elements of intersection geometry and the

descriptive data required by the TEXAS Model is also discussed below.

Single Intersections

The LANE is the basic element that is used to form the geometry of an intersection. Each lane has

a finite width and length, is oriented in a particular way with respect to the intersection center, and carries

traffic either inbound toward the intersection or outbound away from the intersection. One or more

parallel lanes form a LEG. Inbound lanes lie to the right-hand side of the leg centerline and outbound

lanes to the left-hand side. lanes on each leg are numbered starting with the inbound lane nearest the

leg centerline as No. 1, the next adjacent inbound lane to the right-hand side as No. 2, etc. until all

inbound lanes on the leg are numbered. Then, the next sequential number is given to the outbound lane

nearest the leg centerline, and the numbering sequence is continued for each adjacent outbound lane

until all lanes on the leg are numbered. A new sequence of numbers starting with 1 is used to number the

7. Lane Terminal A real or imaginary straight line, perpendicular to the leg centerline, which designates the interface between a lane and the intersection. On each inbound lane, it locates the position where simulated vehicles will stop, if necessary, before entering the intersection. It is nominally located at the point of tangency of the curb return with the outside lane edge for all lanes on the same side of the leg centerline.

8. Offset of Lane Terminal The distance that the lane terminal is shifted along a lane from its nominal location. Positive values indicate movement toward the intersection center; negative values away.

9. Intersection Center A selected reference point in the intersection where two or more leg centerlines cross. The location of all leg centerlines is referred to this point by a user-defmed leg angle and a leg­centerline offset.

lanes on each succeeding leg. Legs are numbered beginning with No. 1 for the leg with the smallest leg

angle, with successive leg numbers Increasing In a clockwise direction.

The LEG CENTERLINE separates the inbound and outbound lanes directionally and provides a

means for orienting the legs with respect to the intersection center. If a MEDIAN separates the inbound

and outbound lanes, the leg centerline is coincident with the median centerline. The user specifies the

width of the median. All leg centerlines intersect at least one other leg centerline in the INTERSECTION.

A chosen point of crossing of two or more leg centerllnes Is called the INTERSECTION CENTER. Data

entry will be facilitated if this point is chosen as the common point of intersection of the largest number of

leg centerllnes, but the program allows any point in the intersection where at least two leg centerlines

cross to be called the intersection center. All leg centerlines are located with respect to the intersection

center by the user's specification of a leg angle and a leg-centerline offset.

The LEG ANGLE is measured in a clockwise direction from a 0-degree reference line, which must

pass through the intersection center, to each leg centerline. It may have any whole-degree value from 0

through 359 degrees. The LEG-CENTERLINE OFFSET is the perpendicular distance from a point on the

leg centerline to the intersection center. This distance must be determined by the user from the plan-view

drawings of the Intersection. Positive values of offset indicate a leg-centerline location to the right of the

intersection center, and negative values locate the leg centerline to the left when looking along the leg

centerline toward the intersection.

A CURB RETURN is used to join the edges of the outermost lanes on adjacent legs of the

intersection and to define the edge of the traveled way. The user specifies the radius of this circular arc

which is tangent to two intersecting lane edges. A LANE TERMINAL, which defines the Interfaces

between each lane and the Intersection, is nominally located by the program for all lanes on the same side

of the leg centerline at the point of tangency of the curb return with the outside lane edge. The lane

terminal may be shifted from this nominal location by the user's entering a value of OFFSET OF LANE

TERMINAL for each lane. A positive value for this offset shifts the lane terminal toward the intersection

center, and negative value moves it away from the intersection. On each inbound lane, the lane terminal

locates the position where simulated vehicles will stop, if necessary, before entering the intersection. In

special cases when two adjacent lanes are parallel, or nearly parallel i.e., within+ 20.05 degrees, the LANE

TERMINALS for all lanes on the same side of the leg centerline are not located by the program at the

nominal location described above. Rather, the program automatically locates them at a perpendicular

distance equal to the curp-retum radius from the lane terminals to the intersection center. This technique

of locating the lane terminals can be used for other cases by entering a negative value for the curb-return

radius. The program will utilize the absolute value of the negative curb-return radius to position the lane

terminals with respect to the intersection center.

The geometry processor in the TEXAS Model automatically generates a geometric path through

the intersection from the center of each inbound lane terminal to the center of each outbound lane

A-10

terminal which can be accessed legaHy by a vehicle passing through the Intersection. Each path Is made

up of segments of straight lines and circular arcs of maximum radius which will fit at the center of the lane

terminals being connected. The user must specify a TURNING MOVEMENT CODE which describes the

type of movement which will be made by a vehicle in the Intersection as it uses one of the available paths.

Prohibited movements from any lane may be simulated by omitting letters from the turning movement

code. Permitted movements include: U-tum, U; left-tum, L; straight, S; and right-tum, R. The computer

works with exact angles and dimensions; therefore, zones must be specHied by a range of angles within

which the destination of each simulated turning movement can fall. Provisions are made through the leg

geometry data prompts for entering angles that define the U-TURN ZONE and the STRAIGHT ZONE.

These angles are measured from the centerline of the leg on which the movement originates to the

limiting angle within which the centerline of the leg where the movement has its destination may fall. The

remaining zone on the right-hand side of the centerline of the leg from which the movement originates

accommodates right-tum movements, and the remaining zone on the left-hand side handles left-tum

movements. Figure A-2 illustrates conceptually the four zones which may contain the centerlines of legs

on which the respective turning movements have destinations. Default values for the zone angles are set

in the program at 20 and 10 degrees, respectively, for straight movements and for U-tum movements.

A SPEED LIMIT is specified for inbound lanes and for outbound lanes on each leg. The range is

from 1 0 to 80 mph, and default values in the program are 30 mph for both inbound and outbound lanes.

Prompts permit the user to enter a separate, chosen value within this range for each set of inbound and

each set of outbound lanes on each leg. Speed limit information is taken from the geometry processor in

the actual simulation process and provided to each simulated driver on each intersection leg.

Partially-blocked lanes can be specified by the user. For example, channelization might block part

of a lane to form a left-tum bay that would be much shorter than the other inbound lanes on a leg, or a bus

stop might block the portion of either an inbound or an outbound lane nearest the lane terminal.

Construction barricades or a loading zone might block part of the length of a lane somewhere between the

lane terminal and the outer end of the lane while leaving lengths of the lane at both ends open for use.

Prompts in the program allow the user to specify the USABLE LENGTH OF LANE at either or both ends

of each inbound and outbound lanes on a leg. Simulated vehicles move into and out of the usable

portions of partially-blocked lanes by executing lane-changing maneuvers to or from an adjacent lane

along a haH-wavelength cosine curve path. Figure A-3 illustrates the three partially-blocked lane

configurations that can be simulated and shows the dimensions which must be specHied by the user.

Diamond Interchanges

SpecHications for diamond interchanges require several additional or dHferent items compared to

single intersections. Each of the two intersections composing the diamond is composed of three external

legs as well as several internal lanes which connect them as shown in Figure A-1. The terminology which

refers to the connection between the intersections as internal lanes is basic to the diamond interchange

description and data entry process. As with the single intersections, users specify the orientation of

external legs with an angle measured clockwise from a north pointing reference to the centerline of the

leg. Internal lanes, however, have a fixed orientation of 90 - 270 degrees or east-west. Therefore, for any

interchange, but particularly for a skewed diamond (where leg angles are not all increments of 90

degrees), the recommended means of determining the leg angles for external legs is the following.

Orient the interchange sketch from which leg angles are to be computed with the centerline of the internal

lanes on a 90 - 270 degree (east -west) line. Measure or compute the leg angles for external legs with the

sketch oriented in this manner and enter these in response to the screen prompts. As shown in

Figure A-1(d), eight possible curb return radii connect external legs to internal lanes, however, only six

are required as user specifications. The two interior curb returns on the left and right sides, respectively,

of the interchange are equivalent. Depending upon orientation of the interchange only one of the two

interior radius values on each side is critical to right turn operations while the other has minimal impact.

Therefore, the user is prompted for only one of the two internal radius values on each side.

Driver-Vehicle Data

The driver-vehicle processor in the TEXAS Model arranges all data that are needed by the model to

characterize driver and vehicle behavior into a format that is suitable for use in the actual simulation

process. The data which can be defined by the user for each run through the current version of the data­

entry program is listed in Table A-2 and discussed below.

MINIMUM HEADWAY Is used in the simulation process to define the minimum time in seconds

which will be allowed between the fronts of successive vehicles passing a point. A range from 1.0 to 3.0

seconds is permitted, and the default value is set in the program at 1.0 seconds.

The TEXAS Model allows up to 15 vehicle classes to be characterized by the user, but in the

current version of GDVDATA, the NUMBER OF VEHICLE CLASSES is set to the default value of exactly

12 classes. In using this data-entry program, a value for all of these vehicle classes must be used in the

traffic mix, but the proportions of each class may be changed by specifying percentage values for the MIX

OF VEHICLE CLASSES IN INBOUND TRAFFIC in response to prompts in the program. The sum of the

percentages for the 12 classes must equal 100 percent. The user may elect to use the default

percentages which provide a preset mix of the 12 vehicle classes in the inbound traffic stream on each

leg. These default values are shown in Table A-2.

The NUMBER OF DRIVER CLASSES may range from 1 to 5 in the TEXAS Model, but the present

GDVDAT A program always uses three of these classes. The percentage of each driver class is

automatically set to the default value that is embedded in the driver-vehicle processor. It is anticipated that

GDVDATA will be modified at a later time to allow the user to enter the number of driver classes and specify

the mix of driver classes In response to a series of prompts. The embedded default values (shown In

Table A-2) are thought to be representative of usual driver characteristics.

In order to simulate actual traffic behavior on Inbound lanes of reasonable length, the PERCENT

OF LEFT-TURNING VEHICLES ENTERING IN THE MEDIAN LANE and the PERCENT OF RIGHT­

TURNING VEHICLES ENTERING IN THE CURB LANE must be specified by the user. These percentages

may range from 50 to 1 00 percent, and a default value has been set in the program at 80 percent for each

of the respective lanes. Normally, a sim.Jiated vehicle will be able to make only one lane-change maneuver

on the inbound leg. The user should therefore exercise good judgment In specifying reasonable

percentages of tuming movements in relation to the percentage of the total inbound traffic which will be

entering the system in that lane.

The user must specify the lanewise distribution of traffic that enters the system on the available

inbound lanes at the outer end of each leg. Prompts in the GDVDATA request PERCENT OF INBOUND

TRAFFIC TO ENTER IN THIS LANE. The percent of traffic in each lane may range from 0 through 100

percent, but the sum must be 100 percent. Various default values are set in the permanent library files of

GDVDAT A for these percentages.

A frequency distribution for the time headways between successive vehicles entering the

sim.Jiated intersection system on the Inbound lanes m.Jst be specified by the user. Table A-3 gives the

NAME FOR INBOUND TRAFFIC HEADWAY FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION which may be chosen by the

user and also shows the PARAMETER FOR HEADWAY FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION that must be

specified by the user in response to a prompt in the GDVDATA. This parameter defines the shape of the

frequency distribution. Default values in GDVDAT A are a shifted negative exponential type frequency

distribution (SNEGEXP) with a parameter of two seconds.

The TOTAL HOURLY VOLUME INBOUND ON LEG may range from 0 through 4,000 vehicles per

hour (vph) and must be specified by the user. Default values In the permanent library flies correspond to a

volume of 200 vph In each inbound lane.

In order for each simulated vehicle to enter the system at an appropriate speed for the intersection

situation, a MEAN SPEED OF VEHICLES ENTERING THE SYSTEM ON THIS LEG must be specified by

the user. This mean speed may range from 1 to 80 mph. A default value of 28 mph is used in GDVDATA.

An 85-PERCENTILE SPEED OF VEHICLES ENTERING THE SYSTEM ON THIS LEG must also be given

to define the scatter of entry speeds about the mean. This speed shouk:l be higher than the mean

speed and may range from 1 to 80 mph. The default value in GDVDATA is 31 mph.

Every vehicle that enters the simulated intersection system on the inbound lanes of a leg has a

destination to the outbound lanes of some leg. The user must specify PERCENT OF INBOUND TRAFFIC

TO LEG DESTINATIONS by defining the percentage of all entering traffic on the leg which has a

destination on every leg in the system, including the leg from which the traffic entered. The percentage to

a leg destination may range from 0 through 100 percent, but the sum of all specified percentages must

equal 100 percent. Various default values have been set for each intersection type in the permanent

library files.

Libraries

The geometric arrangements of many intersections of practical interest fall into a few basic patterns

according to the number of legs and lanes, the leg angles, and size. Similarly, traffic patterns can be

characterized by representative parameters such as volume, speed, and direction of travel.

For the convenience of the users of the TEXAS Model, a series of 20 typical geometric

arrangements and traffic patterns have been configured and stored for use In GDVDATA. These files,

which cannot be changed by the user, are called the PERMANENT LIBRARY. Each file in the permanent

library contains all the geometric and traffic data that are needed for simulating the conditions described

by the data in the file. Appendix A illustrates the contents of each file in the permanent library. A plot of

the important geometric features of each intersection that can be generated from the data is shown along

with a simplified, preconstructed diagram which can be displayed on the screen of an alphanumeric

terminal. A listing of the alphanumeric data needed by the geometry processor and the driver-vehicle

processor Is also included in this appendix for each permanent library file. The user can study the

appendix to determine whether or not one of the files in the permanent library contains data which define

an intersection situation of interest. If one of the files describes the situation exactly and the user wants to

utilize the data contained in the permanent library tile without modification, prompts in GDVDATA will guide

the user through this process.

If one of the files in the permanent library can be used after modification, prompts in GDVDATA will

guide the user in making the desired changes. Once the decision has been made to change the data

copied from a permanent library file, the user must also decide whether to use the modified data file only

once and then automatically eradicate it or to save it for reuse at some later time.

A unique name must be assigned to any data file that is to be saved. Checks are buih into

GDVDATA to warn the user about possible tile name duplication. Many computer systems automatically

store named data files permanently, but some systems eradicate these tiles when the user logs off the

system or the job ends. In order to assure that a named data file is saved, the user of GDVDATA must

make certain that the named data files will be written to permanent storage on the computer system being

used.

The USER-GROUP LIBRARY Is a special feature of GDVDATAwhich provides convenient access

to previously-used files that have been saved. This feature is particularly efficient when the same

Intersection geometry and traffic are to be used repeatedly in several simulation runs as it will not be

necessary to rerun the geometry and driver vehicle processors each time. The user-group library consists

of the names of up to 17 data files that have been (1) saved on a permanent file, and (2) entered into the

user-group library. This library serves as a cross-reference, or an index, to data files which have been

previously prepared and saved by users on the same computer system.

Page 49: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

When a user of GDVDATA names a data file and requests that It be saved, the program will begin

constructing a data file and attert1)t to add the name of the file to the user-group library. If there is space in

the library, the name will be added immediately, and a confirmation message will be displayed on the

screen. If the library is already full, prompts will state this fact, display the names of the 16 files currently

contained in the library. and ask the user whether to (1) delete a name and replace it with the new file

name, or (2) leave the library intact and save the named data file without adding it to the library. If the user

choses to delete a file name from the user-group library, the name to be deleted must be indicated.

When the data in a file that Is named in the user-group library is first processed by the geometry

processor and/or the driver-vehicle processor, the output from these processors is written to permanent

files and indexed to the related file name in the library. At any later time, a user can utilize the previously­

constructed geometry and driver-vehicle processor output files sii11'1Y by defining a file in the user-group

library. Prompts in GDVDATA advise the user as to which processor output files are already available. The

important function of the user-group library is to provide users with convenient access to previously­

constructed geometry and driver-vehicle processor output files through a name that is listed in the library.

USING THE DATA-ENTRY PROGRAM GDVDATA

The purpose of the data-entry program, GDVDATA, Is to make communication between the user

and the TEXAS Model as easy as possible. In this section, the technique for using the program In an

Interactive mode through an alphanumeric terminal is described and illustrated with examples. The current

version of the program takes information that is entered by the user via a terminal and converts it into a

format which is suitable for input to the geometry processor (GEOPRO) and the driver-vehicle processor

(DVPRO) of the TEXAS Model.

In utilizing GDVDATA, the user either manipulates data files which have been prepared previously

and stored in the computer or creates new files. For convenience, sets of data files and lists of data file

names, called libraries, have been incorporated into GDVDATA. These libraries are described in the

previous section. Data files in the PERMANENT LIBRARY may be copied, but not changed, by the user.

The names of the data files that are listed in the USER-GROUP LIBRARY provide a cross-reference, or an

index, to data files which have been previously prepared and saved by users on the same computer

system. This list of names, and the associated data files, can be changed by any GDVDATA user who Is

operating on the same computer system.

Notation Used In This Guide

The following symbols and characters are utilized in this guide.

D This symbol indicates that the user should press the specified key on the alphanumeric terminal keyboard. Use only uppercase characters.

A-20

I C/R I The RETURN or CARRIAGE-RETURN key. This may be the ENTER key on some keyboards.

l!ipiiCel The SPACE BAR or SPACE KEY. This key is used to enter a blank character.

Prompts

This box is used in the examples contained in the guide to show data items that were entered by the user. They were entered by pressing, in sequence, the keys that correspond to each item in the box, and then pressing C/R .

Communication between the program and the user is through prompts displayed by the program

and through keyboard entries (also called keylns) made by the user. Program prompts may be in the form

of questions or requests that require a user response, or they may be informative prompts that display

Information which is needed by the user. Other prompts report action that has been taken by the

program.

The prompts which require user response can be considered in three distinct categories. First,

there are prompts that advise the user about how a desired data file can be obtained. The second type of

prompt requests that the user enter specific data for inclusion in the data file. The third type of prompt will

include a display of data that are in the file and request that the displayed data be reviewed and, if desired,

revised by the user.

Prompts are intended to provide sufficient guidance to enable the user to respond in a manner that

will result in successful communication with the program. If the prompts, which are displayed in

abbreviated form, are not understood, the user can press

to request the program to display any additional Information related to the prompt that is available. The

"HELP" keyin is sometimes useful to redisplay information that has been displaced from the display

screen.

Notation Used In Prompts

The following symbols and characters appear in the prompts on the screen and in hard copy.

(1) SQUARE BRACKETS, [ J, indicate default values.

(2) ANGLE BRACKETS, < >, indicate constraints on data.

(3) BRACES, {},indicate optional elements.

(4) DOUBLE QUOTES, " ", appear In prompts to identify the exact information that currently exists in a file, e.g., ID ... "4X4" means that the identification name for the subject file is 4X4.

(5) PERIODS, ... , when Included In a data specification prompt, a string of periods indicates that the preceding element may be repeated one or more times. The number of periods in the string has no meaning.

(6) A QUESTION MARK, ? , indicates that the user can always respond to the prompt by pressing I!] I CIA I for yes, or [ill I C/R I for no. ·

Retrieving, Revising, Saving, and Building Flies

A file which is needed for input to the geometry processor (GEOPRO) and/or the driver-vehicle

processor (DVPRO) may be obtained in one of several ways. Three different situations, or cases, can

exist under which a user might want to utilize GDVDATA to prepare such input. These cases are

described below along with possible alternative actions that the user might desire. Each of these actions

can apply to simulation of a diamond interchange as well as a single intersection.

Case 1. Use a File From the Permanent Library (see Appendix A)

One may select either a diamond or single intersection from the permanent library by selecting the

appropriate file name as indicated in Appendix A.

(1) Action 1 a. Choose a file from the permanent library and use the file as is.

(2) Action 1b. Copy a file from the permanent library, revise it, name the revised file, add the name to the USER-GROUP LIBRARY and save the new file for future use.

(3) Action 1c. Copy a file from the permanent library, revise it, use it once, and eradicate it.

Case 2. Use a File Which Has Been Previously Prepared, Named, and Saved

(1) Action 2a. Use a previously-prepared file as is. If this data file is named In the user-group library and has already been processed by GEOPRO and/or DVPRO, output from these processors will also be on file. Availability of these output files will be made known to the user by prompts.

(2) Action 2b. Revise the previously-prepared data file and use the revised file. The name of the file will remain the same, but the data in the file will be permanently changed by the revision and cross-references in the user-group library will be corrected.

(3) Action 2c. Copy a previously-prepared data file, revise the copied data, name the revised file, add the name of the revised file to the user-group library, and save the new file for future use. The original data file wUI remain intact.

(4) Action 2d. Copy a previously-prepared data file, revise the copied data file, use the revised data file once. and eradicate it.

Case 3. Build a New File By Keying In Data Through the Terminal

One may elect to key in data for a diamond or single intersection by responding appropriately to a

prompt which asks if modeling of a diamond is desired.

Page 52: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

A-22

(1) Action 3a. Name the newly-built file, add its name to those already listed in the user-group library, and save the file for future use.

(2) Action 3b. Use the newly-built file only once and eradicate it.

The process of using GDVDAT A Interactively to deal with these various situations is illustrated in

the following series of examples.

Examples

The first-time user of GDVDATA is encouraged to first read the preceding sections of the GUIDE

and then actually go through the steps outlined below to exercise the program for a CASE 1 situation, as

previously defined. This will familiarize the user with the terminology and notation which appear In the

GUIDE and in the pro"1>1S on the screen. Other examples follow the same basic format.

Case 1. Action 1 a. Using a data file from the PERMANENT LIBRARY without change. The

information which will appear on the screen while exeruting this example is shown in Figure A-4.

To select a file from the permanent library and use it unchanged, first log onto the computer and

start the program. The log-on procedure depends on the type of computer being used. If you are not

familiar with this procedure, ask the System Manager of the site for assistance or see the manual for your

computer. The program name is "GDVDATA". To start the program, press

This message Indicates that the data-entry program GDVDAT A has ended.

Five more examples are presented in Appendix B. These examples show the flow of the data-entry

process and illustrate various features of GDVDATA.

Keying In Data Fields Requested by Prompts

The data-entry program GDVDAT A provides the user with prompts for entering data into a series of

data fields which are later encoded automatically by the program into a group of data lines that are needed ' by the geometry and driver-vehicle processors of the TEXAS Model. The prompt-requested data are

entered sequentially in a free-field format through the keyboard. During keyboard data entry, all data fields

must be separated by commas.

Page 56: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

A-26

If data for a prorfl)t-requested field are not specified by the user, values will be set automatijlly ty the program to the appropriate default value. Also, keying in an empty field (i.e., pressing [] • )

causes the field to be set to the default value. Keying in a blank field (i.e., pressing,~, ) will cause

the field to be left blank. For example, pressing

will set Field 1 to the default value (the first comma denotes the .f1Dd. of the first field), set Field 2 to 80,

leave Field 3 blank, set Field 4 to the default value, set Field 5 to 3, and set Field 6 to 2. All other fields (if

any) requested by the prompt will be set to the respective default values.

One of three formats is used for entering prompt-requested data into each field. Specifications for

these field formats are described below.

(1) AX - The letter A designates the type of field as alphanumeric. Data entered into this type of field can include any conventional alphanumeric character (i.e., A-Z and 0-9) and any other character that is defined in the character set of the host computer. The number which appears at location X gives the maximum number of characters which can be accommodated in the alphanumeric data field. After data entry and pressing IctAl , the data will be left-justified and any blank spaces will be filled automatically.

(2) IX - The letter I designates the type of field as integer. Only integer values (i.e., 0-9) can be used. A minus sign may precede the integers to indicate negative numbers. It is not necessary to enter + signs. The number which appears at location X in this format gives the maximum number of characters, including signs which may be used in the data field. The entered data will be right-justified after pressing I CIA I . If more than X characters are entered, only the rightmost of those entered will be used.

(3) FX.Y - The letter F designates the type of field as floating point, thereby indicating that entered data can include Integers (i.e., 0-9) and an optional decimal point. A minus sign may proceed the number to designate negative values, but the + sign need not be entered. The number which appears at location X in the prompt shows the maximum number of characters, including the decimal point and the minus sign, which can be used in the field, and the number which appears at location Y gives the number of characters which will be used to the right of the decimal point after rounding. The rounded data will be entered and right-justified automatically after pressing I CIA I .

Figure A-5 shows an example of the information which will be displayed as the program prompts the

user to enter INBOUND TRAFFIC HEADWAY FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION DATA. This prompt is

displayed as part of the sequence of building a file by keying in data. Items (j) through ® will be

displayed, then the program will wait for the user response, (!). By pressing the sequence of keys shown

at (!). followed by pressing I CIA I the user will specify an ERLANG headway frequency distribution, an

hourly volume of inbound vehicles of 400 vph, an ERLANG distribution parameter of 3, a mean speed of

29.0 mph, an 85-percentile speed of 34.3 mph and a standard mix of vehicle classes in the inbound traffic.

will permit the user to redisplay the information at any time.

Keying In Data Specifications

In lieu of using data In a library file for intersection geometry, the user may enter the required data

via the keyboard. To relieve the user of pari of the tedious and repetitions task of keying in every data item

that is required for defining the geometry of each leg and lane, the data-entry program allows the user to

describe a desired leg or lane arrangement simply by specifying the values for only those data items which

are different from the built-in configuration. A prompt In the program will request LEG SPECS and display

the format for the number of inbound lanes, the number of outbound lanes, the existence of an exclusive

left-tum lane, the length of the exclusive left-tum lane, the leg angle, and the leg centerline offset.

Keying in

will bring up a description of the items on the display. Only the number of inbound lanes and the number

of outbound lanes must be Included In the specification. Each of the other four items Is optional, as the

program will set them to a default value if not included. By placing data from the specification in the

appropriate data fields and using default values for all other fields, data lines that describe the geometry of

a leg and the associated lanes are completed by GDVDATA. These data lines will then be displayed for

the user to review and, if desired, revise.

When prompted to enter leg or lane specifications, the user may choose to enter Individual data

fields instead of the specifications. This can be indicated to the program by pressing

followed by data fields as described previously, e.g. pressing

will describe a leg with a leg angle of 270, 3 inbound lanes, 2 outbound lanes, and default values for all

other fields in the leg-geometry data line. The data line will then be displayed for the user to review and

possibly revise.

After the leg data have been accepted by the user, the program will prompt for the appropriate

number of lane specifications. H the user chooses to enter lane data fields instead of lane specifications,

the "DATA-...• " keyin may be used. As usual, the data will be displayed for the user to review and possibly

revise.

The form of the .leg and lane specifications is shown in Figure A-8. Similar information will be

displayed if the user presses

in response to a prompt to enter a lane or leg specification.

Diamond Interchange Specifications

When describing a diamond interchange, the user will be prompted for specifications of the

intemallanes connecting the two intersections (See Figure A-1 (d)) in addition to the external legs. The

display which will be provided is illustrated in Figure A-7. As noted earlier, the user is assumed to have a

sketch of the interchange oriented with the internal lanes on a 90 - 270 degree or east-west direction.

Referring to this sketch, the user enters the number of internal lanes which permit traffic to move toward

the right intersection, the number permitting movement toward the left intersection and the distance •

between the centers of the two intersections.

The "Similar-To" leg specification shown in Figure A-7 can be very helpful to users describing a

diamond interchange. After describing any of the external legs of an interchange, that specification can

be essentially reflected for a diagonally opposite leg using this statement. For example, legs 1 and 4

(Figure A-1 (d)) might be exactly alike except for orientation. Instead of providing a complete specification

for leg 4 after describing leg 1, the "Similar To" statement could be used to replicate leg 1 as leg 4 with

only a change in the leg angle or orientation.

Editing Data Fields

Data that have been entered as part of a file may be edited by entering an edit request in response

to a prompt. This prompt will be displayed in two different ways. First, when the user is keying in data for a

new file, the prompt will be displayed after each data line has been entered. This will permit the user to

immediately review and, if desired, revise the data. Second, when the user is revising data from an

existing file, each line of data will be displayed in the same sequence in which it was originally entered,

and the user will be prompted to either edit the data or accept it unchanged.

There are four distinct forms of edit requests: 1) the text-edit request, 2) the data-field edit request,

3) the lane-data edit request, and 4) the field column data edit request. The text-edit request is useful for

editing title text and permits substitution, deletion, and insertion of characters in the title. The lane-data

edit request and the field column data edit requests allow editing of lane data-fields. The data-field edit

request permits editing of data in all other types of data lines.

CONCEPTS AND USE OF THE DATA-ENTRY PROGRAM SIMDATA

The simulation processor, SIMPRO, in the TEXAS Model utilizes the output from two pre-simulation

data processors, GEOPRO and DVPRO, to define the geometric features of the intersection and the

operational characteristics of each simulated driver-vehicle unit respectively. In the Version 3.0 of the

TEXAS Model, the user communicates with the model concerning these parameters via the data-entry

program called GDVDATA as described in the previous sections of this report. Another data-entry

program, SIMDATA, is also provided to aid the user in defining the additional simulation and traffic-control

parameters that are needed by SIMPRO. A series of prompt and instructions are utilized in SIMDATA, as

in GDVDATA, to guide the user through this remaining part of the data-entry process.

SIMULATION PARAMETERS

The prompts issued by SIMDATA follow closely the order in which they would be coded in an

original SIMPRO input "deck", or card image file. The first items requested by SIMDATA are basic

simulation parameters: the length of start-up and simulation time, the time increment or "DT" for the

simulation, output listing options, and parameters for car following, conflict checking, queuing, and delay

statistics. These items are described in detail below.

Start-Up and Simulation Time

Prior to data entry with SIMDATA, GDVDATA will have been used to specify a total time for the

TEXAS Model run. This time is further divided into start-up time and simulation time in SIMDATA.

The start-up time is used to allow the model to achieve steady-state conditions before traffic

statistics are taken from the model. A time of 5 minutes is suggested, and this is the default value supplied

by the program.

To speed data entry, the simulation time will be automatically calculated by SIMDATA as the length

of run time entered in GDVDATA minus the start-up time. For example, if a 30-minute run is specified in

GDVDATA, a 5 minute start-up time is entered in SIMDATA, a simulation-time value of 25 minutes will be

supplied to SIMPRO by SIMDATA.

Page 68: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

A-38

The run time specified to GDVDATA Is used by the driver-vehicle preprocessor, DVPRO to

generate a list of simulated driver-vehicle units and their headways. These driver-vehicle units and

headways are supplied to SIMPRO for both start-up and actual simulation. Thus, if the start-up time

specHied Is 5 minutes, and the simulation time specified is 15 minutes, the list of driver-vehicle units and

headways supplied by DVPRO must be at least 20 minutes long. SIMDATA ensures that the start-up and

simulation times entered are compatible with the run time specHied in GDVDATA.

Time Increment "DT'' tor the Simulation Process

The time increment for simulation, "DT', Is the time step interval used in updating the status of each

driver-vehicle unit in the simulation process. Although the default value of this parameter in SIMDATA is

0.5 second, an increment of 1.0 second will normally provide sufficient resolution for most signalized

intersection studies. The longer time increment means that fewer calculations are required and that actual

computation time needed for the simulation will be reduced.

Output Listing Options

The user can specify printing of statistical summaries of each inbound approach flow and individual

turning movement, or can request output in an abbreviated, summary format. In addition, data files of

individual vehicle information can be generated for further processing by the emissions analysis program,

EM PRO, or for graphics display on an IBM-PC.

These options can be selected by keying in "YES" or "NO" for the desired approach or turning­

movement statistical summaries, and for abbreviated summary output format and the emissions

analysis/display tape. Default values set in SIMDATA are "YES" for the statistical summaries and "NO" for

the abbreviated output and emissions tape.

Parameters for Car Following

Parameters for the car-following model used in the TEXAS Model can be modHied by the user by

changing the default values of lambda = 2.800, alpha= 4000, and mu = 0.800 which are supplied

automatically by SIMDATA. The user Is referred to Reference 1 for detailed discussion of the applicatiOn

of these parameters.

Conflict Checking

Lead and lag zones for the conflict checking procedure used by the TEXAS Model can be entered

by the user via SIMDATA. Default values of 1.3 seconds lead and .5 seconds lag are provided by

SIMDATA. The user is referred to Reference 1 for a detailed discussion of the application of these

parameters.

Queueing

This parameter directs the TEXAS Model to assume that a vehicle is in a queue when it is closer

than a given distance to the vehicle ahead or to the stop line and traveling less than 2 mph. The vehicle

ahead must also be in a queue. A default value of 30 feet is supplied by SIMDATA for the given distance.

Special Delay Statistics

Page 69: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

A-39

Special delay statistics for vehicles operating below a given speed can be collected and

summarized separately in the output from the TEXAS Model. This parameter specifies the speed below

which these special statistics are collected. The default value in SIMDATA Is 10 miles per hour.

INTERSECTION AND LANE-CONTROL DATA

Intersection control data can be entered into SIMDATA for one of three dHferent types of traffic

control:

(1) Uncontrolled approaches.

(2) Stop or yield-controlled approaches.

(3) Signal-controlled approaches

Non-Signalized Control

In the TEXAS Model, it is possible to specify four different types of intersection control for

unsignalized intersections. These types are:

(1) uncontrolled,

(2) yield,

(3) stop, less than aU-way, and

(4) stop, all-way.

In addition, with each of these types of intersection control, it is possible to specHy the type of traffic

control for each lane of each approach. These choices are termed "lane control" In SIMDATA, and are

allowable for various types of Intersection control according to Table A-4.

It can be seen that the variety of lane-control specifications that are available makes it possible to

describe situations in which dHferent types of lane-control exist on a single approach. For example, at an

intersection where a separate right-tum lane is provided, "stop" control can be specified for the main traffic

lanes, and "yield" control can be specified for the right-tum lane.

Signalized Control

Signalized control of an intersection is specified in much the same way as non-signalized control,

with the type of "intersection control" entered for the whole intersection, and "lane control" entered for

each lane of each approach. The possible types of control for a signalized intersection are:

(1) "Pretimed signal",

(2) "Semi-actual signal",

(3) "Full-actuated signal", and

(4) "Texas Diamonct" for actuated diamond interchanges.

For all these intersection control types, it is possible to specify lane control of any of the following

types for each individual lane:

(1) "Blocked" (specified in GDVDATA entry),

Page 70: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

*"Blocked" lane control is specified in the entry process for GDVDATA and cannot be changed with SIMDATA. If "blocked" lane control has been previously specified with GDVDATA, SIMDATA will automatically provide "blocked" lane control in the proper lanes.

Page 71: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

(2) "Yield",

(3) "Signal without left or right-tum-on-red",

(4) "Signal with left-tum-on-red", and

(5) "Signal with right-tum-on-red".

A-41

As with the non-signalized case of an approach with a right-tum lane mentioned in the previous

section , it is possible to specify a yield-controlled right-tum lane on a signalized approach. If the intention

is to install yield control on a right-tum lane, the "yield" lane-control specification automatically supersedes

a "right-tum-on-red" specification. In either case, entry of a "yield" or "right-tum-on-red" control should be

made only on the extreme right-hand-lane of an approach (or in the far left lane of a one-way approach).

The specification of lane control should not be confused with the type of signal indication that is

visible to each lane. The lane-control specification simply shows whether a sign or traffic signal controls

movement on that lane, and whether turns on red are allowed. The actual signal indications that will be

presented to each lane are entered in the section of SIMDATA called "Green Interval Sequence Data".

SIGNAL PHASING

In addition to the type of lane control, the signal phasing and associated signal Indications must be

specified through SIMDATA. The type of Intersection control is established via the keyin of the

intersection-control and lane-control data. SIM DATA then takes the proper action to prompt for data about

phase sequences, signal indications, timing data, and for actuated signals, detector placement and

connection. Definitions used in SIMDATA relative to signal phasing are shown in Table A-5.

Controller and Traffic Phases

After lane-control data have been entered, SIMDATA prompts for the entry of phase-sequence

data. Phase-sequence data are entered in the same way for both pretimed and actuated signals at both

single intersections and diamond interchanges. Simulated controller operation for both pretimed and

actuated types of single intersection control is based on a "camstack" model that is analogous to the

operation of a camstack in an electromechanical controller. The simulated controller for diamond

interchanges is based upon a dual ring, six phase scheme which under actuated operation has full phase

skipping capability.

For single intersections controller phases are referred to by letters and consist of combinations of

concurrent traffic phases. Traffic phases are designated by NEMA standard phase numbers and consist

of intervals during which specified traffic movements may occur (See Figure A-9a). Timing and detector

data are input for controller phases, not traffic phases.

For diamond interchanges, traffic and controller phases are identical, therefore the prompts for

diamond interchange specifications merely use the term phase and use NEMA numbers for identification

(See Figure A-9b). The procedure for specifying pretimed signal control for a diamond interchange is the

same as that for a single Intersection. However, if actuated control is to be used for a diamond, and has

been appropriately specified in the Parameter-Option Data, the user is prompted to select one of four

available phase sequence patterns. These are referred to as "Figure 3", "Figure 4", "Figure 6" or

"Figure 7" and are illustrated in Figures A-1 0 through A-13.

When describing signalized control for a single intersection or a diamond under pretimed control,

SIMDATA first prompts for the desired number of controller phases. This is the number of green intervals

possible during the signal cycle. The number of phases can vary from 2 to 8.

Once the number of controller phases for an intersection has been set, it cannot be changed; a

new SIMDATA data file must be entered from the beginning of the data-entry sequence for SIMDATA.

For each controller phase, SIMDATA then prompts for which traffic (NEMA) phase(s) should be

green during that controller phase. In the single intersection mode, up to two traffic phases can be

assigned to each controller phase, and a given traffic phase can be assigned more than once, to more

than one controller phase. Once the controller phases have been defined, SIMDATA prompts for timing

information.

The TEXAS Model simulates the operation of pretimed and actuated single intersection signals, as

well as pretimed diamonds in the same manner as a "camstack"-based electromechanical controller.

However, controller phases can be skipped, and can "clear to" any other controller phase. In addition,

certain controller phases can be specified as "minor movement" phases, and tied to the clearance of a

particular parent phase in the manner of an electromechanical minor-movement controller. These features

allow the TEXAS Model, when desired, to closely model the operation of a modem quad-left controller.

Simulating a Elght·Phase Controller for a Single Intersection

To model an eight-phase quad-left controller operating in a "leading left turn" manner on all

approaches, the set of controller phases entered into SIMDATA would be as follows:

Any controller phase may clear to any other controller phase in any order. However, a priority must

be set up so that certain controller phases are called in a logical order when more than one controller

phase has a call active. The TEXAS Model always moves forward in the specified phase sequence,

skipping phases as appropriate. For example, say the controller is in controller phase D and receives calls

to controller phase B and then controller phase H. The TEXAS Model will service controller phase H first

regardless of whether controller phase B or H received the call first.

SIGNAL TIMING FOR ALL CASES EXCEPT ACTUATED DIAMOND INTERCHANGES

Pretlmed Signals

Timing data for pretimed signals can be entered In seconds, or as a percentage of a fixed cycle

length. When entering data as a percent of cycle length, SIMDATA first prompts for a cycle length in

seconds, then for percents for each of the green, yellow, and red intervals. SIMDATA checks to see

whether the entered percents sum to 100.

Actuated Signals .. Single Intersections

The timing of actuated signals is prompted for by SIMDATA after the designation of controller

phases has been completed. SIMDATA prompts for initial, vehicle, yellow-change, and all-red intervals,

then prompts for the maximum extension allowable for each phase (this is not the NEMA standard

"maximum" but rather the maximum extension allowed past the initial interval after a call has been

registered on another controller phase). SIMDATA also prompts for "skip phase switch position", whether

the phase is a minor movement, and whether the phase is a dual-left followed by two single lefts.

Green Interval Sequence Data

Once controller phasing and timing have been established, SIMDATA prompts for "green interval

sequence data". This information, in the form of a table (see Table A-6), gives the type of signal indication

that will be presented to each lane for each controller phase. From the green interval sequence data, the

timing data, and the controller phase assignment data, SIMDATA automatically builds the list of camstack

card images that define the exact sequence of signal intervals.

The green interval sequence table lists, for each phase and each lane, which of the following green

signal indications will be displayed to each lane during that phase:

(1) "C" - Circular green - all permitted movements may enter the intersection subject to appropriate conflict checking.

(2) "L" - Left green arrow - protected left turn.

(3) "S"- Straight green arrow- through movements only.

(4) "R"- Right green arrow- protected right tum.

A-51

Any of the above Indications can appear together, except "LS" and "LA". All other (blank) entries in

the table can be assumed to be red. SIMDATA automatically assigns unsignalized, sign-controlled, and

blocked lanes the code "UN".

SIMDATA automatically prepares major portions of the green interval table by assigning values

based on the allowable movement codes from GDVDATA and the lane-control data entered previously.

For example, if the movement code for the center lane of a three-lane approach is specified with a

movement code of "S" and a lane-control code of "SI", SIMDATA supplies a green interval table entry of

"C". If indicated by the controller phasing specifications, SIMDATA will supply "L" for each left-tum lane

with a movement code of "L" and a lane-control code of "L T". Thus, modification of the green interval

sequence table by the user is necessary only when special signal indications exist. such as green right­

tum arrows and overlaps.

Yellow and all-red change intervals are supplied automatically by SIMDATA. The assignment of

yellow and all-red phasing is based on change interval specifications in the Texas Manual of Uniform Traffic

Control Devices.

Permissive Left· Turn Phases

Permissive left-turn phases are entered into SIMDATA by editing the green interval sequence data

in such a manner that a "C" (circular green) signal indication appears to traffic in a left-tum lane (movement

code = "MC").

Overlaps

Strictly speaking, overlaps are not handled in the TEXAS Model. However, by individually editing

the green interval sequence data, and adding additional controller phases, operation of certain overlap

phases can be simulated effectively.

CONTROLLER PHASE CLEAR-TO DATA

In a pretimed controller configuration, each controller phase will automatically clear to the next

controller phase in the sequence; therefore, entry of controller phase clear-to data is unnecessary. In a

semi-actuated controller, the same rule applies, but the actuated phases can be skipped In the phasing

sequence.

In a full-actuated controller, any controller phase can clear to any other controller phase. If full­

actuated control has been specified, for each controller phase, SIMDATA will prompt for a list of other

controller phases that can be cleared to directly from that controller phase.

The TEXAS Model does not currently model a NEMA standard controller; phases can be skipped,

but the order of phase sequence must remain constant. The TEXAS Model does not now model the

operation of other NEMA functions such as hold or force off.

DETECTORS FOR ACTUATED SIGNALS

SIMDATA prompts for the number of vehicle detectors to be utiUzed. Up to 20 detectors can be

specified; once the number of detectors has been set in SIMDATA, it can be Increased but not

decreased. In practice, however, detectors can be deleted as described in the section below, "Detector

Connection".

For a typical quad-left controller with one detector for each through approach, and one detector for

each left-turn pocket, eight detectors must be described. For easy reference, it is recommended that

detectors be numbered accordingly to their corresponding traffic (NEMA) phase numbers.

Detector Location

This data item expresses the location, placement, and type of detection (presence or pulse) of

each detector. The leg number, setback, length of loop, and type (presence/pulse) of detector is

entered, along with a description of which lanes on the approach are covered by the detector (see Figure

A-14) for the nomenclature of detector placement used in SIMDATA.

Detector Connection

Once detectors have been located on the approaches, the detectors are assigned to call various

controller phases. More than one detector may be assigned to call a single controller phase. Detectors

are connected to a controller phase by using "And" or "Or" logic. In addition, including a minus sign("-") in

front of a detector number will cause a logical "Not" condition. For example, if the detector connection

data line is filled in to say "OR 1 2" for a particular controller phase, that controller phase will be called when

a call exists on either detector 1 or 2. likewise, if "AND 6 - 7" is specified, the controller phase will be

called only when detector 6, and not detector 7 are actuated. A detector may be connected to more than

one controller phase; but "And" and "Or" connection logic cannot be mixed on input to the same

controller phase.

As mentioned in "phase sequences", controller phases cannot be serviced in reverse order. For

example, assuming each detector to be in pulse mode, if all detectors for phases H, E, D, and A, are

actuated in that order, calls will be placed to controller phases A, D, E, and H, which will then be executed

In that order starting with the phases after the phase currently in effect, regardless of the order in which

calls were received.

Detectors can be effectively deleted by changing the detector type to "INACTIVE".

SIGNAL TIMING FOR ACTUATED DIAMOND INTERCHANGES

Many of the specifications for actuated signal control of diamond interchanges follows the same

format and terminology as that described in the previous paragraphs. The user is prompted for the basic

five items of timing data for each phase in the same manner as that for a single intersection. However, the

Texas Diamond controller operating under one of the four sequence patterns shown in Figures A-10

Page 83: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

A-53

through A-13 requires additional specifications for a some of as many as 12 special controller Intervals.

These are listed in Figure A-15 with the particular sequence patterns to which they apply. The

terminology used is taken directly from the Texas Standard Specifications for each of the respective

sequence patterns.

Users are also prompted for specifications regarding the state of 12 options which are provided for

this control type. Descriptions of the user prompts and possible responses are provided In Figure A-16.

The sequence pattern diagrams of Figures A-1 0 through A-13 provide information regarding the effects

upon the basic patterns produced by these options.

The Texas Standard Specifications for these control schemes provide for 10 detectors to be

located adjacent to a diamond interchange operating under "Figure 3, 4, 6, or 7" control patterns. The

external leg or internal lanes upon which each detector is installed and the numbering system is fixed by

the standard specification, and therefore, these are fixed In the simulation. The user is prompted

however, for the number of lanes covered, location relative to the lane terminal, detector length and mode

of operation. The user prompt for these data is shown in Figure A-17.

USING THE DATA-ENTRY PROGRAM SIMDATA

Use of the data-entry program, SIMDATA, has been designed to provide an easy means for

entering the simulation and traffic control data that are needed by the TEXAS Model. Prompts and

instructions in the program guide the user through each required step of data entry. This program

automatically derives many of the logical connections and sequences for signal control that formerly made

data entry excessively cumbersome. Entries are quite similar in form to those made with GDVDATA, and

most are simpler.

APPENDIX B. IMPLEMENTATION OF THE TEXAS DIAMOND SIGNAL CONTROLLER IN THE TEXAS MODEL VERSION 3.0

SIMULATION PROCESSOR

The TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic Version 3.0 incoqx>rares modifications to earlier versions of the model for simuJating the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Transportation Diamond Interchange Signal Con­troller. This implementation provides users with a choice of four different phase sequence patterns which are referred to as "Figure 3", "Figure 4", "Figure 6", and "Figure 7". Information provided in the following paragraphs describe modifications made to the simuJation processor ("SIM­PROj which implement these signal controller schemes. The implementation is based upon a literal interpretation of the Texas State Department of Highways and Public Trans­portation (SDHPI) Diamond Controller Operation Specifi­cations [Ref 14 ]. The information which follows is intended for use by a "programmer level" user who does not use the user-friendly pre-processors. That is, most of the specific input data is transparent to users of the user-friendly pre­processors and is. therefore, of little interest However, simulation of very unusual cases or special puqx>se research efforts may find this information extremely helpful.

The user-friendly pre-processor SIMDATA promptS users for data which are formatted in the form of data lines in a fJ.le which is read by the simulation processor SIMPRO. Modifications to SIMPRO begin with an extension to its interpretation of the parameter data line. Parameter line input to SIMPRO has been modified to allow the user to specify type of intersection control as "Figures 3.4, 6, or 7" respectively by entering in columns 39 and 40, a value 8, 9, 10, or 11. Entering any of these special values for type of intersection control causes the following:

(1) sets the number of overlap definitions to a value of 2, (2) sets the first overlap definition as Overlap A, (3) sets the second overlap definition as overlap B, (4) sets overlap A to be made up of phase 1 and phase 3, (5) sets Overlap B to be made up of phase 5 and phase 6, (6) sets the number of rings to a value of 2, (7) sets the number of phases in ring 1 to a value of 3, (8) sets ring 1 to be contain phase 1, 2, and 3, (9) sets the number of phases in ring 2 to a value of 3,

(10) sets ring 2 to contain phases 5, 6, and 7, and (11) sets the number of detectors to a value of 10.

The SDHPT Standard Specification for "Figures 3, 4, 6, and 7" [Ref 14] provides for a system for numbering and locations for the 10 detectors. That system, and the corre­sponding numbering system used in SIMPRO are shown in Fig B-1.

The cam stack line 1 input to SIMPRO has not been modified The number of cam stacks does not include the cam stack line 2 inputs for the overlap definitions.

B-1

The cam stack line 2 input to SIMPRO has been modi­fied to allow the user to enter a value of" A" or "B" for the phase number for the overlap phase definitions and to allow the user to enter a valueof"NCP" (Not Controlled by Phase) for the signal indication three-character code for each lane for lanes not controlled by the phase. The phase number is entered on the cam stack line 2 columns 1 through 2. The signal indication three-character code for each lane is en­tered on the cam stack line 2 columns 6 through 8, 9 through 11, 12 through 14, etc. There should be only one yellow change interval for each phase and an all-red clearance interval if the duration of the all-red is non-zero. There should be only one yellow change interval and no red clearance interval for each overlap phase.

Modifications to the full-actuated signal controller under Texas Diamond operation have deleted requirements for user specifications regarding a number of items on phase line 2. These include the skip phase switch option, recall switch option, minor movement controller option, dual left followed by two single lefts option, detector connection option, number of detectors attached to this phase, number of phases which can be cleared to directly from this phase, and the list of phase numbers which can be cleared to directly from this phase. This data is normally entered on the full­actuated signal controller phase line 2 columns 30 through

For the Texas Dia­mond the full-actuated signal controller phase line 3 input to SIMPRO has been deleted. This input normally defines the list of detectors con­nected to the phase. This list has been fixed for the diamond interchange sig­nal controller with phase 1 connected to detector D 1, phase 2 to detectors 02 and 02A, phase 3 to 03 and Dl3, phase 5 to detectors are 05 and 056, phase 6 to 06, and phase 7 connected to de­tectors 07 and D7 A. A diamond interchange sig­nal controller timer line input has been added to SIMPRO to allow the user to enter the values of the 12 special timer inter­vals (see Ref 14 note 2 intervals and timers). The value entered by the user is referred to as the timer setting and does not change during a simula­tion run. At the appropri­ate moment, the timer setting is loaded into a variable called the timer value which is decre­mented each time scan until the timer value be­comes less than or equal to zero or until the timer is cancelled.

A diamond interchange signal controller option card input has been added to SIMPRO to allow the user to enter the values of the 12 options (see Ref 14 note 4 l/0 assign­ments). The diamond interchange signal controller option card follows the diamond interchange signal controller timer card and precedes the detector card 1. The options are described, along with input requirements in Table B-2.

Variable Names Added for Simullllion of the Actuated Diamond ControUer

The following paragraphs describe new variable names and functions added to SIMPRO to simulate the diamond interchange signal controller. Hold is a name used in the diamond interchange signal controller as a logical variable for each phase with a value of true or false. It is only valid when the phase is the current phase and means that the phase must remain at least until the hold is released If the phase gaps out, maxes out, or times out(setsselect true) and if hold is set true then the diamond interchange signal controller will not allow the next phase to be chosen and entered until hold is set false. Hold is set true when a special timer is initiated for the phase, when simultaneous gap out of a phase combi­nation is required before choosing the next phase, and in certain special conditions defined in Ref 14. Hold is set false when a special timer is timed out or cancelled, when simul­taneous gap out of a phase combination occurs as required, or in certain special conditions defined in Ref 14.

Call is a name used in the diamond interchange signal controller as a logical variable for each phase with a value of true or false. Call means that there is demand for a phase and the phase must be serviced. It is set true when there is detector actuation for the phase when the phase is the current phase in the yellow change or red clearance interval, when there is detector actuation for the phase when the phase is not the current phase, when the phase maxes out, and in certain special conditions defmed in Ref 14. Call is set false when the phase enters the green interval for the phase. Call can be thought of as a memory feature for detector actuations. Select is a name used as a logical variable for each phase with a value of true or false. Select means that a phase has gapped out, maxed out, or timed out and means that the next phase should be chosen. Select is set true for a phase when the current phase gaps out, maxes out, or times out. Select is set false when the time remaining in the current phase is reset to the vehicle interval when there is detector actuation on the current phase while in the green interval and the time into the current phase is greater than the initial interval and set false when the phase becomes the current phase and enters the phase green interval.

Next is a name used as a logical variable for each phase with a value of true or false. Next means that a phase has been chosen to the be the next phase. Next is set true for a phase when the current phase gaps out, maxes out, or times out; chooses the phase to be next; and enters the yellow change interval for the current phase. Next is set false for a

B-3

phase when the phase becomes the current phase and enters the green interval.

Rest means that in the absence of demand for any phase, the controller will remain in the current phase until there is demand for another phase. If a phase is not allowed to rest then the diamond interchange signal controller moves to the next phase in the preferential phase sequence. For "Figure 3", rest is allowed in all phase combinations. For "Figures 4,6,and 7,"restis allowed in phase 1-5,phase2-5,phase3-6, phase 3-7, and optionally other phases defmed by the diamond interchange signal controller options. For "Figure 6", rest is allowed in phase 1-6 if the "Figure 6" option A (Option 7) is "YES" (see Ref 14 "Figure 6" note 3 phase sequence options - option A = ON). For "Figure 7", rest is allowed in phase 1-6 if the "Figure 7" option A (Option 10) is "YES" (see Ref 14 "Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options - option A = ON).

Simgap is a logical variable with a value of true or false. Simgap means that each phase in a phase combination has simultaneous gapped out, maxed out, or timed out (select is true for both phases). In all cases where simgap is to be enforced, hold is set true for both phases until simgap is reached. If one of the phases gaps out, maxes out, or times out before the other phase then the controller waits until the other phase gaps out, maxes out, or times out. When simgap is reached, simgap is set true, hold is set false for each phase, and a new phase is chosen for each ring.

Demand on red is a logical variable for each ring with a value of true or false. Demand on red means that there is demand for service for another phase in the ring and there­fore the max out timer for the ring should be started and the phase should gap out or max out as soon as possible. Demand on red for a ring is set true when call is true for the current phase for the ring and the current phase for the ring is in the yellow change or red clearance interval and set true when call is true for any phase in the ring that is not the current phase.

System demand on red is a logical variable with a value of true or false. It means that there is demand for service for another phase in any ring and therefore when the current phase in a ring gaps out, maxes out, or times out then if demand on red for the ring is false and system demand on red is true or system demand on red is false and rest is false for the current phase then call is set true for the next preferential phase in the ring. This action may cause call to be set true for a phase in the other ring to eventually move the controller in the preferential sequence order to a phase combination which will service the demand. System demand on red is initialized to false each time scan and is set true if call is true for any phase in any ring, set true if there is detector actuation for the current phase for a ring and the current phase for the ring is in the yellow change or red clearance interval, and set true if there is detector actuation for any phase in the ring that is not the current phase.

State PC35 is started when the controller enters phase 3-5 (going from phase 2-5 to phase 3-6), and is ended when the "Figure 7" phase 3-5 clearance green timer (special timer interval!) times out.

Specilll Timer Intervals

This implementation of the diamond interchange con­troller provides several special timer intervals which have varying effects for each of the sequence patterns, "Figures 3, 4, 6, and 7." These are described in the following para­graphs.

The "Figure 3" phase 1-7 advance green timer value is initialized to the "Figure 3" phase 1-7 advance green timer setting (special timer interval 2) when the controller is in phase 2-7 or phase 3-7 and enters the yellow change interval going to phase 1-7. In addition to initializing the timer value, hold is set true for phase 1 and phase 7. The timer value is decremented each time scan if the timer value is greater than 0.0. WhenitbecomeslessthanorequaltoO.O,itissettoO.O, hold is set false for phase 1 and phase 7, State PC 17 is set

false, if there is a call for phase 3, select is set true for phase 1, and if there is a call for phase 6, select is set true for phase 7. See Ref 14 "Figure 3" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers - interval 2. The "Figure 3" phase 2-6 advance green timer value is initialized (special timer interval 3) when the controller is in phase 2-7 or phase 2-5 and enters the yellow change interval going to phase 2-6. In addition to initializing the timer value, hold is set true for phase 2 and phase 6. The timer value is decremented each time scan if it is greater than 0.0. When it becomes less than or equal to O.O,it is set to 0.0, hold is set false for phase 2 and phase 6, State PC26 is set false, if there is a call for phase I, select is set true for phase 2, and if there is a call for phase 5, select is set true for phase 6. See Ref I4 "Figure 3" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers - interval 3. The "Figure 3" phase 3-5 clearance green timer value is initial­ized (special timerinterval12) when the controller enters the green interval for phase 3-5 and the timer setting is not equal to 99.0 (simgap not enforced). Hold is set true for phase 3 and phase 5 and State PC35 is set true. The timer value is decremented each time scan if it is greater than 0.0. When it becomes less than or equal to O.O,it is set to 0.0, hold is set false for phase 3 and phase 5, and State PC35 is set false. If timer setting is equal to 99.0 (simgap is enforced) and State PC35 is set true then the controller waits until select is set true for both phase 3 and phase 5 and then hold is set false for phase 3 and phase 5, State PC35 is set false, simgap is set true, and a new phase is allowed to be selected. See Ref 14 "Figure 3" note 3.e phase sequence.

In addition to

initializing the timer value, hold is set true for phase 2 and phase 6. The timer value is decremented each time scan if it is greater than 0.0.

Detector Connections

The detector connections for detector D3, D 13, D5, and D56 for "Figure 4 ","Figure 6", and "Figure 7" are compli­cated and best described for each phase combination. The detector connections are set when the controller enters the green interval for a new phase. The options effecting the detector connections are Option 1 (enable/disable detector 3 during phase 3-7), Option 2 (enable/disable detector 13 during phase 3-7), Option 3 (enable/disable detector 5 dur­ing phase 2-5), and Option 4 (enable/disable detector 56 during phase 2-5). See Ref 14 note 4 I/0 assignments.

For "Figure 4 ", the following table describes the detec­tor connections for each phase combination. See Ref 14 "Figure4" note 2detectoroperation- D3, D13, D5, and D56. The abbreviation"opt" means that the detector connection is based on Option l, Option 2, Option 3, or Option 4. For "Figure 6", the following table describes the detector con­nections for each phase combination. See Ref 14 "Figure 6" note 4 alternate and overlap detectors - D3, Dl3, D5, and D56. Theabbreviation"opt" means that the detector connec­tion is based on Option 1, Option 2, Option 3, or Option 4,

and ''ph l" means that the detector is connected to phase 1 while "ph6" means that the detector is connected to phase 6.

For "Figure 7", the following table describes the detec­tor connections for each phase combination. See Ref 14 "Figure 7" note4 alternate and overlap detectors- D3, D13, D5, and D56. The abbreviation "opt" means that the detector connection is based on Option 1, Option 2, Option 3, or Option 4, and "phi" means that the detector is connected to phase 1 while "ph6" means that the detector is connected to phase6.

The controller is called each time scan by SIMPRO after all vehicles have been processed for the time scan. During the time scan, detector actuations are noted by SIMPRO for vehicles on an inbound link or on an internal link. The con­troller has an initialization phase that is processed on the first execution only and then the controller is processed sequen­tially in 13 stages.

Controller Stages

A brief explanation of the controller stages is as follows. During the initialization stage, operations associated with initialization are performed. During Stage 1, the timers for the phases are incremented and decremented. During Stage 2, detector actuations are checked for each phase for each ring and special calls are made as necessary. During Stage 3, all appropriate special timer values are decremented and the actions taken when the special timer value becomes less than or equal to 0.0. During Stage4, each ring is processed to check for gap out, max out, or time out. During Stage 5, the next phase is chosen after gap out, max out, or time out. During Stage 6, simgap is checked as required and the appropriate action taken. During Stage 7, the current phase for each ring is processed for the green interval and the controller enters the yellow change interval if necessary. During Stage 8, the current phase for each ring is processed for the yellow change interval and the controller enters the red clearance interval if necessary. During Stage 9, the current phase for each ring is processed for the red clearance interval and the controller enters the green interval for the next phase if necessary. During Stage 10, detector changes that have to be checked each time scan are

processed. During Stage 11, a new cam stack is made if necessary. During Stage 12, changes that have to be made upon entry into the green interval for a new phase are processed. During Stage 13, all detectors are set false.

During the initialization stage the current phase for each ring is set to the starting phase, the interval for each ring is set to green, the cam stack for each ring is positioned to the green interval for the current phase , the next phase number for each ring is set equal to 0, the time into the current phase for each ring is set to 0.0, the time remaining on the gap out timerforthecurrentphaseforeachringissettotheminimum interval for the phase, the max out timer for the current phase for each ring is set to an extremely large number, the cam stack for each ring is merged into one cam stack position, and the overlap cam stacks are checked and merged if necessary.

During Stage 1, the timers for the phases are incre­mented and decremented The time into the current phase for each ring is incremented by the time scan value, the time remaining on the gap out timer for the current phase for each ring is decremented by the time scan value, simgap is set false, new cam stack is set false, new phase for each ring is set false, and the next phase number for each ring is set equal toO.

DuringStage2,detectoractuationsarecheckedforeach phase for each ring and special calls are made as necessary. System demand on red is determined; call is set true for a

phase if there is detector actuation for the phase, the phase is the current phase for a ring, and the phase is in the yellow change or red clearance interval; and call is set true for a phase if there is detector actuation for the phase and the phase is not the current phase for a ring. For "Figure 3", if the controller is in phase 1-6, 3-6, or 1-5 and call is set true for phase 2 or phase 7 then call is set true for phase 3 and phase5(seeRefl4 "Figure3"note3.bphasesequence). For "Figure 3", if the controlleris in phase 2-7 and call is true for phase 1 then call is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 "Figure 3" note 3.d phase sequence- during phase 2-7). For "Figure 3", if the controller is in phase 2-7 and call is true for phase 6 then call is set true for phase 1 (see Ref14 ''Figure 3" note 3.d phase sequence- during phase 2-7).

During Stage 3, all appropriate special timer values are decremented and the actions taken when the special timer value becomes less than or equal to 0.0.

During Stage 4, each ring is processed to check for gap out, max out, or time out. For "Figure 3", Stage 5 is processed within the Stage 4 ring loop. For "Figure 4", "Figure 6", and "Figure 7", Stage 5 is processed after Stage 4 is completed. If simgap is true then the controller skips to Stage 5. If a special timer interval has timed out, the controller branches to the section for processing a gap out or a max out. If select is true for the current phase and hold is trueforthecurrentphase thenthecontrollerskipstothenext ring. Demand on red for the ring is processed next If the current phase is in the yellow change or red clearance interval then the controller skips to the next ring. If there has been detector actuation for the current phase for the ring and the time into the phase for the current phase is greater than the initial interval for the current phase then the time remaining on the gap out timer for the current phase is set to the vehicle interval for the current phase for the ring and select is set false for the current phase. If demand on red for the ring is true and the max out timer for the current phase for the ring is equal to an extremely large number then the max out timer for the current phase for the ring is set to the maxim urn of the time into the phase for the current phase for the ring plus the maximum interval for the current phase for the ring and the minimum interval for the current phase for the ring. If the max out timer for the current phase for the ring is not equal to an extremely large number and the time remaining on the gap out timer for the current phase for the ring is less than or equal to 0.0 then the controller branches to the section for processing a gap out If the time into the current phase for the ring is greater than or equal to the max out timer for the current phase for the ring then the controller branches to the section for processing a max out If the time into the current phase for the ring is greater than or equal to the vehicle interval for the current phase for the ring and there has been detector actuation for the current phase for the ring then call is set false for the current phase. The controller then skips to the next ring.

If gap out has occurred for the current phase for the ring then the following actions are taken. If select is already bUe for the current phase for the ring then the controller skips to the last paragraph for Stage 4. If there have been detector actuations for the current phase for the ring then the control­ler branches to the section for processing a max out. This test is made so that a time out will be counted as a gap out if there is no demand remaining for the phase or will be counted as a max out if there is demand remaining for the phase. If the time into the simulation is greater than the start-up simula­tion time then the total number of gap outs for the current phase for the ring is incremented by 1 and the time into the current phase for the ring is added to the total time into the current phase for gap outs for the ring. The controller then skips to the last paragraph for Stage4.

If max out has occurred for the current phase for the ring then the following actions are taken. If select is already bUe for the current phase for the ring then the controller skips to the last paragraph forStage4. If the time into the simulation is greater than the start-up simulation time then the total number of max outs for the current phase for the ring is incremented by 1 and the time into the current phase for the ring is added to the total time into the current phase for max outs for the ring. The controller then skips to the last paragraph for Stage 4. For the fmal operation for Stage 4, select is set true for the current phase for the ring and call is set false for the current phase.

During Stage 5, the next phase is chosen after gap out, max out, or timeout. Stage 5 for"Figure 3" is processed only ifselectistrueforthecurrentphaseforthering. Ifthecurrent phase for any ring is in the yellow change or red clearance interval then the controller skips to the next ring. If hold is true for the current phase for the ring then the controller skips to the next ring.

If (1) phase 2-7 is not the current phase combination, (2) phase 2-7 is the current phase combination, phase 2 is the current phase for the ring, and Option 5 is "NO", or (3) phase 2-7 is the current phase combination, phase 7 is the current phase for the ring, and Option 6 is "NO", then the controller uses the normal clear-to sequence meaning that phase 1 can clear to phase 3, phase 2 can clear to phases 1 and 3, phase 3 can clear to phases 2 and 1, phase 5 can clear to phases 7 and 6, phase 6 can clear to phase 5, and phase 7 can clear to phases 6 and 5.

If ( 1) phase 2-7 is the current phase combination, phase 2 is the current phase for the ring, and Option 5 is "YES" or (2) phase 2-7 is the current phase combination, phase 7 is the current phase for the ring, and Option 6 is "YES", then the controller uses the reverse clear-to sequence meaning that phase 1 can clear to phase 3, phase 2 can clear to phases 3 and 1. phase 3 can clear to phases 1 and 2, phase 5 can clear to phases 6 and 7, phase 6 can clear to phase 5, and phase 7 can clear to phases 5 and 6.

If call is true for a phase to which the current phase for theringcanclear, the new phase combination is allowed, and

the current phase combination is allowed to clear directly to the new phase combination, then the controller sets the next phase for the ring to the phase and the controller skips the the next ring.

If there is no demand for any phase to which the controller can clear and system demand on red is bUe then ( 1) if the controller is in phase 2-7, phase 3-7 after phase 2-7, phase 1-7, phase 2-5 after phase 2-7, or phase 2-6 then if the current phase for the ring is not phase 1 then call is set true for phase 1 and if the current phase for the ring is not phase 6 then call is set true for phase 6, (2) if the controller is in phase 3-5, phase3-7 after phase 3-5, or phase 2-5 after phase 3-5 then if the current phase for the ring is not phase 2 then call is set true for phase 2 and if the current phase for the ring is not phase 7 then call is set true for phase 7, (3) if the controller is in phase 1-6, 3-6, or 1-5 then if the current phase for the ring is not phase 3 then call is set true for phase 3 and if the current phase for the ring is not phase 5 then call is set true for phase 5, and (4) the controller skips the the next ring. This action may cause call to be set true for a phase in the other ring to eventually move the controller in the preferen­tial sequence order to a phase combination which will service the demand.

Stage 5 for "Figure 4", "Figure 6", and "Figure 7" is processed only if select is true for the current phase for one of the rings or for both rings. If the current phase for any ring is in the yellow change or red clearance interval then the controller skips to Stage 6. If select is true for the current phase of only one ring then the following operations are performed. Ifhold is true for the current phase in the ring that is in select then the controller skips to Stage 6. If the controller is in a clearance phase then (a) the next phase number for the ring that is in select is set to the destination phase number for the ring that is in select and (b) the controller skips to Stage 6.

If (a) call is true for a phase to which the current phase combination can clear, and the phase is in the same ring that is in select and (b) the current phase in the ring that is not in select is equal to the phase to which the current phase combination can clear, and the phase is in the ring that is not in select then (a) the next phase number for the ring that is in select is set to the phase to which the current phase combi­nation can clear, and (b) the controller skips to Stage 6.

If (a) there is no demand for any phase to which the controller can clear, and (b) system demand on red is true then (a) ifthecurrentphasein ring 1 is not equal to the phase in ring 1 for the preferential sequence then call is set true for the phase in ring 1 for the preferential sequence, (b) if the current phase in ring 2 is not equal to the phase in ring 2 for the preferential sequence then call is set true for the phase in ring 2 for the preferential sequence, and (c) the controller skips to Stage 6.

If (a) there is no demand for any phase to which the controller can clear, (b) system demand on red is false, and

(c) rest is ttue for the current phase combination then the controller skips to Stage 6.

If select is true for the cmrent phase of both rings then the following operations are performed. If hold is true for the cmrent phase in either ring then the controller skips to Stage 6. If the controller is in a clearance phase then (a) the next phase number for each ring is set to the destination phase number for the ring and (b) the controller skips to Stage 6.

If (a) the phase in ring 1 to which the current phase combination can clear is not equal to the current phase in ring 1, (b) the phase in ring 2 to which the cmrent phase combi­nation can clear is not equal to the current phase in ring 2, (c) call is true for the phase in ring 1 to which the cmrent phase combination can clear, and (d) call is true for the phase in ring2 to which thecmrentphasecombinationcanclear, then (a) if there is no clearance phase defmed, the next phase number for each ring is set to the phase to which the cmrent phase combination can clear, or if there is a clearance phase defined then the next phase number for each ring is set to the clearance phase and the destination phase is set to the phase to which thecmrent phase combination can clear, and (b) the controller skips to Stage 6.

If (a) the phase in ring 1 to which the current phase combination can clear, is not equal to the current phase in ring 1 and (b) call is true for the phase in ring 1 to which the current phase combination can clear, then (a) the next phase number for ring 1 is set to the phase to which the cmrent phase combination can clear, and (b) the controller skips to Stage6.

If (a) the phase in ring 2 to which the current phase combination can clear, is not equal to the current phase in ring 2 and (b) call is true for the phase in ring 2 to which the current phase combination can clear, then (a) the next phase number for ring 2 is set to the phase to which the current phase combination can clear, and (b) the controller skips to Stage6.

If (a) there is no demand for any phase to which the controller can clear, and (2) system demand on red is true then (a) if the current phase in ring 1 is not equal to the phase in ring 1 for the preferential sequence then call is set true for the phase in ring 1 for the preferential sequence, (b) if the current phase in ring 2 is not equal to the phase in ring 2 for the preferential sequence then call is set true for the phase in ring 2 for the preferential sequence, and (c) the controller skips to Stage 6. If (a) there is no demand for any phase to which the controller can clear, (b) system demand on red is false, and (c) rest is true for the current phase combination then the controller skips to Stage 6.

During Stage 6 for the controller, simgap is checked as required and the appropriate action taken. For "Figure 3 ", if (a) the "Figure 3" phase 3-5 clearance green timer setting (special timer intervall2) is equal to99.0, (b) StatePC35 is true, (c) select is true for phase 3, and (d) select is true for phase 5, then (a) hold is set false for phase 3, (b) hold is set false for phase 5,(c) StatePC35 is set false, (d) simgap is set

true, and (e) the controller goes back to the start of Stage 4 (see Ref 14 "Figure 3" note 3.e phase sequence).

For "Figure 6", if (a) the "Figure 6" option A (Option 7) is "NO", (b) StatePC36 is true, (c) select is true forphase3, and (d) select is ttue for phase 6, then (a) hold is set false for phase 3, (b) hold is set false for phase 6, (c) State PC36 is set false, (d) simgap is set true, and (e) the controller goes back to the start of Stage 4 (see Ref 14 "Figure 6" note 3 phase sequence options- option A= OFF). For "Figure 7", if (a) the "Figure 7" option A (Option 10) is "NO", (b) State PC15 is true, (c) select is true for phase 1, and (d) select is true for phase 5, then (a) hold is set false for phase 1, (b) hold is set false for phase 5, (c) State PC15 is set false, (d) simgap is set true, and (e) the controller goes back to the start of Stage 4 (see Ref 14 "Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options -option A= OFF).

During Stage 7, the current phase for each ring is processed for the green interval and the controller enters the yellow change interval if necessary. If the next phase num­ber is equal to 0 (the current phase for the ring has not gaped out, maxed out, or timed out or the current phase for the ring has gaped out, maxed out, or timed out but the next phase has not been chosen therefore stay in the green interval) then the controller skips to the next ring. If the next phase number is not equal to 0 (the current phase in the ring has gaped out, maxed out, or timed out and the next phase has been chosen therefore enter the yellow change interval) then next is set true for the next phase number, the max out timer for the cmrentphasefortheringissettoanextremelylargenumber, select is set false for the current phase, if the gap out timer for the current phase for the ring is greater than 0.0 (max out has occurred) then call is set true for the current phase, the gap out timer for the current phase for the ring is set to the yellow change interval for the current phase for the ring, the cam stack is positioned to the yellow change interval for the cmrent phase, new cam stack is set true, and the interval for the current phase is set to yellow change.

For "Figure 3", (a) if the controller is in phase 2-7 or 3-7 and the next phase is 1-7 then the "Figure 3" phase 1-7 advance green timer (special timer interval 2) is started by initializing the "Figure 3" phase 1-7 advance green timer value to the "Figure 3" phase 1-7 advance green timer setting, hold is set true for phase 1, and hold is set true for phase 7 (see Ref 14 "Figure 3" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers- interval2) and (b) if the controller is in phase 2-7 or 2-5 and the next phase is 2-6 then the "Figure 3" phase 2-6 advance green timer (special timer interval3) is started by initializing the "Figure 3" phase 2-6 advance green timer value to the "Figure 3" phase 2-6 advance green timer setting, hold is set true for phase 2, and hold is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 "Figure 3" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers - interval 3).

For "Figure 4", (a) if the controlleris in phase 3-7, the next phase is phase 1-7, call is true for phases 2, 3, 5, and 6 then the "Figure 4" phase 1-7 advance green timer (special

timer interval 2) is started by initializing the "Figure 4" phase 1-7 advance green timer to its setting, hold is set true for phase 1, and hold is set true for phase 7 (see Ref 14 "Figure 4" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers­interval2) and (b) if the controller is in phase 2-5. the next phase is phase 2-6, call is true for phases 1, 3, 5, and 7, then the "Figure 4" phase 2-6 advance green timer is started by initializing it to its setting, hold is set true for phase 2, and hold is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 "Figure 4" diamond operation note 2 intervals and timers - interval 3).

For ''Figure6", (a) if State PC16 is true then the "Figure 6" phase 1-6 advance green maximum timer (special timer interval?) is cancelled by setting it to 0.0 and State PC16 is set false (see Ref 14 "Figure 6" note 3 phase sequence options - option A= OFF), (b) if the controller is in phase 3-6, the next phase is phase 1-6, and the "Figure 6" option A (Option 7) is "NO", then the ''Figure 6" phase 1-6 advance green minimum timer (special timer interval6) is started by initializing it, the "Figure 6" phase 1-6 advance green maximum timer (special timer interval 7) is started by initializing it, hold is set true for phase 1, and hold is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 ''Figure 6" note 3 phase sequence options- option A=OFF),and (c) if the controller is in phase 3-7, the next phase is phase 1-7, and the "Figure 6" option C (Option 9) is "YES", then the "Figure 6" phase 1-7 advance green timer (special timer interval2) is started by initializing it, hold is set true for phase 1, and hold is set true for phase 7 (see Ref 14 "Figure 6" note 3 phase sequence options­option C = ON).

For"Figure 7", (a) ifStatePC16is true then the''Figure 7" phase 1-6 advance green maximum timer (special timer interval10) is cancelled by setting it to 0.0 and State PC16 is set false (see Ref 14 ''Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options- option A= OFF), (b) if the controller is in phase 1-5, the next phase is phase 1-6, and the "Figure 7" option A (Option 1 0) is "NO", then the "Figure 7" phase 1-6 advance green minimum timer (special timer interval9) is initialized, the "Figure 7" phase 1-6 advance green maximum timer (special timer interval 10) is initialized , hold is set true for phase 1, and hold is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 ''Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options- option A= OFF), and (c) if the controller is in phase 2-5, the next phase is 2-6, and the "Figure 7" option C (Option 9) is "YES", then the "Figure 7" phase 2-6 advance green timer (special timer interval 3) is initialized, hold is set true for phase 2, and hold is set true for phase 6 (see Ref 14 "Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options - option C = ON).

During Stage 8, the current phase for each ring is processed for the yellow change interval and the controller enters the red clearance interval if necessary. If the gap out timer for the current phase is greater than 0.0, the controller skips to the next ring. If the gap out timer for the current phase is less than or equal to 0.0, the gap out timer for the current phase is set to the red clearance change interval for the current phase, the cam stack is positioned to the red

clearance interval for the current phase, new cam stack is set true, and the interval for the current phase is set to red clearance.

During Stage 9, the current phase for each ring is processed for the red clearance interval and the controller enters the green interval for the next phase if necessary. If the gap out timer for the current phase for the ring is greater than 0.0 then the controller skips to the next ring. If the gap out timer for the current phase is less than or equal to 0.0 then the current phase for the ring is set to the next phase, the time into the current phase for the ring is set to 0.0, the gap out timer for the current phase is set to the minimum interval for the current phase for the ring, the cam stack is positioned to the green interval for the current phase for the ring, demand on red is set false for the current phase for the ring, call is set false for the current phase for the ring, next is set false for the current phase , the next phase number is set to 0 for the current phase for the ring, new cam stack is set true, new phase is set true, and the interval for the current phase is set to green.

(a) if the controller is in phase 2-5. call is true for phase 3, call is true for phase 6, and the "Figure 4" phase 2 transfer gap timer value (special timer interval 4) is equal to 0.0 then the "Figure 4" phase 2 transfer gap timeris started by initializing it (see Ref 14 "Figure 4" note 2 detector operation - D2 & D2A) and (b) if the controller is in phase 3-7, call is true for phase 1, call is true for phase 5, and the "Figure 4" phase 7 transfer gap timer value (special timer intervalS) is equal to 0.0 then the ''Figure 4" phase 7 transfer gap timer is initial­ized (see Ref 14 ''Figure4" note 2 detector operation- D7 & D7A).

During Stage 11, a new cam stack is made if necessary. If new cam stack is true then the old cam stack pointer is set to the new cam stack pointer, a new cam stack is made in the new cam stack pointer position by merging the cam stack entries for the current interval for the current phase in ring 1 and the cam stack entries for the current interval for the current phase in ring 2, and the overlap cam stack entries are merged if necessary.

During Stage 12, changes that have to be made upon entry into the green interval for a new phase are processed. If new phase is true for ring 1 or ring 2 then the following operations are performed.

and State PC 1S is set true (see Ref 14 "Figure 7" note 3 phase sequence options - option A = OFF). If the controller is in phase 2-S, if the "Figure 7" option C (Option 12) is "ON", call is true for phase 6, and call is false for phase 1 then the "Figure 7" phase 2 transfer gap timer (special timer interval 4) is initialized and if the controller is not in phase 2-S then the "Figure 7" phase 2 transfer gap timer (special timer interval4) is cancelled by setting it to 0.0 and the detector D2 is connected to phase 2 as the only detector (see Ref 14 "Figure 7" note 4 alternate and overlap detectors - D2 & D2A).

the detector is connected to phase 1 while "ph6" means that the detector is connected to phase 6.

During Stage 13, all detectors are set false. To make a new cam stack, the controller merges the cam stack position of the current interval for the current phase in ring 1 with the cam stack position of the current interval for the current phase in ring 2 into the new can stack position. If Overlap A is active then the controller merges the cam stack position of the current interval for Overlap A with the new cam stack position into the new cam stack position. If Overlap B is active then the controller merges the cam stack position of the current interval for Overlap B with the new cam stack position into the new cam stack position. To merge a cam stack, the controller takes the signal indication three-charac­ter code (a number between 1 and 26) for each lane for the current interval for the frrst phase, takes the signal indication three-character code for each lane for the current interval for the second phase, and performs a table look-up to arrive at the merged signal indication three-character code. The table was developed by (a) breaking each signal indication three­character code into the signal indication (green, yellow, red, and protected green) for a left tum, a straight movement, and a right tum, (b) merging the signal indications for each turn type independently by applying the precedence order of (1) protected green, (2) green, (3) yellow, and (4) red, and (c) assigning the resultant merged signal indication to the proper signal indication three-character code.

To determine if an overlap is active, the controller uses the following procedures. The overlap is green when (I) any phase on the definition list is green or (2) any phase on the definition list is in yellow change and any phase on the definition list is the next phase. The overlap is yellow change when any phase on the definition list is yellow change and no phase on the definition list is green. The overlap is inactive (red) when the overlap is not green and overlap is not yellow change.

Introduction

This pamphlet has been prepared as a supplement to the user's Guide and provides important

instructions for installation and use of the TEXAS Model for Intersection Traffic. The document is

composed of five sections which address 1) installation of the system on micro-computers equipped with

fixed disks, 2) the use of example data files provided in the installation package, 3) coding and running of

example case study problems, and 4) documentation for the animated screen graphics system, and 5)

FORTRAN run-time errors.

Sections 1 through 3 essentially constitute a primer for TEXAS Model users. All users must work

carefully through Section 1 in order to successfully install the package on fixed-disk-equipped micro­

computers. Working through at least one of the example data sets of Section 2 and at least one of the

example coding problems of Section 3 is strongly advised.

TEXAS Model Fixed Disk Installation Instructions

Note: Successful utilization of the TEXAS Model Version 3.0 will require the following hardware:

1. IBM-PC or compatible computer. equipped with fixed disk, and running under DOS 3.1 or greater, and 640 K of RAM.

2. Math co-processor.

3. Graphics adaptor for your monitor, either IBM VGA, color, or enhanced color graphics adaptor or compatible.

These instructions are written assuming that your computer has been switched "on" and you have

responded to the DOS prompts for time and date. Now you must follow the step-by-step instructions

below:

1. Insert in drive A: the diskette labeled "TEXAS_MDL_1".

2. Type A:INSTALL.

NOTE: The installation program will begin installing on drive C:, which is normally your fixed disk. If

you have more than one fixed disk and wish to install TEXAS on your second fixed disk, which is known to

DOS as drive D:, type A:INSTALLD instead of A:INSTALL. Batch file will always go in C:\BATCH.

3. Obey the screen prompts and insert diskettes 2 through 6 and EXAMPLES when directed. Then

remove the EXAMPLES disk from drive A.

4. At the end of the automatic installation procedure, you will see a screen prompt reminding you that

certain modifications or additions must be made to your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT files. You

can make those modifications in the following manner:

Page 186: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-5

a. Your CONFIG.SYS file must contain statements specifying that the number of buffers and files

which can be concurrently used is 20. If you have a CONFIG.SYS file, it will be located in your root

directory. To examine and edit it as necessary follow these instructions:

a.1. Type the command CDC:\ which changes the current directory to the root directory, then

type TYPE CONFIG.SYS which will cause the CONFIG.SYS file to be displayed on the screen

if it exists.

a.2. If the CONFIG.SYS file is displayed skip to item a.S.

a.3. If no CONFIG.SYS file is displayed and text appears telling you that the file could not be

found, execute a.1 again to be sure it does not exist.

a.4. If you have confirmed that no CONFIG.SYS file exists, you must create one. You can do this

with any text editor, including the DOS line editor called Edlin. To accomplish the task with Edlin,

type EDLIN CONFIG.SYS which loads Edlin into memory and tells it to create a new file called

CONFIG.SYS. Then type I for insert, then at the prompt, type BUFFERS:20 followed by a

carriage return then type FILES:20 followed by a carriage return, followed by holding down the

Ctrl key and pressing the Break key which ends the insert mode. Then type E which ends your

Edlin session and saves the new file. Skip to item b.

a.S. If your CONFIG.SYS file does appear on the screen, examine it to see if it contains the

following two lines:

BUFFERS= 20

FILES= 20

If it contains both BUFFER and FILE statements, and the numbers to the right of the equal sign

are 20, your file is okay, no modHication is necessary. SKIP TO ITEM b.

a.6. If your CONFIG.SYS file does appear but does not contain either of the two lines shown in

item a.S or if the either of the numbers is less than 20, you must edit the file. You can do this with

any text editor, or you can use the DOS line editor called Edlin. To edit your file using Edlin, type

EDLIN CONFIG.SYS which will load Edlin and your file into memory. Then type L which will

cause your file to be displayed on the screen with line numbers. Note the line number of the

line(s) to be edited and type the number of the first line you wish to edit. The line whose number

Page 187: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-6

you typed will be displayed with the line number and another copy of the line number and a

colon. It will appear like this if line 2 contained the BUFFERS statement and you typed 2

2:BUFFERS=6

2:

Now type the correct statement after the colon like this:

2:BUFFERS=6

2:BUFFERS:20

End your instruction with a carriage return and proceed to modify the other line(s) as necessary.

Refer to Item a.4 if you have forgotten what the two lines should specify.

If you need to add a line to your CONFIG.SYS file, instead of typing the line number of the line to

be edited, type #I for" Insert after last line", followed by a carriage return and enter the required

line(s}. To leave the insert mode, hold down the Ctrl key and while holding it down, press the

Break key.

When you have finished inserting or editing, type E which will exit Edlin and save your file.

b. Now you must enter or modify your PATH command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. You can do

this with any chosen editor, or use the DOS resident line editor called Edlin. If you wish to use Edlin, type

EDLIN AUTOEXEC.BAT which loads Edlin and your AUTOEXEC.BAT file into memory. Then type L

which will cause your AUTOEXEC.BATfile to be displayed on the screen. Examine the file and search for

a line that begins with the characters PATH. If it is present, do as you did in item a. above; type the line

number of the line containing the PATH specification. On the second line of the display, after the colon,

type all characters exactly as they appear on the top line followed by ;C:\BATCH followed by a carriage

return, followed byE which ends the Edlin session and saves your AUTOEXEC.BAT file. If you have no

existing path command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, and are still using Edlin, type #I for "Insert after last

line". Then type PATH C:\BATCH;C:\ if DOS is located jn your root directory. If DOS is n.211ocated in

your root directory but it is in a subdirectory, type PATH C:\BATCH;C:\ wjth the name of the

subdirectory following the last backslash and no spaces. Then type E to end your Edlin session and save

your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.

NOTE: Some application programs like IBM's Fixed Disk Organizer do not allow

anything in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file except the commands that it uses and will

replace your PATH command the next time you boot your system. If this happens to

you, there are several options which can solve the problem. First, you can enter the

PATH command directly from DOS just before you enter the TEXAS modeling

system. The PATH specification will be in effect until you remove power or reboot the

system. The second option could consist of putting your PATH specification into a

Page 188: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

batch file that you name and executing that batch file before entering the TEXAS

Modeling system. This technique offers the advantage of requiring that you

remember only a simple batch file name rather than the entire PATH command.

C-7

5. This completes installation of the TEXAS modeling system. You must now re-boot your system to

cause your specifications for CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT to become effective. This can be

accomplished by holding down the Ctrl and A It keys and pressing the Del key. Once the system is re­

booted you may enter the TEXAS Modeling System by typing GDVDATA to enter the first of the pre­

processors.

USE OF EXAMPLE DATA FILES PROVIDED IN THE TEXAS MODEL

INSTALLATION PACKAGE

Demonstration Graphics Flies

One of the significant capabilities of the TEXAS Modeling System is the ability to view a simulated

intersection operation through animated screen graphics. If this capability is of interest, a quick

demonstration might be very desirable. Three demonstration data files have been provided so that you

can see the animated graphics in action before learning more about the total system.

If you have completed the installation process as described in the installation instructions you are

ready to view the demonstration graphics. This can be accomplished through execution of the following

instructions:

1. First, you must determine the type of graphics adapter and monitor you have available for use

with the demonstration. If you don't already know, you can type VIDEOCHK which is the name

of a program which has been installed with the rest of the system. VIDEOCHK will report the

type(s) of graphics adapter(s) and monitor(s) which are currently installed.

2. Next, insert in drive A: the diskette labeled TEXAS_MDL_DISPLAY. This diskette contains

four files named DISDAT.CG, DISDAT.EG, DISDAT.EGM, and DISDAT.VGA. In each case the

DISDAT portion of the file name identifies the files as animated graphics display files and the

suffixes identify the type of hardware for which the file has been prepared. The file with suffix CG

has been prepared to run on a machine equipped with IBM or compatible color graphics adapter

and monitor, while the EG is for IBM or compatible enhanced graphics adapter and color monitor,

EGM is for enhanced graphics adapter and monochrome monitor and VGA is for VGA monitor and

adapter. The demonstration files can be expected to operate reliably Q.D.Jy_ on one of these

adapter-monitor combinations.

3. Having identified your hardware type in step 1, you are almost ready to view the demonstration.

If you have more than one graphics adapter and or more than one monitor connected to your

system. be sure to execute whatever hardware or software actions are necessary to make the

chosen adapter-monjtor combination become your actjye adapter-monjtor combination. Now type

DISPRO A:DISDAT.CG if you have IBM or compatible color graphics adapter and monitor, or

DISPRO A:DISDAT.EG if you have IBM or compatible enhanced graphics adapter and color

monitor, etc.

C-9

4. The animated graphics screen demonstration will appear on the ·selected monitor and will have

a duration of approximately 2 1/2 minutes. You may view it again by typing DIS PRO and you may

pause and restart the action by pressing any key. You may also press S to pause and restart after

single updates.

Example Data Sets

Example files containing both input and output data have been provided for six typical simulation

problems. Four of the example problems consist of four leg intersections controlled by two-way stop

signs, semi-actuated signals, three-phase pre-time signals, and three-phase pre-time signals with

permissive left-turns. Examples 1 and 2 are the two parts of a before and after study in which an

intersection with the same traffic and geometries, is controlled first by two-way stop signs and then by a

semi-actuated signal. Examples 3 and 4 are likewise the parts of a before and after study in which an

intersection with the same traffic and geometries is first controlled by three-phase pre-time signals with

protected-only left turns and then protected-permissive left turns. Examples 5 and 6 are diamond

interchanges with four phase pretimed signalization. Example 6 includes overlap signal intervals while 5

does not.

Pre-processor input files have been installed on your fixed disk if you have followed the

instructions for fixed disk installation. Output files for the six examples produced by the pre-processors

and the basic model processors themselves have been included on a diskette labeled TEXAS_MDL_E of

the installation package.

New users of the TEXAS Modeling System can familiarize themselves with the operation of the

system without being required to generate any input data by executing the following sequence of

commands:

1. After following the instructions for installing the package, enter the system by typing TEXAS.

The Texas Model banner will appear with a prompt to "Strike a key when ready". Next the menu

screen will appear with the standard DOS prompt at the bottom. The menu screen provides a

description of each of the model processors and helps guide the user through the system. At the

DOS prompt keyin GDVDA T A.

2. The next prompt which you should see on the screen looks like this:

DO YOU WANT TO USE A FILE FROM THE PERMANENT LIBRARY?

Page 191: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-10

You should respond by typing N for no. (Remember that your Caps Lock key should be in the all­

capital-letters mode.)

3. The next prompt you should see will look like this:

DO YOU WANT TO USE AN EXISTING DATA FILE?

You should respond by typing Y for yes.

4. Next the system will prompt you for the name of the existing data file. You should respond by

typing the name of the example data file you wish to use. Since the four example problems only

involve two different sets of traffic and intersection geometries, if you wish to run Example 1 or 2

you should type GD_PRE.S1 however if you wish to run Example 3 or 4 you should type

GD_PRE.S3, or GD_PRE.SS for examples 5 or 6, which are the names of the pre-processor

files for Examples 1 and 2, or 3 and 4, or 5 and 6 respectively.

5. The pre-processor will prompt you for any desired changes to the input file. You should

respond to the prompts by indicating that no changes are desired.

6. Next, run the geometry and driver-vehicle processors by typing GDVPRO which is the name

of the batch file that runs these two programs. This operation will take several minutes, so please

wait patiently.

7. You should now enter the second pre-processor by typing SIMDATA, which is the name of the

simulation pre-processor, at the DOS prompt below the menu screen.

8. After the Texas Model banner, you will then see a prompt that looks like this:

DO YOU WANT TO USE AN EXISTING SIMULATION DATA FILE?

You should respond by typing Y for yes.

9. Next you will see a prompt that says:

Page 192: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-11

KEY IN AN EXISTING DATA FILE NAME:

You should respond by typing the name of the example data file you wish to use. Because all four

examples have different traffic control schemes which are input through the simulation processor,

there are four different files for the four examples. All have the same name but different two­

character suffixes. The names are SIM_PRE.S1, SIM_PRE.S2, SIM_PRE.S3, SIM_PRE.S4,

SIM_PRE.S5, and SIM_PRE.SS. If you are running Example 1 you should type SIM_PRE.S1

as the name of the simulation data file, etc.

10. Review the data file and respond to the prompts by indicating that no changes are desired.

11. When complete, you should run the simulation processor by typing SIMPRO which is the

name of the batch file that controls this operation. After several seconds you will see numbers on

the screen which report the status of the simulation. The left column of numbers is the elapsed

time into the simulation, while the right column represents the number of vehicles currently being

monitored by the simulation processor.

12. You may now examine the output generated by your run by typing TYPE SIMPLST which

will display the output on the screen or you can type PRINT SIMPLST which will send the

output to your printer.

13. If you have chosen to run Example 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6 your work has produced a file which can be

viewed using the animated graphics processor. If you wish to view the animated graphics

produced by these examples, you should do the following:

a. Type DISPRE which is the name of the pre-processor that prepares the graphics data for

display. This pre-processor will take several minutes to complete its task, so be patient. While you

are waiting, you may wish to browse through the documentation for the animated graphics system

included as Section 4 in this package.

b. When complete, you may view the graphics by typing DISPRO which is the name of the

graphics processor.

A plan view of the intersection will appear on your graphics screen followed by the simulated traffic

generated by your simulation run.

C-12

You may also wish to compare your output files to those provided with the distribution package.

Example output files for all processors for the four examples have been provided on a diskette labeled

TEXAS_MDL_EXAMPLES. You can examine these files on your monitor or print them using the usual

DOS TYPE OR PRINT commands. The files and their descriptions are provided as follows:

STEP-BY STEP INSTRUCTIONS

FOR EXAMPLE PROBLEMS

If you have completed your installation process, and have finished experimenting with the

example input files, you should be ready to gain experience in inputting data to the pre-processors. Step­

by-step coding instructions have been provided on the following pages for the first two example problems

described in the previous section. Once again Example 2 is the second part of a before and after study

and only traffic control features change from Example 1 to 2. Therefore, the coding instructions assume

that you will work Example 1 immediately before Example 2. Included after the coding instructions are

sketches of geometry, signal timing schemes, and traffic demands for Examples 5 and 6.

Example Problem Number 1

I. Background

Work to be done through this example offers the first opportunity for new users to communicate

with the TEXAS Model through the keyboard. This example and subsequent examples will be structured

around a case study of a 4-leg intersection ( 4 x 4) located in an urban area. In addition to learning to

interact with the model through the keyboard and the CRT screen, the user will have an opportunity to

utilize the output from the TEXAS Model as the basis for analyzing traffic behavior and intersection

performance under specified conditions.

II. Case Study Scenario I

The urban 4-leg intersection shown in Fig. C-1 is currently operating under 2-way stop control.

Traffic demands upon the intersection have grown steadily, and signalization is now being considered.

The indicated traffic values were observed during a recent AM peak traffic period. This scenario will serve

as a base condition in the case study.

Ill. Instructions

Use the preprocessors GDVDATA and SIMDATA to develop and enter all required input

infonnation for the intersection situation that is described in Example I. Initiate a run of the TEXAS Model

utilizing this input data.

C-19

Example Problem Number 2

I. Background

This example is devoted to the second scenario in the case study of traffic operations at the urban

intersection that was described in Example 1. The 2-way stop-sign control will be replaced with 2-phase,

semi-actuated signal control. A somewhat more detailed description of the signalized intersection

situation will be required in order to communicate with the TEXAS Model for the latter control condition.

Users will utilize the SIMDATA preprocessor to enter all necessary data interactively in response to

prompts and instructions. It would only be necessary to enter the GDVDATA pre-processor if you have

processed a data file other than that for Example 1 prior to running Example 2 because SIMDATA will

utilize the most recently used GDVDATA file.

II. Case Study Example 2

The 4-leg urban intersection, which was the subject of the case study in Example 1 while

operating under 2-way stop-sign control, is now being considered for future operation under 2-phase,

semi-actuated signal control in Example 2. The proposed detector configuration and signal timing for

Example 2 are shown in Fig. C-2. Intersection geometry and traffic are the same as for Example 1. By

comparing the TEXAS Model outputs from the two scenarios, the effects of this change can be evaluated

directly in a before-and-after type comparison.

Ill. Instructions

Use the preprocessors GDVDATA and SIMDATA to develop and enter all required TEXAS Model

input for the intersection situation that is described above as Example 2. Fig. C-2 serves as a basic

sketch of the intersection situation and also contains the proposed signal timing data. Make notes or

scratch calculations on this sheet as desired to help you respond appropriately to the prompts and

instructions that appear on the screen. Initiate a run of the TEXAS Model for Example 2.

Specific instructions for Driver-Vehicle and Geometry processors: (GDVDATA)

Use the same file which was built for Example I without changes.

You will, therefore, use an existing file.

Specific instructions for the Simulation processor: (SIMDATA)

1 . Use 2-phase, semi-actuated signal control.

Page 201: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-20

2. Use the NEMA numbering scheme for traffic phases (see screen prompts or Fig. A-10, p.42,

in the "Guide to Data Entry").

USER INSTRUCTIONS FOR TEXAS MODEL ANIMA.riON PROCESSOR

The animation processor may be used to produce an animated graphical view of the simulated

traffic with a plan view of the intersection shown to scale and traffic operations depicted in real time. A

decision to utilize the animation must be made before running the simulation by responding affirmatively

to the prompt "Create pollution/display tape?" within the pre-processor "SIMDATA". An affirmative

response to this prompt will cause the simulation processor to generate a file consisting of position,

velocity, and acceleration data for all simulated vehicles for every simulation time increment. The following

instructions are provided assuming -that the user has created the appropriate file during the simulation and

now wishes to produce an animated graphical view of the simulated intersection traffic operations.

DISPRE and the Pre-Processor

As with all basic processors within the TEXAS Model, the Animation Processor requires the use of

a pre-processor prior to its use. This pre-processor is most easily accessed through a batch file called

DISPRE.BAT. Execution of this file can be accomplished by typing DISPRE which simply tells DOS to

find and execute a batch file called DISPRE. There are two optional parameters which may be specified for

operation of DIS PRE.

1. The first optional parameter is the name of the input file which was generated by the simulation

processor. (Input file name can be specified by PVA+NAME at any position on the input line).

The default name assigned by the simulation processor to this file is POSDAT, and DISPRE will

always look for a file called POSDAT unless told otherwise through specification of this parameter.

In other words, specification of this parameter is not necessary unless the user wishes to have

several raw pollution/display files simultaneously available. To accomplish this, the user would

rename the file created by the simulation processor called POSDAT after each simulation

processor run because each run of the simulation processor will destroy the previous

pollution/display file if it is named POSDAT. (For example, if two raw files were to be retained, the

first POSDAT produced by the simulation processor could be renamed POSDAT1, and the

second could be renamed POSDAT2, or any other name acceptable to DOS.) If specified, the

parameter must consist of the complete name including any name extension, for the file to be

used. ~ the first optional parameter can be specified while omitting the second (leaving the

second blank).

Page 212: Texas Model Version 3.0 (Diamond Interchanges)ii There was no invention or discovery conceived or first ... choices for diamonds and single intersections also include no control, yield,

C-31

2. The second optional parameter is the name of the output file created by the pre-processor.

(Input file name can be specified by DIS+NAME at any position on the input line). If omitted,

DISPRE will use the default file name DISDAT each time it runs. This effectively means that each

DISPRE run destroys any previous animation files if their names have not been changed.

Specification of this parameter is not necessary unless the user wishes to have several animation

files simultaneously available for display. However, once specified, a new output file name

remains in effect until changed by the user or the system is re-booted. ~the second optional

parameter cannot be specified unless the first is also used.

An example of the use of both optional parameters might look like the following, if the name of the input

file was RUN99.DAT and the name of the output file was RUN99.CAT:

You would type DISPRE RUN99.DAT RUN99.CAT followed by a carriage return.

Users may optionally tailor their graphics by modifying a file called DISPAR which is shipped with

the modeling system and installed in the TEXAS subdirectory. Modification of this file which consists of

two lines, must be accomplished using a text editor such as the DOS resident Edlin. Specific field

specifications for the two lines are as follows: (This file can be specified as third command line parameter

PAR+NAME).

**Special Note: The duration of the display file normally generated by SIMPRO is 5 minutes. That is,~ the first five minutes of the simulation are normally provided for use by the animation processor. If the user wishes to view more than 5 minutes of the simulation through the animation processor he can edit the file named SIM which is the output file created by a conversion program called SIMCONV which is .DQ1 normally accessed by users. Therefore, in order to create a display file of more than five minutes duration, the user should do the following:

1. After finishing Input through SIMDATA and exiting that program, at the DOS prompt type SIMCONV which will "manually" execute the conversion program. 2. SIMCONV will identify the name of the output file at completion (it is currently called SIM). You must edit this output file using a text editor. Load your text editor and the output file (SIM) into memory and modify the second line of the file by entering the desired duration of the animation in columns 67 through 70 of the second line with your specification in units of minutes with a period.

SECOND LINE Enter the numbers corresponding to the vehicle classes for any vehicle classes which are to be given special graphical representation in the animation. Twelve ( 12) fields of five columns each are available for the 12 vehicle classes used in the simulation. See Table A-2 page 17 of the Users Guide for a description of the 12 vehicle classes. For example, if you wanted vehicle classes 3, 7 and 11 to be given special distinctive representation on the graphics screen you would enter 3 7 11 in columns 5, 10, and 14-15 respectively as your second line. The default for this specification is none, that is, no vehicle classes will be given special graphical representation.

DISPRO and the Animation Processor

Once the pre-processor has generated the data file needed by the basic animation processor. the

graphics may be viewed. Note: Users with more than one display must switch to the

display that will be used for the animation before running the animation processor.

Execution of the animation processor can be accomplished by typing the name of the batch file DISPRO

which manipulates the animated graphics processor. While viewing the animation, users will see "

READING DATA" occasionally displayed in the lower right corner of the screen. While "READING DATA"

is displayed the machine is reading additional data from the input data file and loading it into memory.

While the display is active, pressing any key will cause the animation to pause, until any key is pressed a

second time. DISPRO user file specified on command line (DIS+NAME) default is DISDAT.
