2004 - Korea - Development of Capacity Estimation Method from Statistical Distribution of Observed Traffic Flow
Description
The objective of this study is to define capacity in a quantitative form and to express capacity as a certain percentage found on a distribution of observed flow rate. Then, it can resolve the two problems of the subjectivity of capacity definition and underestimation or overestimation of capacity that has been calculated by using adjustment factors, the previous method of capacity adjustment under non-ideal conditions.The objective of this study is to define capacity in a quantitative form and to express capacity as a certain percentage found on a distribution of observed flow rate.
