Enhancing Freeway Traffic Capacity: The Impact of Autonomous Vehicle Platooning Intensity

Enhancing Freeway Traffic Capacity: The Impact of Autonomous Vehicle Platooning Intensity

This paper proposes a theoretical model to discuss the capacity of heterogeneous saturated flow. A crucial indicator, platooning intensity, which represents the willingness of connected and autonomous vehicles to form platoons, is taken into consideration. The relationship between platooning intensi...
