Characteristics of traffic flow management in multimodal transport hub (by the example of the seaport)
In order to ensure efficient functioning of multimodal transport hub it is necessary to provide proper traffic management both inside and outside of it. This article presents assessment of freight traffic flows management impact on the state of traffic flows in adjoining street-road network. This is one of actual tasks aiming to ensure traffic safety in proximity to large terminal complexes. The following results were obtained in the course of work:
– limiting values of street-road network stable functioning parameters for infinite horizon were defined;
– periods of hub steady functioning in condition of negative stability were defined with the use of traffic micro simulation programs
– a non-conventional approach in solving the problems of assessment of functioning of terminal complexes and adjoining streetroad networks.
– conditions of implementation of adaptive simulation model enabling execution of transport flows within the terminal were defined.
