Abstract

In this paper, we present a new dual-mode transportation system called MetroCar System (MCS) that produces solutions to transportation problems, especially in megacities. The proposed system combines some advantages of both modern and conventional transportation systems in order to establish a more effective, robust and safe transportation system. MCS is developed as a microscopic traffic simulation model by using a multi-agent approach. The model is prepared and simulated using NetLogo, which is a multi-agent programmable modeling environment. All processes and procedures of the MCS have been defined in detail using a multi-agent approach. Three types of agents perform these processes in a distributed manner. Some processes such as entrance, tracking, merging, direction control and exit have been tested. The simulation results show that the proposed model meets expectations and that traffic flows can be controlled without collision. Thus, a suitable system is emerged, which is more practical than conventional transportation systems and more feasible than the other advanced transportation systems.

使用微观模型和多智能体方法设计新型运输系统

摘要

在本文中，我们提出了一种称为MetroCar System（MCS）的新型双模运输系统，该系统可为运输问题（尤其是在特大城市）提供解决方案。所提出的系统结合了现代和常规运输系统的一些优点，以便建立更有效，健壮和安全的运输系统。MCS通过使用多主体方法开发为微观交通模拟模型。该模型是使用NetLogo（一种多Agent可编程建模环境）进行准备和仿真的。MCS的所有过程和程序已使用多代理方法进行了详细定义。三种类型的代理以分布式方式执行这些过程。已经测试了一些过程，例如进入，跟踪，合并，方向控制和退出。仿真结果表明，所提出的模型符合预期，交通流量可以无冲突地得到控制。因此，出现了一种合适的系统，该系统比常规的运输系统更实用，并且比其他先进的运输系统更可行。
