动态交通仿真教学融入交通仿真技术课程

Dynamic Traffic Assignment and Simulation in a Traffic Simulation Course

交通仿真技术课程为浙江大学交通工程专业研究生的核心课程,课程以微观交通仿真为主要教学内容,依托微观仿真软件VISSIM开展。微观仿真本身有一定的局限性,越来越难以满足不断增长的工程实践需求,而动态交通分配技术属于宏中观仿真,可以在一定程度上克服微观交通仿真的不足。为了更全方位地培养学生能适应工程实践需求,将动态交通分配及中观交通仿真的知识点融入课程体系中,使课题体系从微观仿真为基础转变为以微观仿真和中观仿真两者为基础。

The course 《Traffic Simulation Techniques》is a major course in the graduate study program specialized in transportation engineering in Zhejiang University.Previously,the course mainly focused on teaching materials based on microscopic traffic simulation,and the tool used for the course was VISSIM software package.Microscopic simulation has its limitations,which makes it unable to accommodate the needs raised in field projects.Dynamic traffic assignment belongs to mesoscopic traffic simulation,which can overcome those limitations of microscopic simulation.The aim of the course reformation is to add teaching materials related to dynamic traffic assignment and simulation,so that the students can have knowledge about both microscopic traffic simulation and mesoscopic traffic simulation.
