基于混合A*和可变半径RS曲线的自动泊车路径优化方法

路径规划是自动泊车系统的重要组成部分,是确保泊车运动安全、缩短行车距离、提高乘坐舒适性的关键。而当前自动泊车规划系统往往面临行驶空间狭小、障碍物多、路径搜索难度大等技术挑战,同时搜索曲线半径固定容易导致路径接点处曲率不连续,增大了路径跟随控制难度和轮胎磨损程度,这些都提升了泊车路径规划的研究难度。针对以上问题,设计可变半径的Reeds-Shepp曲线,提出基于混合A^*和该曲线的自动泊车路径规划方法,通过调整曲线半径,提升其在复杂场景下路径的搜索能力和灵活性。随后,设计基于分段贝塞尔曲线和梯度下降的路径优化方法,利用其多阶导数连续的优势优化已搜索的路径曲率,并采用梯度下降来保证路径曲率大小和对障碍的规避,解决直线与圆弧相接等位置曲率变化不连续的难题。结合路径搜索与路径优化的泊车规划方法能够切实满足复杂场景下的泊车需要。最后,基于团队自主研发的PanoSim虚拟系统与MATLAB搭建联合仿真环境,针对多种自动泊车工况测试验证提出的方法。研究结果表明：调整Reeds-Shepp曲线的搜索半径进行全局路径搜索,可获得更短和更易跟随的路径,具有良好的灵活性;基于贝塞尔曲线和梯度下降法的路径优化可有效消除曲率突变点、约束路径曲率并保证对障碍的无碰撞要求。

Dynamic demand estimation and microscopic traffic simulation of a university campus transportation network

Abstract

This article documents the authors' experience with the modeling, simulation, and analysis of a university transportation system, using the TRansportation ANalysis and SIMulation System (TRANSIMS). The processes of data preparation and network coding are described, followed by the algorithm developed to estimate the dynamic 24-hour demand, which includes a procedure for estimating the ‘desirability’ of the different parking lots from readily available data. The dynamic demand estimation algorithm is validated by comparing estimated and observed parking lot occupancies, where it is shown that the algorithm is capable of replicating observed results. Finally, an example is included to demonstrate how the developed model can be used in campus transportation planning. Besides serving as a first case study for using TRANSIMS to model a university campus, the study's contributions include the development of a procedure for parking lot desirability ranking and a practical procedure for estimating dynamic demand on university campuses.     

Commuters’ willingness-to-pay for improvement of transfer facilities in and around metro stations – A case study in Kolkata

Although several cities in India are developing the metro system, there are lacunas associated with transfer facilities in and around metro stations. The present work aims to investigate the perception of commuters of Kolkata city, India in terms of their willingness-to-pay (WTP) for improvement of transfer facilities. A stated preference survey instrument was designed to collect choice responses from metro commuters and the database was analysed by developing random parameter logit (RPL) models. The decomposition effects of various socioeconomic and trip characteristics on mean estimates were also investigated in random parameter logit models with heterogeneity. The work indicates significantly high WTP of metro commuters as compared to the average metro fare for improvement of various qualitative attributes of transfer facility such as ‘facility for level change’, ‘visual communication’, ‘pedestrian crossing’, and ‘pedestrian environment’. The WTP values are also found to vary across different groups of commuter formed on the basis of ‘trip purpose’, ‘monthly household income’, ‘station type’ and ‘metro fare’. ‘Work trip’ commuters are found to have higher WTP for improvement of access time, pedestrian environment and use of an escalator over the elevator. On the other hand, ‘high-income group’ commuters have shown higher WTP for improvement of access time, pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian environment. While ‘high fare group’ commuters have higher WTP for access time and pedestrian environment, heterogeneity is also observed in WTP for facility for level change, pedestrian crossing, and pedestrian environment across commuters using different ‘station type’ (underground, at-grade, and elevated). The findings from the study provide a basis for formulating policies for the improvement of transfer facilities in and around metro stations giving due attention to the preference of commuters having different socioeconomic and trip characteristics.     

A study on smart parking guidance algorithm

Parking problem becomes one of major issues in the city transportation management since the spatial resource of a city is limited and the parking cost is expensive. Lots of cars on the road should spend unnecessary time and consume energy during searching for parking due to limited parking space. To cope with these limitations and give more intelligent solutions to drivers in the selection of parking facility, this study proposes a smart parking guidance algorithm. The proposed algorithm supports drivers to find the most appropriate parking facility considering real-time status of parking facilities in a city. To suggest the most suitable parking facility, several factors such as driving distance to the guided parking facility, walking distance from the guided parking facility to destination, expected parking cost, and traffic congestion due to parking guidance, are considered in the proposed algorithm. To evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm, simulation tests have been carried out. The proposed algorithm helps to maximize the utilization of space resources of a city, and reduce unnecessary energy consumption and CO₂ emission of wandering cars since it is designed to control the utilization of parking facility efficiently and reduce traffic congestion due to parking space search.
