This simulation was made for a project at the University of Rostock, with the motivation of simulating an intersection close to our main building to see whether it is possible to improve the intersection.
As that is quite an ambitious project we limited our scope to solely simulating road users, i.e. no bikes, pedestrians or trams. It only simulates cars, buses and trucks.
The simulation is capable of simulating arbitrary intersections, due to limitations with python these can't be all that big though.
Python 3 is required for this project. It requires no installation other than its dependencies, which you can install here:
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
Note that specific versions of arcade and bezier are required since newer versions introduced
differences which were interfering with our implementation.
The python files in the parent directory are all different ways of running the simulation.
python3 gui-sim.py runs a graphical user interface to visually show the simulation
python3 speed-test-sim.py runs the simulation without a graphical interface, to test the maximum speed of the simulation
As you can see the visualizer and the simulator are separated from each other therefore the simulation can work entirely without the visualizer.
- Simulator - Contains the simulator
- Visualisation - Contains the gui which can draw
- Data - The data when running the simulation is saved here
- Evaluation - Data evaluation from the data we have been given
- Intersections - A number of intersections which can be loaded in the simulation
There is no way of loading a different intersection without editing code right now.
To change the intersections go to Simulator/simulator.py, then change real_intersection to
one of the other possible intersections. For example threeway_intersection.
