A chapter in Traffic and Granular Flow ’99, 2000, pp 425-430 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract A simulation to model traffic on a multilane freeway is introduced starting from microscopic driving rules. The model takes each individual car into account with its individual features and actual situations so that a distribution of parameters as well as different behavior can easily be analyzed. Therefore, a detailed study of certain situations, driving tactics, vehicle properties, and their influence on the global traffic flow can be performed. The model and first results are discussed, namely, the influence of the driver behavior on the fundamental diagram.
