Mobility Data Modeling and Simulation
-
Testbed for traffic simulation.
Mentoring: Lindner.In this thesis, three goals are pursued: (1) to duplicate data and models from an existing (online) platform for (specified) offline studies, (2) to implement procedures to incorporate real-time data into testbed(s), and (3) to investigate data aggregation with respect to traffic control.
🖥️💻 -
Literature review on microscopic bicycle behavior modelling.
Mentoring: Lindner.Cyclist models are based on model parameters that are compiled from reality. However, these are dependent on traffic scenarios and the cyclists themselves. In this work, previously defined parameters (e.g. speed or interaction radius) are to be searched for and compared in the literature.
💭 -
Survey on user acceptance of mobility-impaired people with regard to automated bus transport.
Mentoring: Lindner.People with physical or mental impairments are often disadvantaged while using mobility systems such as public transport. When it comes to automated on-demand bus services, the situation might get worse since no driver is aboard who could assist. This thesis should analyze the user acceptance of mobility impaired user groups of current and future public transport systems.
📝📈 -
Travel Time Estimation for Cyclists.
Mentoring: Dahmen.This thesis provides an overview of methods for estimating bicycle travel times. It analyses factors influencing cyclists’ travel time and compares existing approaches. Additionally, a GPS dataset may be used to identify patterns in cyclists’ travel times, for example in relation to sociodemographic data or trip purpose.

How Many Simulation Runs are Enough? Statistical Analysis of Microscopic Traffic Flow Simulations.
Mentoring: Stüger, Brodersen.In simulation studies, 10-15 repetitions are often considered a sufficiently large sample size. Statistically, however, depending on the desired confidence interval and significance level, an individual statement can be made for each KPI. For this reason, the practice of assuming a general sample size should be questioned, based on different VISSIM networks and traffic signal controls of varying complexity. Prerequisite: Excellent proficiency in German (external partner: gevas Ingenieure).
