Mobility Data Modeling and Simulation
-
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.
📝📈 -
Microscopic Traffic simulation for cyclists.
Mentoring: Lindner.In this project, an existing bicycle simulation model should be extended and validated by real-world data.

Traffic Control and Management
-
Comparison and evaluation of fixed-time and traffic-dependent control on the example of an T-junction from the "Examples from the German guidelines to signal control" with PTV Vissim.
Mentoring: Stüger.Based on relevant reference papers and standards, the two control procedures mentioned in the thesis title are to be implemented at a T-junction using PTV Vissim. Afterwards, the two methods shall be compared using defined performance indicators.
