Özet
The effectiveness of fixed-time management systems dramatically decreases in case of fluctuating traffic demands in signalized intersection approaches. The result is the utter waste of time in traffic to be followed by material, psychological, and ecological problems. In recent years, to minimize the negative impacts of these problems, many researchers have focused on Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). As it is known, one of the applications of ITS is called vehicle-actuated (traffic-actuated) management systems. Because the success of these types of applications is directly related to the created control logic, the selection of the most proper control parameters for the created control logic is an important issue. This study aims to create an effective control logic and flow chart for the vehicle-actuated management system. At the end of the analyses, it is seen that the created vehicle-actuated management system can adapt to fluctuations in traffic demands in signalized intersection approaches. Average vehicle delays, fuel consumptions, and exhaust emissions can be reduced significantly by the created system. In case of fluctuations in traffic demands in intersection approaches, it is concluded that the performance of the intersection may increase enormously because of the created vehicle-actuated management system.
