Özet

A fixed-time traffic control system is widely used to manage the traffic flow at intersections. Cycle length has an important effect on the performance of the fixed-time control system and the Webster model is widely used in the literature to determine the cycle length. However, when the traffic flow ratio (Y) approaches 1, the Webster model loses its effectiveness and cannot determine the cycle length when Y is above 1. In the scope of this study, it is aimed to develop models that can predict cycle length for all traffic conditions in which are Y <= 1 and Y >= 1. Two different heuristic algorithms, atom search optimization (ASO) and grasshopper optimization algorithm (GOA) were used in the development of models and the performances of these algorithms were demonstrated. The efficiency of the developed models has been demonstrated by comparing them with both Webster's model and VISTRO optimization program. Models developed in exponential, power, and quadratic forms have been able to predict cycle lengths with lower delay values by showing better performance than Webster and VISTRO. In addition, statistical results show that the ASO approach is more successful than the GOA approach.
