- 摘要:AbstractThis study involved investigating the sensitivity of MOEs to different simulation initialization times (7, 10, and 13minutes); observing the trend of variation of MOEs with increased simulation runs; and identifying the major contributors of variation in MOEs. The results showed that (i) the MOEs of a simulated saturated intersection are indeed sensitive to initialization times; (ii) the variation within MOEs reached a steady state with increased number of simulation runs, and the required number of simulation runs to attain such a state changed with respect to the level of congestion; (iii) lane changing and gap acceptance parameters play a major role as a source of variation of MOEs (delay/vehicle). © 2011 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
