Abstract
Multi-class emission models aim at capturing the heterogeneous nature of
traffic flows. These models are helpful for improving the efficiency of the
reduction of emissions. We develop a macroscopic emission model that takes into
account the multi-class nature of traffic. This results in a integrated
macroscopic multi-class traffic flow and emission model called the multi-class
VT-Macro model. Model predictive control is adopted to reduce the total time
spent and the total emissions. End point penalties are included in the
objective function, taking into account the different distances to the
destination of different vehicles. A case study based on a benchmark network is
implemented. The simulation results show that better performance is obtained by
using the multi-class VT-macro model and end point penalties.
