Is a detailed manual on how to calculate the traffic on roundabouts Demonstrates the calculation of the capacity, waiting phenomena, the waiting times and queue lengths . Helps to design the correct roundabout for a specific traffic problem. Roundabouts have become one of the most significant traffic control measures because they are generally statistically safer and more efficient than traditional at grade intersections. This book is dedicated to the evaluation of the operating conditions of roundabouts. In five parts, it thoroughly illustrates the calculation of the capacity,including reliability, and waiting phenomena parameters, such as the times spent in the system and queue lengths. Fully worked examples are included throughout the chapters, with detailed explanations.

Abstract
Is a detailed manual on how to calculate the traffic on roundabouts Demonstrates the calculation of the capacity, waiting phenomena, the waiting times and queue lengths . Helps to design the correct roundabout for a specific traffic problem. Roundabouts have become one of the most significant traffic control measures because they are generally statistically safer and more efficient than traditional at grade intersections. This book is dedicated to the evaluation of the operating conditions of roundabouts. In five parts, it thoroughly illustrates the calculation of the capacity,including reliability, and waiting phenomena parameters, such as the times spent in the system and queue lengths. Fully worked examples are included throughout the chapters, with detailed explanations.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione
