Title: Study of the Delay Theory Model for Low Channeling Roundabouts
Abstract: A method research of the delay of roundabouts’ capacity is presented in this paper. With the use of queuing theory, this article has analyzed the character of traffic flow in low channeling level roundabouts,and puts forward a basic thought to roundabouts’ capacity and its delay. The delay model which suits to the roundabouts which have two entrances in oneway and two traffic lanes in circular line is set up. Then, we could get the conclusion that the time of roundabouts delay is related to the free flow ratio, the minimum time headway, the roundabouts capability and the length of weaving section. The model is important to plan, design and assess the serve level for roundabouts.
