Modelling cooperative roadside and in-vehicle intelligent transport systems using the its modeller

Within the coming years, the developments of infrastructural and in-vehicle ITS systems will come together and result in the development of cooperative vehicle-infrastructure ITS systems. The development of these integrated cooperative systems will require new modelling tools that allow a detailed modelling of both the roadside and the in...

Use of a vehicle-modelling tool for predicting CO2 emissions in the framework of European regulations for light goods vehicles

The reduction of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption from road transportation constitutes an important pillar of the EU commitment for implementing the Kyoto Protocol. Efforts to monitor and limit CO2 emissions from vehicles can effectively be supported by the use of vehicle modelling tools. This paper presents the application of such a tool for...
