    • computeLaneChangeAndAcceleration

      public final LaneMovementStep computeLaneChangeAndAcceleration​(LaneBasedGTU gtu, java.util.Collection<Headway> sameLaneGTUs, java.util.Collection<Headway> preferredLaneGTUs, java.util.Collection<Headway> nonPreferredLaneGTUs, Speed speedLimit, Acceleration preferredLaneRouteIncentive, Acceleration laneChangeThreshold, Acceleration nonPreferredLaneRouteIncentive) throws ParameterException, OperationalPlanException
      Compute the acceleration and lane change.
      Specified by:
      computeLaneChangeAndAcceleration in interface LaneChangeModel
      Parameters:
      gtu - LaneBasedGTU; the GTU for which the acceleration and lane change is computed
      sameLaneGTUs - Collection<Headway>; the set of observable GTUs in the current lane (can not be null and may include the gtu)
      preferredLaneGTUs - Collection<Headway>; the set of observable GTUs in the adjacent lane where GTUs should drive in the absence of other traffic (must be null if there is no such lane)
      nonPreferredLaneGTUs - Collection<Headway>; the set of observable GTUs in the adjacent lane into which GTUs should merge to overtake other traffic (must be null if there is no such lane)
      speedLimit - Speed; the local speed limit
      preferredLaneRouteIncentive - Acceleration; route incentive to merge to the adjacent lane where GTUs should drive in the absence of other traffic
      laneChangeThreshold - Acceleration; threshold that prevents lane changes that have very little benefit
      nonPreferredLaneRouteIncentive - Acceleration; route incentive to merge to the adjacent lane into which GTUs should merge to overtake other traffic
      Returns:
      LaneMovementStep; the result of the lane change and GTU following model
      Throws:
      ParameterException - in case of a parameter problem.
      OperationalPlanException - if DefaultAlexander perception category is not present.
    • applyDriverPersonality

      public abstract Acceleration applyDriverPersonality​(DualAccelerationStep accelerationSteps)
      Return the weighted acceleration as described by the personality. This incorporates the personality of the driver to the lane change decisions.
      Parameters:
      accelerationSteps - DualAccelerationStep; the DualAccelerationStep that contains the AccelerationStep that the reference GTU will make and the AccelerationStep that the (new) follower GTU will make
      Returns:
      Acceleration; the acceleration that the personality of the driver uses (in a comparison to a similarly computed acceleration in the non-, or different-lane-changed state) to decide if a lane change should be performed
