Traffic Emissions Estimation Along a Road Infrastructure Using a Driving Simulator

It is well known that traffic has increased in the last years. This phenomenon has significantly changed traffic flow conditions and has produced a significant increase of interferences. Because of this, it is more effective using emission data calculated point by point instead of average values. In order to generalize the phenomenon of emissions, the analysis took advantage of the experiments carried out in the virtual reality laboratory. This research takes into account two different geometries and for each geometry, three different flow conditions. Data recorded using the driving simulator will be compared with data obtained from real scale tests.
