Technical and Economic Evaluation of Pinavia Interchange in Comparison with Roundabout Intersection by AIMSUN
Abstract: Interchanges that
are investigated in this research are roundabout interchange and pinavia
interchange that are simulated in AIMSUN software using traffic data. The
parameters that are considered for each
interchange are traffic volume,
pollutant emissions, fuel consumption, travel time, delay time ,construction
cost, repair and maintenance cost, travel time cost , fuel consumption cost and
safety , so that in technical evaluation traffic volume, pollutant emissions,
fuel consumption, travel time, delay time are compared by using two independent sample t – test that
are used for comparing of two group of
data and It is assumed that the variances are equal . Then In economic
evaluation construction cost, repair and maintenance cost, travel time cost ,
fuel consumption cost and safety are converted into cost by using axis produce
way that based on this supposal that storage in exchange for an hour of travel
time, increase an hour of production opportunities and construction cost,
repair and maintenance cost calculated by executive plans and Related
Regulations and finally each parameter is weighted by AHP and obtain the
universal (total) cost. Finally due to the total cost of the resulting it can
be seen that for twenty-year period pinavia interchange in compare with
roundabout interchange has 49% more efficient.
