2383 - A Framework for Incorporating the Network-Wide Fundamental Diagram into Large-Scale Emission Estimation

ConclusionsThe proposed framework in this study successfully showed that for a large-scale network, the vehicular emission can be estimated using NFD with enough accuracy. Also, a 3D diagram which incorporates the traffic flow state into the network-wide emission is characterized. The results of this study enable system planners to monitor emissions generation and find optimal policies to control the level of emissions in large cities.
