Abstract
This study deals with development of a traffic simulator as an evaluation tool for traffic flow. In the simulator, dynamic behavior of vehicles, control algorithm of drivers, and traffic environment are described in order to analyze the effects of the ITS and exhaust emission, and so on. In this study, it is shown that a fundamental design for a flow-chart of total traffic simulator especially for the calculation algorithm. And, longitudinal and lateral behavior of the vehicles including driver's control behavior is calculated as an example of the simulator output. Finally, it is found that the models are described real traffic condition qualitatively.
