Digital Twin, as an emerging technology related to Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) and Internet of Things (IoT), has attracted increasing attentions during the past decade. Conceptually, a Digital Twin is a digital replica of a physical entity in the real world, and this technology is leveraged in this study to design a cooperative driving system at non-signalized intersections, allowing connected vehicles to cooperate with each other to cross intersections without any full stops. Within the proposed Digital Twin framework, we developed an enhanced first-in-first-out (FIFO) slot reservation algorithm to schedule the sequence of crossing vehicles, a consensus motion control algorithm to calculate vehicles referenced longitudinal motion, and a model-based motion estimation algorithm to tackle communication delay and packet loss. Additionally, an augmented reality (AR) human-machine-interface (HMI) is designed to provide the guidance to drivers to cooperate with other connected vehicles. Agent-based modeling and simulation of the proposed system is conducted in Unity game engine based on a real-world map in San Francisco, and the human-in-the-loop (HITL) simulation results prove the benefits of the proposed algorithms with 20% reduction in travel time and 23.7% reduction in energy consumption, respectively, when compared with traditional signalized intersections.

Cooperative driving at signal-free intersections, which aims to improve driving safety and efficiency for connected and automated vehicles, has attracted increasing interest in recent years. However, existing cooperative driving strategies either suf
fer from computational complexity or cannot guarantee global optimality. To fill this research gap, this paper proposes an optimal and computationally efficient cooperative driving strategy with the polynomial-time complexity. By modeling the conflict relations among the vehicles, the solution space of the cooperative driving problem is completely represented by a newly designed small-size state space. Then, based on dynamic programming, the globally optimal solution can be searched inside the state space efficiently. It is proved that the proposed strategy can reduce the time complexity of computation from exponential to a small-degree polynomial. Simulation results further demonstrate that the proposed strategy can obtain the globally optimal solution within a limited computation time under various traffic demand settings.
Non-signalized intersection is a typical and common scenario for connected and automated vehicles (CAVs). How to balance safety and efficiency remains difficult for researchers. To improve the original Responsibility Sensitive Safety (RSS) driving st
rategy on the non-signalized intersection, we propose a new strategy in this paper, based on right-of-way assignment (RWA). The performances of RSS strategy, cooperative driving strategy, and RWA based strategy are tested and compared. Testing results indicate that our strategy yields better traffic efficiency than RSS strategy, but not satisfying as the cooperative driving strategy due to the limited range of communication and the lack of long-term planning. However, our new strategy requires much fewer communication costs among vehicles.
To properly assess the impact of (cooperative) adaptive cruise control ACC (CACC), one has to model vehicle dynamics. First of all, one has to choose the car following model, as it determines the vehicle flow as vehicles accelerate from standstill or
decelerate because of the obstacle ahead. The other factor significantly affecting the intersection throughput is the maximal vehicle acceleration rate. In this paper, we analyze three car following behaviors: Gipps model, Improved Intelligent Driver Model (IIDM) and Helly model. Gipps model exhibits rather aggressive acceleration behavior. If used for the intersection throughput estimation, this model would lead to overly optimistic results. Helly model is convenient to analyze due to its linear nature, but its deceleration behavior in the presence of obstacles ahead is unrealistically abrupt. Showing the most realistic acceleration and deceleration behavior of the three models, IIDM is suited for ACC/CACC impact evaluation better than the other two. We discuss the influence of the maximal vehicle acceleration rate and presence of different portions of ACC/CACC vehicles on intersection throughput in the context of the three car following models. The analysis is done for two cases: (1) free road downstream of the intersection; and (2) red light at some distance downstream of the intersection. Finally, we introduce the platoon model and evaluate ACC and CACC with platooning in terms of travel time ad network throughput using SUMO simulation of the 4-mile stretch of Colorado Boulevard / Huntington Drive arterial with 13 signalized intersections in Arcadia, Southern California.
To demystify the Digital Twin concept, we built a simple yet representative thermal incubator system. The incubator is an insulated box fitted with a heatbed, and complete with a software system for communication, a controller, and simulation models.
We developed two simulation models to predict the temperature inside the incubator, one with two free parameters and one with four free parameters. Our experiments showed that the latter model was better at predicting the thermal inertia of the heatbed itself, which makes it more appropriate for further development of the digital twin. The hardware and software used in this case study are available open source, providing an accessible platform for those who want to develop and verify their own techniques for digital twins.
Cooperative driving at isolated intersections attracted great interest and had been well discussed in recent years. However, cooperative driving in multi-intersection road networks remains to be further investigated, because many algorithms for isola
ted intersection cannot be directly adopted for road networks. In this paper, we propose a distributed strategy to appropriately decompose the problem into small-scale sub-problems that address vehicle cooperation within limited temporal-spatial areas and meanwhile assure appropriate coordination between adjacent areas by specially designed information exchange. Simulation results demonstrate the efficiency-complexity balanced advantage of the proposed strategy under various traffic demand settings.
