The number of operating speed prediction models on tangents set out in the literature generally is lower than on circular elements because driver speed behavior is more complex to analyze.
They subsequently calibrated predictive speed models on tangents and curves which are not restricted to a specific percentile, but for all percentile speeds from the 5th to the 95th in increments of five.
The analysis is divided into two phases: the first deals with the identification of transition regions and the assessment of deceleration/acceleration rates for each curve, while the second concerns the calibration and validation of predictive operating speed models on tangents and curves.
Predicted operating speed models on tangents were calibrated using 140 study sites.
