Gipps' Model
Gipps' model is a mathematical model for describing car-following behaviour by motorists in the United Kingdom. The model is named after Peter G. Gipps who developed it in the late-1970s under S.R.C. grants at the Transport Operations Research Group at the University of Newcastle-Upon-Tyne and the Transport Studies Group at the University College London. Gipps' model is based directly on driver behavior and expectancy for vehicles in a stream of traffic. Limitations on driver and vehicle parameters for safety purposes mimic the traits of vehicles following vehicles in the front of the traffic stream. Gipps' model is differentiated by other models in that Gipps uses a timestep within the function equal to \tau to reduce the computation required for numerical analysis. Introduction The method of modeling individual cars along a continuous space originates with Chandler et al. (1958), Gazis et al. (1961), Lee (1966) and Bender and Fenton (1972),Gipps, P.
