Resumo: The main objective of this paper is to es0mate and evaluate the effect of motorcycles on signalized intersec0ons. For this, variables that represent the presence of motorcy-cles in front of the first vehicle in the queue, between vehicles longitudinally, and be-tween vehicles laterally (on virtual lane) were collected. The results showed that the average effect of a motorcycle posi0oned ahead or between vehicles on the start-up lost 0me is between 0.3 and 0.7 s. However, there was no evidence that motorcycles on the virtual lane affects the vehicle queue discharge. Regarding the satura0on headways, the results indicated that a motorcycle in front of a vehicle increases its discharge headway by 0.7 s, an increase of 30%. A 10% increase in the propor0on of motorcycles decreases satura0on flow by around 60 veh/h. The passenger car equivalent factor for motorcycle obtained in this study was 0.21, considering only the motorcycles posi0oned longitudi-nally between vehicles.

Para isso, foram coletadas variáveis que representam a presença de motocicletas na frente do primeiro veículo na fila, entre os veículos longitudinalmente e entre veículos lateralmente (na faixa virtual). Os resultados mostram que o efeito médio de uma motocicleta posicionada à frente ou entre veículos no tempo perdido inicial está entre 0.3 e 0.7s. No entanto, não houve evidência de que motocicletas na faixa virtual afeta a descarga da fila de veículos. Em relação aos headways de saturação, os resultados indicam que uma motocicleta na frente de um veículo aumenta seu headway de descarga em 0.7 s, um aumento de 30%. Um aumento de 10% na proporção de motocicletas diminui o fluxo de saturação em cerca de 60 veh/h. O fator de equivalência de carros de passeio para motocicletas obtido neste estudo foi de 0.21, considerando apenas as motocicletas posicionadas longitudinalmente entre veículos.2021-05-12T12:14:16Z2021-05-12T12:14:16Z2020info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfTORQUATO, Roberto Matheus Nunes; MACIEL, Matheus Souza Carvalho; CASTRO NETO, Manoel Mendonça de.
