00:03
Mobility Simulation is an integrated multimodal mobility simulation engine for InfraWorks.
00:10
You can use Mobility Simulation to create animated simulations of pedestrian movement, traffic and transit simulations,
00:18
and multimodal simulations.
00:20
For model augmentation, you can bring external models into mobility simulations to augment the model visually with 3Ds Max.
00:29
Mobility Simulation animations open in a different application window.
00:34
Key performance indicators can be exported as reports.
00:38
These reports include information such as Person-Hours Travelled, Person-KM Travelled, multimodal level of service calculations,
00:47
and economic and environmental assessments.
00:50
InfraWorks performs two main functions.
00:53
First, it drives traffic simulations.
00:56
Mobility Simulation works in the background, providing analytics and paths, or the routing of people or vehicles to InfraWorks.
01:04
It also provides access to advanced parameters for traffic simulations through the traffic analyst.
01:10
The other main function of InfraWorks is to serve as a launcher for Mobility Simulation.
01:16
This allows you to run pedestrian, traffic, and mixed-mode simulations.
01:21
One example of using Mobility Simulation in InfraWorks is simulating mobility in airports.
01:28
Here, you can see a fully modeled network.
01:31
This network includes people movement, traffic movement of people arriving in vehicles,
01:36
and people moving through various queueing systems.
01:39
This includes check-ins, baggage claims, and exiting the airport.
01:44
You can also simulate traffic intersections and crosswalks.
01:48
This is useful in reviewing how different modes of transportation work together.
01:53
The simulations include the movement of cyclists, personal and commercial vehicles, public transit, and pedestrians.
02:01
Mobility Simulation also allows you to review traffic systems at a larger scale.
02:07
This includes simulating traffic movement in dense urban areas.
02:11
Mobility Simulation can be used for seaports, to simulate ferry traffic, people movement, and ground transportation that services the port.
02:20
You can also use Mobility Simulation to simulate train arrivals and departures,
02:25
including people and personal vehicle movement to and from parking lots.
02:30
Mobility Simulation is particularly useful in spaces with a high concentration of multimodal movement,
02:37
such as shopping center parking lots.
02:40
These types of situations include personal vehicles involved in complex parking maneuvers
02:45
and pedestrians directly interacting with vehicular traffic.
02:49
Mobility simulation is an excellent way to create animated simulations of people movement,
02:54
traffic and transit simulations, and multimodal simulations.
