“…The first driving cycle was (2), achieving the final production of Edinburgh driving cycle [35]. In 2009, " the Edinburgh motorcycle driving cycle" was developed following forty five trips on five routes around city center [36]. An increase in cycle times was found compared to ECE, WMTC, and EDC driving cycles, which lead to a noted difference in driving conditions for motorcycles compared those for other vehicles [37].…”

“…The speed limit is 48 km·h −1 along the corridor and total percentage of motorcycle traffic varies from 1% -3% of the total fleet. The part of test track is used for developing the driving cycle for motorcycles-EMDC [1]. GPS based data acquisition system was installed in motorcycle for field data collection for calibration and results validation.…”

“…This Traditional chase car method, and on board method for data collection of driving cycle are expensive in nature [1]. Traffic micro-simulation models can simulate/ represent individual driver behavior and the real world driving cycles in laboratory for vehicles and roads in cost effective manner using secondary data [2].…”

“…In this paper, Driving Cycle Micro-Simulation Model for Motorcycle (DCMSMM) for a section of urban network in Edinburgh has been developed. Its calibration and validation has been done using different sets of realworld data of driving cycle of Edinburgh Motorcycle Driving Cycles (EMDC) and results of DCMSMM have been compared with published parameters of EMDC [1] and corresponding emission factor (EF) are evaluated.…”

Driving cycle of vehicle has been used in emission estimation and fuel consumption study. Existing method of data collection using car chasing technique is expensive. The technique using micro simulation approach is cheaper and fast to derive the driving cycle. In this paper a traffic simulation model Driving Cycle Micro-Simulation Model for Motorcycle has been developed. The issue of lateral and longitudinal movement aspect in motorcycle driving has been examined in the model. Parameters to cover such movement have been built in the model and applied on a stretch in Edinburgh city of Scotland. Results from model have been both calibrated and validated. The results show that Driving Cycle Micro-Simulation Model for Motorcycle gives better representation of driving cycle and it can be used to understand the effect of driving modes on emission for better understanding of vehicular emission control

“…3b referring to real world Europe for WMTC data. As a further comparison, the Edinburgh urban driving cycle [20] can be considered: its average speed level (35.0 km h À1 ) is within the range defined in this investigation, while its stop duration (1.4%) is at the lower end of the estimated values shown in Fig. 3a.…”
