“…This model is composed of nine parameters related to the standstill distance (CC0), headway time (CC1), following variation (CC2), the threshold for entering following (CC3), following thresholds (CC4/CC5), speed dependency of oscillation (CC6), oscillation acceleration (CC7), standstill acceleration (CC8) and acceleration at 80 km.h-1 (CC9) ( [13], [61]). A great deal of emphasis has been placed on taking advantage of microscopic simulation tools for emulating the CAVs behavior as well as simulating their interactions within the road environment [44]. In particular, numerous studies have proposed to use the Wiedemann 99 car-following model and a suitable range of values for the above parameters to model CAVs in different types of roads and traffic conditions ( [18], [23], [24], [45], [50], [51], [54], [55]).…”
