Hello, I am running a co-simulation of SUMO (version 1.6.0) and matlab using traci4matlab. The simulation includes a merge scenario - two highway lanes that merge into one. The geometry includes one roads with two lanes (850 [m] long) , a junction (zipper, 140 [m] long ) and a single lane (100 [m] long). The vehicles are advanced using the IDM model which I wrote - I find the leader and the gap to the leader for each vehicle and calculate the required acceleration. Then I integrate the acceleration and calculat ethe required speed and use either setSpeed or slowDown in order to apply the speed for the vehicle in the next time step. I use speedMode = 7 ([00111]). MinGap = 2.5[sec]. vehicle length = 5[m]. This works smooth for ~142 [sec] (my simulation runs for 750 [sec]). there are issues of vehicles that are getting too close to each other while on the merge, for instance, if two vehicles that are originally on the top and bottom lane, now are both inside the merge, and they are not aware of each other, their relative distance can be negative. When this happens, I deliberately calculate the distance between them and use distance to leader = 2.5, just that I can continue using the IDM. At some point, I have a vehicle that gets too close to the other vehicle. I stop the vehicle using the max deceleration (I use -1.5[m/s^2]) until the leader is far enough to enable speed update according to the IDM. However, for several time steps I calculate the required acceleration, then required speed, I use setSpeed but SUMO ignores the setSpeed command and forces the max deceleration for the car. The simulation continues but practically this specific vehicle stops on the merge, thus preventing from the other vehicles that follow it to proceed. Apart for this problem, which I can't solve, I also note a parameter "time gap on lane [sec]" that is found when I right click the vehicle on the graphical interface. The values of the problematic vehicle keep decreasing to large negative values (e.g. -140 [sec]). I am trying to understand what is the meaning of this parameter. Thank for your help and support, Sharon
