Although I don't get how you obtain several dozens of buses with twice the insertion probability of 0,0015. With very small flows, the relative variance can get quite large, so for some simulations, it might just be 10 vehicles in total and 30 in others, but never 110.

Anyway, see the docs <https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Simulation/Randomness.html>for some suggestions how to procede. If you only have buses, maybe just insert them at regular intervals and add an offset *--random-depart-offset*/<TIME>/ <https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Basics/Notation.html#referenced_data_types>.

Hi Mirko,

The scenario consists of a one lane road where only buses are being modelled. The flows vary between 10 b/h and 110 b/h.

The buses are inserted at the route begin and there is no spillback. On the following image, I plotted the cumulative number of buses for each line (each graph is a replication)

As you can see, more 517 buses are inserted in almost all cases. Could it be related to randomness? How can I balance the number of buses, without inserting them at regular intervals?

Thanks in advance,

Kind regards

    Hi Jaime,

    that's difficult to guess without knowing more about your
    scenario. Did you check whether the buses are inserted at the
    route begin at all? Maybe there is a spillback queue or many other
    vehicles want to enter the simulation at the same place, such that
    SUMO cannot place new vehicles on the road safely. If your network
    is too big to do this manually, think of placing a detector
    
<https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Simulation/Output/Induction_Loops_Detectors_%28E1%29.html>
    (with attribute vTypes="vehDist_IDM_bus") at the route begin or
    adding FCD output
    <https://sumo.dlr.de/docs/Simulation/Output/FCDOutput.html> to
    your bus vehicle type to get relevant output for further diagnosis.

    Betreff: [sumo-user] Modelling two bus lines of equal frequency

    Hi,
    I am modelling two bus lines of equal frequency, but different
    stop times at bus stops. To avoid buses being inserted at perfect
    regular times, I am using probability:
    <flow id="517" type="vehDist_IDM_bus" line="517" begin="0.00"
    route="Ruta_517" end="4500" probability="0.0015" />
    <flow id="518" type="vehDist_IDM_bus" line="518" begin="0.00"
    route="Ruta_518" end="4500" probability="0.0015" />
    However, in many scenarios I am obtaining big differences in the
    number of simulated buses of one line with respect to the other
    (line 517 vs line 518). For example, the following graph shows the
    difference (number of 517 buses minus number of 518 buses) for a
    number of simulated scenarios:
    image.png
    These differences are important because I am getting results with
    noise. I don't want to use "vehsPerHour" or "number" because the
    buses would be equally spaced. Should I use period [exp(x)]? Doing
    so would balance the number of 517 and 518 simulated buses?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards,
