TRANSYT-7F Sample Input Data Files:

*.xhs: These three data files were generated by HCS+ Signals, and can be imported into release 10 for building TRANSYT-7F traffic networks. They represent Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) sample calculations 1 through 3.

{lnkwse}.tin: This is the original Daytona Beach sample network from earlier releases. This sample network contains 12 intersections. It demonstrates several TRANSYT-7F simulation features including arterial routes, bottleneck links, and bus links.

{stpwse}.tin: This sample file is similar to {lnkwse}.tin, but demonstrates the coding of step-wise simulation instead of link-wise simulation.

Five Approach.tin: This is a variant of FourNode.tin (see below) having an intersection with five approaches.

FourNode.tin: This is a simple "box" network having four signalized intersections in a square configuration, and corresponds with CORSIM sample input file FourNode.trf (see below).

FourNode Lefty.tin: This is a left-hand drive version of FourNode.tin, and also uses metric units.

FourNode TP.tin: This is a multi-period version of FourNode.tin.

FourNodeHCS.xhs: This is an HCS+ file that can be imported into TRANSYT-7F to re-create FourNode.tin.  Refer to the Chapter 6 tutorial section for importing HCS files, from the TRANSYT-7F users guide, for details on how to make the results match those from FourNode.tin.

HCM Sample.tin: This is a simple two-phase intersection, and corresponds with the sample calculation of traffic-actuated phase times from HCM 2000 Chapter 16, Appendix B.

Level2Clean.tin: This is an arterial street having ten intersections and a variety of geometrics and phasing patterns, and corresponds with CORSIM sample input file Level2Clean.trf (see below).

Level2Perm.tin: This data set is related to Level2Clean.tin, but also contains numerous permitted movements.

Overlap.tin: This sample file illustrates the coding technique to achieve overlap phasing as short as 1 second. The coding technique requires adjustment of the start-up lost time and extension of effective green time at multiple movements.

Sign.tin: This sample file illustrates the coding of a two-way stop controlled (TWSC) intersection, as demonstrated within the Sign Control Examples tutorial section of the documentation.

Example #6x.tin: TRANSYT-7F input data files Example #6a.tin through Example #6h.tin are based on Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2000 sample calculation #3. The files were generated by loading HCS2000-Signals sample calculation #3 into TRANSYT-7F. The sample files were developed for the TRANSYT-7F training course to illustrate the modeling and calibration of permitted movements. Example #6i.tin through Example #6k.tin are unsignalized two-way stop control (TWSC) examples not based on HCM sample calculation #3. These files correspond with HCS2000-Unsignal sample file Example #6i.hcu, and are used to illustrate the modeling and calibration of unsignalized intersections. TRANSYT-7F input data files Example #6l.tin through Example #6n.tin are also based on Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) 2000 sample calculation #3. The sample files were generated for TRANSYT-7F training course module #6 to illustrate the modeling and calibration of shared lanes and lane utilization.

Example #7x.tin: TRANSYT-7F input data files Example #7a.tin through Example #7f.tin were developed for the TRANSYT-7F training course to illustrate queue spillback, queue spillover, multi-cycle simulation and multi-period simulation.

            CORSIM Input Data Files:

Lev2Clean.trf: This is an arterial street having ten intersections and a variety of geometrics and phasing patterns, and corresponds with TRANSYT-7F sample input file Level2Clean.tin.

4Node.trf: This is a simple “box” network having four signalized intersections in a square configuration, and corresponds with TRANSYT-7F sample input file FourNode.tin.

2Node.trf: This is a simple network having two signalized intersections in a row. Since the running times for CORSIM are relatively high, this simple network runs more quickly, and is ideal for testing the optimization features from TRANSYT-7F.

Sample Output Data Files:

*.tof: All files with the “tof” extension, which stands for TRANSYT-7F Output File, were generated by the TRANSYT-7F traffic simulation engine. These reports contain the detailed measures of effectiveness for the entire network, as well as for individual links and nodes. Some of these output files contain diagrams and progression-related output, and some do not. It depends on whether the associated input files contained progression routes or not.

FourNode TP Node Output.txt, FourNode TP Node Input.txt, FourNode TP Global Output.txt, FourNode TP Global Input.txt: These are samples of the new summary text reports.

Genetic.txt: This is a sample output file containing the results of genetic algorithm optimization of cycle length, phasing sequence, splits, and offsets.

2Node Summary.txt: This output file was generated by CORSIM processing. The input file was 2Node.trf.

Support File PPD.zip: This MS-DOS based platoon progression diagram program from earlier releases is no longer distributed with TRANSYT-7F, but can be downloaded here.
