Using the road traffic library in Anylogic, how do i simulate an occasional accident, a sensor notification to a response team, a rescue by response team and giving road access priority to response team traffic routing out of the scene

The road traffic library is probably not the best choice for this. You will need to use the process modeling library since it may be better for this application. But if you are using the road traffic library no matter what, here are some ideas:

  • The way you can simulate an accidente is setting the speed of the cars to 0... But you will have to create your own logic to make this happen (maybe using stop lines)... For visual help you can change how the car looks like to some car in flames or something.
  • The notification to the response team you can do it on your own... using statecharts, or something else... this is the easy part of your project
  • You can't give road priority access directly... but what you can do is to use an intersection instead of a road. Since in the intersection you can define lanes that can be used or not.

Nevertheless the big problem with your question is that it is a design question, and not something specific. So I can just give you some ideas, but not resolve the question completely.

  • Let me present the full picture and get professional advice if anylogic simulation is the way to go on this task RESOURCES INVOLVED Car/Vehicle/Ambulance, Rescue team, Control room,GPS,GSM, Micro controller, Sensors, Traffic control system SEQUENCE Vehicle accident occurs Sensors detect accident – Daniel Duodu-Poku Apr 11 '18 at 11:33
  • GPS and GSM receive signals from sensors GPS and GSM signal control room with alert Control room gets data and locates the nearest available ambulance and hospital (best route) Ambulance gets alert from control room on accident Ambulance alert control room of its availability Control room finds next available ambulance Ambulance heads to accident scene Control room for shortest available route to nearest hospital Control room signals all traffic light for access Ambulance gets to hospital and notifies control room of arrival Ambulance is available for next assignment – Daniel Duodu-Poku Apr 11 '18 at 11:34
  • You can do it in AnyLogic yes.. a combination of traffic library and agent-based would be my first guess... or second choice would be just to use process modeling library without the road traffic library – Felipe Apr 11 '18 at 11:39
  • Been trying to simulate the entire process as advised but great challenges lay ahead As a novice in Anylogic, a crush course by a guru will do How do i dm/pm or contact you to gain your personal attention – Daniel Duodu-Poku Apr 12 '18 at 18:47
