| Abstract | In urban areas, traffic signals cause unnecessary stops and delays to vehicles resulting in excessive energy consumptions and emissions. The eco-approach technology has been introduced to achieve environment-friendly driving behaviors and to improve energy efficiencies with reduced rapid accelerations or decelerations. However, it is not clear how the behavior of drivers would change while following an eco-approaching vehicle. Especially in the mixed traffic, dynamics behind the interactions between the human-driven vehicle and connected automated vehicle (CAV) that perfectly achieves the eco-approach and the impacts on energy consumptions are not transparent. This research designs a driving simulation environment for the mixed traffic to assess the benefits of the eco-approach. In the experiments, a straight roadway with four signalized intersections equipped with communication devices is developed. An eco-guidance algorithm for human drivers and an eco-approach control algorithm of CAV with the I2-V communication system are designed and compared, where each scenario is tested 50 times with a human driver using a driving simulator. The results indicate that both the eco-guidance scenario and following CAV with the eco-approach scenario could reduce over 6% of fuel consumptions compared with the base-case scenario, which is normal-driving without guidance. This indicates the energy efficiency benefit of the eco-approach of CAVs and its impact on surrounding vehicles in the mixed traffic. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
