With the development of microscopic traffic simulation and computer performance, traffic simulation is no longer limited to solving problems in the field of transportation. Microscopic traffic simulation can provide massive details, which can provide more possibilities for many studies. For studying traffic emissions, fuel consumptions and how the vehicle dynamic characteristics will affect traffic flow, a series of driver model and vehicle model for traffic simulation were built in this work. A traffic scenario of part of City Duisburg was also built in Simulation of Urban MObility (SUMO), which took advantage of the road network from Open Street Map (OSM) and traffic counter data provided by the municipality of Duisburg. As the vehicle models in SUMO are quite abstract and simplified, more detailed driver model and vehicle models were developed and applied in the simulation. The driver model is a fuzzy logic model based on behavior data of human drivers collected from driving simulator. In the vehicle models the characteristics of powertrains, braking systems, and the changes of driving resistances are all considered. These models make the simulated vehicles more similar to human drivers and realistic vehicles. The average fuel consumptions in this scenario was studied and the results with different models were also compared.
