Re: [sumo-dev] Miscalculation of Rotational Kinetic Energy, Curvature Energy Loss, and Auxiliary Energy Demand

Hi Buff,

these are severe errors, thanks for digging into the source.

Will get in touch with the developers to get an urgent fix.

Best,

Joerg

Hello,

We are running SUMO ver 1.6.0 under Windows 10, and we just discovered that the SUMO source code is calculating the Rotational Kinetic Energy, the Curvature Energy Loss, and the Constant Auxiliary Energy Demand incorrectly. The SUMO documentation lists the correct equations, but for some reason the source code is not correct in ver 1.6.0. Our findings are summarized below:

Thank you.
