Effects of large value assigned to the maximal car velocity on the fundamental diagrams in the Nagel-Schreckenberg model are studied by extended simulations. The function relating the flow in the congested traffic phase with the car density…
The optimal information feedback has a significant effect on many socioeconomic systems like stock market and traffic systems aiming to make full use of resources. In this paper, we studied dynamics of traffic flow with real-time…
We investigate two models for traffic flow with modified acceleration ('slow-to-start') rules. Even in the simplest case $v_{max}=1$ these rules break the 'particle-hole` symmetry of the model. We determine the fundamental diagram…

In this study, we provide a novel approach for modelling the mixed traffic flow. The basic idea is to integrate models for nonmotorized vehicles (nm-vehicles) with models for motorized vehicles (m-vehicles). Based on the idea, a model for…
The path-preference traffic flow cellular automaton is suggested to model the dynamics of transcription. The main difference from the simple traffic flow model is that it contains another preferential paths at some sites. In this paper, we…
We present a new cellular automata model of vehicular traffic in cities by combining ideas borrowed from the Biham-Middleton-Levine (BML) model of city traffic and the Nagel-Schreckenberg (NaSch) model of highway traffic. The model exhibits…
Urban traffic congestion is a chronic problem faced by many cities. It is essentially inefficient infrastructure use which results in increased vehicle fuel consumption and emissions. This in turn adds extra costs to commuters and…
A large number of models for pedestrian dynamics have been developed over the years. However, so far not much attention has been paid to their quantitative validation. Usually the focus is on the reproduction of empirically observed…
We study the problem of distributed traffic control in the partitioned plane, where the movement of all entities (robots, vehicles, etc.) within each partition (cell) is coupled. Establishing liveness in such systems is challenging, but…
This paper presents a new class of one-dimensional (1D) traffic models with look-ahead rules that take into account of two effects: nonlocal slow-down effect and right-skewed non-concave asymmetry in the fundamental diagram. The proposed 1D…
The evolution of oscillations is a very important issue in traffic flow studies. A recent car-following experiment (Experiment-I) showed that the speed standard deviation grows in a concave way along a platoon of vehicles following one…
The jam phases in a two-dimensional cellular automata model of traffic flow are investigated by computer simulations. Two different types of the jam phases are found. The spatially diagonal long-range correlation obeys the power law at the…
Due to the complexity of the traffic flow dynamics in urban road networks, most quantitative descriptions of city traffic so far are based on computer simulations. This contribution pursues a macroscopic (fluid-dynamic) simulation approach,…
In this second part of our research we used the models presented in \emph{Modeling a vehicular traffic network. Part I} \cite{ogm1} to perform an analysis of the urban traffic as recorded by cameras distributed in a chosen sector of Tigre,…
Most car-following models show a transition from laminar to ``congested'' flow and vice versa. Deterministic models often have a density range where a disturbance needs a sufficiently large critical amplitude to move the flow from the…
When a new vehicle joins a lane, those behind may have to temporarily slow to accommodate them. Changing lane can be forced due to lane drops or junctions, but may also take place spontaneously at discretion of drivers, and recent studies…
Recent advances in time series, where deterministic and stochastic modelings as well as the storage and analysis of big data are useless, permit a new approach to short-term traffic flow forecasting and to its reliability, i.e., to the…
By means of microscopic simulations we show that non-instantaneous adaptation of the driving behaviour to the traffic situation together with the conventional measurement method of flow-density data can explain the observed…
In part II, we present a fully distributed nonlinear variable time headway space strategy to ensure the subsequent safe cruising and junction crossing, where the cooperative perception of multiple neighbors stimuli and the cooperative…
