We have developed a Nagel-Schreckenberg cellular automata model for describing of vehicular traffic flow at a single intersection. A set of traffic lights operating either in fixed-time or traffic adaptive scheme controls the traffic flow.…
Phase response curve is an important tool in studies of stable self-sustained oscillations; it describes a phase shift under action of an external perturbation. We consider multistable oscillators with several stable limit cycles. Under a…
In the so-called "microscopic" models of vehicular traffic, attention is paid explicitly to each individual vehicle each of which is represented by a "particle"; the nature of the "interactions" among these particles is determined by the…
In this paper we carry out a computational study of a novel microscopic follow-the-leader model for traffic flow on road networks. We assume that each driver has its own origin and destination, and wants to complete its journey in minimal…

We consider the problem of routing on a network in the presence of line segment constraints (i.e., obstacles that edges in our network are not allowed to cross). Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in the plane and let $S$ be a set of…
Fundamental to many transportation network studies, traffic flow models can be used to describe traffic dynamics determined by drivers' car-following, lane-changing, merging, and diverging behaviors. In this study, we develop a…
We propose a model for the intersection of two urban streets. The traffic status of the crossroads is controlled by a set of traffic lights which periodically switch to red and green with a total period of T. Two different types of…

Traffic control is at the core of research in transportation engineering because it is one of the best practices for reducing traffic congestion. It has been shown in recent years that the traffic control problem involving…

The effect of the on-ramp and off-ramp positions $i_1$ and $i_2$, respectively, on the one dimensional-cellular automaton traffic flow behaviour, is investigated numerically. The on-ramp and off-ramp rates at $i_1$ and $i_2$ are $\alpha_0$…
