The simulation of traffic flow on networks requires knowledge on the behavior across traffic intersections. For macroscopic models based on hyperbolic conservation laws there exist nowadays many ad-hoc models describing this behavior. Based…
We consider solutions of the Aw-Rascle model for traffic flow fulfilling a constraint on the flux at $x=0$. Two different kinds of solutions are proposed: at $x=0$ the first one conserves both the number of vehicles and the generalized…
In this paper we develop a boundary state feedback control law for a traffic flow network system in its most fundamental form: one incoming and one outgoing road connected by a junction. The macroscopic traffic dynamics on each road segment…
In this paper, we introduce a traffic flow model based on a microscopic follow-the-leader model, while enforcing maximal constraints on the density and velocity of the flow. The related macroscopic model can be represented in conservative…
We consider the Follow-The-Leader approximation of the Aw-Rascle-Zhang (ARZ) model for traffic flow in a multi-population formulation. We prove rigorous convergence to weak solutions of the ARZ system in the many particle limit in presence…
The thesis deals with the Aw-Rascle-Zhang model for traffic. We have applied the model to describe the influence of a large and slow vehicle (a bus or a truck) on the traffic. The trajectory of the bus is given by an ODE. The model can also…
We consider, in the Aw-Rascle-Zhang traffic flow model, the problem of the asymptotic stability of constant flows. By using a perturbative approach, we show the stability in a larger space of perturbation than previous results. Furthermore,…
Lane changing is one of the most common maneuvers on motorways. Although, macroscopic traffic models are well known for their suitability to describe fast moving crowded traffic, most of these models are generally developed in one…
In this paper, we derive second order hydrodynamic traffic models from kinetic-controlled equations for driver-assist vehicles. At the vehicle level we take into account two main control strategies synthesising the action of adaptive cruise…
We extend the Aw-Rascle macroscopic model of car traffic into a two-way multi-lane model of pedestrian traffic. Within this model, we propose a technique for the handling of the congestion constraint, i.e. the fact that the pedestrian…
We are interested in 2x2 systems of conservation laws of special structure, including generalized Aw-Rascle and Zhang (GARZ) models for road traffic. The simplest representative is the Keyfitz-Kranzer system, where one equation is nonlinear…
In this paper we study a model for traffic flow on networks based on a hyperbolic system of conservation laws with discontinuous flux. Each equation describes the density evolution of vehicles having a common path along the network. In this…
In this paper we propose coupling conditions for a kinetic two velocity model for vehicular traffic on networks. These conditions are based on the consideration of the free space on the respective roads. The macroscopic limit of the kinetic…
We propose a model describing the traffic flow on a road with variable widths in this paper. The model, which is modified the Aw-Rascle model, is not conservative because of the source term. We obtain the elementary waves of the new traffic…
