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 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…

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…

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,…

We propose and analyse a new microscopic second order Follow-the-Leader type scheme to describe traffic flows. The main novelty of this model consists in multiplying the second order term by a nonlinear function of the global density, with…

This paper is concerned with a fluidodynamic model for traffic flow. More precisely, we consider a single conservation law, deduced from conservation of the number of cars, defined on a road network that is a collection of roads with…

We present a new fluid-dynamical model of traffic flow. This model generalizes the model of Aw and Rascle [SIAM J. Appl. Math. 60 916-938] and Greenberg [SIAM J. Appl. Math 62 729-745] by prescribing a more general source term to the…
