Traffic waves can rise even from single lane car-following behaviour. To better understand and mitigate traffic waves, it is necessary to use analytical tools like mathematical models, data analysis, and micro-simulations that can capture…
In this paper, we aim at developing new methods to join machine learning techniques and macroscopic differential models for vehicular traffic estimation and forecast. It is well known that data-driven and model-driven approaches have…
We consider two scalar conservation laws with non-local flux functions, describing traffic flow on roads with rough conditions. In the first model, the velocity of the car depends on an averaged downstream density, while in the second model…
This paper develops boundary control for freeway traffic with a downstream bottleneck. Traffic on a freeway segment with capacity drop at outlet of the segment is a common phenomenon leading to traffic bottleneck problem. The capacity drop…
We present a new class of macroscopic models for pedestrian flows. Each individual is assumed to move towards a fixed target, deviating from the best path according to the instantaneous crowd distribution. The resulting equation is a…
Jamitons are self-sustained traveling wave solutions that arise in certain second-order macroscopic models of vehicular traffic. A necessary condition for a jamiton to appear is that the local traffic density breaks the so-called…
We describe traffic flows in one lane roadways using kinetic theory, with special emphasis on the role of quenched randomness in the velocity distributions. When passing is forbidden, growing clusters are formed behind slow cars and the…
We present a macroscopic traffic flow model that extends existing fluid-like models by an additional term containing the second derivative of the safe velocity. Two qualitatively different shapes of the safe velocity are explored: a…

An extended multi-class Aw-Rascle (AR) model with pressure term described as a function of area occupancy defined in form of proportional densities is presented. Two vehicle classes that is; cars and motorcycles are considered based on an…
We generalize a recently introduced traffic model, where the statistical weights are associated with whole trajectories, to the case of two-way flow. An interaction between the two lanes is included which describes a slowing down when two…
We consider the follow-the-leader model for traffic flow. The position of each car $z_i(t)$ satisfies an ordinary differential equation, whose speed depends only on the relative position $z_{i+1}(t)$ of the car ahead. Each car perceives a…
In this paper, we propose a control design methodology for a linearized continuum traffic model in the congested regime. The continuum traffic flow on a highway is modeled using a linearized quasilinear hyperbolic partial differential…
We study a diffuse interface model describing the motion of two viscous fluids driven by the surface tension in a Hele-Shaw cell. The full system consists of the Cahn-Hilliard equation coupled with the Darcy's law. We address the physically…
The paper provides conditions that guarantee existence and uniqueness of classical solutions for a non-local conservation law on a ring-road with possible nudging (or "look behind") terms. The obtained conditions are novel, as they are not…
