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…
Nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations govern continuum traffic flow models. Higher-order traffic flow models consisting of continuum equations and velocity dynamics were introduced to address the limitations of the Lighthill,…
This paper establishes existence, uniqueness, and an L^1-comparison principle for weak solutions of a PDE system modeling phase transition reaction-diffusion in congested crowd motion. We consider a general reaction term and mixed…
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 study a granular model for congested crowd motion and pedestrian flow. Our approach is based on an approximation through a Hele-Shaw type equation involving a degenerate operator of $p$-Laplacian type and a linear drift, for which we…

This paper develops boundary feedback control laws in order to damp out traffic oscillations in the congested regime of the linearized two-class Aw-Rascle (AR) traffic model. The macroscopic second-order two-class AR traffic model consists…
We discuss numerical strategies to deal with PDE systems describing traffic flows, taking into account a density threshold, which restricts the vehicles density in the situation of congestion. These models are obtained through asymptotic…
In this paper we investigate numerically the model for pedestrian traffic proposed in [B.Andreianov, C.Donadello, M.D.Rosini, Crowd dynamics and conservation laws with nonlocal constraints and capacity drop, Mathematical Models and Methods…
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…
We discuss a nonlocal version of the Generalized Aw-Rascle-Zhang model, a second-order vehicular traffic model where the empty road velocity is a Lagrangian marker governed by a transport equation. The evolution of the car density is…
We calculate the diffusion coefficient of an active tracer in a schematic crowded environment, represented as a lattice gas of passive particles with hardcore interactions. Starting from the master equation of the problem, we put forward a…
We study the derivation of second order macroscopic traffic models from kinetic descriptions. In particular, we recover the celebrated Aw-Rascle model as the hydrodynamic limit of an Enskog-type kinetic equation out of a precise…
This paper studies a stochastic model that describes the evolution of vehicle densities in a road network. It is consistent with the class of (deterministic) kinematic wave models, which describe traffic flows on the basis of conservation…
Recent empirical studies have reported that spatiotemporal congestion clusters in urban traffic exhibit scale-free statistics, with cluster size following a power-law distribution. In this study, we address whether macroscopic continuum…
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…
We study the existence of weak solutions to the two-phase model of crowd motion. The model encompasses the flow in the uncongested regime (compressible) and the congested one (incompressible) with the free boundary separating the two…
We are interested in the numerical simulations of the Euler system with variable congestion encoded by a singular pressure. This model describes for instance the macroscopic motion of a crowd with individual congestion preferences. We…
In the spirit of the macroscopic crowd motion models with hard congestion (i.e. a strong density constraint $\rho\leq 1$) introduced by Maury {\it et al.} some years ago, we analyze a variant of the same models where diffusion of the agents…
We analyze numerically two macroscopic models of crowd dynamics: the classical Hughes model and the second order model being an extension to pedestrian motion of the Payne-Whitham vehicular traffic model. The desired direction of motion is…
