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 $\alpha_0$…

Measurements on real traffic have revealed the existence of metastable states with very high flow. Such states have not been observed in the Nagel-Schreckenberg (NaSch) model which is the basic cellular automaton for the description of…
We study the impact of a localized defect in a cellular automaton model for traffic flow which exhibits metastable states and phase separation. The defect is implemented by locally limiting the maximal possible flow through an increase of…
We present an exact solution of a probabilistic cellular automaton for traffic with open boundary conditions, e.g. cars can enter and leave a part of a highway with certain probabilities. The model studied is the asymmetric exclusion…
We have developed a modified Nagel-Schreckenberg cellular automata model for describing a conflicting vehicular traffic flow at the intersection of two streets. No traffic lights control the traffic flow. The approaching cars to the…
We use a very simple description of human driving behavior to simulate traffic. The regime of maximum vehicle flow in a closed system shows near-critical behavior, and as a result a sharp decrease of the predictability of travel time. Since…
A simple model that describes traffic flow in two dimensions is studied. A sharp {\it jamming transition } is found that separates between the low density dynamical phase in which all cars move at maximal speed and the high density jammed…
We present results on the modeling of on- and off-ramps in cellular automata for traffic flow, especially the Nagel-Schreckenberg model. We study two different types of on-ramps that cause qualitatively the same effects. In a certain…
We study several deterministic one-dimensional traffic models. For integer positions and velocities we find the typical high and low density phases separated by a simple transition. If positions and velocities are continuous variables the…

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 in fixed-time scheme controls the traffic flow. Open boundary condition is…

Multi-lane totally asymmetric simple exclusion processes with interactions between the lanes have recently been investigated actively. This paper proposes a two-lane model with extended Langmuir kinetics on a periodic lattice. Both…
It is shown that the desire for smooth and comfortable driving is directly responsible for the occurrence of complex spatio-temporal structures (``synchronized traffic'') in highway traffic. This desire goes beyond the avoidance of…

A flow of moving agents can be observed at different scales. Thus, in traffic modeling, three levels are generally considered: the micro, meso and macro levels, representing respectively the interactions between vehicles, groups of vehicles…
Recently, a fully two-dimensional microscopic traffic flow model for lane-free vehicular traffic flow has been proposed [Physica A, 509, pp. 1-11 (2018)]. In this contribution, we generalize this model to describe any kind of human-driven…

A system of identical cars on a single-lane road is treated as a microcanonical and canonical ensemble. Behaviour of the cars is characterized by the probability of car velocity as a function of distance and velocity of the car ahead. The…
