This contribution presents experimental study of two-dimensional pedestrian flow with the aim to capture the pedestrian behaviour within the cluster formed in front of the bottleneck. Two experiments of passing through a room with one…
We introduce a simple lattice model of traffic flow in a city where drivers optimize their route-selection in time in order to avoid traffic jams, and study its phase structure as a function of the density of vehicles and of the drivers'…
Light is shown to exhibit critical and tricritical behavior in passive mode-locked lasers with externally injected pulses. It is a first and unique example of critical phenomena in a one-dimensional many body light-mode system. The phase…
We study period doublings in $N$ $(N=2,3,4, \dots)$ coupled parametrically forced damped pendulums by varying $A$ (the amplitude of the external driving force) and $c$ (the strength of coupling). With increasing $A$, the stationary point…
Current developments in autonomous off-road driving are steadily increasing performance through higher speeds and more challenging, unstructured environments. However, this operating regime subjects the vehicle to larger inertial effects,…
Statistical mechanics of a small system of cars on a single-lane road is developed. The system is not characterized by a Hamiltonian but by a conditional probability of a velocity of a car for the given velocity and distance of the car…
We consider one-way road deterministic traffic model with $N$ particles. The simplest local control protocol, which reminds physical interaction)\d{ }with three parameters is considered. We study the stable and unstable domains of the phase…

The fundamental diagram is an assumed functional relationship between traffic flow and traffic density. In practice, this relationship is noisy and exhibits significant statistical variability. On smart motorways, this variability is…
Phase transitions from an active into an absorbing, inactive state are generically described by the critical exponents of directed percolation (DP), with upper critical dimension d_c = 4. In the framework of single-species…
We study the appearance of first-order dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) as `intermittent' co-existing phases in the fluctuations of random walks on graphs. We show that the diverging time scale leading to critical behaviour is the waiting…
To mimic the complex transport-like collective phenomena in a man-made or natural system, we study an open network junction model of totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with bulk particle attachment and detachment. The stationary…
A probabilistic cellular automaton for cargo transport is presented that generalizes the totally asymmetric exclusion process with a defect from continuous time to parallel dynamics. It appears as an underlying principle in cellular…
Second order macroscopic traffic flow models are able to reproduce the so-called capacity drop effect, i.e., the phenomenon that the outflow of a congested region is substantially lower than the maximum achievable flow. Within this work, we…
From the macroscopic viewpoint for describing the acceleration behavior of drivers, this letter presents a weighted probabilistic cellular automaton model (the WP model, for short) by introducing a kind of random acceleration probabilistic…
We study a (1+1) dimensional probabilistic cellular automaton that is closely related to the Domany-Kinzel (DKCA), but in which the update of a given site depends on the state of {\it three} sites at the previous time step. Thus, compared…
We present large scale and detailed analysis of the microscopic empirical data of the traffic flow, focusing on the non-linear interactions between the vehicles when the traffic is congested. By implementing a "renormalisation" procedure…
Ionic flow carries electrical signals for cells to communicate with each other. The permanent charge of an ion channel is a crucial protein structure for flow properties while boundary conditions play a role of the driving force. Their…
We study the problem of distributed traffic control in the partitioned plane, where the movement of all entities (robots, vehicles, etc.) within each partition (cell) is coupled. Establishing liveness in such systems is challenging, but…
We study a one-dimensional totally asymmetric exclusion process with random particle attachments and detachments in the bulk. The resulting dynamics leads to unexpected stationary regimes for large but finite systems. Such regimes are…
