In this study, we provide a novel approach for modelling the mixed traffic flow. The basic idea is to integrate models for nonmotorized vehicles (nm-vehicles) with models for motorized vehicles (m-vehicles). Based on the idea, a model for…
Cellular automata have turned out to be important tools for the simulation of traffic flow. They are designed for an efficient impletmentation on the computer, but hard to treat analytically. Here we discuss several approaches for an…

A model for 1D traffic flow is developed, which is discrete in space and time. Like the cellular automaton model by Nagel and Schreckenberg [J. Phys. I France 2, 2221 (1992)], it is simple, fast, and can describe stop-and-go traffic. Due to…
