Statistical mechanics of a disordered system of cars on a single-lane road is developed. Behaviour of cars is defined by conditional probability of car velocity depending on the distance and velocity of the car ahead. A system consisting of…
Control problems of mixed-autonomy traffic systems that consist of both human-driven vehicles (HV) and autonomous vehicles (AV), have gained increasing attention. This paper focuses on suppressing traffic oscillations in the mixed-autonomy…
This paper develops an automatic freeway bottleneck identification and visualization algorithm using a combination of image processing techniques and traffic flow theory. Unlike previous studies that are based solely on loop detector data,…
The balanced vehicular traffic model is a macroscopic model for vehicular traffic flow. We use this model to study the traffic dynamics at highway bottlenecks either caused by the restriction of the number of lanes or by on-ramps or…
Congestion; operational delays due to a vicious circle of passenger-congestion and train-queuing; is an escalating problem for metro systems because it has negative consequences from passenger discomfort to eventual mode-shifts. Congestion…
The conventional view of the congestion control problem in data networks is based on the principle that a flow's performance is uniquely determined by the state of its bottleneck link, regardless of the topological properties of the…
We introduce a new model to study the oscillations of opposite flows sharing a common bottleneck and moving on two Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (TASEP) lanes. We provide a theoretical analysis of the phase diagram, valid when…
While bringing convenience to people, the growing number of vehicles on road already cause inevitable traffic congestion. Some traffic congestion happen with observable reasons, but others occur without apparent reasons or bottlenecks,…
In this letter we propose an optimization-based boundary controller for traffic flow dynamics capable of achieving both stability and invariance conditions. The approach is based on the definition of Boundary Control Barrier Functionals,…
Moving and fixed bottlenecks are moving or fixed capacity restrictions that affect the propagation of traffic flow. They are a very important modeling approach to describe the effects of slow vehicles and traffic signals in transportation…
Capacity drop is a traffic phenomenon in which the discharge flow from a queue is lower than the theoretical infrastructure capacity. This paper proposes a generic analytical method to estimate the queue discharge flow of freeway traffic.…
Macroscopic traffic flow is stochastic, but the physics-informed deep learning methods currently used in transportation literature embed deterministic PDEs and produce point-valued outputs; the stochasticity of the governing dynamics plays…
We study a single-lane traffic model that is based on human driving behavior. The outflow from a traffic jam self-organizes to a critical state of maximum throughput. Small perturbations of the outflow far downstream create emergent traffic…
We introduce an optimum principle for a vehicular traffic network with road bottlenecks. This network breakdown minimization (BM) principle states that the network optimum is reached, when link flow rates are assigned in the network in such…
Bottlenecks, i.e. local reductions of capacity, are one of the most relevant scenarios of traffic systems. The asymmetric simple exclusion process (ASEP) with a defect is a minimal model for such a bottleneck scenario. One crucial question…
A nucleation model for the breakdown phenomenon in freeway free traffic flow at an on-ramp bottleneck is presented. This model, which can explain empirical results on the breakdown phenomenon, is based on assumptions of three-phase traffic…
Recent literature has proved that stable dynamic routing algorithms have solid theoretical foundation that makes them suitable to be implemented in a real protocol, and used in practice in many different operational network contexts. Such…
We develop a control design for stabilization of traffic flow in congested regime, based on an Aw-Rascle-Zhang-type (ARZ-type) Partial Differential Equation (PDE) model, for traffic consisting of both ACC-equipped (Adaptive Cruise…
This paper addresses the multivariable gradient-based extremum seeking control (ESC) subject to saturation. Two distinct saturation scenarios are investigated here: saturation acting on the input of the function to be optimized, which is…
This paper deals with traffic control at motorway bottlenecks assuming the existence of an unknown, time-varying, Fundamental Diagram (FD). The FD may change over time due to different traffic compositions, e.g., light and heavy vehicles,…
