This paper develops a stochastic and unifying framework to examine variability in car-following (CF) dynamics of commercial automated vehicles (AVs) and its direct relation to traffic-level dynamics. The asymmetric behavior (AB) model by…

Experimental studies on vehicular traffic provide data on quantities like density, flux, and mean speed of the vehicles. However, the diagrams relating these variables (the fundamental and speed diagrams) show some peculiarities not yet…

Autonomous vehicles (AVs) hold vast potential to enhance transportation systems by reducing congestion, improving safety, and lowering emissions. AV controls lead to emergent traffic phenomena; one such intriguing phenomenon is traffic…

Using a stochastic cellular automaton model for urban traffic flow, we study and compare Macroscopic Fundamental Diagrams (MFDs) of arterial road networks governed by different types of adaptive traffic signal systems, under various…

In this paper, we study mixed traffic systems that move along a single-lane ring-road or open-road. The traffic flow forms a platoon, which includes a number of heterogeneous human-driven vehicles (HDVs) together with only one connected and…

Macroscopic fundamental diagrams (MFDs) and related network traffic dynamics models have received both theoretical support and empirical validation with the emergence of new data collection technologies. However, the existence of…

The macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) is a powerful and popular tool that describes a network scale traffic operational state and serve as the plant model of perimeter control. As both the supply and the demand suffer from random…

A two parameter model for single lane car-following is introduced and its equilibrium and non-equilibrium properties are studied. Despite its simplicity, this model exhibits a rich phenomenology, analogous to that observed in real traffic,…

The fundamental diagram (FD), also known as the flow--density relation, is one of the most fundamental concepts in the traffic flow theory. It describes the relation between equilibrated flow, density, and speed in traffic flow.…

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…

Automated Vehicle (AV) control in mixed traffic, where AVs coexist with human-driven vehicles, poses significant challenges in balancing safety, efficiency, comfort, fuel efficiency, and compliance with traffic rules while capturing…

This paper reports an experimental study on oscillation growth in mixed traffic flow of automated vehicles (AVs) and human driven vehicles (HVs). The leading vehicle moves with constant speed in the experiment. The following vehicles…

Emerging transportation technologies offer unprecedented opportunities to improve the efficiency of the transportation system from the perspectives of energy consumption, congestion, and emissions. One of these technologies is connected and…

A multi-agent deep reinforcement learning-based framework for traffic shaping. The proposed framework offers a key advantage over existing congestion management strategies which is the ability to mitigate hysteresis phenomena. Unlike…

We study traffic flow on roads with a localized periodic inhomogeneity such as traffic signals, using a stochastic car-following model. We find that in cases of congestion, traffic flow can be optimized by controlling the inhomogeneity's…

Car following (CF) models are fundamental to describing traffic dynamics. However, the CF behavior of human drivers is highly stochastic and nonlinear. As a result, identifying the best CF model has been challenging and controversial…

Coordination of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) in a mixed traffic environment poses significant challenges due to the presence of human-driven vehicles (HDVs) with stochastic dynamics and driving behavior. In earlier work, we…

Being widely adopted by the transportation and planning practitioners, the fundamental diagram (FD) is the primary tool used to relate the key macroscopic traffic variables of speed, flow, and density. We empirically analyze the relation…

In this paper a spatial homogeneous vehicular traffic flow model based on a stochastic master equation of Boltzmann type in the acceleration variable is solved numerically for a special driver interaction model. The solution is done by a…

In this work, we propose an alternative stochastic model for the fundamental diagram of traffic flow with minimal number of parameters. Our approach is based on a mesoscopic viewpoint of the traffic system in terms of the dynamics of…
