Transitions between two lanes often have a significant impact on various forms of road traffic. To address this problem, we have developed a two-lane asymmetric simple exclusion process model and two hypothetical traffic control strategies,…
We analyze the structure and dynamics in the low-density phase of the deterministic two-dimensional cellular automaton model of traffic flow introduced in [O. Biham, A.A. Middleton and D. Levine, Phys. Rev. A 46, R6124 (1992)]. The model…
We present a detailed analysis of single-vehicle data which sheds some light on the microscopic interaction of the vehicles. Besides the analysis of free flow and synchronized traffic the data sets especially provide information about wide…
Steering traffic in cities is a very complex task, since improving efficiency involves the coordination of many actors. Traditional approaches attempt to optimize traffic lights for a particular density and configuration of traffic. The…
We study the relation between the average traffic flow and the vehicle density on road networks that we call 2D-traffic fundamental diagram. We show that this diagram presents mainly four phases. We analyze different cases. First, the case…
We consider a system of ordered cars moving in $\R$ from right to left. Each car is represented by a point in $\R$; two or more cars can occupy the same point but cannot overpass. Cars have two possible velocities: either 0 or 1. An…
Rush hour and sustained traffic flows in eight cities are studied using the IBM Mega Traffic Simulator to understand the importance of road structures and vehicle acceleration in the prevention of gridlock. Individual cars among the tens of…
We study a hierarchy of models based on kinetic equations for the descriptions of traffic flow in presence of autonomous and human--driven vehicles. The autonomous cars considered in this paper are thought of as vehicles endowed with some…
In most modern cities, traffic congestion is one of the most salient societal challenges. Past research has shown that inserting a limited number of autonomous vehicles (AVs) within the traffic flow, with driving policies learned…
We present a traffic flow model consisting of a gluing between the Lighthill-Whitham and Richards macroscopic model with a first order microscopic follow the leader model. The basic analytical properties of this model are investigated.…
Conditions for the occurrence of bidirectional collisions are developed based on the Simon-Gutowitz bidirectional traffic model. Three types of dangerous situations can occur in this model. We analyze those corresponding to head-on…
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…
In this paper, we propose a novel model that describes how the traffic evolution on a highway stretch is affected by the presence of a service station. The presented model enhances the classical CTM dynamics by adding the dynamics…
In recent years the modelling of traffic flow using methods from statistical physics, especially cellular automata models have allowed simulations of large traffic networks faster than real time. In this paper, we study a probabilistic…
In this paper we propose a new modeling technique for vehicular traffic flow, designed for capturing at a macroscopic level some effects, due to the microscopic granularity of the flow of cars, which would be lost with a purely continuous…
Hybrid traffic modeling and simulation provide an important way to represent and evaluate large-scale traffic networks at different levels of details. The first level, called "microscopic" allows the description of individual vehicles and…
Modeling heterogeneous and multi-lane traffic flow is essential for understanding and controlling complex transportation systems. In this work, we consider three vehicle populations: two classes of human-driven vehicles (cars and trucks)…
The propagation of traffic congestion along roads is a commonplace nonlinear phenomenon. When many roads are connected in a network, congestion can spill from one road to others as drivers queue to enter a congested road, creating further…
The simulation of traffic flow on networks requires knowledge on the behavior across traffic intersections. For macroscopic models based on hyperbolic conservation laws there exist nowadays many ad-hoc models describing this behavior. Based…
In this paper, a new model for traffic on roads with multiple lanes is developed, where the vehicles do not adhere to a lane discipline. Assuming identical vehicles, the dynamics is split along two independent directions: the Y-axis…
