A novel vehicle dynamics and human behavior car-following model: Model development and preliminary testing

A New Model of Car Following Behavior Based on Lane Change Effects Using Anticipation and Evaluation Idea

This paper aims to investigate a new and intricate behavior of immediate follower during the lane change of leader vehicle. Accordingly, the mentioned situation is a transient state in car following behavior during which the follower vehicle considerably deviates from conventional car following models for a limited time, which is a complex state including lateral and longitudinal movement simul...

Television and human development; providing a background model

Every human being is as a capacity that its actuality cannot be realized except through individual empowerment. One of the main methods of individual empowerment is poverty reduction, which is influenced by various institutions such as the mass media. Among the mass media, the special features of television have extended the capacity of the media to some extent that proposed it as a factor in h...

A Heterogeneous Visual Imaging Model for Analyzing the Impact of Vehicle Type on Car-Following Dynamics

1 Heterogeneity is an essential characteristic in car-following behaviors, which can be defined 2 as the differences between the car following behaviors of driver/vehicle combination under 3 comparable conditions. This paper proposes a Visual Imaging Model (VIM) with relaxed 4 assumption on a driver’s perfect perception for 3-D traffic information and uniform reaction 5 to vehicles with differe...

Mathematical Model of Novel COVID-19 and Its Transmission Dynamics

In this paper, we formulated a dynamical model of COVID-19 to describe the transmission dynamics of the disease. The well possedness of the formulated model equations was proved. Both local and global stability of the disease free equilibrium and endemic equilibrium point of the model equation was established using basic reproduction number. The results show that, if the basic reproduction numb...
