Simulation of Freeway Merging and Diverging Behavior
Simplified theory of kinematic waves was proposed by Newell and uses cumulative arrival and departure counts to describe kinematic waves of freeway traffic. The original paper deals only with traffic on freeway mainline. It is of great interest, at least practically, to investigate whether the simplified theory can be used to simulate freeway traffic merging and diverging behavior. In his paper...
متن کاملExploring factors contributing to injury severity at freeway merging and diverging locations in Ohio.
Identifying factors that affect crash injury severity and understanding how these factors affect injury severity is critical in planning and implementing highway safety improvement programs. Factors such as driver-related, traffic-related, environment-related and geometric design-related were considered when developing statistical models to predict the effects of these factors on the severity o...
متن کاملHybrid stochastic framework for freeway traffic flow modelling
Traffic flow is an interesting many-particle phenomenon, with nonlinear interactions between the vehicles. This paper studies highway traffic and presents a general framework for traffic modelling as a stochastic hybrid system (with continuous and discrete dynamics and some interactions between its components). The freeway is considered as a network of components, each component modelling a dif...
متن کاملInvestigation of flow and heat transfer of nanofluid in a diverging sinusoidal channel
Using of nanofluids and ducts with corrugated walls are both supposed to enhance heat transfer, by increasing the heat transfer fluid conductivity and the heat transfer area respectively. Use of a diverging duct with a jet at inlet section may further increase heat transfer by creating recirculation zones inside the duct. In this work two-dimensional incompressible laminar flow of a nanofluid e...
متن کاملSimulation, Dynamics and Control of Freeway Traffic
This paper presents the Simulator of Intelligent Transportation Systems (SITS).The SITS is based on a microscopic simulation approach to reproduce real traffic conditions in an urban or non-urban network considering different types of vehicles, drivers and roads. A dynamical analysis of several traffic phenomena, applying a new modelling formalism based on the embedding of statistics and Fourie...
