Wave Equation of Suppressed Traffic Flow Instabilities
Traffic congestion wastes fuel and commuter’s time and adds to CO2 emissions. Stop-and-go traffic instabilities can be suppresses using bilateral control—which differs from “car following” and adaptive cruise control in that, counter-intuitively, it uses information about the following vehicle (as well as about the leading vehicle). Stability can be proven mathematically [1], and can be demonst...
متن کاملA Kinematic Wave Traffic Flow Model for Mixed Traffic
In this paper we extend the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards kinematic wave traffic flow model to describe traffic with different types of vehicles, where all types of vehicles are completely mixed and travel at the same group velocity. A study of such a model with two vehicle classes (e.g., passenger cars and trucks) shows that, when both classes of traffic have identical free-flow speeds, the model...
متن کاملPhase transition in a difference equation model of traffic flow
A difference equation is presented to describe traffic flow on a highway. The difference equation model is derived from the optimal velocity models formulated in terms of the differential equations. It is compared with the differential equation models. We investigate phase transitions among the freely moving phase, the coexisting phase in which jams appear, and the uniform congested phase. The ...
متن کاملContinuous kinematic wave models of merging traffic flow
Traffic dynamics at a merging junction can be numerically solved with discrete conservation equationsand so-called supply-demand methods. In this paper, we first introduce a continuous multi-commoditykinematic wave model of merging traffic and then develop a new framework for constructing the solutionsto its Riemann problem with jump initial conditions. In the supply-demand spac...
متن کاملA kinematic wave theory of lane-changing traffic flow
Frequent lane-changes in highway merging, diverging, and weaving areas could disrupt traffic flow and, even worse, lead to accidents. In this paper, we propose a simple model for studying bottleneck effects of lane-changing traffic and aggregate traffic dynamics of a roadway with lane-changing areas. Based on the observation that, when changing its lane, a vehicle affects traffic on both its cu...
