چکیده

We investigate an optimal velocity model which includes the reflex time of drivers. After an analytical study of the stability and local bifurcations of the steady-state solution, we apply numerical continuation techniques to investigate the global behavior of the system. Specifically, we find branches of oscillating solutions connecting Hopf bifurcation points, which may be super- or subcritical, depending on parameters. This analysis reveals several regions of multistability.

Prediction of Car Following Behavior Based on the Instantaneous Reaction Time using an ANFIS-CART Based Model

Car-following models are among the most important components of micro traffic flow simulation which is studiedby transportation experts to evaluate new applications of intelligent transportation systems. Until now, several carfollowingmodels have been proposed. An obvious disadvantage of the former models is the great number of parameterswhich are difficult to calibrate. In th...

Multiple Traffic Jams in Full Velocity Difference Model with Reaction-time Delay

A full velocity difference model for traffic flow, including driver’s reaction time delay is considered. The uniform flow and traffic jams are interpreted through stability and bifurcation analysis. Specifically, the uniform flow is represented by the equilibrium of the model. Linear stability reveals that when the equilibrium loses its stability, local bifurcation turn up through Hopf bifurcat...

Developing a Model of Heterogeneity in Driver’s Behavior

Intelligent Driver Model (IDM) is a well-known microscopic model of traffic flow within the traffic engineering societies. While it is a powerful technique for modeling traffic flows, the Intelligent Driver Model lacks the potential of accommodating the notion of drivers’ heterogeneous behavior whenever they are on roads. Concerning the above mentioned, this paper takes the lane to recognize th...

Delayed Car-following Dynamics for Human and Robotic Drivers

A general class of car-following models is analyzed where the longitudinal acceleration of a vehicle is determined by a nonlinear function of the distance to the vehicle in front, their velocity difference, and the vehicle’s own velocity. The driver’s response to these stimuli includes the driver reaction time that appears as a time delay in governing differential equations. The linear stabilit...

Stability and Bifurcation of an SIS Epidemic Model with Saturated Incidence Rate and Treatment Function

       In this paper an SIS epidemic model with saturated incidence rate and treatment func- tion is proposed and studied. The existence of all feasible equilibrium points is discussed. The local stability conditions of the disease free equilibrium point and endemic equilibrium point are established with the help of basic reproduction number.However the global stabili- ty conditions of these eq...
