On the mathematical theory of vehicular traffic flow II discrete velocity kinetic models
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with the modelling of vehicular traffic flow by methods of the discrete mathematical kinetic theory. The discretization is developed in the velocity space by a grid adapted to the local density. The discretization overcomes, at least in part, some technical difficulties related to the selection of the correct representation scale, while the adaptative grid allows an improved description of various phenomena related to vehicular traffic flow. Specific models are proposed and a qualitative and computational analysis is developed to show the properties of the model and their ability to describe real flow conditions. A critical analysis, proposed in the last part of the paper, outlines suitable research perspectives.

Enskog-like discrete velocity models for vehicular traffic flow
We consider an Enskog-like discrete velocity model which in the limit yields the viscous Lighthill-Whitham-Richards equation used to describe vehicular traffic flow. Consideration is given to a discrete velocity model with two speeds. Extensions to the Aw-Rascle system and more general discrete velocity models are also discussed. In particular, only positive speeds are allowed in the discrete v...

This review reports the existing literature on traffic flow modelling in the framework of a critical overview which aims to indicate research perspectives. The contents mainly refer to modelling by fluid dynamic and kinetic equations and are arranged in three parts. The first part refers to methodological aspects of mathematical modelling and to the interpretation of experimental results. The s...
متن کاملEffects of coupling on turbulent gas-particle boundary layer flows at borderline volume fractions using kinetic theory
This study is concerned with the prediction of particles’ velocity in a dilute turbulent gas-solidboundary layer flow using a fully Eulerian two-fluid model. The closures required for equationsdescribing the particulate phase are derived from the kinetic theory of granular flows. Gas phaseturbulence is modeled by one-equation model and solid phase turbulence by MLH theory. Resultsof one-way and...
متن کاملIdentifying and Analyzing Stop and Go Traffic based on Asymmetric Theory of Driving Behavior in Acceleration and Deceleration
Stop and go traffic that leads to oscillate traffic flow frequently is observed on congestion flow. Unexpected reasons such as lane – changing maneuvers, lower speeds of leader vehicle and moving bottleneck cause stop and go traffic and amplifying delay and environment impacts. Stop and go traffic exactly can’t be modeled by traffic models, and also car following models based on kinematic flow ...
متن کاملA neuro-fuzzy approach to vehicular traffic flow prediction for a metropolis in a developing country
Short-term prediction of traffic flow is central to alleviating congestion and controlling the negative impacts of environmental pollution resulting from vehicle emissions on both inter- and intra-urban highways. The strong need to monitor and control congestion time and costs for metropolis in developing countries has therefore motivated the current study. This paper establishes the applicatio...
