Collective effects in traffic on bi-directional ant-trails [PDF]
, 2004 Motivated by recent experimental work of Burd et al., we propose a model of bi-directional ant-traffic on pre-existing ant-trails. It captures in a simple way some of the generic collective features of movements of real ants on a trail.
