Journal of Public Transportation, 2021 The conventional bus propagation process has two main shortcomings: one is bus bunching, the other is extra energy consumption by idling at signalized intersection and unexpected speed variation along the route. To overcome these problems simultaneously, an extended bus propagation model and an anti-bunching control are proposed.

A predictive-control framework to eliminate bus bunching [PDF]
, 2016 Buses not arriving on time and then arriving all at once - this phenomenon is known from busy bus routes and is called bus bunching. This thesis combines the well studied but so far separate areas of bus-bunching prediction and dynamic holding strategies, which allow to modulate buses’ dwell times at stops to eliminate bus bunching.

Holding Control of Bus Bunching without Explicit Service Headways
IFAC-PapersOnLine, 2016 Abstract: Holding-based control methods for bus operation are examined to point out that allowing greater variance in headways between consecutive buses leads to possible gains in total delay, as compared to strict adherence to a service headway. This result, obtained empirically, indicates that optimal operation is not necessarily attained with even
