Order parameter model for unstable multilane traffic flow
We discuss a phenomenological approach to the description of unstable vehicle motion on multilane highways that explains in a simple way the observed sequence of the phase transitions "free flow -> synchronized motion -> jam" as well as the hysteresis in

ABSTRACT Situational awareness (SA) refers to “knowing what is going on” in a situation. As an essential concept originating in aviation literature approximately 40 years ago, SA has demonstrated significant potential and has since been extended across various fields, leading to a growing body of research.

Merging Maneuver Technique for an Adaptive Autonomous Platoon in Multi-Lane Highways
One fundamental maneuver in vehicle platooning is merging, where a new vehicle joins the platoon to benefit from its advantages. To ensure safe and efficient merging, this operation typically follows a systematic framework.

Abstract Real‐time traffic signal control (TSC) in road networks remains challenging due to variable traffic flows and high computational complexity. Existing model predictive control (MPC) approaches often face several limitations, including the reliance on commercial solvers, the inflexibility of single‐objective optimization, and the use of ...

Explainable reinforcement learning for improved traffic signal control
Abstract Reinforcement learning has become a popular approach for traffic signal control, but its complexity often hinders practical application. To improve this, we propose a deep Q‐network framework with an attention mechanism inspired by how traffic police manage intersections.

Abstract Accurately assessing weaving area capacity is critical for optimizing traffic management. However, transportation agencies face a persistent challenge: Existing capacity models often inadequately characterize vehicle weaving behaviors and fail to quantify the interactions between influencing factors.

Abstract Existing methods for signal timing and vehicle trajectory coordination often rely on fixed‐phase designs or leading vehicle guidance, limiting efficiency in dynamic traffic and multi‐vehicle coordination. This study models signal timing as right‐of‐way allocation for each inbound lane at discrete time intervals and integrates trajectory ...
