Criterion for traffic phases in single vehicle data and empirical test of a microscopic three-phase traffic theory

open access: yes, 2005
A microscopic criterion for distinguishing synchronized flow and wide moving jam phases in single vehicle data measured at a single freeway location is presented.

Traffic flow sensitivity to visco-elasticity

open access: yesTheoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2016
This letter reports traffic flow sensitivity to visco-elasticity, with the traffic flow modeling briefly described at first and then used to do traffic flow simulations whose results can reflect the properties of spatial–temporal evolution of ring ...

A Marine Traffic Flow Model [PDF]

open access: yesTransNav, 2013
A model is developed for studying marine traffic flow through classical traffic flow theories, which can provide us with a better understanding of the phenomenon of traffic flow of ships.

Modelling Widely Scattered States in `Synchronized' Traffic Flow and Possible Relevance for Stock Market Dynamics

open access: yes, 2001
Traffic flow at low densities (free traffic) is characterized by a quasi-one-dimensional relation between traffic flow and vehicle density, while no such fundamental diagram exists for `synchronized' congested traffic flow.

Traffic Flow Prediction Using MI Algorithm and Considering Noisy and Data Loss Conditions: An Application to Minnesota Traffic Flow Prediction

open access: yesPromet (Zagreb), 2014
Traffic flow forecasting is useful for controlling traffic flow, traffic lights, and travel times. This study uses a multi-layer perceptron neural network and the mutual information (MI) technique to forecast traffic flow and compares the prediction ...

Economics-Based Optimization of Unstable Flows

open access: yes, 1999
As an example for the optimization of unstable flows, we present an economics-based method for deciding the optimal rates at which vehicles are allowed to enter a highway.

Traffic network design by cellular automaton-based traffic simulator

open access: yesComputer Assisted Methods in Engineering and Science, 2017
Braess pointed out that adding a new road to overcome a traffic congestion could cause a new traffic congestion leading to the reduction of the traffic flow in the whole traffic network, which is called Braess' paradox.

From Drivers to Athletes -- Modeling and Simulating Cross-Country Sking Marathons

open access: yes, 2014
Traffic flow of athletes in classic-style cross-country ski marathons, with the Swedish Vasaloppet as prominent example, represents a non-vehicular system of driven particles with many properties of vehicular traffic flow such as unidirectional movement,

The Stability of downtown parking and traffic congestion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In classical traffic flow theory, there are two velocities associated with a given level of traffic flow. Following Vickrey, economists have termed travel at the higher speed congested travel and at the lower speed hypercongested travel.

Transient situations in traffic flow: Modelling the Mexico City Cuernavaca Highway

open access: yes, 2005
In this paper a recent variable anticipation cellular automata model for single-lane traffic flow is extended to analyze the situation of free and congested flow in the Highway from Mexico City to Cuernavaca.
