Traffic flow models with ‘slow‐to‐start’ rules [PDF]
AbstractWe investigate two models for traffic flow with modified acceleration (‘slow‐to‐start’) rules. Even in the simplest case vmax = 1 these rules break the ‘particle‐hole’ symmetry of the model. We determine the fundamental diagram (flow‐density relationship) using the so‐called car‐oriented mean‐field approach (COMF) which yields the exact ...

Exact limiting solutions for certain deterministic traffic rules
We analyze the steady-state flow as a function of the initial density for a class of deterministic cellular automata rules (``traffic rules'') with periodic boundary conditions [H. Fuks and N. Boccara, Int. J. Mod. Phys. C 9, 1 (1998)].

SummaryMany animals take part in flow-like collective movements. In most species, however, the flow is unidirectional. Ants are one of the rare group of organisms in which flow-like movements are predominantly bidirectional. This adds to the difficulty of the task of maintaining a smooth, efficient movement. Yet, ants seem to fare well at this task. Do

Risk Perceptions of Crash Related Traffic Rule Violations [PDF]
The objective of this paper is to evaluate drivers’ risk perception toward crash related traffic rule violations and identify violations that are perceived as low risk to better educate drivers.

Generalized Deterministic Traffic Rules [PDF]
We study a family of deterministic models for highway traffic flow which generalize cellular automaton rule 184. This family is parameterized by the speed limit m and another parameter k that represents a "degree of aggressiveness" in driving, strictly related to the distance between two consecutive cars.

Preliminary Concept of Urban Air Mobility Traffic Rules
Driven by recent technological breakthroughs, the electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft has gained considerable attention. The widespread demand for eVTOL aircraft can be attributed to their potential use in the commercialisation of ...

On the Impact of the Rules on Autonomous Drive Learning
Autonomous vehicles raise many ethical and moral issues that are not easy to deal with and that, if not addressed correctly, might be an obstacle to the advent of such a technological revolution. These issues are critical because autonomous vehicles will
