Traffic Jam Simulation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2007
Abstract This research is concerned with the properties of incident-induced traffic jams on rectangular grid networks and possible measures for preventing and controlling them. However, while most conventional traffic management measures aim to increase capacity and hence postpone the onset of gridlock, this research develops several alternative ...
