Journal Article
Investigation of network-level traffic flow relationships: some simulation results
TL;DR: An exploratory study of networklevel relationships in an isolated network with a fixed number of vehicles circulating according to the microscopic rules embedded in the NETSIM traffic simulation model yields useful insights into network-level traffic phenomena and suggests promising avenues for further research.
Journal Article
Urban traffic network flow models
TL;DR: The analysis indicates that the network-level traffic variables are interrelated in a manner similar to that captured by the traffic models established for individual road sections.
Journal Article
Analysis of traffic network flow relations and two-fluid model parameter sensitivity.
TL;DR: Moving traffic interference, which is represented by stochastic short-term lane blockages of varying duration and frequency, is shown to be a key determinant of the traffic character of an urban street network and of the behavior described by the two-fluid theory and verified operationally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sampling strategies for two-fluid model parameter estimation in urban networks
TL;DR: Simulation experiments suggest that aggregating the trip histories of 10 to 20 test vehicles over 10 to 15 minutes yields parameter estimates very close to the true value of the two-fluid model.
Journal Article
Influence of urban network features on quality of traffic service
TL;DR: The relation between street network geometric and control features and the network quality of traffic service is investigated and it is found that under low traffic concentrations in the network, the average speed limit and the degree of signal progression are the most influential features.
