Kai Nagel,Michael Schreckenberg +1 more
TLDR
A stochastic discrete automaton model is introduced to simulate freeway traffic and shows a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic.Abstract:
We introduce a stochastic discrete automaton model to simulate freeway traffic. Monte-Carlo simulations of the model show a transition from laminar traffic flow to start-stop- waves with increasing vehicle density, as is observed in real freeway traffic. For special cases analytical results can be obtained.read more

Deterministic microscopic three-phase traffic flow models
Boris S. Kerner,Sergey L. Klenov +1 more
TL;DR: Two different deterministic microscopic traffic flow models, which are in the context of the Kerner's there-phase traffic theory, are introduced and it is found that the ATD and SA models show spatiotemporal congested traffic patterns that are adequate with empirical results.

Inhomogeneous cellular automata modeling for mixed traffic with cars and motorcycles
Lawrence W. Lan,Chiung-Wen Chang +1 more
TL;DR: This paper develops inhomogeneous cellular automata models to elucidate the interacting movements of cars and motorcycles in mixed traffic contexts and validate the deterministic CA models with stochastic CA rules with validated data.

Dynamics of Network Connectivity in Urban Vehicular Networks
TL;DR: This study, in addition to extensive simulations based on a new Cellular Automata Model for mobility, also provides a comprehensive analytical framework which leads to closed form results which facilitate physical insight into the impact of key system parameters on network connectivity.

On the distribution of urban road space for multimodal congested networks
Nan Zheng,Nikolaos Geroliminis +1 more
TL;DR: A multimodal macroscopic fundamental diagram is developed to represent the traffic dynamics of a multi-modal transport system and can serve as a physical dynamic model to inform space distribution strategies for policy makers with different goals of mobility.
