TLDR
It is found that the proposed model can describe the phase transition of traffic flow and estimate the evolution of traffic congestion and the lateral separation effects greatly enhance the realism of car following models.Abstract:
In order to describe car following behavior in real world, this paper presents a non-lane-based car following model by incorporating the effects of the lane width in traffic. The stability condition of the model is obtained by using the linear stability theory. And numerical simulation is carried out to validate the analytic results. The property of the model is investigated, and it is found that the proposed model can describe the phase transition of traffic flow and estimate the evolution of traffic congestion. The results implied that incorporating the lane width effects in car following model not only stabilize traffic flow and suppress the traffic jam, but also lower critical headway and increase capacity. Thus, the lateral separation effects greatly enhance the realism of car following models.read more

A new car-following model with consideration of anticipation driving behavior
TL;DR: A new anticipation driving car-following (AD-CF) model is presented and good agreement between the simulation and the analytical results shows that the stability of traffic flow can be enhanced when the driver’s anticipation effects are considered.

An Operational Analysis of Traffic Dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors studied the dynamics of a line of traffic composed of n vehicles, where the movements of the vehicles are controlled by an idealized ''law of separation'' which specifies that each vehicle must maintain a certain prescribed following distance from the preceding vehicle.
