Antidiffusive and Random-Sampling Lagrangian-Remap Schemes for the Multiclass Lighthill-Whitham-Richards Traffic Model
The multiclass Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (MCLWR) traffic model, which distinguishes N classes of drivers differing in preferential velocity, gives rise to a system of N strongly coupled, nonlinear first-order conservation laws for the local car densities as a function of distance and time.We propose a new class of anti-diffusive schemes by splitting the system of conservation laws into two dif...
متن کاملMulti-lane hybrid traffic flow model: a theory on the impacts of lane-changing maneuvers
This paper introduces a multi-lane hybrid theory that treats lane-changing as temporary blockages, because this is what is physically observed in reality. For maximum accuracy lanechanging vehicles are modeled as discrete particles endowed with limited acceleration capabilities that interact realistically with the multi-lane continuum stream. This discrete-continuum (hybrid) setup is parsimonio...
متن کاملSupply-demand diagrams and a new framework for analyzing the inhomogeneous Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model
Traditionally, the Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) models for homogeneous and inhomogeneous roads have been analyzed in the flux-density space with the fundamental diagram of flux-density relation. In this paper, we present a new framework for analyzing the LWR model, especially the Riemann problem at a linear boundary in which the upstream and downstream links are homogeneous and initially ca...
متن کاملFront Tracking Algorithm for the Lighthill-whitham- Richards Traffic Flow Model with a Piecewise Quadratic, Continuous, Non-smooth, and Non-concave Fundamental Diagram
We use a front tracking algorithm to explicitly construct entropy solutions for the LighthillWhitham-Richards traffic flow model with a flow-density relationship that is piecewise quadratic, continuous, non-smooth, and non-concave. The solution is exact if the initial condition is piecewise linear and the boundary conditions are piecewise constant. The algorithm serves as a fast and accurate so...
متن کاملA kinematic wave theory of lane-changing traffic flow
Frequent lane-changes in highway merging, diverging, and weaving areas could disrupt traffic flow and, even worse, lead to accidents. In this paper, we propose a simple model for studying bottleneck effects of lane-changing traffic and aggregate traffic dynamics of a roadway with lane-changing areas. Based on the observation that, when changing its lane, a vehicle affects traffic on both its cu...
