A three-dimensional macroscopic fundamental diagram for mixed bi-modal urban networks
Recent research has studied the existence and the properties of a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) for large urban networks. The MFD should not be universally expected as high scatter or hysteresis might appear for some type of networks, like heterogeneous networks or freeways. In this paper, we investigate if aggregated relationships can describe the performance of urban bi-modal networks...

متن کاملAn analytical approximation for the macroscopic fundamental diagram of urban traffic
This paper shows that a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) relating flow and average density must exist on any street with blocks of diverse widths and lengths, but no turns, even if all or some of the intersections are controlled by arbitrarily timed traffic signals. The timing patterns are assumed to be fixed in time. Exact expressions in terms of a shortest path recipe are given, both, fo...
متن کاملClockwise Hysteresis Loops in the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram
A recent study reported that the Macroscopic Fundamental Diagram of a medium size city exhibited a clockwise hysteresis loop on a day in which a major disturbance caused many drivers to switch to unfamiliar routes. This paper shows that clockwise loops are to be expected when there are disturbances, especially if the disturbances cause a significant fraction of the drivers to not change routes ...
متن کاملThreshold queueing describes the fundamental diagram of uninterrupted traffic
Greenshields [13] captures the empirical relation between speed, flow and density for uninterrupted traffic in the fundamental diagram, see Figure 1. Mathematical models for uninterrupted traffic have been developed and the fundamental diagram in its basic form is now well-understood, see e.g. Newell [29, 30, 31] for a concise exposition. Traffic jams are a major concern for highway operation a...
