Overview of Motorway Network Traffic Control Strategies
The efficient, safe, and less polluting transportation of persons and goods on motorways calls for an optimal utilisation of the available infrastructure via suitable application of a variety of traffic control measures. The recent developments and advances in the areas of computation and communications may support this effort, but it is evident that the efficiency of traffic control depends on...
متن کاملRAPPORT Routing control of a motorway network
The problem of setting route directives in a motorway network is formulated as a dynamic game problem. After restricting attention to a Nash equilibrium, a search procedure for such an equilibrium is proposed.
متن کاملHeavy traffic on a controlled motorway
Unlimited access to a motorway network can, in overloaded conditions, cause a loss of capacity. Ramp metering (signals on slip roads to control access to the motorway) can help avoid this loss of capacity. The design of ramp metering strategies has several features in common with the design of access control mechanisms in communication networks. Inspired by models and rate control mechanisms de...
متن کاملIntroduction : Disasters as Politics – Politics as Disasters
What is the relationship between politics and disasters and how does this relate to the recent boom in disaster studies? The introduction to this volume argues that the recent interest in disasters is not because there are more disasters, but because of two recent developments within the social sciences: first, a focus on rupture rather than on continuity and second, a focus on materiality. Dis...
متن کاملFeedback-Based Integrated Motorway Traffic Flow Control
Congestion on motorways is a serious problem of modern societies. It reduces the nominal capacity of the motorway infrastructure, with serious impact on travel times, traffic safety, fuel consumption and environmental pollution. Various traffic management measures have been proposed to alleviate traffic congestion but are known to face limitations. An integrated motorway traffic flow control co...
