Phase transition in a difference equation model of traffic flow
A difference equation is presented to describe traffic flow on a highway. The difference equation model is derived from the optimal velocity models formulated in terms of the differential equations. It is compared with the differential equation models. We investigate phase transitions among the freely moving phase, the coexisting phase in which jams appear, and the uniform congested phase. The ...
متن کاملPhase transition in a directed traffic flow network.
The generic feature of traffic in a network of flowing electronic data packets is a phase transition from a stationary free-flow phase to a continuously growing congested nonstationary phase. In the most simple network of directed oriented square lattice we have been able to observe all crucial features of such flow systems having nontrivial critical behavior near the critical point of transiti...
متن کاملJamming transition in a two-dimensional traffic flow model.
Phase transition and critical phenomenon are investigated in the two-dimensional traffic flow numerically and analytically. The one-dimensional lattice hydrodynamic model of traffic is extended to the two-dimensional traffic flow in which there are two types of cars (northbound and eastbound cars). It is shown that the phase transition among the freely moving phase, the coexisting phase, and th...
متن کاملChaotic jam and phase transition in traffic flow with passing.
The lattice hydrodynamic model is presented to take into account the passing effect in one-dimensional traffic flow. When the passing constant gamma is small, the conventional jamming transition occurs between the uniform traffic and kink density wave flows. When passing constant gamma is larger than the critical value, the jamming transitions occur from the uniform traffic flow, through the ch...
متن کاملA new stochastic cellular automaton model on traffic flow and its jamming phase transition
A general stochastic traffic cellular automaton (CA) model, which includes slow-to-start effect and driver’s perspective, is proposed in this paper. It is shown that this model includes well known traffic CA models such as NagelSchreckenberg model, Quick-Start model, and Slow-to-Start model as specific cases. Fundamental diagrams of this new model clearly show metastable states around the criti...
