Soliton and kink jams in traffic flow with open boundaries.
Soliton density wave is investigated numerically and analytically in the optimal velocity model (a car-following model) of a one-dimensional traffic flow with open boundaries. Soliton density wave is distinguished from the kink density wave. It is shown that the soliton density wave appears only at the threshold of occurrence of traffic jams. The Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation is derived from...
متن کاملA Kink Soliton Characterizing Traffic Congestion
We study traffic congestion by analyzing a one dimensional traffic flow model. Developing an asymptotic method to investigate the long time behavior near a critical point, we derive the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation as the lowest order model. There are an infinite number of kink solitons to the mKdV equation, while it has been found by numerical simulations that the kink pattern ar...
متن کاملDx and the Kink Soliton
We provide analytical functions approximating e −x 2 dx, the basis of which is the kink soliton and which are both accurate (error < 0.2%) and simple. We demonstrate our results with some applications, particularly to the generation of Gaussian random fields.
متن کاملTraac Jams, Granular Ow, and Soliton Selection
The ow of traac on a long section of road without entrances or exits can be modelled by continuum equations similar to those describing uid ow. In a certain range of traac density, steady ow becomes unstable against the growth of a cluster, or \phantom" traac jam, which moves at a slower speed than the otherwise homogeneous ow. We show that near the onset of this instability, traac ow is descri...
متن کاملAnisotropy effect on two-dimensional cellular-automaton traffic flow with periodic and open boundaries.
Using computer simulations we investigate, in a version of the Biham-Middleton-Levine model with random sequential update on a square lattice, the anisotropy effect of the probabilities of the change of the motion directions of cars, from up to right (p(ur)) and from right to up (p(ru)), on the dynamical jamming transition and velocities under periodic boundaries on one hand and the phase diagr...
