Traffic flow modeling of large-scale motorwaynetworks using the macroscopic modeling tool METANET
This paper employs previously developed modeling, validation, and stimulation tools to address, for the first time, the realistic macroscopic simulation of a real large-scale motorway network. More specifically, the macroscopic simulator METANET, involving a second-order traffic flow model as well as network-relevant extensions, is utilized. A rigorous quantitative validation procedure is appli...
متن کاملMacroscopic Modeling and Simulation of Freeway Traffic Flow
This paper illustrates the macroscopic modeling and simulation of Interstate 80 Eastbound Freeway in the Bay Area. Traffic flow and occupancy data from loop detectors are used for calibrating the model and specifying the inputs to the simulation. The freeway is calibrated based on the Link-Node Cell Transmission Model and missing ramp flow data are estimated using an iterative learning-based im...
متن کاملStability of macroscopic traffic flow modeling through wavefront expansion
In this paper, second-order macroscopic vehicle traffic flow models are discussed from the perspective of their capability to reproduce stable and unstable traffic flow behaviors observed in real traffic. To achieve this goal, a nonlinear traffic flow stability criterion is derived using a wavefront expansion technique. Qualitative relationships between traffic flow stability and model paramete...
متن کاملMacroscopic Modeling of Freeway Traffic Using an Artificial Neural Network
Institute of Transportation Studies, University of California, Irvine, Calif. 92717. Traffic flow on freeways is a complex process that often is described by a set of highly nonlinear, dynamic equations in the form of a macroscopic traffic flow model. However, some of the existing macroscopic models have been found to exhibit instabilities in their behavior and often do not track real traffic d...
متن کاملMacroscopic modeling of traffic in cities
Most of the existing models for large scale arterial networks are not realistic and appropriate to deal with crowded conditions. As an alternative, we propose observation-based models that circumvent the fragility problems of traditional models. Monitoring replaces prediction, and the system is repeatedly modified based on observations. To succeed this goal a city is modeled in an aggregated ma...
