Heterogeneous Traffic Flow Modelling with the Lwr Model Using Passenger-car Equivalents
SUMMARY This paper presents an extension of Lighthill, Whitham and Richards' dynamic traffic flow model (LWR) to a number of vehicle classes. Each class will be described by a separate fundamental diagram. When the various diagrams are similar in shape a scaling can be carried out that is related to the passenger-car equivalents. We present both an analytical framework and a numerical computati...
متن کاملSelf-organizing Traffic Lights
Steering traffic in cities is a very complex task, since improving efficiency involves the coordination of many actors. Traditional approaches attempt to optimize traffic lights for a particular density and configuration of traffic. The disadvantage of this lies in the fact that traffic densities and configurations change constantly. Traffic seems to be an adaptation problem rather than an opti...
متن کاملAgent controlled traffic lights
Due to several reasons, changing conditions in the environment do not always lead to changes in the traffic control units. The hypothesis of this research is that it may be useful to make use of self evaluating and self organising intelligent (urban) traffic control systems. In this research we focus on the applicability of autonomous intelligent agents within urban traffic control (i.e. traffi...
متن کاملStatistical Analysis of Two-lane Roundabout Data for Traffic Control Decision-Making in an Urban Area
Researches using existing statistics and data collected from the area of study help officials at decision-making, to improve the region's problems, like the problem of the high rate of accidents in the region, despite the low volume of daily service. The uses of roundabouts in many parts of the world have many advantages over intersections, amongst them are increased safety and capacity and red...
متن کاملLwr Recycle: Necessity or Impediment?
The nuclear fuel cycle can be truly closed by supp lementing today’s thermal reactors with fast reactors, which can use as fuel the heavy, fissionable isotopes that accumulate in thermal-reactor fuel. In a fully closed cycle, the waste for disposal consists only of fission products with trace amounts of actinides. Eliminating the transuranics reduces the heat load in the repository, increasing ...
