Threshold queueing describes the fundamental diagram of uninterrupted traffic
Greenshields [13] captures the empirical relation between speed, flow and density for uninterrupted traffic in the fundamental diagram, see Figure 1. Mathematical models for uninterrupted traffic have been developed and the fundamental diagram in its basic form is now well-understood, see e.g. Newell [29, 30, 31] for a concise exposition. Traffic jams are a major concern for highway operation a...
متن کاملReal-time travel time estimation using macroscopic traffic flow models
This paper presents the estimation of travel time on highways based on macroscopic modelling. The focus is on real-time values as compaved to average or static values. The macroscopic models are used for distributed and timehpace lumped settings and corresponding travel time estimation functions and algorithms are developed. The implications of these algorithms for the implementation of various...
متن کاملDerivation of a Fundamental Diagram for Urban Traffic Flow
Despite the importance of urban traffic flows, there are only a few theoretical approaches to determine fundamental relationships between macroscopic traffic variables such as the traffic density, the utilization, the average velocity, and the travel time. In the past, empirical measurements have primarily been described by fit functions. Here, we derive expected fundamental relationships from ...

متن کاملAn analytical approximation for the macroscopic fundamental diagram of urban traffic
This paper shows that a macroscopic fundamental diagram (MFD) relating flow and average density must exist on any street with blocks of diverse widths and lengths, but no turns, even if all or some of the intersections are controlled by arbitrarily timed traffic signals. The timing patterns are assumed to be fixed in time. Exact expressions in terms of a shortest path recipe are given, both, fo...
