Ventilation performance and pollutant flow in a unidirectional-traffic road tunnel

Application of fuzzy control to a road tunnel ventilation system

Traffic Flow on Road Junctions

The paper deals with a mathematical model for fluid dynamic flows on road networks which is based on conservation laws. This nonlinear framework is based on the conservation of cars. We focus on traffic circle, which is a finite number of roads that meet at some junctions. The traffic circle with junctions having either one incoming and two outgoing or two incoming and one outgoing roads. We de...

Traffic Flow on a Road Network

This paper is concerned with a fluidodynamic model for traffic flow. More precisely, we consider a single conservation law, deduced from conservation of the number of cars, defined on a road network that is a collection of roads with junctions. The evolution problem is underdetermined at junctions, hence we choose to have some fixed rules for the distribution of traffic plus an optimization cri...

Method of Video-Measurements of Traffic Flow Characteristics at a Road Junction

In the theory of traffic flows the main characteristics are: intensity, speed, and density.  They make it possible to use hydrodynamic models. In connection with the development of modern highways and road networks, traffic flows behavior is becoming more and more complex and diverse. In particular, the B.Kerner studies have shown that the laminar solution of hydrodynamic models is poorly corre...

Road Network Optimization for Increasing Traffic Flow

In the traffic flow on the city road network, it is observed that a new additional road, which is constructed for overcoming the traffic jam, causes more terrible traffic jam. This is well known as Braess’s paradox. Recently, it is pointed out that Braess’s paradox depends on the traffic density and the paradox disappears at high traffic density. The aim of this study is to describe the algorit...
