Extensions and Amplifications of a Traffic Model of Aw and Rascle

چکیده

In a recent paper Aw and Rascle [SIAM J. Appl. Math., 60 (2000), pp. 916–938] introduced a new model of traffic on a uni-directional highway. Here the author studies an extension of this model, one which accounts for drivers attempting to travel at the maximum allowable speed. The author looks at a Lagrangian reformulation of this problem, a formulation that leads to an effective computational algorithm for solving the resulting system.

Existence of Solutions for the Aw–rascle Traffic Flow Model with Vacuum

We consider the macroscopic model for traffic flow proposed by Aw and Rascle in 2000. The model is a 2×2 system of hyperbolic conservation laws, or, when the model includes a relaxation term, a 2 × 2 system of hyperbolic balance laws. The main difficulty is the presence of vacuum, which makes us unable to control the total variation of the conservative variables. We allow vacuum to appear and p...

Car-following and the Macroscopic Aw–rascle Traffic Flow Model

We consider a semi-discrete car-following model and the macroscopic Aw–Rascle model for traffic flow given in Lagrangian form. The solution of the car-following model converges to a weak entropy solution of the system of hyperbolic balance laws with Cauchy initial data. For the homogeneous system, we allow vacuum in the initial data. By using properties of the semi-discrete model, we show that ...

The Aw-Rascle traffic flow model with phase transitions

We introduce a new model of traffic flow with phase transitions. The model is obtained by coupling together the classical Lighthill-Whitham-Richards (LWR) equation with the 2 × 2 system described in [A. Aw and M. Rascle, Resurrection of “second order” models of traffic flow, SIAM J. Appl. Math., 60 (2000), pp. 916–938]. We describe the solutions of the Riemann problem, and we compare the result...

A Hybrid Lagrangian Model Based on the Aw--Rascle Traffic Flow Model

In this paper, we propose a simple fully discrete hybrid model for vehicular traffic flow, for which both the macroscopic and the microscopic models are based on a Lagrangian discretization of the “Aw-Rascle” (AR) model [3]. This hybridization makes use of the relation between the AR macroscopic model and a Follow-the-Leader type model [15, 22], established in [2]. Moreover, in the hybrid model...

Moving bottlenecks for the Aw-Rascle-Zhang traffic flow model

We introduce a second order model for traffic flow with moving bottlenecks. The model consists of the 2×2 Aw-Rascle-Zhang system with a point-wise flow constraint whose trajectory is governed by an ordinary differential equation. We define two Riemann solvers, characterize the corresponding invariant domains and propose numerical strategies, which are effective in capturing the non-classical sh...
