چکیده

This article deals with the modeling of junctions in a road network from a macroscopic point of view. After reviewing the Aw & Rascle second order model, a compatible junction model is proposed. The properties of this model and particularly the stability are analyzed. It turns out that this model presents physically acceptable solutions, is able to represent the capacity drop phenomenon and can be used to simulate the traffic evolution on a network.

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...

Generic second-order macroscopic traffic node model for general multi-input multi-output road junctions via a dynamic system approach

This paper addresses an open problem in traffic modeling: the second-order macroscopic node problem. A second-order macroscopic traffic model, in contrast to a first-order model, allows for variation of driving behavior across subpopulations of vehicles in the flow. The second-order models are thus more descriptive (e.g., they have been used to model variable mixtures of behaviorally-different ...

Modifying PIARC’s Linear Model of Accident Severity Index to Identify Roads' Accident Prone Spots to Rehabilitate Pavements Considering Nonlinear Effects of the Traffic Volume

Pavement rehabilitation could affect the accident severity index (ASI) since restoration measures means more safety for road users. No research or project has been carried out to identify hazard points to build a linear model based on crash severity index. One of the very popular accident severity index models used in all countries is based on linear models to rehabilitate pavements and this pa...

A Fluid Dynamic Model for T-Junctions

Motivated by real road junctions, we consider a new fluid dynamic model for traffic flow on networks. In particular at T-junctions, beside some flows distribution and/or merging, there happen some interactions of cars coming from different roads and going to different destinations. After determining some rules to uniquely solve Riemann problems, we prove existence of solutions on complete netwo...

Optimal Signal Control in Urban Road Networks with High Priority Congested Centers

Keeping the density of traffic flow and air pollution in an acceptable level and developing a good capacity for transit in the high priority areas of the city, is really a big deal in large and crowded cities. To address this problem, a new method of intersection signal optimization is presented in this paper. Based on network fundamental diagrams, an Internal–External Traffic Metering Strategy...
