Consensus at Competitive Equilibrium: Dynamic Flow of Autonomous Cars in Traffic Networks
نویسنده
چکیده
The objective of this paper is to initiate a qualitative analysis of dynamic flow in traffic networks by using the competitive equilibrium model of multiple market systems. A network is modeled as a dynamic graph where routes (edges) are viewed by drivers (agents) as gross substitute commodities which they choose by considering the traffic densities as prices of the individual routes. By borrowing from economic equilibrium models the notions of gross substitution and homogeneity of excess demand functions, we will be able to show that the chosen decision rule of the drivers will lead to a consensus resulting in an even distribution of traffic density over all routes of the network.

Third-order Decentralized Safe Consensus Protocol for Inter-connected Heterogeneous Vehicular Platoons
In this paper, the stability analysis and control design of heterogeneous traffic flow is considered. It is assumed that the traffic flow consists of infinite number of cooperative non-identical vehicular platoons. Two different networks are investigated in stability analysis of heterogeneous traffic flow: 1) inter-platoon network which deals with the communication topology of lead vehicles and...
متن کاملA New Algorithm for Load Flow Analysis in Autonomous Networks
In this paper, a novel algorithm for the load flow analysis problem in an islanded microgrid is proposed. The problem is modeled without any slack bus by considering the steady state frequency as one of the load flow variables. To model different control modes of DGs, such as droop, PV and PQ, in an islanded microgrid, a new formula for load flow equations is proposed. A hybrid optimization alg...
متن کاملA Model of Interdomain Network Formation, Economics and Routing
The Internet at the interdomain level is highly dynamic, as autonomous networks change their connectivity to optimize either monetary cost, profit and/or performance. Internet Service Providers (ISPs), for example, are mainly concerned with maximizing their profits, and they attempt to do so by changing their set of providers or peers. It is not well understood, however, what the properties of ...

متن کاملEquilibrium traffic flow of a mixture of cars with different properties Anton
Statistical mechanics of a disordered system of cars on a single-lane road is developed. Behaviour of cars is defined by conditional probability of car velocity depending on the distance and velocity of the car ahead. A system consisting of different cars is modelled by a system of two types of cars differing in maximal velocity or efficiency of brakes. Starting from conditional probabilities a...
