Bifurcations in a Car-following Model with Delay
نویسندگان
چکیده
A simple car-following model that includes the reaction time of drivers is analyzed by numerical continuation techniques for the case of five cars on a ring. A two-dimensional bifurcation diagram is computed that summarizes the dynamics of steady states, oscillating solutions, collisions, and stopping as a function of model parameters. Further, a mechanism is proposed by which different spatial patterns may appear. Copyright c ©2004 IFAC

Using the Reaction Delay as the Driver Effects in the Development of Car-Following Models
Car-following models, as the most popular microscopic traffic flow modeling, is increasingly being used by transportation experts to evaluate new Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) applications. A number of factors including individual differences of age, gender, and risk-taking behavior, have been found to influence car-following behavior. This paper presents a novel idea to calculate ...
متن کاملSubcritical Hopf bifurcations in a car-following model with reaction-time delay
A nonlinear car-following model of highway traffic is considered, which includes the reaction-time delay of drivers. Linear stability analysis shows that the uniform flow equilibrium of the system loses its stability via Hopf bifurcations and thus oscillations can appear. The stability and amplitudes of the oscillations are determined with the help of normal-form calculations of the Hopf bifurc...

متن کاملA THREE DIMENSIONAL HTLV-1 MODEL WITH INTRACELLULAR AND IMMUNE ACTIVATION DELAYS
In this paper, a three dimensional mathematical model for HTLV-1infection with intracellular delay and immune activation delay is investigated.By applying the frequency domain approach, we show that time delays candestabilize the HAM/TSP equilibrium, leading to Hopf bifurcations and sta-ble or unstable periodic oscillations. At the end, numerical simulations areillustrated.
