Traffic Flow Models with Phase Transitions

چکیده
The theory of hyperbolic conservation laws has been successfully applied to the study of vehicular traffic flows. We present here some models showing phase transitions, that in terms of traffic flows correspond to two distinct behaviors, free or congested.

Traffic flow models with phase transitions on road networks
The paper presents a review of the main analytical results available on the traffic flow model with phase transitions described in [10]. We also introduce a forthcoming existence result on road networks [14].
متن کاملThe 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...

The modelling of traffic flow using methods and models from physics has a long history. In recent years especially cellular automata models have allowed for large-scale simulations of large traffic networks faster than real time. On the other hand, these systems are interesting for physicists since they allow to observe genuine nonequilibrium effects. Here the current status of cellular automat...
متن کاملPhase transitions in two-dimensional traffic-flow models.
We introduce two simple two-dimensional lattice models to study traffic flow in cities. We have found that a few basic elements give rise to the characteristic phase diagram of a first-order phase transition from a freely moving phase to a jammed state, with a critical point. The jammed phase presents new transitions corresponding to structural transformations of the jam. We discuss their relev...
