Travel time through a ring road with a total length of 80 km has been predicted by a viscoelastic traffic model(VEM), which is developed in analogous to the non-Newtonian fluid flow. The VEM expresses a traffic pressure for the unfree flow case by space headway, ensuring that the pressure can be determined by the assumption that the relevant second critical sound speed is exactly equal to the disturbance propagation speed determined by the free flow speed and the braking distance measured by the average vehicular length. The VEM assumes that the sound speed for the free flow case depends on the traffic density in some specific aspects, which ensures that it is exactly identical to the free flow speed on an empty road. To make a comparison, the open Navier-Stokes type model developed by Zhang(ZHANG, H. M. Driver memory, traffic viscosity and a viscous vehicular traffic flow model. Transp. Res. Part B, 37, 27–41(2003)) is adopted to predict the travel time through the ring road for providing the counterpart results.When the traffic free flow speed is 80 km/h, the braking distance is supposed to be 45 m,with the jam density uniquely determined by the average length of vehicles l ≈ 5.8 m. To avoid possible singular points in travel time prediction, a distinguishing period for time averaging is pre-assigned to be 7.5 minutes. It is found that the travel time increases monotonically with the initial traffic density on the ring road. Without ramp effects, for the ring road with the initial density less than the second critical density, the travel time can be simply predicted by using the equilibrium speed. However, this simpler approach is unavailable for scenarios over the second critical. 相似文献

The effect of delay or reaction time on traffic flow dynamics has been investigated widely in the literature using microscopic traffic models. Recent studies using second-order Payne-type models have shown analytically that, on a macroscopic scale, time delay does not contribute to whether traffic instabilities occur. This paper will attempt to show that it all depends on the (macroscopic) model used for the analysis that delay does have effect on traffic instabilities or not. To this end, we will formulate a generalized (linear) stability condition for a second-order macroscopic model with delay and investigate analytically the effect of such delay on traffic instabilities in some specific macroscopic models. It is found that the choice of the equilibrium speed function in a (second order) macroscopic model will determine how delay affects such (linear) stability condition 相似文献

This paper reports on real-data testing results for a real-time nonlinear freeway traffic state estimator with particular
focus on its adaptive features. The pursued general approach to the real-time adaptive estimation of the complete traffic
state in freeway stretches is based on stochastic nonlinear macroscopic traffic flow modeling and extended Kalman filtering
that are outlined in the paper. One major innovative aspect of the estimator is the on-line estimation of important model
parameters (free speed, critical density, and capacity) simultaneously with the estimation of traffic flow variables (flows,
mean speeds, and densities), which leads to three significant advantages of the traffic state estimator: (1) avoidance of
off-line model calibration; (2) automatic adaptation to changing external conditions (e.g. weather and light conditions);
(3) enabling of incident alarms. The purpose of the reported real-data testing is, first, to demonstrate advantage (1) by
investigating some basic properties of the estimator and, second, to explore some adaptive capabilities of the estimator that
enable the other two advantages. The achieved testing results are quite satisfactory and promising for subsequent work. 相似文献

We consider a new form of solutions of a special lattice model for traffic system. By analyzing nearest sites’ interactions, time delay, and bumpy effects, we deduce the bifurcation lines and surfaces for stable and unstable regions and show how they vary as parameters vary. It shows that keeping other conditions unchanged, as the incoming flow increases, the traffic flow becomes unstable, opposite to when outgoing flow increases, it becomes stable. Besides, considering delayed optimal flow, multiple sites effect or artificial parameters can also help stabilize the traffic road condition. Moreover, by putting it into the framework of mKdV equations, we obtain the kink–antikink solitons involving all parameters, which show the feature of the traffic congestion. The result is original, and our model in differential or difference form can be reduced into the previous ones by choosing appropriate parameters. Since the optimal velocity function we considered involves finitely or infinitely many sites, the density waves can be in multi-mode and high dimension forms and can also be quasi-periodic, we show a new feature of the traffic lattice system. 相似文献

An experimental study of the propagation of high-frequency acoustic waves through grid-generated turbulence by means of an
ultrasound technique is discussed. Experimental data were obtained for ultrasonic wave propagation downstream of heated and
non-heated grids in a wind tunnel. A semi-analytical acoustic propagation model that allows the determination of the spatial
correlation functions of the flow field is developed based on the classical flowmeter equation and the statistics of the travel
time of acoustic waves traveling through the kinematic and thermal turbulence. The basic flowmeter equation is reconsidered
in order to take into account sound speed fluctuations and turbulent velocity fluctuations. It allows deriving an integral
equation that relates the correlation functions of travel time, sound speed fluctuations and turbulent velocity fluctuations.
Experimentally measured travel time statistics of data with and without grid heating are approximated by an exponential function
and used to analytically solve the integral equation. The reconstructed correlation functions of the turbulent velocity and
sound speed fluctuations are presented. The power spectral density of the turbulent velocity and sound speed fluctuations
are calculated. 相似文献

In this paper, a revisiting Hughes' dynamic continuum model is used to investigate and predict the essential macroscopic characteristics of pedestrian flow, such as flow, density and average speed, in a two dimensional continuous walking facility scattered with a circular obstruction. It is assumed that pedestrians prefer to walk a path with the lowest instantaneous travel cost from origin to destination, under the consideration of the current traffic conditions and the tendency to avoid a high-density region and an obstruction. An algorithm for the pedestrian flow model is based on a cellcentered finite volume method for a scalar conservation law equation, a fast sweeping method for an Eikonal-type equation and a second-order TVD Runge-Kutta method for the time integration on unstructured meshes. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of the algorithm. It is verified that density distribution of pedestrian flow is influenced by the position of the obstruction and the path-choice behavior of pedestrians. 相似文献

A review of dynamic nonlinear features of spatiotemporal congested patterns in freeway traffic is presented. The basis of
the review is a comparison of theoretical features of the congested patterns that are shown by a microscopic traffic flow
model in the context of the Kerner's three-phase traffic theory and empirical microscopic and macroscopic pattern characteristics
measured on different freeways over various days and years. In this test of the microscopic three-phase traffic flow theory,
a model of an "open" road is applied: Empirical time-dependence of traffic demand and drivers' destinations are used at the
upstream model boundaries. At downstream model boundary conditions for vehicle freely leaving a modeling freeway section(s)
are given. Spatiotemporal congested patterns emerge, develop, and dissolve in this open freeway model with the same types
of bottlenecks as those in empirical observations. It is found that microscopic three-phase traffic models can explain all
known macroscopic and microscopic empirical congested pattern features (e.g., probabilistic breakdown phenomenon as a first-order
phase transition from free flow to synchronized flow, moving jam emergence in synchronized flow rather than in free flow,
spatiotemporal features of synchronized flow and general congested patterns at freeway bottlenecks, intensification of downstream
congestion due to upstream congestion at adjacent bottlenecks). It turns out that microscopic optimal velocity (OV) functions
and time headway distributions are not necessarily qualitatively different, even if local congested traffic behavior is qualitatively
different. Model performance with respect to spatiotemporal pattern emergence and evolution cannot be tested using these traffic
characteristics. The reason for this is that important spatiotemporal features of congested traffic patterns are lost in these and many other macroscopic and microscopic traffic characteristics, which are widely used as the empirical basis
for a test of traffic flow models.

In order to investigate the effect of passing upon traffic flow on curved road, in this paper, an extended one-dimensional lattice hydrodynamic model for traffic flow on curved road with passing is proposed. The stability condition is obtained by the use of linear stability analysis. The result of stability analysis shows that passing behavior plays an important role in influencing the stability of traffic flow as well as radian of curved road. The nonlinear wave equations including Burgers, Korteweg-de Vries and modified Korteweg-de Vries equations are derived to describe the nonlinear traffic behavior in different regions, respectively. The analytical results show that reducing the coefficient of passing may enhance the stability of traffic flow. Jamming transition occurs between uniform flow and kink jam when the coefficient of passing is less than the critical value. When the coefficient of passing is larger than the critical value, jamming transition occurs from uniform flow to irregular wave through chaotic phase with decreasing sensitivity parameter. In addition, compared with other segments of curved road, traffic flow with passing easily becomes unstable and complicated at the entrance and exit of curved road, especially at the entrance of curved road. The numerical simulations are given to illustrate and clarify the analytical results. 相似文献

In this paper, we derive the KdV equation from the two-lane lattice hydrodynamic traffic model considering density difference effect. The soliton solution is obtained from the KdV equation. Under periodical boundary, the KdV soliton of traffic flow is demonstrated by numerical simulation. The numerical simulation result is consistent with the nonlinear analytical result. Under open system, the density fluctuation of the downstream last one lattice is designed to explore the empirical congested traffic states. A phase diagram is presented which includes free traffic, moving localized cluster, triggered stop-and-go traffic, oscillating congested traffic, and homogeneous congested traffic. Finally, the spatiotemporal evolution of all the traffic states described in phase diagram are reproduced. Results suggest that the two-lane density difference hydrodynamic traffic model is suitable to describe the actual traffic. 相似文献

Taking into account the driving characteristics of vehicles following the vehicle in front on the imported lane of urban signalized intersections, we introduce the acceleration parameters of the vehicle and consider the queue length and volatility of the acceleration that have been affected by the time of fixed signal cycles in the mixed traffic flow. Thereby, we obtain a mixed traffic flow cellular automaton model with the effect of acceleration on the imported lane. Through analyzing the results of numerical simulation, it is found that the maximum queue length and the volatility of acceleration have a great influence on the intersection lane mixed traffic flow with the different time of fixed signal cycles and considerably on traffic arriving strength within a certain range. When the intensity is in specific range, the longer the fixed signal cycle, the shorter the maximum queue length, and the greater the volatility of acceleration, which has smaller queue jam affecting the intersection lane mixed traffic flow. Meanwhile, the improved model can reproduce the evolution and propagation characteristics of gathering–dissipating of the traffic wave in the intersection lane mixed traffic flow. 相似文献

This paper uses the Taylor expansion to seek an approximate Korteweg- de Vries equation (KdV) solution to a higher-order traffic flow model with sufficiently large diffusion. It demonstrates the validity of the approximate KdV solution considering all the related parameters to ensure the physical boundedness and the stability of the solution. Moreover, when the viscosity coefficient depends on the density and velocity of the flow, the wave speed of the KdV solution is naturally related to either the first or the second characteristic field. The finite element method is extended to solve the model and examine the stability and accuracy of the approximate KdV solution. 相似文献

In this paper, we carry out an analysis of the structural properties of the solutions to the speed gradient (SG) traffic flow
model. Under the condition that the relaxation effect can be neglected, it is shown that a 1-shock or a 1-rarefaction is associated
with the first characteristic, but on the other hand, a contact discontinuity rather than a 2-shock or a 2-rarefaction is
associated with the second characteristic. Since the existence of a 2-shock or 2-rarefaction violates the physical mechanism
of the traffic flow, the SG model is more reasonable. If the relaxation effect cannot be neglected, it is somewhat difficult
to carry out the analytical analysis and the numerical simulation results should be obtained.

In this paper, a new lattice model of the traffic flow is proposed with the consideration of the driver anticipation effect for a two-lane system. The linear stability condition is derived by employing linear stability analysis. The analytical result shows that the driver anticipation effect can improve the stability of the traffic flow in a two-lane system. The mKdV equation near the critical point is obtained to describe the propagating behavior of a traffic density wave with the perturbation method. The simulation results are also in good agreement with the analytical results, which show that the traffic jam can be suppressed efficiently when the driver anticipation effect is considered in a two-lane system. 相似文献

In this paper, we propose a formulation for modeling macroscopic traffic flow using a modified speed–density relationship.
The flow model consists of a nonlinear hyperbolic system of conservation laws. The proposed modification distinguishes between
acceleration and deceleration by assuming a different equilibrium velocity for a given traffic density based on whether a
platoon of vehicles is accelerating or decelerating. We examine the appropriateness of this modification to two prominent
traffic flow models in a Lagrangian reference frame, which we solve computationally. We show that a Lagrangian coordinate
system is ideal for the incorporation of the proposed modification due to its ability to track the behavior of moving vehicles.
We see that the modification is particularly well suited to “second order” models. 相似文献
