Abstract:This paper demonstrates that patient driving habits lead to homogenous congested flow while impatient driving habits lead to wide-moving jam flow in the high density region based on the numerical simulation of the intelligent driver model proposed by M.Treiber [M. Treiber, A.Hennecke, D. Helbing, Phys. Rev. E 62 (2) (2000), 1805-1824]. In a circular one lane traffic system which includes homogeneous drivers, we obtain the stable condition of homogenous flow and the phase diagram of traffic flow based on the linearization analysis. The phase diagram shows three possible pathways of phase transition along with the increase of global density: from the homogenous free flow to the homogenous congested flow directly, from the homogenous free flow to the synchronized flow then to the homogenous congested flow, or from the homogenous free flow to synchronized flow then to the wide-moving jam flow. The paper also analyzes the traffic flow including heterogenous drivers, and the results indicate that homogenous congested flow will lose its stability when the proportion of impatient drivers reaches a critical value and some new kinds of traffic flow emerge: wide-moving jam flow or a mixture of synchronized flow and wide-moving jam flow.
