Two-phase bounded-acceleration traffic flow model : Analytical solutions and applications Lebacque, JP
Publication details: Transportation Rsearch Record, 2003Description: nr 1852, s. 220-30Subject(s): Bibl.nr: VTI P8169:2003 Ref ; VTI P8167Location: Abstract: A two-phase traffic flow model is described. One phase is traffic equilibrium: flow and speed are functions of density, and traffic acceleration is low. The second phase is characterized by constant acceleration. This model extends first-order traffic flow models and recaptures the fact that traffic acceleration is bounded. Calculation of analytical solutions of the two-phase model for dynamic traffic situations is shown, a set of calculation rules is provided, and some examples are analyzed.| Cover image | Item type | Current library | Home library | Collection | Shelving location | Call number | Materials specified | Vol info | URL | Copy number | Status | Notes | Date due | Barcode | Item holds | Item hold queue priority | Course reserves | |
