Road traffic simulation is becoming more important as the complexity and multi-modality of
traffic grow with the evolution of novel transportation and automotive technologies. There are …

In this paper a new traffic flow model for congested arterial networks, named shockwave
profile model (SPM), is presented. Taking advantage of the fact that traffic states within a …

In this paper, we present a stochastic queuing model for the road traffic, which captures the
stationary density-flow relationships in both uncongested and congestion conditions. The …

In this paper, the effectiveness of state-dependent queueing models for analyzing traffic
flows is tested by comparing the speeds generated by the queueing models with the ones …

A new traffic model called LWR-IM has been developed to simulate traffic dynamics in urban
arterial network. The arrival profile produced by the LWR-IM could be analyzed using input …

Queues at signalized intersections are one of the main causes of traffic delays and urban
traffic state variability. Hence, a method to estimate queue characteristics provides a better …

Simulating traffic flow is an important problem in transport planning. The most popular
simulation approaches for large-scale scenarios today are aggregated models …

This paper proposes an extension of the discrete Lighthill–Whitham–Richards model of the
cell transmission model type to reproduce capacity drop and the propagation of jam waves …

In this paper, we propose a simple temporal-spatial queueing model to quantitatively
address some typical congestion patterns that were observed around on/off-ramps. In …

Queue length is an important index of the efficiency of urban transport system. The
traditional approaches seem insufficient for the estimation of the queue length when the …
