Recurrent and nonrecurrent congestion on freeways may be alleviated if today's"
spontaneous" infrastructure utilization is replaced by an orderly, controllable operation via …

Urban transportation system is a large complex nonlinear system. It consists of surface-way
networks, freeway networks, and ramps with a mixed traffic flow of vehicles, bicycles, and …

During the past half century, modern control theory has developed greatly and many
branches and subfields have emerged, for example, linear system theory, optimal control …

Traffic congestion in urban road and freeway networks leads to a strong degradation of the
network infrastructure and accordingly reduced throughput, which can be countered via …

This paper discusses the optimal coordination of variable speed limits and ramp metering in
a freeway traffic network, where the objective of the control is to minimize the total time that …

Conventional reinforcement learning (RL) models of variable speed limit (VSL) control
systems (and traffic control systems in general) cannot be trained in real traffic process …

The impact of variable speed limits (VSL) on aggregate traffic flow behaviour on motorways
is shown to bear similarities to the impact of ramp metering, in particular, when addressing …

Freeway traffic control is a broad research area, not only interesting for its applicative
perspective, but also highly motivating for theoretical investigations. This research topic has …

Currently most optimization methods for urban transport networks (i) are suited for networks
with simplified dynamics that are far from real-sized networks or (ii) apply decentralized …

The onramp metering control problem is posed using a cell transmission-like model called
the asymmetric cell transmission model (ACTM). The problem formulation captures both …
