A bidimensional cellular automaton model is used to simulate the process of evacuation of
pedestrians in a room with fixed obstacles. A floor field is defined so that moving to a cell …

Based on fluid-dynamic and many-particle (car-following) simulations of traffic flows in
(urban) networks, we study the problem of coordinating incompatible traffic flows at …

One of the core assumptions in the study of complex systems is that there exist
'universal'features analogous to those that characterize the notion of universality in statistical …

As 'greening'of all aspects of human activity becomes mainstream, transportation science is
also increasingly focused around sustainability. Modal co-existence between motorised and …

The complex behavior that occurs when traffic lights are synchronized is studied. Two
strategies are considered: all lights in phase, and a “green wave” with a propagating green …

We study the multiple-vehicle collision when a vehicle decelerates suddenly in a single-lane
traffic flow. The extended optimal velocity model is used for the vehicular motion to take into …

We present a dynamic model for major traffic jams in urban-scale networks. We investigate
the traffic breakdown in the directed network consisted of cycle graphs when an intersection …

Here we study the possibility of characterizing city transportation in analogy to diffusing
particles. To recreate the dynamics of the vehicles in a city, we use a cellular automata …

We present a network model for traffic flow on multiple-loop lines with a single intersection.
We investigate the macroscopic traffic flow and fundamental diagram in the multiple-loop …

We study the effect of gravitational force upon traffic flow on a highway with gradients, uphill,
and downhill. We extend the optimal velocity model to take into account the gravitational …
