S Dorokhin, A Artemov, D Likhachev… - IOP Conference …, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
The constant increase in the number of cars in cities causes transportation problems that
make it necessary to optimize the road network so as to satisfy the transport needs of the …

Self-control of traffic lights and vehicle flows in urban road networks

S Lämmer, D Helbing - Journal of Statistical Mechanics: Theory …, 2008 - iopscience.iop.org
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 …

Characterizing traffic time series based on complex network theory

J Tang, Y Wang, F Liu - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its …, 2013 - Elsevier
A complex network is a powerful tool to research complex systems, traffic flow being one of
the most complex systems. In this paper, we use complex network theory to study traffic time …

Dynamic analysis of traffic time series at different temporal scales: A complex networks approach

J Tang, Y Wang, H Wang, S Zhang, F Liu - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics …, 2014 - Elsevier
The analysis of dynamics in traffic flow is an important step to achieve advanced traffic
management and control in Intelligent Transportation System (ITS). Complexity and …

Multiple-vehicle collision in traffic flow by a sudden slowdown

N Sugiyama, T Nagatani - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its …, 2013 - Elsevier
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 …

Real-time traffic jams prediction inspired by Biham, Middleton and Levine (BML) model

W Hu, L Yan, H Wang, B Du, D Tao - Information Sciences, 2017 - Elsevier
Urban traffic jams severely affect many cities around the world. Therefore, there is an urgent
need for accurate prediction of traffic jams in real time. With many existing approaches, it is …

Effect of gravitational force upon traffic flow with gradients

K Komada, S Masukura, T Nagatani - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and …, 2009 - Elsevier
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 …

Traffic games: modeling freeway traffic with game theory

LE Cortés-Berrueco, C Gershenson, CR Stephens - PLoS one, 2016 - journals.plos.org
We apply game theory to a vehicular traffic model to study the effect of driver strategies on
traffic flow. The resulting model inherits the realistic dynamics achieved by a two-lane traffic …

[HTML][HTML] Quantification of chaos in a time series generated from a traffic flow model using the extended entropic chaos degree

K Inoue, K Tani - Chaos, Solitons & Fractals, 2023 - Elsevier
Several Traffic flow models have been proposed to address the underlying causes of traffic
congestion and develop effective methods for its suppression. Typically, these models are …

Traffic flow through multi-lane tollbooths on a toll highway

K Komada, T Nagatani - Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its …, 2010 - Elsevier
We study the traffic states and queuing occurring in traffic flow on a toll highway with multi-
lane tollgates. The traffic states change with increasing density and varying number of …
