In this work, the individual difference of the honk effect is explored on two lanes via traffic modeling of the lattice model under Vehicle to X (V2X) environment. We study the impact of individual difference corresponding to honk cases on traffic stability through linear stability analysis for a two-lane highway. Furthermore, the mKdV equation under the lane changing phenomena is conducted via nonlinear analysis. Simulation cases for the early time and longtime impact reveal that individual difference of driving characteristics has a distinct impact on two lanes under the whistling environment.

A modified lattice hydrodynamic model is proposed, in which the impact of strong wind and the optimal estimation of flux difference integral are simultaneously analyzed. Based on the control theory, the stability condition is acquired through linear analysis. The modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation is derived via nonlinear analysis, in order to express a description of the evolution of density waves. Then, numerical simulation is conducted. From the simulation results, strong wind can largely influence the traffic flow stability. The stronger the wind becomes, the more stable the traffic flow is, to some extent. Similarly, the optimal estimation of flux difference integral also contributes to stabilizing traffic flow. The simulation results show no difference compared with the theoretical findings. In conclusion, the new model is able to make the traffic flow more stable.

Abstract In this work, the equilibrium optimal flux deviation is explored as a control signal under V2X environment via traffic modeling of the lattice hydrodynamic model. According to the control theory, the sufficient stable condition can be deduced. In addition, numerical simulation is implemented for the early time impact, the steady-state effect, and the hysteresis phenomenon of traffic flow with the increase of the feedback gain response to the equilibrium optimal flux deviation. The result demonstrates that the equilibrium optimal flux deviation effect has significantly positive influence on the stability of the traffic flow.

Connected vehicles are expected to become commercially available by the next decade, while traffic interruption is not uncommon in the real traffic environment. In this paper, we propose a feedback control method for lattice hydrodynamic model considering the traffic interruption probability effect. The stability criterion of the new model is explored through linear stability analysis of transfer function. When the stability conditions are not satisfied, a delay feedback controller is used to control the discharging flow to suppress traffic congestion. The impact of gain coefficient and delay time on the performance is discussed. We verify the effectiveness of the devised delay feedback controller by simulations. Results show that the traffic interruption probability effect has a considerable impact on the stability of traffic flow, while the controller is effective in suppressing traffic congestion.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore how curved road and lane-changing rates affect the stability of traffic flow. Design/methodology/approach An extended two-lane lattice hydrodynamic model on a curved road accounting for the empirical lane-changing rate is presented. The linear analysis of the new model is discussed, the stability condition and the neutral stability condition are obtained. Also, the mKdV equation and its solution are proposed through nonlinear analysis, which discusses the stability of the extended model in the unstable region. Furthermore, the results of theoretical analysis are verified by numerical simulation. Findings The empirical lane-changing rate on a curved road is an important factor, which can alleviate traffic congestion. Research limitations/implications This paper does not take into account the factors such as slope, the drivers’ characters and so on in the actual traffic, which will have more or less influence on the stability of traffic flow, so there is still a certain gap with the real traffic environment. Originality/value The curved road and empirical lane-changing rate are researched simultaneously in a two-lane lattice hydrodynamic models in this paper. The improved model can better reflect the actual traffic, which can also provide a theoretical reference for the actual traffic governance.
