The Stability

A microscopic traffic flow model based on the constant-time-headway policy and McRuer’s man-machine crossover model was designed. Automatic control theory concepts were employed in the model formulation. The constant-time-headway policy was used to generate the command model of a human driver’s decision for vehicle acceleration or deceleration. This command is the input signal fed into the driver-vehicle dynamics suggested by the crossover model. The proposed model was mathematically formulated, designed, implemented, and numerically simulated. The stability properties and validity of the proposed model were analyzed on the basis of the simulation results. It was demonstrated that the proposed model can reproduce well-known traffic phenomena such as shock waves, intersection starting and stopping waves, and loop structures of flow-density and speed-density plots.

According to different driving behavioral characteristics of bus drivers, a cellular automata traffic model considering the bus lane changing behavior with scheduling parameters is proposed in this paper. Traffic bottleneck problems caused by bus stops are simulated in multiple lanes roads with no-bay bus stations. With the mixed traffic flow composed of different bus arrival rate, flow-density graph, density distribution graph, and temporal-spatial graph are presented. Furthermore, the mixed traffic flow characteristics are analyzed. Numerical experiment results show that the proposed model can generate a variety of complicated realistic phenomena in the traffic system with bus stops and provide theoretical basis for better using of traffic flow model.

Discrete Mathematical Model

The traffic flows are influenced by various factors. In order to determine the characteristics of traffic flows in response to changing conditions, comprehensive research that is based on the best possible methods for simulating different street situations is necessary. The article determines the influence on transport flows due to changed conditions at the end of the simulated street. It presents the dynamic of the main parameters of the traffic flow (velocity, flow and density) depending on the time of changing traffic signals and the changed traffic flow density at the last simulated street point. The results are based on a discrete, mathematical model of traffic flows. The conditions determined by theoretical investigations determine the negative changes in the dynamics of traffic flows on a simulated street. Santrauka Transporto priemonių srautams turi įtakos įvairūs veiksniai. Norint nustatyti transporto srautų savybes priklausomai nuo pakitusių sąlygų reikalingi išsamūs tyrimai, grindžiami kuo tikslesniais metodais imituojant įvairių situacijų gatvėse modelius. Straipsnyje nustatoma įtaka transporto srautams dėl pakitusių sąlygų modeliuojamos gatvės pabaigoje. Pateikiama transporto srautų pagrindinių parametrų (greičio, eismo intensyvumo ir koncentracijos) dinamika priklausomai nuo šviesoforų signalų perjungimo laiko ir pakitusios transporto srauto koncentracijos paskutiniame modeliuojamos gatvės taške. Rezultatams gauti taikomas diskretinis transporto srautų matematinis modelis. Teoriniais tyrimais nustatytos sąlygos, lemiančios neigiamus pokyčius transporto srautų dinamikai modeliuojamame kelyje.
