A nonlinear car-following model of highway traffic is considered, which includes the reaction-time delay of drivers. Linear stability analysis shows that the uniform flow equilibrium of the system loses its stability via Hopf bifurcations and thus oscillations can appear. The stability and amplitudes of the oscillations are determined with the help of normal-form calculations of the Hopf bifurcation that also handles the essential translational symmetry of the system. We show that the subcritical case of the Hopf bifurcation occurs robustly, which indicates the possibility of bistability. We also show how these oscillations lead to spatial wave formation as can be observed in real-world traffic flows.

The local reaction-diffusion Lengyel-Epstein system with delay is investigated. By choosingτas bifurcating parameter, we show that Hopf bifurcations occur when time delay crosses a critical value. Moreover, we derive the equation describing the flow on the center manifold; then we give the formula for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcation and the stability of bifurcating periodic solutions. Finally, numerical simulations are performed to support the analytical results and the chaotic behaviors are observed.

A nonlinear car-following model considering memory effect of human drivers is studied by means of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation. We model the memory effect of the response of drivers to the traffic situation for a car-following model by introducing a system variable related to velocity. The memory effect of the drivers is a kind of state-dependent delay. The stability of the car-following model with two kinds of time delay is studied. The hysteresis loop of traffic flow from different initial states is compared. The effect of the maximum time delay on the stability is discussed.

In this paper, regarding the time delay as a bifurcation parameter, the stability and Hopf bifurcation of the model of competition between two species in a turbidostat with Beddington–DeAngelis functional response and discrete delay are studied. The Hopf bifurcations can be shown when the delay crosses the critical value. Furthermore, based on the normal form and the center manifold theorem, the type, stability and other properties of the bifurcating periodic solutions are determined. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to illustrate the results.

We investigate the dynamics of a differential-algebraic bioeconomic model with two time delays. Regarding time delay as a bifurcation parameter, we show that a sequence of Hopf bifurcations occur at the positive equilibrium as the delay increases. Using the theories of normal form and center manifold, we also give the explicit algorithm for determining the direction of the Hopf bifurcations and the stability of the bifurcating periodic solutions. Numerical tests are provided to verify our theoretical analysis.
