In this paper, the nonlinear analysis is conducted for the car-following model with the consideration of the anticipation effect in single line, which was proposed by Peng guanghan. We study the nonlinear characteristics of the model by applying the reductive perturbation method, and drive the Burgers equation, the Korteweg-de-Vries (KDV) equation and the modified Korteweg-de-Vries (MKDV) equation respectively. We find that the above nonlinear equations for this model are identical with those equations for the Full velocity difference model.

In this paper, a modified car-following model is proposed, in which, the weather and road conditions are taken into account. The stability condition of the model is obtained by using the control theory method. We investigated the property of the model using linear and nonlinear analyses. The Kortewegde Vries equation near the neutral stability line and the modified Kortewegde Vries equation around the critical point are derived by applying the reductive perturbation method. The traffic jam could be thus described by the KdV soliton and the kinkanti-kink soliton for the KdV equation and mKdV equation, respectively. Numerical simulations are carried out to verify the model, and good results are obtained with the new model.

In recent years, the influence of drivers' behaviors on traffic flow has attracted considerable attention according to Transportation Cyber Physical Systems. In this paper, an extended car-following model is presented by considering drivers' timid or aggressive characteristics. The impact of drivers' timid or aggressive characteristics on the stability of traffic flow has been analyzed through linear stability theory and nonlinear reductive perturbation method. Numerical simulation shows that the propagating behavior of traffic density waves near the critical point can be described by the kink–antikink soliton of the mKdV equation. The good agreement between the numerical simulation and the analytical results shows that drivers' characteristics play an important role in traffic jamming transition.

In this paper, a new car-following model is proposed by considering driver’s desired velocity according to Transportation Cyber Physical Systems. The effect of driver’s desired velocity on traffic flow has been investigated through linear stability theory and nonlinear reductive perturbation method. The linear stability condition shows that driver’s desired velocity effect can enlarge the stable region of traffic flow. From nonlinear analysis, the Burgers equation and mKdV equation are derived to describe the evolution properties of traffic density waves in the stable and unstable regions respectively. Numerical simulation is carried out to verify the analytical results, which reveals that traffic congestion can be suppressed efficiently by taking driver’s desired velocity effect into account.

Abstract The propagation of electrostatic dust-ion-acoustic nonlinear periodic waves is investigated in dusty plasma wherein electrons follow Kaniadakis distribution. The Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equations are derived by employing reductive perturbation method and their cnoidal wave solutions are analysed. The effect of relevant parameters (viz., κ-deformed parameter κ and dust concentration β) on the dynamics of cnoidal structures is discussed. Further it is found that amplitude of compressive cnoidal waves increases with increasing values of β, while reverse effect is observed in case of rarefactive cnoidal structures with rising values of β. Also κ-deformed parameter κ bears no effect on cnoidal waves associated with KdV equation, whereas κ-deformed parameter κ significantly affects the cnoidal waves associated with mKdV equation.

An extended car-following model is proposed in this paper by using the generalized optimal velocity function and considering the multivelocity differences. The stability condition of the model is derived by using the linear stability theory. From the reductive perturbation method and nonlinear analysis, the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) and modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equations are derived to describe the traffic behaviors near the neutral stability line and around the critical point, respectively. The corresponding soliton wave and kink-antikink soliton solution are used to describe the different traffic jams. It is found that the generalized optimal velocity function and multivelocity differences consideration can further stabilize traffic flow and suppress traffic jams. The theoretical results are well verified through numerical simulations.

In this paper, we propose a new car-following model considering driver’s timid and aggressive characteristics on a gradient highway. Based on the control theory, the linear stability analysis of the model was conducted. It shows that the stability of traffic flow on the gradient highway varies with the drivers’ characteristics and the slope. Adopting nonlinear stability analysis, the Burgers equation and modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) equation are derived to describe the triangular shock waves and kink–antikink waves, respectively. The theoretical and numerical results show that aggressive drivers tend to stabilize traffic flow but timid drivers tend to destabilize traffic flow on a gradient highway both on an uphill situation and on a downhill situation. Moreover, the slope of the road also plays an important role in traffic jamming transition.

In this paper, a new car-following model is proposed by considering the drivers’ aggressive characteristics. The stable condition and the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation are obtained by the linear stability analysis and nonlinear analysis, which show that the drivers’ aggressive characteristics can improve the stability of traffic flow. Furthermore, the numerical results show that the drivers’ aggressive characteristics increase the stable region of traffic flow and can reproduce the evolution and propagation of small perturbation.

In traffic systems, cooperative driving has attracted the researchers’ attention. A lot of works attempt to understand the effects of cooperative driving behavior and/or time delays on traffic flow dynamics for specific traffic flow models. This paper is a new attempt to investigate analyses of linear stability and weak nonlinearity for the general car-following model with consideration of cooperation and time delays. We derive linear stability condition and study how the combinations of cooperation and time delays affect the stability of traffic flow. Burgers’ equation and Korteweg de Vries’ (KdV) equation for car-following model considering cooperation and time delays are derived. Their solitary wave solutions and constraint conditions are concluded. We investigate the property of cooperative optimal velocity (OV) model which estimates the combinations of cooperation and time delays about the evolution of traffic waves using both analytic and numerical methods. The results indicate that delays and cooperation are model-dependent, and cooperative behavior could inhibit the stabilization of traffic flow. Moreover, delays of sensing relative motion are easy to trigger the traffic waves; delays of sensing host vehicle are beneficial to relieve the instability effect to a certain extent.

We developed a new car-following model to investigate the effects of driver anticipation and driver memory on traffic flow. The changes of headway, relative velocity, and driver memory to the vehicle in front are introduced as factors of driver’s anticipation behavior. Linear and nonlinear stability analyses are both applied to study the linear and nonlinear stability conditions of the new model. Through nonlinear analysis a modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation was constructed to describe traffic flow near the traffic near the critical point. Numerical simulation shows that the stability of traffic flow can be effectively enhanced by the effect of driver anticipation and memory. The starting and breaking process of vehicles passing through the signalized intersection considering anticipation and driver memory are presented. All results demonstrate that the AMD model exhibit a greater stability as compared to existing car-following models.

To make full use of the newly available information provided by the intelligent transportation system (ITS), we presented a new car-following model applicable to automated driving control, which will be realized in the near future along with the rapid development of ITS. In this model, the backward-looking effect and the information inputs from multiple leading cars in traffic flow are considered at the same time. The linear stability criterion of this model is obtained using linear stability theory. Furthermore, the nonlinear analysis method is employed to derive the modified Korteweg-de Vries (mKdV) equation, whose kink-antikink soliton solution is then used to describe the occurrence of traffic jamming transitions. The numerical simulation of the presented model is carried out. Both the analytical analysis and numerical simulation show that the traffic jam is suppressed efficiently by just considering the information of two leading cars and a following one.
