Traffic flow

In mathematics and transportation engineering, traffic flow is the study of interactions between travellers (including pedestrians, cyclists, drivers, and their vehicles) and infrastructure (including highways, signage, and traffic control devices), with the aim of understanding and developing an optimal transport network with efficient movement of traffic and minimal traffic congestion problems. (Wikipedia).

Volume Flow Rate & Mass Flow Rate - Fluid Dynamics Physics Problems

This physics video tutorial provides a basic introduction into mass flow rate and volume flow rate. The mass flow rate is the change in mass per unit time. It is also equal to the product of the fluid density, cross sectional area and the speed of the fluid in a pipe. The volume flow ra

How Do Traffic Signals Work?

Traffic management in dense urban areas is an extremely complex problem with a host of conflicting goals and challenges. One of the most fundamental of those challenges happens at an intersection, where multiple streams of traffic - including vehicles, bikes and pedestrians - need to safel

Simone Göttlich: Traffic flow models with non-local flux and extensions to networks

We present a Godunov type numerical scheme for a class of scalar conservation laws with nonlocal flux arising for example in traffic flow modeling. The scheme delivers more accurate solutions than the widely used Lax-Friedrichs type scheme and also allows to show well-posedness of the mode

The Problem of Traffic: A Mathematical Modeling Journey

How can we mathematically model traffic? Specifically we will study the problem of a single lane of cars and the perturbation from equilibrium that occurs when one car brakes, and that braking effect travels down the line of cars, amplifying as it goes along, due to the delayed reaction ti
