Description
Summary:"TRB's Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2390 consists of 15 papers that explore macroscopic fundamental diagrams for urban streets and mixed traffic; variable speed limit control; the modeling of drivers' car-following behavior; spatiotemporal link speed correlations; comparing calibrated shared space simulation model with real-life data; green light optimized speed advisory systems; and simulations of left-turn blockages inside intersections. This issue of the TRR also examines inhomogeneous flow patterns in undersaturated road networks; using mobile probe data and the macroscopic fundamental diagram to estimate network densities; Gaussian process metamodels for sensitivity analysis of traffic simulation models; a multistep method for vehicle trajectory reconstruction; model-based traffic congestion control in urban road networks; double-parking impacts on traffic and environmental conditions; a new car-following model; and observable chaotic maps for queuing analysis."--publisher's info.
"TRB's Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 2391 consists of 14 pages that explore modeling and assessment of local perturbations; speed synchronization process of merging vehicles from the entrance ramp; estimation of arterial travel time from automatic number plate recognition data; data-fitted first-order traffic models and their second-order generalizations; the hysteresis and capacity drop phenomena in freeway networks. This issue of the TRR also examines travel time reliability; speed harmonization; connecting network-wide travel time reliability with the network fundamental diagram of traffic flow; the calibration of traffic flow models; a new consistency index; a macroscopic lane-changing model; microscopic traffic flow properties in emergency situations; a generalized macroscopic fundamental diagram for urban freeways; and an estimation of real-time traffic state along signalized arterial corridors."--publisher's info.
