Modeling, simulation, and optimization of traffic flow networks

M Herty, A Klar - SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing, 2003 - SIAM
A new model for highway traffic networks based on a detailed description of the junctions is
presented. To obtain suitable conditions at the junctions, multilane equations are introduced …

[HTML][HTML] The Aw–Rascle vehicular traffic flow model with phase transitions

P Goatin - Mathematical and computer modelling, 2006 - Elsevier
We introduce a new model of vehicular traffic flow with phase transitions. The model is
obtained by coupling together the classical Lighthill–Whitham–Richards equation with the …

Optimal control for traffic flow networks

M Gugat, M Herty, A Klar, G Leugering - Journal of optimization theory and …, 2005 - Springer
We consider traffic flow models for road networks where the flow is controlled at the nodes of
