Macroscopic traffic flow models are of paramount importance to traffic surveillance and
control. Before their employments in applications, the models need to be calibrated and …

First-order traffic flow models of the LWR (Lighthill-Whitham-Richards) type are known for
their simplicity and computational efficiency and have, for this reason, been widely used for …

The onramp metering control problem is posed using a cell transmission-like model called
the asymmetric cell transmission model (ACTM). The problem formulation captures both …

This article proposes a new approach for computing a semi-explicit form of the solution to a
class of Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) partial differential equations (PDEs), using control techniques …

The paper characterizes the behavior of the cell transmission model of a freeway, divided
into N sections or cells, each with one on-ramp and one off-ramp. The state of the dynamical …

Fundamental diagrams (FDs) are the basis of traffic flow theory. Efficient model calibration
from noisy traffic data is essential to identify the parameters of FDs to describe the traffic flow …

In this article, we propose a computational method for solving the Lighthill–Whitham–
Richards (LWR) partial differential equation (PDE) semi-analytically for arbitrary piecewise …

In the conventional human driving environment, due to poor traffic information transmission
and the inability to actively control vehicles, variable speed limits (VSLs) and ramp metering …

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of a dynamic approach to classifying flow
patterns reconstructed by a switching-mode macroscopic flow model considering a …

This paper studies the development of macroscopic freeway traffic models and parameter
calibration methodologies that are computationally efficient and suitable for use in real-time …
