Summary In this paper we describe a relation between a microscopic stochastic traffic cellular automaton model (i.e., the STCA) and the macroscopic first-order continuum model (i.e., the LWR model). The innovative aspect is that we explicitly incorporate the STCA's stochasticity in the construction of the fundamental diagram used by the LWR model. We apply our methodology to a small case study, giving...
In this paper the importance of alternative routes for the robustness of a road network is examined. A case study for the area of Rotterdam in the Netherlands showed that if nobody is informed about an incident on the motorways and/or nobody has the opportunity to change their routes, delays of more than one hour can easily occur. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that it is beneficial to have at least...
This paper presents a numerical solution method for a dynamic network loading (DNL) model that is consistent with the first order kinematics wave theory. The multi-commodity link transmission model (MC LTM) determines time-dependent link volumes, link travel times and route travel times on a traffik network, given the time-dependent route flow rates. Compared to existing cell transmission models,...
