We study vehicular traffic on a road with multiple lanes and dense, unidirectional traffic following the traditional Lighthill-Whitham-Richards model where the velocity in each lane depends only on the density in the same lane. The model assumes that the tendency of drivers to change to a neighboring lane is proportional to the difference in velocity between the lanes. The model allows for an arbitrary number of lanes, each with its distinct velocity function. The resulting model is a well-posed weakly coupled system of hyperbolic conservation laws with a Lipschitz continuous source. We show several relevant bounds for solutions of this model that are not valid for general weakly coupled systems. Furthermore, by taking an appropriately scaled limit as the number of lanes increases, we derive a model describing a continuum of lanes, and show that the $N$-lane model converges to a weak solution of the continuum model.

We study the application of a recently introduced hierarchical description of traffic flow control by driver-assist vehicles to include lane changing dynamics. Lane-dependent feedback control strategies are implemented at the level of vehicles and th e aggregate trends are studied by means of Boltzmann-type equations determining three different hydrodynamics based on the lane switching frequency. System of first order macroscopic equations describing the evolution of densities along the lanes are then consistently determined through a suitable closured strategy. Numerical examples are then presented to illustrate the features of the proposed hierarchical approach.
The goal of this paper is to derive rigorously macroscopic traffic flow models from microscopic models. More precisely, for the microscopic models, we consider follow-the-leader type models with different types of drivers and vehicles which are distr ibuted randomly on the road. After a rescaling, we show that the cumulative distribution function converge to the solution of a macroscopic model. We also make the link between this macroscopic model and the so-called LWR model.
In the so-called microscopic models of vehicular traffic, attention is paid explicitly to each individual vehicle each of which is represented by a particle; the nature of the interactions among these particles is determined by the way the vehicles i nfluence each others movement. Therefore, vehicular traffic, modeled as a system of interacting particles driven far from equilibrium, offers the possibility to study various fundamental aspects of truly nonequilibrium systems which are of current interest in statistical physics. Analytical as well as numerical techniques of statistical physics are being used to study these models to understand rich variety of physical phenomena exhibited by vehicular traffic. Some of these phenomena, observed in vehicular traffic under different circumstances, include transitions from one dynamical phase to another, criticality and self-organized criticality, metastability and hysteresis, phase-segregation, etc. In this critical review, written from the perspective of statistical physics, we explain the guiding principles behind all the main theoretical approaches. But we present detailed discussions on the results obtained mainly from the so-called particle-hopping models, particularly emphasizing those which have been formulated in recent years using the language of cellular automata.
We consider the simple exclusion process on Z x {0, 1}, that is, an horizontal ladder composed of 2 lanes. Particles can jump according to a lane-dependent translation-invariant nearest neighbour jump kernel, i.e. horizontally along each lane, and ve rtically along the scales of the ladder. We prove that generically, the set of extremal invariant measures consists of (i) translation-invariant product Bernoulli measures; and, modulo translations along Z: (ii) at most two shock measures (i.e. asymptotic to Bernoulli measures at $pm$$infty$) with asymptotic densities 0 and 2; (iii) at most three shock measures with a density jump of magnitude 1. We fully determine this set for certain parameter values. In fact, outside degenerate cases, there is at most one shock measure of type (iii). The result can be partially generalized to vertically cyclic ladders with arbitrarily many lanes. For the latter, we answer an open question of [5] about rotational invariance of stationary measures.
We introduce a formalism to deal with the microscopic modeling of vehicular traffic on a road network. Traffic on each road is uni-directional, and the dynamics of each vehicle is described by a Follow-the-Leader model. From a mathematical point of v iew, this amounts to define a system of ordinary differential equations on an arbitrary network. A general existence and uniqueness result is provided, while priorities at junctions are shown to hinder the stability of solutions. We investigate the occurrence of the Braess paradox in a time-dependent setting within this model. The emergence of Nash equilibria in a non-stationary situation results in the appearance of Braess type paradoxes, and this is supported by numerical simulations.
