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
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
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
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
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
