Simple cellular automata models are able to reproduce the basic properties of highway traffic. The comparison with empirical data for microscopic quantities requires a more detailed description of the elementary dynamics. Based on existing cellular automata models we propose an improved discrete model incorporating anticipation effects, reduced acceleration capabilities and an enhanced interaction horizon for braking. The modified model is able to reproduce the three phases (free-flow, synchronized, and stop-and-go) observed in real traffic. Furthermore we find a good agreement with detailed empirical single-vehicle data in all phases.

A two-lane extension of a recently proposed cellular automaton model for traffic flow is discussed. The analysis focuses on the reproduction of the lane usage inversion and the density dependence of the number of lane changes. It is shown that the si
ngle-lane dynamics can be extended to the two-lane case without changing the basic properties of the model which are known to be in good agreement with empirical single-vehicle data. Therefore it is possible to reproduce various empirically observed two-lane phenomena, like the synchronization of the lanes, without fine-tuning of the model parameters.
Tolls are collected on many highways as a means of traffic control and revenue generation. However, the presence of tollbooths on highway surely slows down traffic flow. Here, we investigate how the presence of tollbooths affect the average car speed
using a simple-minded single lane deterministic discrete traffic model. More importantly, the model is exactly solvable.
We study the microscopic time fluctuations of traffic-load and the global statistical properties of a dense traffic of particles on scale-free cyclic graphs. For a wide range of driving rates $R$ the traffic is stationary and the load timeseries exhi
bit anti-persistence due to the regulatory role of the super-structure associated with two hub nodes in the network. We discuss how the super-structure effects the functioning of the network at high traffic density and at the jamming threshold. The degree of correlations systematically decreases with increasing traffic density and eventually disappears when approaching a jamming density $R_c$. Already before jamming we observe qualitative changes in the global network-load distributions and the particle queuing-times. These changes are related to the occurrence of temporary crises in which the network-load increases dramatically, and then slowly falls back to a value characterizing free-flow.
In this paper we present a self-contained macroscopic description of diffusive systems interacting with boundary reservoirs and under the action of external fields. The approach is based on simple postulates which are suggested by a wide class of mic
roscopic stochastic models where they are satisfied. The description however does not refer in any way to an underlying microscopic dynamics: the only input required are transport coefficients as functions of thermodynamic variables, which are experimentally accessible. The basic postulates are local equilibrium which allows a hydrodynamic description of the evolution, the Einstein relation among the transport coefficients, and a variational principle defining the out of equilibrium free energy. Associated to the variational principle there is a Hamilton-Jacobi equation satisfied by the free energy, very useful for concrete calculations. Correlations over a macroscopic scale are, in our scheme, a generic property of nonequilibrium states. Correlation functions of any order can be calculated from the free energy functional which is generically a non local functional of thermodynamic variables. Special attention is given to the notion of equilibrium state from the standpoint of nonequilibrium.
Empirical observations and theoretical studies indicate that the overall travel-time of vehicles in a traffic network can be optimized by means of ramp metering control systems. Here, we present an analysis of traffic data of the highway network of N
orth-Rhine-Westfalia in order to identify and characterize the sections of the network which limit the performance, i.e., the bottlenecks. It is clarified whether the bottlenecks are of topological nature or if they are constituted by on-ramps. This allows to judge possible optimization mechanisms and reveals in which areas of the network they have to be applied.
