The Intelligent Driver Model with Stochasticity -- New Insights Into Traffic Flow Oscillations
Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting
Traffic flow oscillations, including traffic waves, are a common yet incompletely understood feature of congested traffic. Possible mechanisms include traffic flow instabilities, i…
Automatic and efficient driving strategies while approaching a traffic light
Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting
Vehicle-infrastructure communication opens up new ways to improve traffic flow efficiency at signalized intersections. In this study, we assume that equipped vehicles can obtain in…
Microscopic Calibration and Validation of Car-Following Models -- A Systematic Approach
Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting
Calibration and validation techniques are crucial in assessing the descriptive and predictive power of car-following models and their suitability for analyzing traffic flow. Using…
From Drivers to Athletes -- Modeling and Simulating Cross-Country Sking Marathons
Martin Treiber, Ralph Germ, Arne Kesting
Traffic flow of athletes in classic-style cross-country ski marathons, with the Swedish Vasaloppet as prominent example, represents a non-vehicular system of driven particles with…
