Characteristics of ant-inspired traffic flow: Applying the social insect metaphor to traffic models
Alexander John, Andreas Schadschneider, Debashish Chowdhury +1
We investigate the organization of traffic flow on preexisting uni- and bidirectional ant trails. Our investigations comprise a theoretical as well as an empirical part. We propose…
Disordered driven lattice gases with boundary reservoirs and Langmuir kinetics
Philip Greulich, Andreas Schadschneider
The asymmetric simple exclusion process with additional Langmuir kinetics, i.e. attachment and detachment in the bulk, is a paradigmatic model for intracellular transport. Here we…
Single-Bottleneck Approximation for Driven Lattice Gases with Disorder and Open Boundary Conditions
Philip Greulich, Andreas Schadschneider
We investigate the effects of disorder on driven lattice gases with open boundaries using the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process as a paradigmatic example. Disorder is rea…
Phase diagram and edge effects in the ASEP with bottlenecks
Philip Greulich, Andreas Schadschneider
We investigate the totally asymmetric simple exclusion process (TASEP) in the presence of a bottleneck, i.e. a sequence of consecutive defect sites with reduced hopping rate. The i…
