Optimization potential of a real highway network: an empirical study
Wolfgang Knospe, Ludger Santen, Andreas Schadschneider +1
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. He…

CA Models for Traffic Flow: Comparison with Empirical Single-Vehicle Data
W. Knospe, L. Santen, A. Schadschneider +1
Although traffic simulations with cellular-automata models give meaningful results compared with empirical data, highway traffic requires a more detailed description of the element…

Disorder Effects in CA-Models for Traffic Flow
W. Knospe, L. Santen, A. Schadschneider +1
We investigate the effect of quenched disorder in the Nagel-Schreckenberg model of traffic flow. Spatial inhomogenities, i.e. lattice sites where the braking probability is enlarge…
