Noise-induced stop-and-go traffic dynamics: Modelling and control
Raphael Korbmacher, Parthib Khound, Antoine Tordeux +1
Stop-and-go waves in traffic flow are captivating collective phenomena with important safety and environmental consequences. While classical theories attribute these oscillations t…
Emergent Cooperative Driving Strategies for Stop-and-Go Wave Mitigation via Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
Raphael Korbmacher, Daniel Straub, Antoine Tordeux +1
Stop-and-go waves in traffic flow pose a persistent challenge, compromising safety, efficiency, and environmental sustainability. This paper introduces a novel mitigation strategy…
Exploring Dense Crowd Dynamics: State of the Art and Emerging Paradigms
Thomas Chatagnon, Antoine Tordeux, Mohcine Chraibi
Dense pedestrian crowds may pose significant safety risks, yet their underlying dynamics remain insufficiently understood to reliably prevent accidents. In these environments, phys…
Understanding Collective Stability of ACC Systems: From Theory to Real-World Observations
Raphael Korbmacher, Parthib Khound, Antoine Tordeux
Autonomated vehicles (AVs) are expected to have a profound impact on society, with high expectations for their potential benefits. One key anticipated benefit is the reduction of t…
System Reliability Engineering in the Age of Industry 4.0: Challenges and Innovations
Antoine Tordeux, Tim M. Julitz, Isabelle Müller +6
In the era of Industry 4.0, system reliability engineering faces both challenges and opportunities. On the one hand, the complexity of cyber-physical systems, the integration of no…
Dense Crowd Dynamics and Pedestrian Trajectories: A Multiscale Field Study at the Fête des Lumières in Lyon
Oscar Dufour, Huu-Tu Dang, Jakob Cordes +5
We present one of the first comprehensive field datasets capturing dense pedestrian dynamics across multiple scales, ranging from macroscopic crowd flows over distances of several…
