A new stochastic cellular automaton model on traffic flow and its jamming phase transition
Satoshi Sakai, Katsuhiro Nishinari, Shinji Iida
A general stochastic traffic cellular automaton (CA) model, which includes slow-to-start effect and driver's perspective, is proposed in this paper. It is shown that this model inc…
Collective effects in traffic on bi-directional ant-trails
Alexander John, Andreas Schadschneider, Debashish Chowdhury +1
Motivated by recent experimental work of Burd et al., we propose a model of bi-directional ant-traffic on pre-existing ant-trails. It captures in a simple way some of the generic c…
Self-organized patterns and traffic flow in colonies of organisms: from bacteria and social insects to vertebrates
Debashish Chowdhury, Katsuhiro Nishinari, Andreas Schadschneider
Flocks of birds and schools of fish are familiar examples of spatial patterns formed by living organisms. In contrast to the patterns on the skins of, say, zebra and giraffe, the p…
Anomalous fundamental diagrams in traffic on ant trails
Andreas Schadschneider, Debashish Chowdhury, Alexander John +1
Many insects like ants communicate chemically via chemotaxis. This allows them to build large trail systems which in many respects are similar to human-build highway networks. Usin…
Extended floor field CA model for evacuation dynamics
Katsuhiro Nishinari, Ansgar Kirchner, Alireza Namazi +1
The floor field model, which is a cellular automaton model for studying evacuation dynamics, is investigated and extended. A method for calculating the static floor field, which de…
