Efficient Intersection Control for Minimally Guided Vehicles: A Self-Organised and Decentralized Approach
Bo Yang, Christopher Monterola
An important question for the practical applicability of the highly efficient traffic intersection control is about the minimal level of intelligence the vehicles need to have so a…
Microscopic Statistical Characterisation of the Congested Traffic Flow and Some Salient Empirical Features
Bo Yang, Ji Wei Yoon, Christopher Monterola
We present large scale and detailed analysis of the microscopic empirical data of the traffic flow, focusing on the non-linear interactions between the vehicles when the traffic is…
Non-linear Dynamics, Emergent Behaviors and Controlled Expansions: Towards Effective Modeling of the Congested Traffic
Bo Yang, Xihua Xu, John Z. F. Pang +1
We propose a framework for constructing microscopic traffic models from microscopic acceleration patterns that can in principle be experimental measured and proper averaged. The ex…
Classification and Unification of the Microscopic Deterministic Traffic Models with Identical Drivers
Bo Yang, Christopher Monterola
We show that all existing deterministic microscopic traffic models with identical drivers (including both two-phase and three-phase models) can be understood as special cases from…
An Effective Model for Traffic Dynamics and the Nature of the Congested Phase
Bo Yang, Christopher Monterola
A simple algorithm for constructing an effective traffic model is presented. The algorithm uses statistically well-defined quantities extracted from the flow-density plot, and the…
Avalanche Statistics of Driven Granular Slides in a Miniature Mound
D. E. Juanico, A. Longjas, R. Batac +1
We examine avalanche statistics of rain- and vibration-driven granular slides in miniature sand mounds. A crossover from power-law to non power-law avalanche-size statistics is dem…
