Autonomous detection and anticipation of jam fronts from messages propagated by inter-vehicle communication
Martin Schönhof, Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting +1
In this paper, a minimalist, completely distributed freeway traffic information system is introduced. It involves an autonomous, vehicle-based jam front detection, the information…
Efficient Response to Cascading Disaster Spreading
Lubos Buzna, Karsten Peters, Hendrik Ammoser +2
We study the effectiveness of recovery strategies for a dynamic model of failure spreading in networks. These strategies control the distribution of resources based on information…
Analytical Approach to Continuous and Intermittent Bottleneck Flows
Dirk Helbing, Anders Johansson, Joachim Mathiesen +2
We propose a many-particle-inspired theory for granular outflows from a hopper and for the escape dynamics through a bottleneck based on a continuity equation in polar coordinates.…
Decentralised control of material or traffic flows in networks using phase-synchronisation
Stefan Lämmer, Hiroshi Kori, Karsten Peters +1
We present a self-organising, decentralised control method for material flows in networks. The concept applies to networks where time sharing mechanisms between conflicting flows i…
Scaling laws in the spatial structure of urban road networks
Stefan Lämmer, Björn Gehlsen, Dirk Helbing
The urban road networks of the 20 largest German cities have been analysed, based on a detailed database providing the geographical positions as well as the travel-times for networ…
Jam-avoiding adaptive cruise control (ACC) and its impact on traffic dynamics
Arne Kesting, Martin Treiber, Martin Schönhof +2
Adaptive-Cruise Control (ACC) automatically accelerates or decelerates a vehicle to maintain a selected time gap, to reach a desired velocity, or to prevent a rear-end collision. T…
