Theoretical vs. Empirical Classification and Prediction of Congested Traffic States
Dirk Helbing, Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting +1
Starting from the instability diagram of a traffic flow model, we derive conditions for the occurrence of congested traffic states, their appearance, their spreading in space and t…
Agents for Traffic Simulation
Arne Kesting, Martin Treiber, Dirk Helbing
Vehicular traffic is a classical example of a multi-agent system in which autonomous drivers operate in a shared environment. The article provides an overview of the state-of-the-a…
Estimating Acceleration and Lane-Changing Dynamics Based on NGSIM Trajectory Data
Christian Thiemann, Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting
The NGSIM trajectory data sets provide longitudinal and lateral positional information for all vehicles in certain spatiotemporal regions. Velocity and acceleration information can…
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…
Understanding widely scattered traffic flows, the capacity drop, platoons, and times-to-collision as effects of variance-driven time gaps
Martin Treiber, Arne Kesting, Dirk Helbing
We investigate the adaptation of the time headways in car-following models as a function of the local velocity variance, which is a measure of the inhomogeneity of traffic flow. We…
