In this work, a type of the evolution network is constructed in the evolution process of traffic flow. We study the influence of the traffic dynamics on the structural properties of the evolution network, and measure the probability distributions and scaling properties of the network. The...

Usually there are multi-lane on the main road of the on-ramp system. The drivers may decelerate for more safety when they are near the on-ramp. In addition, the car velocity may be restricted according to the traffic regulation. In this paper, we study phenomenon using the cellular automata...

In this work, we propose and study a model for the diffusion of congestion in complex networks. According to the proposed model, the level of congestion on each node will be self-organized into the same value. The diffusion of congestion throughout various networks with different topologies is...

In this paper, we use a two-lane CA model to investigate the effect of a bus stop between two neighbouring intersections on the capacity of the bus. Both the case of a bus stop with a special stopping lane and that of one without are considered. The capacity versus the distance LB(LD) between...

In this paper, we investigate the on-ramp system on the highway using cellular automaton traffic model. Different from previous work, we introduce traffic signal to control the vehicle flows on the main road and the on-ramp. A method of signal controlling is presented, and the update rule in...

An alternative floor field (FF) model is proposed by incorporating the agitated behavior and elastic characteristics of pedestrians. The agitated behavior which is regarded as an important factor to pedestrian dynamics is depicted by introducing a parameter to revise the transition probability...

We investigate and analyse an optimal traffic network structure for resisting traffic congestion with different volumes of traffic. For this aim, we introduce a cost function and user-equilibrium assignment (UE) which ensures the flow balance on traffic systems. Our finding is that an optimal...

The aim of this work is to investigate the combined effect of the signalized intersection and its near-by bus stop, by using a two-lane CA model. Four cases that the stop locates upstream or downstream the intersection, and ones with the special stop lane or not are considered. The effect of the...

The synchronized flow traffic phase of Kerner’s three-phase traffic theory can be well reproduced by the model proposed by Jiang and Wu [R. Jiang, Q.S. Wu, J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 36 (2003) 381]. But in the Jiang and Wu model, the rule for brake light–after switching on, the brake light will...

We study the dynamical properties of transportation considering the topology structure of networks and congestion effects, based on a proposed simple model. We analyze the behavior of the model for finding out the relationship between the properties of transportation and the structure of...
