The essential distinction between the Fundamental Diagram Approach (FDA) and Kerner’s three-phase theory (KTPT) is the existence of a unique gap–speed (or flow–density) relationship in the former class. In order to verify this relationship, empirical data are analyzed with the following...

The highway network design problem deals with the selection of links from a base network to facilitate the flow of vehicles from origins to destinations. A proper selection of links requires a balance between minimization of travel costs from origins to destinations and minimization of costs...

Dynamic traffic assignment and observed traffic counts are used to estimate the distribution of departure times in an urban area trip matrix. The objective is to find the maximum entropy distribution of departure times by origin zone subject to observed traffic counts on a subset of network...
