People don't use the shortest path
Zhu, Shanjiang; Levinson, David - Networks, Economics and Urban Systems Research Group … - 2009
Most recent route choice models, following either Random Utility Maximization or rule-based paradigm, require explicit enumeration of feasible routes. The quality of model estimation and prediction is sensitive to the appropriateness of consideration set. However, few empirical studies of...

Dispersion and scaling of fluctuating vehicles through a sequence of traffic lights
Nagatani, Takashi - In: Physica A: Statistical Mechanics and its Applications 361 (2006) 2, pp. 619-629
We study the dynamical behavior of vehicles moving with fluctuating speed through a sequence of traffic lights which … are controlled by the synchronized strategy. The dynamics of fluctuating vehicular traffic controlled by traffic lights is … described in terms of the stochastic nonlinear map. We study two kinds of traffic: case (A) in which vehicles are allowed to …
