We investigate the dynamic behavior of shuttle buses when passengers switch to another bus B on route B from bus A on route A. By switching from bus A to bus B, the outflow of passengers from route A (inflow of passengers into route B) changes to the periodic inflow of a square wave. The...

We study the dynamical phase transitions in the elevator traffic during the morning peak period. We apply the coupled nonlinear map model to the dynamics of M elevators. We investigate the effect of elevator's number M on the dynamical transition. It is shown that the dynamical transitions occur...

When a vehicle moves through a series of green lights, avoiding red signals in a two-dimensional (2d) city traffic network, the vehicle describes a characteristic trajectory (green-light path) and the travel time has a minimal value. The green-light path depends on the cycle time, split,...

We study the dynamical behavior of N vehicles with no passing, but are moving through a sequence of traffic lights on a single-lane highway, where the traffic lights turn on and off periodically with the synchronized strategy. The dynamical model of N vehicles controlled by traffic lights is...

We study the dynamical behavior of a shuttle bus moving through a traffic signal. The dynamics of the bus is expressed in terms of the nonlinear maps. The bus dynamics is controlled by varying the loading parameter, the cycle time of signal, and the degree of speedup. We show the dependence of...

We study the dynamic behavior of an elevator induced by a periodic inflow of passengers. An elevator schedule is closely related to the dynamics. We present the modified circle map model for the dynamics of the elevator traffic. The motion of the elevator depends on both loading parameter and...

We study the dynamical behavior and transitions of shuttle buses in a transportation system reducing energy consumption. We present the nonlinear-map model for the dynamics of M buses. The motion of shuttle buses depends on the loading parameter and the number. The dependence of the fixed points...
