We study the fundamental diagram for traffic flow of vehicular mixture on a multi-lane highway. We present the car-following model of multi-lane traffic in which slow and fast vehicles flow with changing lanes. We investigate the traffic states of the vehicular mixture under the periodic...

We present the stochastic model for queueing at two tollgates with line changing of vehicles to take into account fluctuating inflow and outflow. We study the jam formation and its transition in front of two tollgates on a highway. The line changing between two queues of vehicles has an...

The car-following model of traffic is extended to mimic bus behavior in the bus route. We study the phase transitions and bunching in the bus route model by both simulation and linear stability analysis. It is found that the jamming transitions among an inhomogeneous bunching phase, the...

The effect of accelerating stepwise on the jamming transition is investigated in the extended car-following model. The optimal velocity function is modified to take into account accelerating stepwise vehicles. It is shown that the multiple phase transitions occur on varying the car density. The...

We study the effect of gravitational force upon traffic flow on a highway with sag, uphill, and downhill. We extend the optimal velocity model to take into account the gravitational force which acts on vehicles as an external force. We study the traffic states and jamming transitions induced by...

We study the traffic states and jams induced by a slowdown of vehicles in a single lane highway. We use an extended one of the optimal velocity model to take into account the slowdown in a section of highway. The fundamental (flow-density) diagram is calculated. The flow (current) increases...

We study the mixing of vehicles on a two-lane highway in Hurricane evacuation. We present the deterministic model of two-lane traffic in which vehicles change the lane by a deterministic rule. We investigate the typical traffic induced by a slow vehicle on the first lane under the open boundary....

We study the traffic states and queuing occurring in traffic flow on a toll highway with multi-lane tollgates. The traffic states change with increasing density and varying number of tollgates. When the manual-collection vehicles sort themselves into the tollgates, the queues occur just in front...

We study the traffic jams appearing on a single-lane highway with a few slowdown sections. At low density, the flow (current) increases linearly with density, while it saturates at some values of intermediate density. In such case that some slowdown sections have the same speed limit, when the...

We study the traffic states and jams induced by a slowdown of vehicles in a single-lane highway. The two-stage optimal velocity model is used in which the optimal velocity function has two turning points. The fundamental (flow-density) diagrams are calculated. At low density, the flow (current)...
