Traffic Overflow Modeling and Numerical Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Traffic overflow has great negative impact on normal traffic flow. Improper time setting and offset, even more right turn input traffic flow can cause this extreme phenomenon. In order to discover the intrinsic factor and relationship between overflow and signal setting, traffic flow incoming, we build the traffic flow model. This model takes two adjacent crosses as example, and to count the remained traffic flow queue length in given time interval. The simulation results prove our model’s feasibility. Our model well helps us to understand the overflow characteristics and to find the effective solution to conquer it in the future.
