An extended car following approach using agent based model on evacuation system of micro traffic

We proposed an extended car-following approach on evacuation system of micro traffic. It is based on the agent model. Parameter which is owned by the agent is the velocity. We added one driving behavior in the car-following a smart driver. Characteristics of smart driver he has a concern for the distance between his vehicle with the vehicle in front of him so that he will change the speed based on aforementioned conditions. Smart driver is determined randomly, and he can become an agent. In the simulation, we observed the evacuation time toward the smart driver and the mean speed respectively based on the number of agents.

Coupled-Map Modeling of One-Dimensional Traffic Flow

We propose a new model of one-dimensional traffic flow using a coupled map lattice. In the model, each vehicle is assigned a map and changes its velocity according to it. A single map is designed so as to represent the motion of a vehicle properly, and the maps are coupled to each other through the headway distance. By simulating the model, we obtain a plot of the flow against the concentration similar to the observed data in real traffic flows. Realistic traffic jam regions are observed in space-time trajectories.Comment: 5 postscript figures available upon reques
