Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The understanding of empirical traf c congestion occurring on unsignalized mul- lane highways and freeways is a key for effective traf c management, control, or- nization, and other applications of transportation engineering. However, the traf c ow theories and models that dominate up to now in transportation research journals and teaching programs of most universities cannot explain either traf c breakdown or most features of the resulting congested patterns. These theories are also the - sis of most dynamic traf c assignment models and freeway traf c control methods, which therefore are not consistent with features of real traf c. For this reason, the author introduced an alternative traf c ow theory called three-phase traf c theory, which can predict and explain the empirical spatiot- poral features of traf c breakdown and the resulting traf c congestion. A previous book 'The Physics of Traf c' (Springer, Berlin, 2004) presented a discussion of the empirical spatiotemporal features of congested traf c patterns and of three-phase traf c theory as well as their engineering applications. Rather than a comprehensive analysis of empirical and theoretical results in the eld, the present book includes no more empirical and theoretical results than are necessary for the understanding of vehicular traf c on unsignalized multi-lane roads. The main objectives of the book are to present an 'elementary' traf c ow theory and control methods as well as to show links between three-phase traf c t- ory and earlier traf c ow theories. The need for such a book follows from many commentsofcolleaguesmadeafterpublicationofthebook'ThePhysicsofTraf c'.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Understanding Real Traffic | Paradigm Shift in Transportation Science | Boris S. Kerner | Taschenbuch | xix | Englisch | 2022 | Springer | EAN 9783030796044 | Verantwortliche Person für die EU: Springer Verlag GmbH, Tiergartenstr. 17, 69121 Heidelberg, juergen[dot]hartmann[at]springer[dot]com | Anbieter: preigu.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book addresses the reader interested in vehicular traffic phenomena, who have not learned about them before. It presents traffic phenomena like traffic breakdown and the emergence of moving traffic jams by showcasing empirical traffic data measured in real-world traffic. The author explains how these empirical traffic studies have led to the three-phase traffic theory and why this new theory is in conflict with standard traffic theories developed before. Moreover, he presents the reason for the failure of applications of standard traffic theories in real-world traffic and discusses why understanding real traffic has caused a paradigm shift in traffic and transportation science. The book examines why understanding real traffic breakdown is the basis for an explanation for the autonomous driving effects on traffic flow. It shows that understanding real traffic is possible from real-world traffic data without the need of mathematical traffic models. This makes the book intuitive for non-specialists, who can qualitatively understand all the basic features of traffic dynamics. In turn, experienced traffic researchers can grasp concepts and ideas made here easily accessible by the author, one of the leading pioneers in the field of vehicular traffic.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This monograph is devoted to a new approach to an old field of scientific investigation, freeway traffic research. Freeway traffic is an extremely complex spatiotemporal nonlinear dynamic process. For this reason, it is not surprising that empirical traffic pattern features have only recently been sufficiently understood. Such empirical features are in serious conflict with almost all earlier theoretical and model results. Consequently, the author introduced a new traffic flow theory called 'three-phase traffic theory,' which can explain these empirical spatiotemporal traffic patterns. The main focus of this book is a consideration of empirical spatiotemporal traffic pattern features, their engineering applications, and explanations based on the three-phase traffic theory. The book consists of four parts. In Part I, empirical studies of traffic flow patterns, earlier traffic flow theories, and mathematical models are briefly reviewed. Three-phase traffic theory is considered as well. This theory is a qualitative theory. Main ideas and results of the three-phase traffic flow the ory will be introduced and explained without complex mathematical models. This should be suitable for a very broad audience of practical engineers, physicists, and other readers who may not necessarily be specialists in traf fic flow problems, and who may not necessarily have worked in the field of spatiotemporal pattern formation. In Part II, empirical spatiotemporal traffic pattern features are consid ered. A microscopic three-phase traffic theory of these patterns and results of an application of the pattern features to engineering applications are pre sented in Part III and Part IV, respectively.

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book offers a detailed investigation of breakdowns in traffic and transportation networks. It shows empirically that transitions from free flow to so-called synchronized flow, initiated by local disturbances at network bottlenecks, display a nucleation-type behavior: while small disturbances in free flow decay, larger ones grow further and lead to breakdowns at the bottlenecks. Further, it discusses in detail the significance of this nucleation effect for traffic and transportation theories, and the consequences this has for future automatic driving, traffic control, dynamic traffic assignment, and optimization in traffic and transportation networks.Starting from a large volume of field traffic data collected from various sources obtained solely through measurements in real world traffic, the author develops his insights, with an emphasis less on reviewing existing methodologies, models and theories, and more on providing a detailed analysis of empirical traffic data anddrawing consequences regarding the minimum requirements for any traffic and transportation theories to be valid.The book- proves the empirical nucleation nature of traffic breakdown in networks- discusses the origin of the failure of classical traffic and transportation theories- shows that the three-phase theory is incommensurable with the classical traffic theories, and- explains why current state-of-the art dynamic traffic assignments tend to provoke heavy traffic congestion,making it a valuable reference resource for a wide audience of scientists and postgraduate students interested in the fundamental understanding ofempirical traffic phenomena and related data-driven phenomenology, as well as for practitioners working in the fields of traffic and transportation engineering.
